5 best nail polishes for under £10

We’re big fans of painted nails here at Westfield HQ. We’re always up for trying out the latest shades and brands. We have even been known to try out a new polish at our desks (sshhh, don’t tell!).

If you’re looking for a new nail polish and you don’t want to spend a fortune, we’ve discovered some great brands which won’t break the bank. We recommend them for colour, easy application and they’ll last you for at least a weekend. Best of all, they all cost under £10. We reckon that some of these are equal to, if not better than, some of the much more expensive nail polishes around.

So if you like to update your nail polish to match your latest outfit, we suggest you give these nail polishes a go. They have great new season colours too. Look out for autumnal hues and this season’s nudes and steely greys in particular.

Left to right: Topshop Nails in Cloud, £6; Essie nail polish in Chubby Cheeks, Debenhams £8.95; Rimmel 60 Seconds nail polish in Pompous, Superdrug £3.49; Rituals nail polish in Late Night Ruby, £7.90; Max Factor Max Colour Effects in Red Carpet Glam, Boots £3.95.

Rituals nail polish

Beauty Review: Rituals long-lasting nail varnish in Smart Rose

Price: £7.90
Available from: Rituals

What it claims to do:
Long-lasting nail varnish enriched with the power and shine of gemstones. 
Intense, shiny colours based on pure gemstones. 
Enriched with the hardest gemstone Ruby, ideal for strengthening your nails.
Easy to apply in one movement.

What the reviewer said:
This really is long lasting and surprisingly chip-resistant. I actually asked the manicurist at La Monde nails to use it as my colour for that day and she was also impressed with how it went on. Personally, I did not love the colour as it was very pink and had a touch of the Pat Butcher about it! I was really impressed with how it long it lasted though – at least a week.

Final verdict
I would definitely use a Rituals nail polish again, but I’d like to try another colour.

Heidi Klum’s Bathtime Secret

You have to hand it to Heidi Klum – she’s a TV presenter, supermodel and a mother to four kids – yet she always looks amazing and full of energy. Well, now we think we may have unearthed the gorgeous German’s secret!

 We’ve found out that she’s a huge fan of Rituals, a natural range of beauty products, with one of her favourites being their Energy Bubbles Moisturising Cream Bath. This gorgeous smelling bath soak containing Gingseng and Chinese peony, makes your skin feel instantly softer and silkier, so we can see why Heidi is a fan.

The good news for us equally busy non-celebrities however, is the price. It’s only £9.90, which means you can indulge in a little A-list luxury in the comfort of your own home without breaking the bank. Rituals products are available in Ritual stores throughout the UK, as well as in certain department stores.
