Models Own Mirrorball Collection

Ever since the press shots were released for this collection a couple of weeks back, I've been hyped up for it. They were released a few days early at their "Bottle Shop" in Westfield West London, so as I was there I thought I would take a look.
Models own describe them as "nail frostings" I think they are more of a 3D glitter but hey each to their own.

There are 5 different colours in the collection with disco themed names hence Mirrorball:

Hot Stuff - A coral pink and gold
Freak Out - Electric blue and hot pink
Dancing Queen - Green, gold and blue
Disco Inferno - Gold, copper and green

I opted for "Boogie Nights" which is purple, blue and hot pink.

Now the problem I have with this collection is that looking at the bottle it looks like a complete colour, it isn't. It is just the flecks of glitter within a clear polish.
In order to wear it on its own you would have to put on quite a few coats to achieve a wall to wall gitter look.

As a topcoat over a similar colour it works really well and brings an extra something to a standard manicure.

Here i'm wearing it over Essie's "Sure Shot"

I have to admit that I'm a little disappointed by the Mirrorball collection, I love Models Own normal glitters and really had high hopes for this but it just falls a bit flat for me, this is one that I won't be replacing.
