BB Couture - Full Metal Jacket


This polish was a total surprise to me. I was expecting the finish to be glossy. However, it dried to a satin finish. It is a good compromise between matte and glossy. I think it is a great polish for a guy to wear. It isn't flashy, but it has plenty of shimmer to it. The formula is terrific, it almost was a one coat polish. Two coats and it looked great. Full Metal Jacket is a polish I would feel comfortable wearing anywhere. I've decided to wear this to work tomorrow. I will post any feedback I get tomorrow night. I am really committed to becoming as comfortable with my nails painted as I am with my toes. I really hope to find a women that is accepting of my polish addiction. 

This polish, in my opinion, proves that a polish can be manly. BB Couture for Men polishes have more than just guy inspired names; they have the man in mind when developing the colors.

PS, Sorry if there are any grammatical errors, I usually have my daughter looking over my shoulder to correct me. It can be annoying, but I love her anyway.

  1. Nice color. To be honest, I kinda want it just for the name. I'm curious how your work will respond - I'll be waiting for an update! Hope it all goes well. I think you picked a good one to wear - nice color but not too flashy.

    1. No one said anything all day. Either they don't care or are afraid to piss me off. I thought for sure one of the nurses would comment. Maybe if I wore Manglaze Lesbi-honest I would get a reaction!

    2. That's slightly disappointing. What's up with that? I guess no reaction is better than a bad one... I second wearing Lesbi-honest and daring them to say something!

    3. I wore Manglaze Nawsome Sauce on Friday. I was by the nurses station and asked to borrow a pen. They asked who painted my nails. I told them my daughter did. I should have told them that I did. That led us to a conversation about being a single dad with a teenage daughter with no mom in her life; all of which is true. They then teased me that the clinical coordinator is available! So it went better than I expected.

  2. Seriously a woman who doesn't want you because you wear nail polish is not the woman for you or honestly anyone. We all adorn ourselves in different ways to be pleasing to the opposite sex or I guess even the same sex in some cases and nail polish is just another adornment.

    I'm not loving this one as the Gigolo but it does look really good on your nails!

    1. I agree, they have to be into polish. I want a woman to share my love of polish with, not hide it from.

  3. I really like how it looks! I also was surprised about the finish. I was expecting a shiny but its not.
    I also agree that a woman doesn't need to know who painted your nails unless they are asking where did you get your polish! That is a way better question to ask I think..

    1. Your right Kim, That would be ideal. The focus should be on the polish and not who is wearing or painting them. I am trying to get my nails in better shape so they look better in pictures. The peeling has gotten better now that I use Avoplex cuticle oil on them at least once a day.
