Kiko 361 Raspberry Pink
I’ve raved about Kiko polishes in the past, so let’s just recap very quickly shall we? So reasonably priced, beautiful colours, great two-coaters, good brushes… what’s not to like?
I got the Daniel Sandler Luxury Matte Lipstick Red Carpet in the ASOS sale ages ago and can’t believe I haven’t blogged about it already – it is a stunning, true red lipstick. Although it is a matte lipstick, it has a really great formula: smooth, moisturising (that’ll be the hyaluronic acid!) and doesn’t cling to any dry patches. Win, win, win!
The colour is really pigmented so you need to be careful with the lip line, but means that you only need one good coat straight from the bullet.
It also lasts really well and stains a little bit so that any wear that does happen is not very noticeable. I can’t wait to get more colours from this range.
You can buy Daniel Sandler lipsticks HERE.

An early Nail Art Sunday for our long weekend away!

The second installment in Nail Art Sunday is in honour of the new series of one of my new favourite TV shows: Breaking Bad.
There’s not much to say about these: it’s a green base with the green smoke of the intro and the chemical symbols on the first two nails – all hand painted, of course.
The green base shade is A-england Dragon (full review HERE) and the smoke shades are by Barry M. The white used for the chemical symbols was my trusty Natural Collections white.
Enjoy the new series, yo!

P.S. Please excuse the awful state of my skin and cuticles, I was suffering from ridiculously dry hands at this point and nothing would save them!
The hunt is over, call off the search: I have found the perfect black nail varnish. I have tried so many and they are either too thin, which means it takes ages to build to full opacity. Or they are thick and unwieldy to work with. This is just right.
Kiko 275 Black is a typical Kiko nail varnish: great coverage, high shine and quick to dry. The brushes are also some of my favourites with a fairly wide brush so they are very easy to apply. This polish gives a perfect, deep, dark black in two thin coats. It’s also very shiny but these photos are shown with Seche Vite.
You can buy this amazing polish HERE. No no no, you’re welcome!
