NOTD: HM Bad Temper

Todays NOTD is H&M Bad Temper. This is a deep dark and juicy purple shimmer shade, me like ;) Application was a little tricky, I had some drag issues so I had to use a very light hand, but other than that nothing serious.
The swatches are three coats with Seche Vite on top.

Indirect sunlight...




Have you tried any H&M polishes? If so; how did you like them?

See you soon ;)

Loving this dark purple shade! I have never tried H&M, I think I have only seen this brand recently on a few blogs. Where is it available at?

Phyrra said...

I LOVE this color!
I looove purple.
I've never heard of H&M.

Maja and Sussi said...

I loove their holos they have so great coverage. Especially Sinful Senorita and Mad about you :D

Maja and Sussi said...

H&M is a clothing chain. their website is www.hm.com

Helen said...

Hi Brooke!
I like it as well! As Maja & Sussi said H&M is a Swedish clothing chain with stores worldwide. (they open up new ones all the time) Check out their website on www.hm.com. Maybe there is a store near you?

Helen said...

Hi Phyrra! Oh, I know you love purple, girl :) And I have become a purple lover too :)
I think H&M are constantly expanding with new stores, but with the economy situation being as it is at the moment, who knows.. As has been already mentioned, check out their site for availability; these polishes are worth picking up :)

Helen said...

Hi Maja & Sussi!
I have actually planned to pick up one or two of their holos when going into town tomorrow :) Great to hear the coverage is good!
Thanks for stopping by :)

Another polish I haven't tried!! Love the deep color. It reminds of an eggplant shade! BTW,the pic of your daughter is so sweet. Everytime I come to your blog and see the little side picture of her,it just makes me smile. My little girl is 8years old now. I guess not so little anymore!Lol!

I have an H&M that I visit frequently. I always go for their hair stuff, earrings, and accessories, but I have NEVER seen polishes there! Maybe I'm skipping over them? I don't know how I could be though, they should be in that area.
Anyways, great color!

Hi Vanessa! I'm loving that deep dark purple. I love the purples also. Your baby is so sweet, God Bless her. I've heard of H&M but haven't tried any of their polishes.

Jag har en radda med HM-lack, bland annat Bad Temper. Men inget av det lila skimret framträdde på mina naglar! Det var platt mörklila, i alla ljus... På insidan av glaset i flaskan kan man se det dock!
Det var hursomhelst väldigt snyggt på dig!

Helen said...

Hi Velvet!
It really does look somewhat eggplant-y :)
Thank you for the sweet commenting on my daughter; she makes me smile as well. Every day. I'd die for her! You know that feeling, being a mom yourself :) I bet my daughter will turn 8 before I know it; time flies...


Hi Nessa!
That's odd; you'd think they should have the polishes as well as their other stuff, wouldn't you? But, I don't see how you'd skip over them either..
Ask them about it next time you visit ;)


Hi Lucy!
Glad you like the polish, it is gorgeous, but perhaps not very spring-y. Well, one couldn't just post pastels just because it's spring..? ;)
Thank you for the blessings, blessings to you too!


Hej Marie!
Tack snälla; jag kanske hade ren tur som fick med skimret på bild? ;)

Nixxy said...

Wow - that is luscious! So smooth and glossy! Never heard of H&M. Off to google it...:)

Helen said...

Hi Nixxy!
Thank you :) You can read some info re H&M on the comments above, but I'm sure you've Googled it already ;) I'm almost positive those polishes have the nasties in the formula, though... :(
Love your new avatar!!

Maja and Sussi said...

Hi Vanessa.. I live in denmark so we have H&M's everywhere. I also have a bright blue polish from H&M. It's called Enchantress Emma. I can really recommend it if you like blues. :D

♥ Nehs ♥ said...

wow! pretty!

Helen said...

Hi Maja and Sussi!
Cool, I'll be sure to remember to look for it :)

Hi Nehs!
Isn't it? :)

The Pretty Brown Girl said...

I didn't even know H&M had polishes. I've never seen any, but that may be only because they're not in the U.S. stores.

This color is gorgeous. I love really darks and really brights. I wonder if I'll ever find a middle ground! LOL! :)

Helen said...

Hi TPBG!
Bummer those polishes are not in the US stores... Perhaps they will be eventually. Darks and brights have become really appealing to me too, I was more of that natural nail color gal before. Not anymore! :)
