Recently I had the opportunity to attend an event with Wet n' Wild where I had the chance to play with all sorts of their products. I have a few more posts to share, but first, the products that I am probably the most excited about: 1 Step Wonder Gel Nail Polish. 1 Step comes in 18 different colours ranging from gorgeous nudes to bold brights.

Described as "the first gel formula that doesn't require a top coat and cures without a lamp", they claim that 1 Step provides up to 2 weeks of colour and shine in "1 easy step".

So let's look at what this product claims: Up to 2 weeks of colour and shine, no UV light, no harsh removal, and 3-Free (Formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates). It is easy to confirm that no UV light as required as the polish was applied to my nails at the event, and check, no light. As for harsh removal? Well to swatch all the polishes that you are about to see, it was easy to remove as any polish. You can confirm that it is 3-Free here. So, all that is really left to consider is wear time. I have worn two of these polishes in my regular day-to-day life (Stay Classy and Pale in Comparison) and found that each lasted a good 4-5 days with out any chips or signs of wear. I bet you could get a few more days out of it, but I like to change up my nails and I like to keep my polish looking perfect. While I did not experience 2 weeks of wear, I was still quite happy with the results.

Wet N Wild Fergie Nail Polish Swatches And Review

While this collection has 18 colours I only have 10 to share with you today. I suppose I could have grabbed one of each colour, but I preferred to just pick the colours I was more likely to wear!

Overall, I was pretty happy with this polish. By far, my favourite name was "Bye Feluschia!" but in terms of colours I was much more drawn to "Stay Classy", "Pale in Comparison" and "Condensed Milk". All photos feature two coats of the polish, properly dried. I like that most of the names are either punny or sassy, both of which I approve of!

These polishes retail for $4.99 USD (So probably about $6 in Canada) and are availiable at all the usual drug stores that you would expect!

Wondrously Polished: Wet N Wild, 1 Step Wonder Gel: Swatches & Review

The other colours available are: It's Sher-Bert Day, Crime of Passion, Lavender Out Loud, Peri-wink-le of an Eye, Cyantific Method, Left Marooned, Under My Plum, Power Outage.I attended a Wet N Wild event a few weeks ago, where I was introduced to the new Wet N Wild 1-Step Wonder Gel Polish. This is the first ever 1-step gel polish from the brand and it promises to provide up to 2 weeks of colour and shine. This is perfect for the busy girl on the go, that doesn’t have time to hit up the nail salon weekly or fuss with regular nail polish at home. This new superhero is the first, true, 1-step gel formula that’s developed with reactive technology, similar to that used in dental veneers, to provide salon-quality gel manicure at home. Not only does it require no UV light, it also doesn’t require a top coat… amazing!

Wet N Wild 1-Step Wonder Gel comes in a black opaque bottle, which means you’re unable to see the colour selection within, but this helps the light-cured formula within. It has a rich and creamy formula that applied seamlessly to the nailbed in a single stroke. It comes with a slightly larger brush than I’m used to, which effortlessly covers the entire nail bed in a swipe or two. It features a highly pigmented formula that provides true opaque coverage in a single coat. Not only is it chip resistant, it’s formulated without any formaldehyde, toluene and phthalates, ensuring it’s safe enough for daily use. It “promises” to provide up to 2 weeks of gorgeous colour and intense shine without fading or chipping. Although it offers a long-lasting staying power, it’s easy to take off with just a regular nail polish remover.

I’ve tried so many at-home gel polishes, two step programs, and as much as I adore them, these Wet N Wild 1-Step Wonder Gel are so much better. I’m obsessed with the fact I don’t have to apply a top coat, cause let’s get real, no one’s got time for that. I can barely wait the five minutes it takes to dry from the initial coat, let alone wait another 5 to 10 minutes for a top coat to set and dry. Although it promises high shine, I find each shade to run a little flat and dull. If you’re looking for that high-gloss, shiny finish, you may want to apply a glossy top coat? And as far as staying power, although I didn’t experience the full 2 weeks as promised, it did last a solid 5+ days before chipping, which is a lot longer than most polishes. The majority of the colours are extremely pigmented, however, if you’re looking for true opaque coverage, you’re going to want to apply a second coat.
