essence le – secrets of the past
this is another essence le I didn’t really care about. the colors are very retro, nothing special at first sight. but yesterday I found them on sale and I thought it wouldn’t hurt to get them anyways ^^
I only got 2 of them though and I kind of regret leaving the other 2 in the store. maybe I’ll pick them up next time.
here we go:
meet you in budapest: this is a very nice dark teal creme, right in between green and blue. I have a lot of teals, but this one is the most perfect, so I’m happy I decided to buy this.
matryoshka doll: a dark brown creme, very muddy. first I thought it’s similar to jacques, but it’s not. this one is much darker and deeper. I really like this one, and the funny thing is, that my mum just gave me my old, originally russian matryoshka dolls (we used to call them babushka), which I loved to play with many many years ago!
the formula on these was good, a bit runny, but still opaque. I used 2 coats and a topcoat on the pics. brush as always.

frankenpolish: beyond gorgeous
diesen frankie hatte ich schon lange in planung. allerdings hatte ich die benötigte base-farbe nicht auf vorrat, und da es sich um eine le handelte, hatte ich auch wenig hoffnung, diesen lack wieder zu finden. doch ich hatte glück! und ich liebe das ergebnis (das irl noch viel mehr glitzert!)
I've been planing this frankie vor a long time, but I didn't have the basecolor I wanted to use. and this had been part of a le, so I wasn't expecting to find this polish again. but I was lucky enough to get it! and I love the result (which is even more sparkling irl!)

bb couture venice party & moon over manhattan
2 weitere lacke, gehen wir direkt zu den fotos:
2 more polishes, let's get straight to the pics:


ein lila-blau mit blauem schimmer und vereinzeltem glitzer. dieser lack wirkt besonders in der sonne und in direkter beleuchtung. die farbe in meiner sammlung einzigartig und gefällt mir wirklich ausgesprochen! sie erinnert mich etwas an scrangie by rescue beauty lounge! moon over manhattan

illamasqua sirens: muse
und dies ist der (vorerst) letzte meiner illamasquas. er wurde gemeinsam mit lament in der sirens kollektion herausgegeben.
and this is my last illamasqua (for now). it was released in the sirens collection with another polish called lament.


muse ist ein mittleres petrol, eher grünstichig. er hätte sich gut auftragen lassen, wäre nicht der pinsel total schief zugeschnitten... o_Oclick to read more...
