Black Cat Seventeen Gel Nails

Black nails are kind of my go to colour.  You can't really go wrong with them and they look so sleek in my opinion.  I had the absolute disaster of my black nail polish running out last week and I was desperate to find a replacement.  I was keen to get a gel polish as they tend to last a little longer and have a more 'finished' look so off to Boots I went.  With it being Christmas time and all I was hoping to find one that wouldn't break the bank either.  I was having no such luck with finding a polish that matched my criteria until I stumbled upon the Seventeen range and found the shade Black Cat, it was a gal polish, black as night and only £3.99, everything I was looking for!  

Seventeen isn't a nail brand I'd used before so I was eager to give this a go.  The polish is really opaque and smooth.  It glides on the nail without being too clumpy or runny.  You could probably get away with just one coat on too, but I always do two, I feel a bit strange doing my nails with just one coat... Just me?  And the colour is a perfect black that doesn't come out looking a bit off grey.  It states on the bottle you get 8 days wear out of the polish, now while I haven't had it on for a whole 8 days I can vouch that it is durable.  Yes, I had a few chips after a few days but for under £4 what can you expect really and even at that it's just little scuffs from me being a klutz.  Overall, this is a great polish for a go to black and definitely one I would recommend.
