Technic Nail Varnish

Technic Nail Varnish




So for my birthday maybe 1-2 years ago I got 5 nail polishes in really pretty colours by Technic from my older sister. I had never really got round to trying all the colours to be honest but I found them all last week and thought I would try them all out.

Arctic Ice

This is a really pretty icy blue/green colour with purple undertones and little shimmers which looked really nice on my nails. I found that I could get a colour as solid as this after around 3-4 thin coats of the colour. If you want a more sheer colour, I would use 1-2 coats as it still looks really pretty but is also very subtle.

Orchid Mist

Again, this light pink colour was very shimmery on the nails however this colour only required 2-3 coats to get a nice solid colour. It also looks really nice as a sheer wash of pink over the nails after 1 thin coat but I preferred it a bit more solid.

Persian Rose

After around 2-3 coats, I could build a pretty pink/red colour with this polish but apply another coat or two and you can achieve a deep red which I love! This colour doesn't have any shimmer in it but is great as it is very buildable.



Kool Kiwi

This colour is really different to colours I would normally choose to wear. It is a really bright green colour which takes around 5-6 coats to get a good solid colour like mine which is a bit of a pain but looks really nice once it's on. The colour looks quite gold once it's on but I love it.

Turkish Sea

This denim blue colour only took around 2 coats for a nice solid colour like this. I love the subtle shimmers in this colour and I love how it looks quite metallic once it's on your nails. I also found that this colour was very buildable.


Overall I love these colours and found them all to be pretty sheer but very buildable! The downside to these polishes is that they take a really long time to dry but its worth it! After using a top and base coat (17 Clear Lasting Fix Nail Polish), I found that the nail polishes would last for 1-2 days before beginning to chip slightly.

I reccomend all of these colours but if I had to choose one I would probably go with Arctic Ice because the colour is really different and pretty. I'm really sorry about how messy my nails are painted, I  h a t e  painting them! xo
