Bear Pawlish Roseannadanna


 It's that time of the year again. The one I love the best. The Holiday season!

It's the first of advent tomorrow and I can't wait any longer. I have so many beautiful holiday polishes to show you. This is Bear Pawlih Roseannadanna. Yes, it's not a holiday polish but it has everything I love about Christmas polishes. It's red and sparkly and gorgeous.

Roseannadanna is a true red jelly with holograhic shimmer, red micro glitter and larger red, prismatic glitter. It's an absolute beauty. It sparkles like crazy. It's the perfect red for Christmas. I couldn't stop staring at my nails when I wore this.

The photos are taken in artificial lighting.





The formula is good. It's a jelly so on its own it covers in three coats. I decided to layer it over a red creme instead. It dries quickly but the finish becomes quite textured since there's so much glitter. I needed two coats of top coat to make the finish shiny and smooth.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Bear Pawlish Roseannadanna over one coat of OPI What's Your Point-Settia. I did two coats of top coat and used Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

ILNP Diablo

Hello!

Let's take a look a ILNP Diablo. 

Diablo is a burgundy red crelly with holographic flakes. It's gorgeous, dark and vampy. I really lov these smooth holographic flakes. They're simliar to the ones in Zoya Aurora, Blaze and Dream  but not exactly the same. I love the colour as well. Burgundy is right up my alley and it's the perfect fall colour. It's red but deeper and more sot than brighter ones.

The photos are taken in artificial lighting.




The formula is good. It's a little bit sheer. It's a crelly but leans more towards jelly than creme. Three coats give full coverage. The finish becomes very shiny and it dries quickly.


What you see in the pictures are three coats of ILNP Diablo and one coat Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

ILNP Pretty Little Liars


 Are you sick of me yet, only showing you ILNP at the moment. I'm not, but this is the last one as of right now. This is ILNP Pretty Little Liar. 

Pretty Little Liar is a warm red tinted purple crelly with holographic flakes. It's one of my favourites from the fall collection. The holo flakes give depth and sparkle and the colour is beautiful. It's sin't very unique though, but who cares when it's this gorgeous.

The photos are taken in artificial lighting.




The formula is good. Two coats give full coverage. The finish becomes smooth and shiny. I used one coat of top coat to make it look extra glossy.

ILNP Lulu

Hi darlings!

I still have a few polishes from ILNP Fall collection to show. This is Lulu.

Lulu is a blurple with holographic flakes. It's a pruple with blue undertones. I find that it only looks purple in darker lights. As soon as it's in daylight or artificial lighting it looks royal blue. It's oh so pretty, but I have a few others in my stash that's very similar to this one.

The photos are taken in artificial lighting.




The formula is great. Two coats give full coverage. The finish becomes super shiny and top coat is unnecessary in that aspect. For longer wear you'll still need top coat.

What you see in the pitures are two coats of ILNP Lulu and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Bear Pawlish Aurwen's Violet


Hello!

I've been making Christmas cards  for months now. I sell them at different hoiday markets in December so I need to stock up on them. So I'm definitely in mood for the Holidays. I'll only show you Christmas and holiday polishes in December. We're not there quite yet and I still have some fall polishes (and others of course) to show you before the holiday season.

This is Bear Pawlish Aurwen's Violet.

Aurwen's Violet is a deep, blackened violet and it's gorgeous. It's absolutely perfect for fall. It's very seductive and classy. It's slightly brighter and not as black in real life than in my pitcures, but the colour depend a lot on light. In brighter lights it may look slightly lighter than it is. The holo is strong but doesn't take over the colour.

The pictures are taken in artificial lighting.




The formula is flawless. Two coat give full coverage. If you have shorter nails you might get away with one coat because it's very pigmented. The finish become shiny and top coat doen't affect the holo.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Bear Pawlish Aurwen's Violet and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.


Glam Polish Fall'n For You

Hi!

It's winter here in Sweden but I still have some fall polishes to show you. This one is Glam Polish Fall'n For You from 2015's Halloween Trio.

