Nars Thakoon Nails

Sunday, 8 April 2012


Lal Mirchi, Anardana, Ratin Jot, Amchoor, Kuhti and Koliary

Nars are getting ready for Spring/Summer by partnering with designed Thakoon Panichgul to develop a new limited edition six-shade collection of nail polishes.

According to Nars, in conceptualising the shade range, Thakoon was inspired by the vibrant colors found in Indian spice markets. The highly saturated, high-shine shades come in an opaque finish, perfect for spring. Formula is long-wearing, chip-resistant and toluene-, formaldehyde- and DBP-free.

Priced at £14 each they are currently available for pre-order from the NarsCosmetics.co.uk ready for their full launch on 16th April.


Lal Mirchi Mandarin red   Anardana – Azalea pink


Amchoor Bright yellow   Ratin Jot Orchid purple



Kutki Powder blue   Koliary Cyan blue

Although these colours are gorgeous I have seen quite a few similar colours around...the purple immediately reminds me of Illamasqua's Stance. For me the most unique is Lal Mirchi which looks like a kinda burnt orange.

Which one is your favourite?

Hi everyone! Hope you all have a great weekend!! What did you get upto??

Today I am really excited to introduce you to an awesome chick who is crazy talented at nail art...its Vertika from Vivacious Blog! I've been following her blog for a few months now and I just love all her creative and detailed designs so much that I asked her if she would be able to a special design for me...

Here's what she came up with...

Hello Beauties!

Cherry is one of my favourite fruits. And whenever I have ice cream first thing I eat is the cherry on top. I even steal cherry of others ice cream. J

So I thought I should try cherry on my nails.

I used –

  • White nail paint
  • Red nail paint
  • Green nail Paint
  • Nail Art Brush
  • Toothpick 
  • Top Coat and Base Coat


Method –

First apply base coat on all the nails.

Then use white nail paint and apply on all nails. Then let it dry.


 Apply red nail paint on nail tips. 

Take a toothpick and make few dots with red nail paint. These red dots are cherries. 


Then make green parts of cherry with green nail paint.


Now make two white lines on red nail tips. 


For thumb nail, write CHERRY and make cherries. 



Secure it with top coat. 



I hope you enjoyed this cute cherry nail art...you can checkout out Vertika's blog here...she has some really great designs! oh and lets not forget....Happy Valentines Day everyone!!
