MAC Surf Baby Hangin' Loose

hangin loose

This is a gorgeous beigey nude with subtle shimmer and a super glossy finish, and at the moment this is my favourite nude, it's just gorgeous!
.
Like Ocean Dip, the formula is runny, thick and goes on streaky. You need to shake the bottle before use to reduce the wateriness, and you need about 3 coats to get it even. Drying time due to these points is very poor. This is a hassle but I love the colour so much for nude looks or french manicures, that I will deal with the cons.
.
I also love the packaging, makes it just that little bit different. :]

MAC Surf Baby Ocean Dip

This is a gorgeous nail varnish! It is a teal colour, which I have lots of eyeshadows this colour, but not really many nail varnishes, so I definitely had to add this to my collection.
.
After the great formula from the Wonder Woman Nail varnishes, I am pretty disappointed with this formula! It is so thick, but goes on uneven and streaky, so it is a nightmare at times to work with. It is pigmented, but due to it being uneven, I needed 3 coats. I'd also advise you shake the bottle before application or it is a little watery (at least my bottle was!)
.
Because you need to apply so much and because it is quite thick it takes a while to dry, which is infuriating as I am impatient. I kept smudging it :[
.
The colour is gorgeous and it is a lovely glossy colour, however the formula has taken a step back considering the Wonder Woman and Quite Cute ones. I like the packaging, but that doesn't make up for the annoying formula! I love the colour so much I would deal with the hassle of application.
