Ninja Polish Divinity

 Today I have another favourite of mine to show you. This is Ninja Polish Divinity. I've shown this on the blog once before, you can find those pictures here.

Divinity is a multichrome that shifts between purple, red, green and gold. The colour's a dupe of the elusive Clarins 230 aka Unicorn Pee. This one doesn't need any undies though.
I usually wear it on its own, but this time I decided to layer it over a black creme. The black undies brought out the red shift a lot more.

The pictures are taken in indrect sunlight.




The formula is great. I layered one coat over black. On its own three coats give full coverage. The finish becomes matte, almost satin. If you wat it shiny one coat of top coat is enough.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of OPI Lady in Black, one coat of Ninja Polish Divinity and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

CrowsToes Vanaheim

 Hi sweeties!
It's Green Wednesday today! I'll show you CrowsToes Vanaheim that I got the lovely Nailtastic gave me.

Vanaheim is a multichrome that shifts from Peridot green to gold, copper and teal. It also has colour shifting glitters that adds extra sparkle. This is gorgeous! It's just my type of polish. The multichromatic effect is much stronger in real life, my camera had a hard time to capture it.

The pictures are taken in indirect sunlight. Once again Blogger has meesed up the quality of my pictures. It happens from time to time. Any tips on what I can do about it? I'm so tired of my pictures going blurry as soon as they're uploaded to Blogger...




 The formula is great. Two coats give full coverage. It dries quicly but the finish becomes slightly textured. You need top coat to get a completely smooth and shiny finish.

What you see int hepictures are two coats of CrowsToes Vanaheim and one coat of Pretty Serious Crstal Coat.

Colors by Llarowe Connie's Saucy Brother

Hi!

Today I'll show you Colors by Llarowe Connie's saucy Brother from the limited edition collection The Mysterious Vanishing Pigments.

Connie's Saucy Brother is a very complex shade. It's really difficult to describe. It's a grey-ish blue jelly base with fuschia shimmer and colour shifting shimmer. The colour shifting shimmer shifts from blue to copper to green. The greeen can only be seen in extreme angles though.
It's absolutely amazing. The complexity of it does it all. It's sparkly and shimmery. In some lightings it looks blurple and in others it looks like five polishes in one.

The pictures are taken in indirect sunlight.




The formula is good. Three coats give full coverage. It dries farly quickly and becomes quite shiny. If you want it super ossy one coat of top coat is enough.

What you see in the pitures are three coats of Colors by Llarowe Connie's Saucy Brother and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Fantasy Fire Layering

Hi darlings! Long time no write. I've been so busy finish up my bachelor's degree project that I haven't had the time to blog. I've finished the project now and I have to turn it in on Thursday. Hopefully I'll pass! 
Enough about that, let's talk about polish instead. Today I'll show you two of my favourite polishes in a lovely layering. 

The polishes I've used are Barry M Blue Grape and Max Factor Fantasy Fire. 
Blue Grape might just be the perfect blue colour. It's so vibrant and shiny. 
Fantasy Fire is as most of you now a gorgeous multichrome. It doesn't cover on its own, unless you use a billion (at least six coats. Yes, I've tried), so it's the perfect polish for layering. 
I love Fantasy Fire over Blue Grape. It's stunning and so much more sparkly and vibrant in real life. When the light hits it the shimmer sparkles in a vivid purple over the blue base. In indirect sunlight, as you can see in the pictures, the multichromatic effect is better seen. 




I used two coats of Barry M Blue Grape, one coat of Max Factor Fantasy Fire and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

ILNP Reminisce


Hello!
It's Green Wednesday and I'll show you ILNP Reminisce. This is another polish I got from my lovely Birthday Polish group.

Reminisce is a multichromatic polish that shifts from green to blue and even purple in extreme angles. It's gorgeous. I love multichromes and ILNP has some of the best ones around.
This is alittle brush stroke-y, but it doesn't bother me. I really like the green base, it's so intense and the blue shift is so pretty.



The formula is good. It's a little sheer but three coats give full coverage. I think you could get away with one coat if you layer it over a black creme. It dries quickly and the finish becomes shiny.

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

Glam Polish Hakuna Matata

Hello darlings!
Yesterday was my two year blogiversary. Don't miss out on the giveaway!
Today I have Glam Polish Hakuna Matata to show you. It's part of the Never too Old to be Young collection.

Hakuna Matata is a is a blackened blue multichrome that flashes teal green and purple. Glam Polish has done it again! This polish made my jaw drop. It definitely has that "OMG, it's gorgeous!"-factor to it. To top the amazing multichromatic effect off it also has a scattered holo effect. The holo pigment is subtle but it adds lots of depth to the polish.
This is one of my new favourite multichromes. It's even multichromatic in direct sunlight though my camera couldn't capture it.






