Here we have another reader review from Britny. Thank you, Britny for an honest and upfront post! Got to say, this one isn’t tempting me…
Well, here it is my first ever really bad GOSH colour experience. I was feeling all summery and cheery having bought my bright yellow convertible car I wanted some bright sunny nail polish, I spotted Yellow Bombay and it looked like a really nice bright yellow/gold with glitter in it. Seemed like just the thing for a nice top down drive in my car.
Oh how deceiving the bottle can be! The first coat looked like an unhealthy
urine sample and was very sheer; I thought that perhaps a couple more coats would give me the lovely bright yellow in the bottle.
After 3 coats I was sadly disappointed, the colour was still quite sheer and a bit streaky. The colour was very disappointing (in fact it would be more apt to say the colour was completely vulgar). The final colour looks like a really cheap curry sauce that has separated and gone a bit oily.
I really can’t think of anything positive to say about the colour and can’t imagine that it would look good on anyone. As for the glitter it really doesn’t show up very well at all, you have to squint and roll your fingers about to see it. I really hope the person who came up with this colour got fired because I can’t begin to fathom what possessed or inspired them to create it.
Application was unusually poor for GOSH. The polish was very watery and
runny making it hard to apply and it had a tendency to run and streak quite badly. It is also quite dull, even a layer of Seche Vite failed to make it at all shiny.
I don’t think this colour will ever see my nails again. It actually looks better in the photos than it did on my fingers. I wish I had managed to capture a shot that showed just how awful it was.
On a positive note the bottle wasn’t all sticky with tape or gloopy but then maybe that is because no one would have been mad enough to open the bottle and apply a sneaky coat of it!
