Essie Penny Talk

Ooooo copper foil!

This is part of the Essie Mirror Metallics collection. There rest of the collection is your standard gold, silver, blue etc. but this copper colour stood out to me. How often do you see this lovely metallic?




Alas, there are some noticeable brush strokes, but the colour! The colour! Perfecto!

Cheers!

Lillibet's Jubilee

This is adorable. Butter London created a special polish for Queen Elizabeth II's 60th anniversary. How cute is that? Its called 'Lillibet's Jubilee' after the Queen's childhood nickname. Love it! It is a quite pretty lavendar foil. It has a good consistency and the brush marks are not too problematic, see?




*Sigh* So pretty.

Zoya Meg and Lynnderella Connect the Dots

I'm calling it: Summer is officially here. And I have been LOVING Zoya's Beach and Surf! Gorgeous bright colours in creme and shimmer and foil finishes... YAY!

Today I have Zoya Meg - a wonderful apple-green foil. A little random for the collection, but I really really like it.



 Zoya Meg - Meg has a great consistency, and the brush marks are minimal (always a risk for foils). This colour made me so happy!

Naturally, I can't leave well enough alone, so I decided to try out my Lynnderella Connect the Dots - a big score, as it is wildly popular and tough to get. Go me!

I love Connect the Dots. I think it makes any mani look like a Jackson Pollock painting. I got tons of compliments when I wore this.




 SO MUCH GLITTER! The black and white glitter is matte, so its not "glittery shiny", but it works perfectly. There is also a slight shimmer in the base, but the foil disguises it. LOVE.

What do you think?
