H&M - Navy Cosmos: part 1


Hi everyone! For this post I have the red part of H&M's Navy Cosmos to show you. Like with H&M Plum it wasn't so much the color that I fell for, but the super sweet bottle! I couldn't resist the red and blue with the polka dots in the middle, even when I actually hate these narrow bottles with a polish on both ends. They're difficult to store, difficult to polish with because of the extra weight at the top, but boy they sure look cute!

The red creme of this polish duo is very vibrant, almost neon-like I'd say. The formula was a little bit goopy, but still manageable, needing two coats to cover. I know it's not the most unique color out there, but I like it nonetheless. It's a lot brighter than I expected it to be and I can't wait to wear it for summer! ^^

  9. I was so close to buying this. In the end I left it in the store. I'm glad I did. Yes, the colors are pretty, but not that original. I probably have something like it in my stash already. The thing that would probably bother me the most is the double bottle. Pretty, but that's it.

  11. Does it look red in real life? I find it looks orange. I hope you're going to swatch the blue one too :) It looks nice!

  12. I saw this at the store and I considered buying it but i decided no. As cute as the bottle is to look at I couldn't get because of the very things you mentioned... and that shade of red would look blah on me.

  14. Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts! I see many of you were strong enough to leave it in stores unlike me haha. ;-)

    @LittleMonsterx14: That would be a great idea! :-D Only I've already did some nail art with it, which I'll show in my next post ;-)

    @fyeahilovenails: It certainly is a red, but in certain lights it has a slight hint of orange.

    @Eris Tunney: Thank you ^^

  15. Hello Jane,

    this looks so great on you! It would clash terribly with my skin tone, though.

    I have a tag for you over on my blog! I hope you enjoy it :) (And I hope you don't mind to be tagged twice, lol.
