Kit Cosmetics – Up Beat nail polish
Sometimes the name doesn’t quite match the polish. Kit Cosmetics Up Beat is a muted grey-blue cream without any shimmers or sparkles. It’s a summer stormcloud murky grey, or the ocean on a choppy overcast day. Not quite upbeat and chipper, but perfect as we’re sliding into the tail end of autumn (and in my case, ...

Kit Cosmetics – limited edition lip gloss in Melon Crush
if you’ve been following my twitter account, you’d know that I’ve done a bit of mischief to my arms and wrists to the point where they’re both wrapped, taped and on splints. You’ll have to excuse me if I post little more than pictures for the next few weeks as I’m not supposed to be ...

Only two colours are available ...

Kit Cosmetics – Multipurpose Wonder Balm
Bit of an interesting one, this one. I picked this up because my other half is a bit of a gentleman lip balm fiend, with a slightly long list of what a lip balm must/must not have before he’ll use it. It can’t be messy or goopy. In order of preference: squeezy tube, wind-up stick, ...

Kit – Big Bang
Big Bang is a bright blue-based purple cream nail polish. It dries like a neon colour – a satiny, semi-matte finish – so a top coat is a must. Shown above is two coats topped with one coat of INM Out The Door top coat. Kit nail polishes are available from Kit stores or their ...
