Kim K's White Nail Polish


While looking through pictures of Kim Kardashian (as you do), I noticed how much she wears white nail polish. Recently I've started wearing really pale pink polish's such as Essie Fiji and Ballet Slippers, but I've never found the right white. Ever since I seen Heidi Montag wear white nail polish on The Hills, I wanted to try it out but could never find one that went on without looking streaky.



So, after seeing Kim wearing it, went into Superdrug in search of a white nail polish. I finally settled on Models Own 'Snow White' as I have a lot of their polish's and they are a bargain at £5. It was between that and Essie 'Blanc' but decided to go for Model's Own as it was slightly cheaper and I wasn't sure if I'd like it. 
It only took two coats of the polish for it to go completely opaque and it dried reasonably quick. I like how thick this polish is without being gloopy. 

Overall, this is a really good polish and I think I'll wear white nails more often!

What's your opinion on white nail polish? Do you recommend any?

  1. I love wearing white if I'm doing some nail art on top as it's a nice blank canvas for designs :) I'm using Barry M just now but it's slightly streaky xx

  4. Wow that is a good white! I'm not sure if I would wear it alone but it's always really handy to have a good one for a base or french manicures! xx

  7. I love white nail polish! Its classic but a bit more 'out there' and noticeable. i must try the Models Own version - I had 17's 'Mini Skirt' - which is white with a bit of a shimmer - it looks really nice with a bit of a tan :)
    I also use it as a base for bright polishes as it brings out the colour even more xx

  8. I really like this post because I too have seen Kim K's nails and reconsidered wearing white, I have had it before but I can't seem to find a good formula with white nail polish!

  9. I do like white nail polish but you do need the time to apply it! I think it can look really classic - The Models Own polish looks pretty good! I do have a white polish by Priti NYC which I got as part of a set but as yet I haven't been able to apply it without making a complete mess!! x

  11. I love wearing my white polishes with a glitter top coat. I recommend staying away from Barry M Matte White - it has an awful consistency! x
