2True New Products

Everyone likes a bargain, especially a 3 for £5 bargain, which is the 'permanent' deal that 2True offer in Superdrug. I was pleasantly surprised when I got a package through the letterbox last week with some of the new 2True products in to test out and review. Especially as theres some very handy dupes in there.



First up are these nail polishes. The one to the left is shade 45 and it's a lovely shimmering gold. The one to the right is shade 46 and it is a perfect dupe for Chanel's Paradoxal and Barry M's Dusky Mauve. The only difference is they are a lot cheaper and you can have three of these for £5. I'm yet to try these but I will definately let you know when I do!


This polish is in slightly different packaging as it is one of their 'Colour quick' polishes in shade 9. It has been developed with a new flat brush, which I really liked. I only needed one coat and it gave a thick opaque colour, no need for another coat. It leaves your nails very glossy. The only downside is the drying time which is 5 minutes+ and it did still smudge after, I am very impatient when it comes to letting my nails dry!



Shade 9 is a great dupe for Barry M's Mushroom and Eyeko's Posh Polish.


I also have two of their lipsticks, to the left is shade 5 which is a deep fuchsia and to the right is shade 1 which is a bright red. 



Left: shade 5, right: shade 1

I do really like these lipsticks, they are very bold and daring. They are by no means sheer and come out very pigmented and creamy, not drying at all. They have a strong vanilla smell and do stain the lips slightly making sure that the colour lasts longer. 


Last but not least is their Easy Glide Kohl Pencil, which is hands down my favourite product that they sent me. I was all set to re purchase the Urban Decay 24/7 pencil in Zero until I tried this. I am very fussy with eye pencils and unless it glides on in a bold black colour I'm not interested. I have lots of Kohl Pencils in my drawer that have been tossed aside because they aren't soft or bold enough, but I love this one. It glides on very smoothly in a bold black colour that doesn't budge. I put this on once in the morning and when I came home it was still there, which is exactly what I want. I will definitely re purchase this product and it will be in my May favourites!


2True also have an offer on at the moment- buy 3 of their products from Superdrug and get a free lipgloss of your choice, offer ends on 7th June. 

Let me know what you think of 2True or send me some links to your reviews!

  1. Ooh I love 2True's nail polishes, I find that some of the Glossywear polishes (the short round bottles) can be quite sheer, if you have this problem with the two you have, try layering them as the sheer ones I have look FABULOUS over dark colours! xxx
