Kiko - n. 333 + BeYu - n. 209

Ok, THE king combo of the year (almost, I think my absolute favourite of 2011 is this one).

Thanks to the magnificent n. 209 from BeYu, I was able to recreate a Clarins 230 look-a-like, which is not bad since I will never get the original one...

Well, not just the BeYu, but a very great deep purple by Kiko helped me with this manicure.

I showed you n. 333 here, and you see now the deepness of this purple, so dark and saturated.
It's not a unique colour, but this is what we have in Italy, and considering it's a Kiko, you may know about its good quality, good brush, etc. :>

The main characters:

I took this picture in the dawn lighting, that's why it's so warm.
Pretty as well, eh?

We had sun the previous week before Christmas, but I was unable to take pictures in the open, so I tried to capture the green side of the shimmer... in my bathroom -.-
But it's there!

And here it is how it looks in artificial light, so sparkly and precious!

I liked this a LOT, you may have noticed it by the number of pictures :D

I applied two coats of n. 333 and two coats of n. 209; it was beautiful with just one coat of n. 209, but oh well... :D

The good BeYu (INCI 31) isn't that easy to find, but if you have a Douglas near you, I suggest trying several times searching for it and NOT giving up, because I was able to find other bottles to send out to some girls who requested it.
Remember this colour it's part of the BeYu regular range, it's NOT a limited edition :>

The purple Kiko is a creme, not a jelly one, but that's ok, I guess I'll use it for other interesting layerings such this one.


Have a nice day/night/whatever and thanks for your attention ;¬)
