Hello lovelies,

I've received a surprise package from Models Own with a selection of polishes from their new Diamond Luxe Collection! It's been kept secret so hopefully it's a nice surprise ;)

Today I'll show you just the bottle shots of the polishes I got and I'll post swatches and review very soon.

Hello lovelies,

 

Italian brand KIKO has released a new collection called Daring Game and the collection also includes six nail polishes. The nail polishes are called 'Poker Nail Lacquer' and each has a square white lid with dice-style dots on the top. The collection itself is inspired by 'the smart, quick-witted and beautiful Bond Girls'.

 

Today's nail art features three KIKO shades and I've decided to do gradient stripe design...

I have used three shades from the Daring Game collection - 01 Prestigious Taupe, 02 Irresistible Orchid and 04 Intuition Wine. Unfortunately KIKO doesn't name their polishes on the bottles, they only have numbers. I found these names on their website.

 

I've painted the stripes with striper and long detailing brush so they are not all perfect. It also took ages to finish so I don't think I'll be doing this anytime soon again!

"The exciting game of seduction begins. Luxurious and sophisticated atmospheres reflect the style of those who have the courage to gamble on their own beauty: an elegant queen of hearts who is sure of herself. The colours are vivid and full-bodied, the trump card for bold make-up. Light and shadow alternate to enhance the features, correct shapes and give maximum emphasis to femininity and character."

 

KIKO Daring Game collection is available online at www.kikocosmetics.com and in KIKO stores since mid-August 2014.

 

So what do you think? Would you wear this stripy gradient nail art? Lucie x
