A England Tristam

I discovered A England some time ago, probably on Scrangie. I was smitten at first glance. It took me a while, but I eventually took the plunge and ordered from the UK website (this was before I knew about Llarowe). I haven't looked back. I own almost every colour A England has made, I love them all.

Today I have Tristam, a colour from her inaugural collection based on the legends of King Arthur. Dark blue holographic! It applies like a dream, too. Two medium coats.

*Sigh* so pretty.

Zoya Blaze and Julep Vivian

A quick Christmas-inspired mani today. I love the combo of red and gold. So regal and joyful! So Ihave combined Zoya Blaze (a gorgeous red holo) and Julep Vivian (a fantastic gold glitter.)

I decided to buck against the trend and do an accnt nail on my pinkie. I know, I'm a rebel.

Merry Christmas!

A England Bridal Veil + Deborah Lippmann Happy Birthday

Sorry for the wait! Family stuff, ya know :)

Anyhoodle, I did prepare something sparkly and eye-catching to make up for it: A England Bridal Veil from their Legends collection. It's a black holo! SO SPARKLY.

Oh, A England. You have had my heart since that first order of Avalon many moons ago... Perfect formula, lovely application, wondrous colours!

Now, I was technically wearing this manicure to a children's birthday party. Sparkly as it may be, it was also black. It needed a little more PIZAZZ (capitalization mandatory). Do you know what has PIZAZZ? Deborah Lippmann's Happy Birthday! Do you know what's really easy but really impressive? Glitter gradients! Two guesses what I did!

Ahhhhh! Rainbow glitter gradient!! Now it's appropriate for a six-year old's birthday party, right? Right???

HITS Demeter

A quickie 'Holo' (Holographic) to show you. This is Demeter from HITS, a Brazilian company, from their Olimpo line. The colours are all named after the Greek Pantheon, and thy are all holos. I had to get this one, since how often do you see orange holos???

HITS Demeter -  it's not a super strong holo, but the sparkles are there.

Anyone else come across different and unique holos?

Cheers!

HITS can be purchased at Llarowe's shop.
