If you're like me, then you will probably have hundreds (that is maybe a slight over exaggeration) of nail polishes that you have either never opened or have had them for so long you're not too sure what state they are in. (Quick tip: if you put your nail vanishes in the fridge it helps them stay in their normal liquid form, rather then clumping up and becoming unusable).
I wasn't fortunate enough to go to the last Clothes Show Live, but my sisters were and thankfully they brought me back some goodie bags. One of which contained a colour wheel. Before that I had never really taken notice of what one is or why people use them - I thought it was just for salons so they can show customers the colours they have.
However, I figured that I should use it because I know that some nail polishes are a slightly different colour to what they look in the bottle. What I never figured out is that by painting the polish on one of the 'nails' of the colour wheel, not only do you see what the colour is truly is, but you can also see how smoothly the paint goes on and how thick it is. This helps when you have polishes that you haven't use for a while and you want too see what state they are in before applying to the nail. And for new polishes, the colour wheel can help you see the true outcome of the polish.
The only thing I would want differently is the colour wheel to be white or 'nail colour' (whatever that is) instead of clear as you don't get a true representation of what it really looks like on real nails. However, this can be easily solved by putting the colour of your choice against an un-polished nail.
