NOTD- Rimmel Disco Ball and Black Cab

Hello everyone,
I bought both of these nail varnishes on Wednesday, and because we aren't allowed to wear nail varnish to school I have been waiting patiently very impatiently until I got home today to paint my nails with them! (I'm sad, I know)
The colours which I used were Rimmel's Black Cab and Disco Ball.
As the name suggests, Disco Ball is very shimmery and glittery. There is some slight variation with the sizes of the glitter chunks, but they are all fairly fine pieces.
(I know it's out of focus but I just wanted to show the glitter)
As you can see, Disco Ball is very glittery and reflective. I only had to do two coats of it on my nails for it to be very glittery, which is much fewer than I was expecting from my past experiences! The polish itself is clear, but it is very glittery with pieces of mainly silver, but also blue and purple pieces in it. As I said above the glitter is all small pieces, but there is a slight variation with the sizes of them. I can't comment on it's staying power because I have only had it on half an hour, but each coat dried very quickly which I was also shocked at!
As you can see, this one isn't nearly as exciting as Disco Ball, but because I had almost run out of my black one from OPI, I needed to get myself another black nail polish! The name is Black Cab, which I think is really cute considering Rimmel is a brand from London. It took two coats to become completely opaque but it was really creamy and glossy after two coats.
They are currently on offer for 3 for 2 in Tesco which is where I got mine (I also got Misty Jade which I haven't tried out yet) and I believe they were around £2.50 each, so I got all three for a fiver which is really good!

I am really enjoying them so far, I can't wait to wear the Misty Jade and buy some more Rimmel polishes. I already have a few other colours, but I really want to try out Rimmel's Hot & Spicy, which is a bight red/pink/orange colour which I think would be great for summer!

Thankyou for reading this and have a lovely day
