Inkredibly Impressed by Marian Newman

According to UK Tatler, nail guru Marian Newman "is to nails what Karl Lagerfeld is to frocks" - high praise indeed. When you read a bit about her new INKredibles nail pens, you begin to appreciate the plaudits.

Water-based opaque and semi-opaque pigments in 15 shades are contained in gloss-alike wands. You swipe them over nails for a finish that takes 20 seconds to touch dry, 60 seconds to smudge-proof and 90 seconds to set rock hard. Finally, the five minute manicure is truly here! Paint on Wrapture, the top coat, and you're all set.

While they're not available in Ireland yet, take advantage of the weak rate of Sterling and buy INKredibles from the Marian Newman website. They start from £21.53 for a one-colour kit that includes an Inkredible colour brush pen of your choice, a Wrapture topcoat pen, a Remove! sachet and a Moisturise! sachet.
