ILNP 'Hush' Swatch & Review

Hello!

Today I have the beautiful ILNP 'Hush' to show you. Lots of Multichrome pictures ahead!

ILNP 'Hush' is part of the ILNP Ultrachrome collection. ILNP is so good at these polishes I can't believe it's taken me so long to try them because 'Hush' is so beautiful!

The ILNP Ultrachromes are so shifty. 'Hush' shifts from a beautiful Fuchsia Purple to Blue Teal with flashes of Green, Orange, & Pink. 

This was just three super easy coats. The formula is stunning. All topped off with HK Girl top coat.

I couldn't stop staring at my nails with this on. The teal is so beautiful and the polish looks different in every light and with every turn.

This definitely won't be my last Ultrachrome from ILNP. I'd love to hear any recommendations!

Thanks for visiting,

Have a lovely day,

Femme Fatale Cosmetics 'The Necromancer' Swatch & Review

Hello!

Today I have the stunning Femme Fatale Cosmetics 'The Necromancer' to show you from the 'There & Back Again' Collection.

I'll admit that unlike a lot of people in the indie world of polish purple is not my favourite polish colour. I don't know why but I'm just not drawn to it as much as other colours. This however was screaming at me to be on my nails as soon as it arrived. And OMG I love it! 

'The Necromancer' is a gorgeous berry pink leaning purple packed with these amazing copper flakies, blue shimmers and cherry holo microglitter. It's so complex and because it's a jelly the depth is really something else!

In Artificial Light the berry shade really shows.

The formula was also flawless. This was three super easy coats and I had no problems with opacity despite the jelly formula. I topped it off with HK Girl top coat.

I love this polish and will definitely be purchasing a back up bottle. It's simply stunning and when the light hits it it's so sparkly. It's also super easy to remove which is always a bonus but still lasted me all week! The 'There & Back Again' collection is currently on presale on the Femme Fatale Cosmetics website and is also available from stockists like the wonderful Rainbow Connection UK.

Trust me when I say you need this!

Nail Mail Monday & Femme Fatale Cosmetics 'Heart Wound' Comparison

Hello,

Just a short post from me today,

This week I received some Nail Mail from Rainbow Connection UK. 

From Left to Right is Cirque Colors 'High Roller' & Femme Fatale Cosmetics 'Heart Wound'.

I recently wrote a post about Femme Fatale Cosmetics 'Loves Wound'. You can read it here.

This is the updated comparison to include 'Heart Wound'.

From Left to Right is 'Heart Wound', 'Loves Wound' Faded, Unfaded & Reformulated.

'Heart Wound' definitely seems more coral leaning probably because it's faded more as Australia is much hotter than the UK. I'm glad I decided to pick it up.

Thanks for visiting,

Cirque Colors 'Sin City' & Helios' Nail Art

Hello,

Today I have some Nail Art to show you using Cirque Colors 'Sin City' from the new Vice 2016 Collection & 'Helios'.

'Sin City' was such a difficult colour to photograph. It kept coming out orange so I've colour corrected it as best I can. 

This was just two coats of 'Sin City' and one coat of 'Helios' plus one sponged layer. Both formulas were excellent as I've come to expect from Cirque!

I stamped the chevron design using Bundle Monster Blogger Collaboration Plate 'BM-XL-201'. I used my Fab Ur Nails Jumbo Clear Stamper to make sure the design went on straight and my new white Emily de Molly stamping polish. Everything worked really well. I topped it all off with HK Girl top coat.

I love how bright these nails are and they are perfect for summer!

What do you think?
