Kiko Sugar Mat - 639 - Golden Mandarin

This is the first polish I have tried from my most recent delivery from Spain; 639 Golden Mandarin.  It was the first of the new Sugar Mat collection that I saw swatched online and I knew I had to have a bottle for myself.

 

 

Golden Mandarin is an orange-y peach shade with bright yellow gold glitter scattered through it, and of course it has the rough sandy textured finish that all the Sugar Mat polishes have.

 

I really like the colour but what surprises me more is how much I love the textured finish, normally I love my nails to be as super smooth and glossy as possible but I actually really enjoyed having them this more matte rough finish.

 

The polish applied beautifully, these pictures are 3 coats but 2 would be more than adequate, and it lasted really well too, I never tend to get as long out of matte finish polishes but the Sugar Mat lasted really well, it was still going strong when I took it off after 3 full days.  It also dried super fast when applying which was nice.

 

The shimmer / glitter through this polish makes it a little more unique than all the other suede / textured / matte polishes which are out at the moment.  I can't wait to try out the other shade I chose from this collection.
