Cheap, White and Tacky

I've been desperate for some good white nail polish. I haven't actually painted my nails white since using Tippex back in the early 90s, but as it's summer, I really fancied it. I picked up a bottle of really cheap (£2.99!) white from H&M on my way home from work last night. Here's the result:

New Topshop ring and strange blue hand

Out of 5, here are my scores:

Ease of application: 2/5 (really thick and tacky - like it's a good 6 months old)
Quick dry time: 3/5
Colour: 3/5 (needed two coats just to even it out. First coat was horrendous)
Value for money: 3/5 (worth paying a bit extra for something easier to apply)

Any recommendations for a quality white? Around the £6 mark preferably.

  1. GOSH nail polishes are great, the best I've tried and only a fiver, I think. I'm not sure they do a plain white, but they do every other colour under the sun! Failing that, try Barry M.
