This was one of the polishes I recently picked up from Superdrug... I've been on a bit of a polish extravaganza recently for some reason, so expect a few more NOTD's (mostly drugstore..) over the next few days!
Accessorize polishes are currently only available in Superdrug, and retail at £4.50 each. They have some lovely shades, ranging from the wearable to the more unusual, so its well worth a look.
Application was fine - the chunky lid is a bit of a pain to work with, I'd personally prefer a longer handle as it gives a bit more control. The brush itself is quite short and is standard, ie not a flat/wide/"pro" style brush. Personally I don't mind that as often flat brushes are a bit too wide for my nails, especially on the little finger.
It's a polish that definitely needs two coats though - the first coat does go on quite streaky and a little patchy, but the second coat resolves all that.
Wear is pretty average - I noticed some chipping on day 2 of wear, which isn't amazing, so frankly I'd be a little disappointed if I'd paid more for it... I would pick up more from this range though, especially the more unusual shades.
Have you tried any of these polishes?
Would love your thoughts!

Looks like a perfect 'mannequin hand' shade. I have a purple one...can't remember it's name but there's pics on my blog somewhere. Currently have my eye on some of the glittery ones :)
nothing ground breaking for a colour but still sooooo pretty, and clean and polished, love it xx

PS. It's difficult to comment for me because I don't have the open ID and with Google not sure if you will understand that's me :) x
@Liloo - yes, I agree, not groundbreaking, just clean looking, and you need stuff like that sometimes lol!
@Marina - Thanks you so much! I actually feel my nails have been looking quite bad lately so you just cheered me right up!
I haven't tried any of their polishes, i may go to Accessories tho and try this one or a darker one. Right now im wearing chanel paradoxal :P
I really need to have a proper look at this range! I glanced at it a few weeks ago and it all looked lovely! I agree with Liloo that its not a "groundbreaking" colour but it looks lovely!!!

This colour is gorgeous on you. From the few colours I've bought I think the quality varies a little between shades but generally it is ok. The colours definitely make me want to get more though.
Very classy!
That colour is fab!!
I love fudge, but I'd never have thought it would look so nice as a nail colour. I love understated elegant tones so I may have to go investigate!
