Models Own HyperGel Nail Polish (Shade: Cerise Shine)*
£4.99
Gel effect nail polishes are all the rage these days and I’ve well and truly jumped on that bandwagon because in my eyes, when it comes to nail polish, the shinier the better! As you can see from the photo above, Models Own HyperGel gives a beautiful, super glossy finish, it’s impressive!
I have it in the shade Cerise Shine, which is actually a colour from the original collection which launched last year. I can’t comment on the other shades in the HyperGel collection because I have found Models Own formulas to be quite hit and miss depending on which shade you go for, but Cerise Shine is smooth and opaque making it a dream to apply. It’s non-streaky and you only need one or two coats. I don’t know why but it never feels right to apply just one coat so I went for two to get the full coverage!
It was touch-dry in a about 2 minutes and I could apply the second coat after 5 minutes. It was chip resistant for 4-5 days but the shine did fade a bit. I didn’t apply a top coat because it didn’t look like I needed to but I would recommend using a glossy top coat to seal the polish and make the shine last longer. I really love the Essie top coats for a high shine, they dry so quickly too.
Models Own HyperGel launched last year, and they have added 10 new shades as part of the Spring collection. I quite like the look of Tropical Green and Caribbean Crush – they will look AMAZING in the Summer time! No UV is required and you can achieve that gel effect nails in ten minutes in the comfort of your own home! You can find HyperGel at Boots and ASOS, and retails at £4.99 per bottle and comes in a total of 31 shades!

I love Model's Own's Hyper Gel range, but the colours I have are winter colours. I adore this shade – it's perfect for sunny weather!

I think my favourite of the new shades is purple orchid! I've yet to try it out yet though.

As of yet I'm still to try this formula from Models Own although after having quite a large nail polish clear out today (it was a long time coming) I think I can squeeze one into my collection now. The shade you have featured looks beautiful although I'm tempted by powder blue and purple orchid.

Lovely colours. I got some Models Own nail polishes at the clothes show and I just find them a bit gloopy and thick to put on. Shame though as their colours are amazing! Victoria xx thedaisyjaynes.com
I have some friends who do their own nails and it looks like they went to a salon and got it properly done. I, on the other hand, have no such skill, but these polishes seem really easy to use, so maybe there's still hope for me yet! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
This sounds great! I love that pink shade you're wearing, such a good one for summer x

That shade is gorgeous. I love it. Gel effect polishes are my favourites currently. I find they typically last a little longer too.
