A England – Princess Sabra

Friday, June 28th, 2013

Yay it’s time for Skimmerskuggan’s Holo Friday again! Princess Sabra is one of the holographic polishes from A England’s the Legends collection. It has the additional name Tristam Eyes (the creator Adina’s cat), and I can really see this being the color of a cat eye. is color. I would describe the color as a olive toned beige/gold, and it’s a nice discrete color. I applied two coats of Princess Sabra, if I were to wear it longer than a day I would probably have gone for three coats. Unfortunately the brush in this bottle was really wonky so the application wasn’t the best.

Lets take a look at it in the sun:

The holographic effect wasn’t visible at all when I photographed it in the shade:

I took another photo by the computer to try and catch the slight holographic effect indoors. It’s grainy and the color is a bit off, but I think you get the idea of what it looks like:

In normal lighting the holographic effect gives the color some extra depth, and it’s really quite beautiful. It’s a really nice polish, the only bad thing was the brush, but that can happen to the best of brands.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend! I hope I can get to edit some photos for the blog, I have loads of stuff that I still haven’t posted and it just keeps piling up.

Color Club – Cherubic

Friday, January 25th, 2013

Finally I have a new manicure to show you, and as you can tell my nails are quite shorter now. I think it’s nice for a change, I haven’t had this short nails for a couple of years so I’ve forgotten what it was like =) This Holo Friday I have Color Club Cherubic to show you from the Halo Hues collection, it’s a neutral beige with a superb holographic effect. This is two coats, with longer nails I probably would have done three as usual.

Please excuse the the stuff on my ring finger nail, I had just violated them with my nail file…

I love this polish, it’s perfect when you don’t really know what color to wear, but want some holographic goodness.

China Glaze – FYI

Here’s another old goodie from the OMG collection, the light beige FYI. I had been wearing only two coats for a couple of days, and before I took the photos I added a third coat.

This is a wonderful polish when you want something discrete, but where there’s still some fun action going on. I love how fast drying these polishes are!