The formula is amazing. The polish applies like butter. Two coats gave full coverage and the poish dries quickly. The finish becomes shiny and smooth. 
What you see in the pictures are two coats of Glam Polish Hakuna Matata and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystall Coat.

ILNP Masquerade


Long time, no write.I had a lovely holiday in Malta. I did nothing but hang on the beach and dive. The waters there are crystal clear! When I got home I started my summer job. I haven't really had time to do anything else than that. This is the first time in two weeks that I've actually had the time to sit down and blog. 
The polish I'm showing you today is ILNP Masquerade.

Masquerade is a multichromatic polish that shifts from green, gold, red and purple. The two most prominent colours are green and purple but the others can be seen at most times. 
This is gorgeous. I love mutlichromes. I think it's so fun with the colour shifts. It's like four polishes in one. Love it. With that said. I like this polish. A lot. But I think ILNP has many other, even prettier multichromes, for example Siren, Peace and Nostalgia




The formula is good. It's a bit tricky to apply. it's one of those polishes where brush strokes are super visible in the finish. if your quick and don't drag the plish arounf to much on the nails there should be less bruh strokes visible.  Otherwise the formula is good. Three thin coats give full coverage and the polish dries quickly. The finish becomes shiny.
What you see in the ictures are three coats of ILNP Masquerade and one coat of Pretty Serious Crustal Coat.

Colors by Llarowe The Great Pretender


Hello! I hope you're all well! I haven't had any time to blog during the past few days. I've been busy with school, work interviews and other ordinary have to do stuff. Now I have time off until Monday and I've prepared posts for you to read during the weekend.
Today I have another Colors by Llarowe from the Spring Frenzy collection to show you. This is The Great Pretender. I can't help but listening to Foo Fighters The Pretender when writing this post.

The Great Pretender is a purple-ish red with colour shift. the polish shifts between red, purple, orange, blue and green. Leah Ann's "version of the elusive Unicorn Pee", in other words Clarins 230. With that said I think it's safe to say that the polish is very pretty. The colours shift was really hard to catch, my camera went a little crazy, but it's much more prominent in real life. It's pretty but I do have other polishes that have the same effect that I prefer over this. Those polishes lack one quaity that The Great Pretender has though. The Great Pretender covers on it's own.





The formula is good. A little bit thick but it's still easy to apply. Two coats gave full coverage and it dries very shiny.
What you see in the pictures are two coats of Colors by Llarowe The Great Pretender and one coat of Poshé

Ninja Polish Shillelagh

Hello! It's Green Wednesday today and I have my favourite green to show you today. Again, actually. I've shown you this polish once before, but Ninja Polish Shillelagh is definitely worth to be shown again and again. Let's take a look at it, shall we?

Shillelagh is a green multichromatic polish that shifts between different shades of green and even to gold. It's like a green pot o' gold. If I were a leprechaun I'd definitely not store gold at the end of the rainbow. I'd stor an endless supply of Ninja Polish Shillelagh. That's how gorgeous I think it is. I just love it.




The formula is good. It's easy to apply and goes on smoothly. It's a tad bit sheer, but three coats gave full coverage. It dries down to a semi-matte finish so TC i a must to get that super shiny finish. The lovely shimmer comes out with some TC on it, but it's pretty when semi-matte as well.
What you see in the pictures are three coats of Ninja Polish Shillelagh and one coat of Seche Vite.

Colors by Llarowe Hellcat


I just came home from my law exam. It went well, at leat it feels like it went well. That's why I've been so absent during the weekend. I've been preparing for my exam. Hopefully it payed off. Today I'm back in the blogsphere with another Colors by Llarowe. I hope I don't bore you when I show so many CbL's but I truly do love this brand. The one I'd like to show you today is Hellcat.

Hellcat is a mutichormatic polish with golden flakes. Yes, there's a lot going on in this polish. The colour shits changes between deep, dark purple, plum, fuchsia purple, wine and there's even a golden shift in extreme angles. Of course my camera couldn't capture all the colours. 
It's extremely pretty with the golden flakes peeking up through the base. Very vampy without being super dark. It's truly beautiful!





The formula was alright. It' was bordering on being too thick. I've polihed with a lot worse though. it still applied rather easily, you just have to be careful and do very thin coats. Fortunately it's really pigmented so two coats were enough fo full coverage. However it dries quickly but a bit rough because of the flakes. TC is definitely needed to make the finish shiny and smooth.
What you see in the pictures are two coats of Colors by Llarowe and one coat of Glisten & Glow HK Girl Top Coat.
