MUA All Nude

I am hunting high and low for a cream polish, which one would think would be relatively easy to find, but it seems not.  Today I have probably the closest contender to what I am looking for so far and for the bargain price of £1 from Superdrug's MUA range.
 
The bottles have been redesigned recently and look a bit like mini Essie bottles which is quite cute, and they're still just £1 each so very easy on the pocket.
 
Here's All Nude

 
As you can see it's an off white cream colour.  I really like the crisp bright look it gives and it looks like it will be an ideal base for stamping over, it's also lacking in the pink colour that seems to feature in most pale nude shades I've found, which is a good thing, in my view.

 
Unfortunately, it has one of the worse formulas I have used in some time, this is 4 coats, the first one split and streaked and barely covered at all, it was like I had oil on my nails!  After 4 coats it does even out and look pretty lovely but it's definitely not one for a quick manicure!

  1. I've been searching for a cream as well! Who would have thought it'd be so hard?? I picked up this polish - the little fake Essie bottles are adorable, but it's still a little on the white side for me. I think I might just go for OPI My Vampire is Buff.

    1. That's so funny, I was looking at My Vampire is Buff yesterday and wondering if I should buy it! It does look like it could be a lovely cream shade.

  2. I agree that My Vampire Is Buff is an excellent cream colour, but if you're looking for value, see if you can find Mousseline from Sally Hansen (Complete Salon Manicure collection). I got mine a while ago in Poundland, but sometimes Fragrance Direct have some.

    1. Good call, I'll keep my eye out for that one, I'd much rather have a bargain cream than shell out for a full price OPI.
