Glam Polish Anuenue

Hi darlings!

Today I have Glam Polish Anuenue to show you. I bought this when they had international shipping. Shipping was expensive but so worth it. I got the three I really wanted from the Over the Rainbow Flakies Collection but now I, of course, want a few more from the collection.

Anuenue has a transparent base with iridiscent flakies, iridiscent glass flecks, turquoise shimmer and a subtle holo effect.
It's absolutely gorgeous! I really, really love it. I decided to not layer it over anything to get a shimmery neautral look. The result is amazing. I think layering it over black will make the colours of the flakies and shimmer pop more.
I might have a new Glam favourite. 

The pictures are taken in indirect sunlight, so the lovely holo doesn't show.

The formula is amazing. One coat will probably be enough if you layer it over another polish. I used two coats for this mani to get a little more coverage. The polish dries quickly and the finish becomes shiny but a little textured. For the finish to be completely smooth you'll need a coat of TC.

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

Too Fancy Lacquer Tell Me A Sea-cret

Hi darlings!
It's Green Wednesday today and I'll show you a polish that I'm not sure will be green enough for Green Wednesday. This is Too Fancy Lacquer Tell Me A Sea-cret.

Tell Me A Sea-cret is somwhere in between minty turquoise and seafoam green and it has a subtle holo effect. The colour is gorgeous! It's so summer-y and pretty. It definitely reminds me of lazy summer days.
The holo is very subtle but lovely. It adds sparkle and depth to the amazing colour.

The pictures are taken in direct sunlight.

The formula is good. Two coats give full coverage, but you might be able to achive full coverage in just one coat depending on how thick the coat is. I do very thin coats and almost always need two coats. The finish becomes semi-matte, so you need top coat to make it super shiny.

Glam Polish Banished

Hi!
Today I'll show you Glam Polish Banished. I had it in my collection, sold it and then bought a new bottle of it because I had to give it another chance. I'm really happy that I did, because I love it.

Banished is a burgundy jeelly with red glitter and it has a scattered holo effect. It's gorgeous! This polish is part of the Cast a Spell Part 2 Collection that was released last fall. Banished was my immediate favourite, until I tried it. It was not at all what I expected. That's why I sold my bottle. Then I refretted it and bought a new bottle and now I can't believe I didn't want to keep it in the first place.
It's so sparkly. The red glitters peek through the base and gives the polish a lit-from-within-look. It's absolutely beautiful.

The pictures are taken in direct sunlight. Blogger has been messing with the quality of my pics lately. I have no idea why, so some of the pictures might appear a bit blurry.

The formula is great. Two coats give full coverage. It dries quickly but the finish becomes a little textured. It's also top coat hungry, so for a completely smooth finish you'll most likely need two coats of TC.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Glam Polish Banished and two coats of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Colors by Llarowe My Broken Down Crop Duster

Hi sweeties!

Today I'll show you Colors by Llarowe My Broken Down Crop Duster.

My Broken Down Crop Duster is a brownish backened eggplant purple with a super strong holo effect. It's gorgeous! It's a little more purple in the bottle than on the nails. It looks almost black on the nails. The holo effect is amazing. It's so strong and the holo flare is beautiful!

The pictures are taken in direct sunlight.

The formula is great. It's on the thicker side, but really easy to apply. Two coats give full coverage. It dries to a shiny finish and the holo isn't affected by TC.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Colors by Llarowe My Broken Down Crop Duster and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Smitten Polish Girl Sprouts

Hello!
It's Green Wednesday today and I'l show you Smitten Polish Girl Sprouts.

Girl Sprouts is a grass green holo with a strong holo effect. It's gorgeous, perfect for spring and summer. Smitten has lots of amazing greens. My favourite right now is Between the Baubles but this is a close second. This is definitely more appropriate for summer than the darker Between the Baubles.

The pictures are taken in direct sunlight. The holo effect is a little stronger in real life than in the photos, the holo made my camera freak out a little.

The formula is good. It's a little thin, but easy to apply. It's quite sheer, I needed three coats for full coverage.
It dries quickly and the fiish becomes very shiny.

What you see in the pictures are three coats of Smitten Polish Girl Sprouts and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat. 

Red & White

 Hi guys!
This is what my nails look like right now. I got home early today to write on a report and when I had to take a break I decided to practise my stamping skills.

For this mani I used OPI Coca Cola Red and Mentality White Opaque. 
I used two coats of OPI Coca Cola Red. I then stamped it with Mentality White Opaque using the Creative Shop Stamper. The pattern I've used is from the  Sailor Collection Plate 06 from MoYou London.
 
Coca Cola Red is the perfect pinup red. It's classy and sexy and gorgeous.You'll get a separate review of it soon. White Opaque is my favourite white stamping polish. It's amazing! If you haven't tred it you really should. 

I still need to practise my stamping. This came out a little bit wonky, but I'm very pleased. I'm getting better and better.

 

Emily de Molly Head Over Heels

Hi sweeties!

Today I'll show you Emily de Molly Head Over Heels.

Head Over Heels is a pale pastel lilac with a pink shine to it and a lovely holo effect. This is one of my favourite holos and one of my favourites from EdM. This, to me, is spring in a bottle. It so soft, pretty and very feminine.

The pictures are taken in direct sunlight.

The formula is good. It's a little sheer and three coats are required to achive full coverage. It dries fairly quickly and the finish becomes shiny. The holo isn't dulled by TC.

What you see in the pictures are two coats of Emily de Molly Head Over Heels and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.

Lilypad Lacquer Radiant Light

Hello sweeties!
I hope you're all well. This week I've scheduled post for you so you'll have something new to read here.
The polish I'll show you today is Lilypad Lacquer Radiant Light. 

Radiant Light is a red base with a holo effect and it has an orange shine to it. It really is radiant and absolutely gorgeous. The orange shine makes it glow and the holo adds extra sparkle and glam. I think this is discontinued today and it was a Femme Fatale Cosmetics exclusive.

The photos are a few months old. I have nubbins now after I suffered a bad break on my right index finger. So for the coming few weeks you'll se my nails differ in lenght from post to post due to this and an excessive amount of unpublished posts. 

The formula is great, it's that perfect balance between thick and thin. Two coats give full coverage. The finish becomes shiny and the holo isn't affected by top coat.

What you see in the pictures are two coats are two coat of Lilypad Lacquer Radiant Light and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.
