HHHHEEEELLLLPPP - where can I get a proper neon pink nail varnish?

Proper neon, fluorescent (sp?), highlighter pink nail varnish

There's lots of hot pinks, fuscia, coral, etc but nothing really neon, highlighter pink.

Friend of mine had her nails done and they used one from China Glaze, but she couldn't remember the shade of it (some people are so unhelpful Wink). I've looked on line but can't tell which is the right one.

Really reluctant to spend money buying another 4, 5, 6, 7... bottles that are just going to be discarded onto the growing pile of not-neon-pink bottles.

Maybe I should just give up and colour them in with a Stabilo Boss and be done with it!

I have one from W7 which is fluro pink. Will have a look when I get home for the shade name/number. Try Models Own or a cheap brand like Stargazer (?)

Don't Barry M do neon shades?

AMcoffeeLover · 01/07/2015 13:13

Barry M, the best is in the gelly shine range

I got a lovely neon pink in my free Clinique gift bag.

Home Bargins is doing nail varnish that really does actually glow in the dark.

I've been looking for the perfect one for a couple of years and my favourite so far is Illamasqua Collide.It stays shiny and goes on well,lovely colour too.None of the others I have come anywhere close.

Marylou2 · 01/07/2015 14:10

By the way ,forgot to say the China Glaze your friend has is probably Shocking Pink.It's certainly a highlighter colour but it's a pain to apply.3 thin coats and loads of patience and topcoat required!Smile .

MooMinCow · 01/07/2015 14:36

Well rather unhelpfully there is no sticker with shade name or number but I think it's this one

MooMinCow · 01/07/2015 14:38

It's the first of the 2 pinks no.14

They say to apply neon over a base of white to get the proper neon effect

madamweasel · 01/07/2015 19:13

I got one from Essie

MaudieAtkinsonsGardeningHat · 01/07/2015 19:58

Brilliant! Thank you. Have been scarily and obsessively searching for at least 3 years

Will give them a try Smile

I have that w7 one and it is proper fluoro pink, everyone comments on it

Discworld101 · 01/07/2015 21:33

Claire's Accessories also do a good neon pink.

nickdrakeslovechild · 01/07/2015 21:43

My first thought was the w7 one, it's so bright, not seen a fluorescent one as good. And yes to the white base.

AllPizzasGreatAndSmall · 01/07/2015 21:52

I've just applied China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy, it's neon coral ,The pink in the same range is Pool Party.

Skinheadmermaid · 01/07/2015 22:13

Models own have several. The brightest one is called bubblegum. Its the ice neon collection.

Skinheadmermaid · 01/07/2015 22:14

this one

TheBabyFacedAssassin · 01/07/2015 22:17

Another vote for Models Own - I have the fluoro pink in it (and the yellow and the orange Blush)and they are properly bright!! They look fab on toes of tanned feet!
