Mavala Metropolitan nail polish collection review

The Metropolitan collection* is the latest release from Mavala, and has to be one of my favourites! It features six, multi-tonal polishes, in a range of gorgeous metallic shades.

The range features (L-R in swatches above): 

Gold Bronze - gold base with bronze undertones
Copper Violet - violet with copper accents
Emerald Gold - green with gold undertones
Silver Chrome - molten silver
Pink Gold - a rose gold hue
Metallic Blue - ultra violet metallic blue

Each of the polishes reflects in the light, showing off their duochrome finishes. All needed two coats to be opaque, and went on pretty smoothly. I did find that Silver Chrome was a tiny bit streaky, but that's often the way with metallic silver polishes. Just use a little extra care when applying it, and you should be fine. 

All of the polishes use Mavala's trusty '5-free' formula, and last a good couple of days without any chipping. Each bottle is 5ml and costs £4.75. You can find Mavala in John Lewis, larger Boots stores and online. 

I think this is a fab collection and the range of colours makes it something that will work throughout spring and summer, right through to the autumn. 

What's your favourite shade from this collection?
