Hello and happy Friday to you all - hopefully your Friday 13th hasn't been an unlucky one!
Only one day to go until the day that is either loved or loathed arrives - Valentines day.
Unfortunately for you anti-valentiner's out there, we're really feeling the love here at Vivien Kondor London this year, and we wanted to show some of our favourite colours for February 14th.
... Cupid would be proud!
Starting at the top right and moving clockwise: 136-Red Glitter, 118-Rose Pink, 115-Crimson, 111-Shiny Maroon, 122-Lilac and 109-Blood Red.
We have hand-picked six of our favourite colours for this years day of declarations of love, some classic and expected, and others a little different in order to spice things up.
A classic nail colour with a twist. Lilac is a delicate baby-pink with hints of light, lilac purple. Cute, girly and pretty, this is our pick for first date nails!
Perfect for: a casual day-date.
Rose Pink is the ultimate Valentine's pink nail. Bright, hot and deliciously pink, there is no way you are blending into the background with this colour!
Perfect for: making a statement at an evening meal.
Crimson is one of our more experimental colours, and we really do feel it's paid off. A gorgeous and unique blend of reds, purples and pink, crimson will catch the light every time you move and is perfect if you are looking for something a little different for your nails this V day.
Perfect for: adding a little extra to a simple outfit.
As you know, we love a little bit of glitter here at VKHQ, and there is no chance we'd let this day pass without incorporating some sparkle somewhere! Keeping it classic and romantic with a deep red base, Red Glitter builds up beautifully to create full coverage with just the right amount of sparkle.
Perfect for: evening drinks in a fancy bar.
Not really into the whole valentine thing but have a date tomorrow? Shiny Maroon is for you. Keeping with the romantic theme this red, shiny polish has a gentle dusting of shimmer that catches the light, however the deeper shade gives this a much more mysterious feel.
Perfect for: completing an edgier valentine's look or seeing some live music in a local venue.
How could we have possibly written a Valentine's nail polish guide without including the timeless classic that is Blood Red? Classy, sophisticated yet sexy and absolutely perfect for Valentines Day, a classic red nail needs no explanation.
Perfect for: absolutely any Valentine's situation - you cannot possibly go wrong with a staple red nail!
All swatches shown above were painted with two coats of Vivien Kondor polish and one coat of 101-Top Coat, Base Coat & Hardener (except for 136-Red Glitter, this was painted with three coats of polish for full glitter coverage and one coat of 101-Top Coat, Base Coat & Hardener).
When we say we're feeling the love here at VKHQ - we really mean it!