Fall'n For You is a silver holographic base with micrglitter. I can see orange, gold, copper, red and a few pink glitters. It's the perfect fall polish and it's so unique. I don't have anything else like it in my collection. The ilver compliments the orange and they go really well together. I love the combination, it's gorgeous.


The photos are taken in artificial lighting.




The formula is good. Three coats gave full coverage. I think you can use it as a glitter topper as well if you do one coat over another polish. The finish becomes sligtly textured, but that's to expect since there's so much glitter. Two coats of top coat make the finish shiny and smooth.

What you see in the pictures are three coats of Glam Polish Fall'n For You, one coat of Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter Food and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

ILNP First Class

 Hello darlings!

Toyday I'll show you ILNP First Class from the fall collection.

First Class is a silvery dark grey holo with silver flakes. It's amazingly sparkly. It has a mirror effect that is super pretty and gives this polih an edge. IlNP has done this finish a few times before and it really is gorgeous. It makes the polish more sparkly than a glitter polish but with a smoother finish and the holo is still very visible.

The photos are taken in artificial lighting.





The formula is good. Two, thin coats give full coverage. The finish becomes slightly gritty, but a lot less than a glitter, so you only need one coat of top coat to make the finish smooth.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of ILNP First Class and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Glam Polish It's Alive

 Hi darlings!

I had a job interview today. I want the job so badly but I won't know until next week. I have to start looking for jobs now, since I get my bachelor's degree in social work in January. I mean I have a job as a social worker already but my boyfriend and I are moving to his hometwon so I have to get a new job there. Cross you fingers!

Anyway, today I'll show you Glam Polish It's Alive from the Darkly Dreaming Collection. 

It's Alive is a green holo with a blue tinge with prismatic glitter and green glass flecks. This one isn't as sparkly as the rest but it's one of my favourites from the collection. And you know me, I love green.
It has depth and shine and even though it isn't as sparkly as the rest of the Darkly Dreaming Collection it still sparkles, a lot.

The photos are taken in artifical lighting. The colour appears slightly darker in my pictures than it is in real life.





The formula is good. I have nothing to complain about. Two coats give full coverage. The finish becomes a tad textured but a good top coat makes it smooth and shiny. It dries fairly fast.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Glam Polish It's Alive and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Glam Polish Remember the Monsters


It's Blue Monday today and I'll show you Glam Polish Remember the Monsters from the Darkly Dreaming Collection that's inspred from my favourte tv show Dexter. 


Remember the Monsters is a dark blue holo with prismatic glitter and blue glass flecks. I love it. This is the type of polish that truly shows why Glam Polish is one of my favourite brands. It has depth, lots of sparkles and it's complete breathtaking. 
It does't remind me of monters, instead I think of a starlit night sky. Remeber the Monsters sparkles and twinkles in the prettiest way. 

The pictures are taken in atrificial lighting.




The formula is good. Two coats give full coverage. The finish becomes a little textured but a good top coat makes it smooth and shiny and really brings out the sparkle. 

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Glam Polish Remember the Monsters and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Bear Pawlish Iced Matcha

Hi darlings!

The last few days I've showed you a lot of dark polishes, so today I'll change it up and show you something bright and fun. This is Bear Pawlish Iced Matcha, a Rainbow Connection exclusive. As I've said before, I think the shipping cost from RC is absolutely horrific and frankly quite ridiculous, £20-25 outside of the UK. I recommend that you buy from them in a group buy to save on shipping. That's how I do when I order from them. Otherwise I wouldn't.

Iced Matcha is a bright, bordering neon, green holo with yellow and blue shimmer. It's so pretty. I love these type of green colours, especially in the spring. During the fall and winter this is a lovely pop of colour in the darkness. Maybe that's the time of year you should wear neons. At least here in Sweden.
I love matcha tea. I've had matcha icecream and matcha cupcakes and both are amazing, but the tea is  fantastic.

The shimmer isn't very prominent but it adds some depth to the polish. The holo is slightly stronger in real life than in my photos, but it's still subtle. 

The pictures are taken in artificial lighting. 





The formula is great. It's so easy to apply and it doesn't become patchy or streaky at all. Two coats give full coverage. The finish becomes rather matte when dry so a good top coat is a must if you want it to be shiny.
