The Body Shop - ESTÉE LALONDE NAIL ART KIT review and swatches*

Woop woop look what I found today when I got home after work. New The Body Shop Nail Art Kit by Estée Lalonde.

Estee Lalonde Nail Art Kit
Also in the kit contains a card with 2 nail art tutorials. Of course you can make your own design or you can use colour on it's own, just one colour in time. It is easy to apply and dry quickly. And the colours are just perfect for Autumn/Winter time. 


This Nail Art Kit is super cute the same like and Estée Lalonde. I love to watch her videos and if you don't know her yet, check out her Youtube channel Essie Button

I got Nail Art Kit with Estee Lalonde signature (super happy)


The kit price is just £15 and It is cheaper to buy nail kit than to buy nail polishes seperate. (you can save extra money or instead of that buy one more nail polish colour). And I was lucky to get this one from The Body Shop for free. I applyed for their competition to win ticket for Estee Lalondre vlogger event, but they didn't choose me, but kindly send me this Nail Art Kit. And I am very very happy, because I got this kit signed by Estee Lalondre. 



What do you think about this kit? Did you buy?

Barry M Sunset Nail Paint & Topcoat Review and Swatches

Hello everyone!

There is a new nail polish collection called Sunset Daylight Curing by Barry M. Nail polishes comes in 7 colours + one Topcoat. I am a fan of Barry M nail products, so I was so excited to try new range, but two things confused me. It is going to work just on daylight? And it is going to be easy to remove it? So I tried it at 1 o'clock at night! And.. it worked perfect! To do nail polish you don't need to wait for daylight. But Barry M says that Sunset uses natural daylight curing to create long lasting gloss nails. And there's no need for salons and UV lights. And to remove it's easy with normal nail polish remover.

 How to apply?

1) Paint on a thin layer of Sunset Nail Paint and allow to dry. Then apply a second coat.
2) When dry, apply a thin layer of Sunset Topcoat (they says no other Topcoat will work). Your nails will now cure naturally in daylight (but it works and at night, without daylight) for a long lasting, stunning pro mani effect.

Out Of My Red, Like a Nude

One more thing which makes me happy - it is a flat brushes! They made the same brushes like in their Quick dry collection. It is so easy to apply with. You just need three strokes per nail.

Like A Nude
The price is a bargain! £4.99 for a bottle. And you can choose from 7 colours, plus you will need a topcoat. And there is an offer on Superdrug.  3 for 2 and plus you will get Makeup bag for free.



P.S. Maybe you are thinking, maybe I can do nail polish without topcoat? Yes you can, but nails not gonna be cure. You will get marks on your nails (like your nail polish didn't dry properly).
