Hi Goddesses
There have been a few polishes to make a big splash this year, and this is one of them - the ultra blue Baker Street by Nails Inc.
Beyonce was pictured wearing it the week it came out, and then it was everywhere! Then RBL released IDK, an even bluer blue, and suddenly this was THE colour of the season.
Unfortunately Nails Inc polishes are £11 in the UK, and as I wasn't sure whether I'd like it, I asked my good friend Jessica if I could borrow hers for the weekend. And here it is - super super blue!
There is an intense electricity to this polish that is stunning. It's rich, vibrant and quivers with life .... and yet, it didn't wow me quite as much as I expected it to. Maybe it's because blue isn't my favourite child, but I did expect a little more wow.
For whatever reason, I ran out of time that weekend, otherwise I'd have skittled it with a couple of other similar polishes - for now, we'll have to make do with side by sides.
First of all, Baker Street above its predecessor, Nails Inc All Saints Road -
And now Baker Street above Barry M's Cobalt Blue
There's no doubt from the photos above that Baker Street is a brighter blue, almost neon in comparison. To me, there are some differences between them, mainly the lack of light in the other 2 compared to Baker Street, but as blue is not my true love, it wouldn't persuade me to buy all 3.
So which is your favourite? Enjoy xx :)
Baker Street does look really nice and bright but I wouldn't pay £11 when I could get a similar colour for a much cheaper price.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE BAKER STREET. And, if you order off the nails inc website you can get the colour for about 6.50 in the pic and mix offer if you buy a few other colours.. They have got their new neons and pastel 3d glitters in there. Thats how I usually get my lemmings! And they throw in a free gift if you spend over £35 which is brill - it gives you 5 mini polishes from a choice of three sets!
ReplyDeleteOR QVC offers baker street in a set which gives you 7 polishes for £25.. QVC is also quite good for nails inc and they have a 30day money back policy so you can try them out and send it back if you dont like the shades.
Also boot often has 3 for 2! On nails inc, it had it a few months back, but the nails inc website usually offers a better deal.. x
Hope this helps <3 Love Rayya :) x
lol thank you !!! super informative, AND a trip for paypday :) xx thanks
DeleteBaker Street is my favorite nail polish at the moment. To me the high price is worth it but I love blue and bright nail polish.
ReplyDeleteOut of all the blues you showed Baker Street is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI do love baker street, and I plan on owning it someday, but I agree it would be almost pointless to shell that out when you already have two fine blues that are so similar...I've really been looking out for a cheaper version of this blue for months now, but everything's too dark or too dusty..
ReplyDeletePA125 has a very similiar squishier looking color that I love so freaking much! It like Baker Street has a lot of hidden light! Totally worth it IMO they are expensive over here in the US too :/
ReplyDeleteGorgeous perfect blue!
