Kiko ~ Sparkling
Holiday #02
Blackened
burgundy with purple to golden shimmer
I seem to keep buying dark, vampy colours – only to
find out that they look nothing but black on my nails. I really need to stop
myself!
Anyway, #02 from Kiko’s Sparkling Holiday collection
of 2018 is deep, vampy, really pretty. The formula is thick and super easy to
work with. The coverage is perfect – I used one single coat of polish for my
manicure. The drying time is good.
The stamp is from the stamping plate “Mezerdoo B4”. I
stamped with Colour Alike’s stamping polish “B. a Red Wine”.
I topped the whole thing with El Corazón’s holo flakie
topper “421h/25”.
Here’s the whole thing, photographed in the lightbox.
I love the stamping polish, it made up for some of the
darkness of the Kiko shimmer polish.
Here’s #02 on its own. This is one single coat and a
thin layer of topcoat. This is exactly what it looks like in real life.

Here are the polishes and the plate I used today.
Honestly? This is too dark for me and I’ll have to
find it another home soon. What a shame.

Buy again: No
I also have some polishes that look nice in a bottle, but black on nails... What a shame.
ReplyDeleteIt is a shame for sure! I like black on others but not on me :)
DeleteAlthough you don't like black on your nails, I think they look sooo good! Well, yes, I like dark colours and this dark burgundy looks gorgeous to me! I think that it looks fabulous with the topper and the stamping that you chose! :-)
