Kiko 296

Hello everyone!

Here is the second Kiko cream I've got, it's Kiko 296!
Such a daring pop green! Though it's not a neon, it can easily be seen from very far! Not for the shy :) 
I've worn this however on a Friday (oh yeah, holy Friday wear!) and nobody missed it :). But now everyone from the work kinda got used to my extravagance when it comes to nails. Nevertheless, there are some colours I wouldn't wear at work... (e.g. : glitters and neons).
 
The application for this one was perfect, the formula is excellent, the drying time ok, like for most creams. I must add the fact that there are no traces of streaks. I've noticed that a lot big names in the nail polish business don't do anymore the good cream formulas they've once did...

Back to Kiko 296:
Here I used 2 coats of Kiko, no top coat:








I thought green looks very good in company of black.. I've asked Ghitzou for a "paw" of help with that :) :




With flash:




Finally, I gave it a try with the 2nd shear Kiko I have, a fine turquoise shimmer.
 I have Kiko 298 on top of Kiko 296 on my index and on my ring:





See ya! ;)

Kiko 295

Hello everyone!

Here is another Kiko from the 6 I've got when I went to Paris to see my friend Ruxi. I've got 2 creams, 2 foils and 2 glittery sheers. I've just shown to you one of the sheers (269) in my last post, and one foil in a previous one (305).
So this is the first Kiko cream and it's one of a kind!
Perfect application, perfectly opaque in two coats, excellent brush, and the drying time is normal.
Such a pretty blue! Pool blue I'd say! :) I've been very much into summerish colours lately, and it's no wonder -  I think - because of the wonderful time we've had these passed 2 or 3 weeks ! In Toulouse we already have mature roses and it's already the strawberry season!

Anyway, here are the pictures of Kiko 295:









I think that Kiko should be given more attention, because they do excellent polishes at a normal prise for Europe (which is rare!).
They're having a promo right now 2.5 euros/bottle! (on their site too), so I'll surely get some more of these little wonders! ;)

Kiko 305

Hello everybody,

Today I'd like to show you one of the Kiko polishes I’ve purchased 3 or 4 weeks ago when I went to Paris to see my best friend, Ruxi. We went shopping together and she showed me this Kiko store at Les Halles. I’ve discovered that they are not only selling nail polishes, but all sorts of make up products at very interesting prices. So I’ve purchased 6 Kiko nail polishes and one eye shadow (this was only 2,5 euros!).
Here I’ll show you the first Kiko I’ve tried on, it’s Kiko number 305. And I was so happy about it!
It’s a very beautiful silvery foil with a touch of green/kaki -very fortunate combination, in my opinion!
This one is opaque in 3 coats. Excellent application with a very pleasant brush, very good drying time and very good wear. 
So here I am wearing 3 coats of Kiko 305 and one coat of NailTek Quicken. I really like the trees from the park reflecting on my nails (in the last picture), and giving them a supplementary shade of green… so cute ;)

Sorry about that accident on my middle finger.
