Gamechanger!

I was recommended Kester Black products by my doctor who wanted me to stop using shellac and other toxic nail options. I was a little sceptical at first as to whether I would still be able to get a shellac type finish with them but I shouldn't have been concerned!

The polish is sooo easy to apply, especially for someone who has a poor history of doing her own nails, and looks absolutely lovely, and lasts for ages! Super happy :) This colour is my day to day now and will definitely purchase other colours in future.
