Sinful Colors Professional


Today's second post (speedy keenos, we know) is on our new favourite nail polish brand, Sinful Colors Professional. 
These colours were definitely an impulse buy, but not something we regret. With the vast variety of colours, ranging from pastels right through to chrome, you will be sure to find the perfect one for you.

(from left to right: Call You Later 932, Frenzy 922, Pink Forever 313, Under 18 298, Matte Nirvana 949, Black on Black 103)

From personal experience, no base or top coat was required, although Black on Black chips after a couple of days so we say definitely put a top coat on for maximum usage. The sparkly colours- Call you Later and Frenzy - look better with a base coat. We'd recommend black for both although most colours would suit.
Both Frenzy and Under 18 have lasted for 1 week so far (with the wearers having normal daily routines and no strenuous work) without chips, and only two coats were required- bonus!

The collection is an American brand although we live in the UK and these can be found online or purchased in store at Boots.
Below are the UK and US links for the nail varnish. (If you're from the US you can buy them in store at places such as Walmart).
For only £1.99/ $1.99 you really can't go wrong!



We are currently unsure of where this brand is sold elsewhere- although the website states that the brand has spread to Europe and Asia- but if you are wanting to find out or you already know, drop us a comment!

Do you own any of the collection by Sinful Colors Professional? If so whats you favourite colour and would recommend them?

Till next Wednesday,

Coachella

Coachella, the festival we wish we could go to, yet the festival that we (personally) have the least chance of attending. Possibly due to its prices- although the cost is probably on a par with many British festivals- but more likely the fact that it is all the way in California. But we can dream though, right?

This year's line up could make any non-attendee green with envy, with acts including Ben Howard, Foals, The Lumineers and Of Monsters and Men. Then top it off with beautiful weather so there's no getting drenched in the rain, whilst watching your favourite act, to then go back to a flooded tent (not fun). Surely it's the perfect festival?!

Possibly our favourite part of it though is the introduction of this years festival fashion! With magazines such as Elle USA covering it, and many celebrities attending, there's definitely something for everybody.
One key item that keeps appearing in photographs from the event is the straw hat. Bound to be very popular again this summer, make sure you don't miss out! One of our favourites is this particular hat from H&M, and for only £7.99 you can't go wrong!


Have any of you attended Coachella? Or are you going to any festivals this year?
Let us know.
Love,
