Rio Nail Artist Shimmer & Sparkle

Rio Nail Artist Shimmer & Sparkle
I was recently given this Rio Nail Artist Shimmer & Sparkle set at a blogger meet up I attended, and while its something I would have never picked up for myself, I have really come to really love it over the past couple of weeks. The kit contains three nail polishes, five pots of assorted glitter, two rolls of stripping tape, a detail brush and dotter all for £19.99. Also included in the box is a handy DVD and paper guide for inspiration. I have to admit,  I was pleasantly surprised by this kit and despite my first thoughts that this was a little overpriced for someone as ebay savvy as myself, I would now happily part with my own money for another.

For me what makes the kit worth the money is the quality of the three polishes. The nail art polish was opaque in two coats (each of which dried in record time) and the 3D glitter polishes applied really evenly. Three hours later copying one of the designs off of the box my nails looked a little something like this..

While I cant say the look lasted too long, as I am a terrible picker, I got so many compliments when I wore this look! Have you tried anything from Rio?

  4. oooh I like this!
    Could you maybe do a post on products from poundshops one day because I've often wondered how they compare to what people consider "proper" make-up brands? :)
