Rawrgirls Review . . . Kokoro Nails Ready To Wear Nail Sets!

Sunday 1 December 2013


We've been long time friends of super talented Carly of Kokoro Nails, so we were super excited when she opened a Kokoro Nails Etsy store last month, selling hand painted ready to wear nail sets!

Each nail is painted with high quality branded products (Butter London, Illamasqua, OPI etc) onto Nailene or Boots acrylic nails. Each set of 10 nails takes a few hours to produce, before being sealed with 2 coats of Seche Vite (only the best!). C then pops the set into a pack with nail glue and a nail file ready for you to wear straight out of the bag! 

Carly sent me the 'My Little Pony Princess Celestia' set to try out for myself because we're total bronies ;) 



The design features shimmering baby pink with lilacs and purple waves, sequins and a pink pearl around Celestia's neck, and is just too pretty! The set applied just like a shop bought kit and I wore them proudly for 3 days before having to remove them for a mani, but they're still in perfect condition (no chips!) and ready to wear another time! 



The best thing is that they are hand painted, as opposed to printed shop bought nail sets, so they feel more organic and less 'false', which is nice if you have an aversion to falsies but love nail art. 

With prices ranging from £7 up to £16, all of Kokoro's signature styles are there - harlequin, Cath Kidston style florals and the amazing fairisle, along with some really cute festive styles! They'd make a really nice gift for a nail art lover, or if you fancy something a little bit different but don't have time to have a sit down mani, so please do check them out!
