Max Factor Max Effect Polishes - The Only Minis I'll be Sporting this Summer!

Available in 18 vibrant colours housed in gorgeous ickle bottles, Max Factor mini polishes are a great way to quickly update your look or complement your outfit du jour. Available online or from Boots for just €5, there's no excuse really not to pick up the colours that tickle your fancy or get a little adventurous with nail art or an ombre effect mani.

The good folks at Max Factor have sent me out some of these little lovelies for review but how about some pictures first, eh?

And some swatches? 

Max Effect Mini Polish Swatches Summer 2012

I'm really liking these little dudes. The teeny brushes make handling and polish application more controlled for the slightly cack handed amongst us *raises hand*. Each colour reaches full opacity in two coats and these swatches are done without top coat to show you the high shine finish. Nice, eh? 

Lacquer Noir is one of the glossiest blacks I've used, Candy Blue will be a Summer favourite of mine and looks fabulous on toes. Cappuccino reminds me a lot of Ciaté Bon Bon, Pretty in Pink is, eh, pretty pastel peach and Fantasy Fire is worn here over Purple Haze and I'm in the Love with it. It's a stunner in the sunshine and the perfect choice for those who like a touch of glitter but less in yo' face.

Expect to see a lot more of these lovelies in upcoming Summer nail art posts. Have picked up a mini or two yet?
