Models Own hed kandi ibiza mix review

Gorgeous glitter, chunky turquoise, gold, orange, blue and purple in a number of sizes all in a clear polish.

I used it over 17 lasting fix mint choc chip polish and it looked gorgeous and attracted lots of compliments.

To apply I found putting on a blob and then moving it around worked best. Painting on like usual moved all glitter to the tip of the nail.

BUT - and this is quite a big but - it stinks!!!! Seriously it pongs like a marker pen and then some. I thought maybe the smell would wear off but it whiffed for the entire next day too.

Never have i had a polish that has made me high on fumes followed by a headache urgh!

Collection 2000 haul!

Who can say no to glitter? Clearly not me after buying not one but four Collection 2000 glam crystals gel eye liner! Also gold Hot Looks nail polish and big fake false lash effect mascara.

Well I've tried out the gold liner for work and it stayed put all day, the glitter didn't fall off or move around so all good.

The swatch test shows the teal (called le freak) with fab glitter colours like yellow and lime. But was disappointed with the purple (shake it up), thought it could be more highly pigmented and a stronger, brighter colour like the teal. It also smears to each side when you use it- however the other three shades are a bit wetter (if that's the right way to describe it!) so glide on smoothly with an equal weighting of glitter and colour.

The silver (glitz) separates v quickly but with a good shake seems to mix back together!

The gold polish is a great colour but a little watery and the mascara was a tad dry but with a good wand, it was also long lasting. It certainly didn't 'double' my lash size as claimed!

All in all, a great lunchtime shop!
