Orly - Adrenaline Rush Summer 2015 Collection

Hi everyone! Today I have the newest Orly collection to show you called Adrenaline Rush, and what a perfect name for this collection. These nail polishes are BRIGHT and very very beautiful, with the most perfect formula, only needing 2 coats!. Orly retails for $18.95 and is available from selected Terry White chemists and online at www.orlybeauty.com.au. Let's take a look at the shades!

Be Daring - A beautiful dusty grape purple creme. 

Fireball - A very unique red/orange creme with subtle blue shimmers. I adore this colour!

On The Edge - This is my absolute favourite colour from this collection and has already made its way into my top 10 favourite nail polishes of all time! I have been wearing it non stop on my nails and feet. The most perfect vibrant indigo shade ever.

Push The Limit - A very pastel sherbet orange creme. Not quite neon but not entirely pastel either. I love it.

Risky Behaviour - A beautiful deep pink creme. Very classic.

Thrill Seeker - This polish is somewhat similar to Push The Limit, in that it isn't entirely a neon, but it's not a pastel either. It's definitely more of a sherbet/borderline neon lime green. My photo does not do it justice - it is much brighter in person!

So which colour is your favourite? Let me know below. Thanks for reading and see you soon!

Kester Black - Autumn Collection

Hi guys! Hope you are well. Today I will be showing you the new Autumn collection by Kester Black which consists of 4 creme colours. As always the formula is perfect, needing 2 coats for full opacity and smoothness, and the brush is the perfect width to paint your nails effortlessly. Kester Black nail polishes retail for $20.00AUD and are available online here. Here's a look at the colours!

Perennial - the perfect salmon pink/coral. My photos make this look too orange for some reason but this is definitely a new favourite of mine and I'm so glad to see brights are still making an appearance in cooler month collections! 

Petra - This is a beautiful, soft, peach skin tone creme. I found it didn't suit my skin tone that well, but this colour would look beautiful on lighter skin tones!

Quartz - This is my least favourite colour from the collection, a mauve-purple-brown creme.

Rust - This is a fantastic colour for Autumn and Winter. It is a deep red/brown creme. It is so edgy and I can't wait to wear this as a nail and lip combo!

So which colours are you most drawn to? Thanks a lot for reading!

Kester Black - New Summer Colours + Trophy Wife Collab!

One of my favourite nail polish brands, Kester Black has released 4 new shades to her Summer Collection and 2 new collaboration shades with Trophy Wife Nail Art. Today I will be reviewing all 6 shades. I cannot get over how amazing the photos to show case them are! For me, the image below evokes so much imagination and inspiration and I love the style a lot. If you wanna see more photos of the new summer collection check it out here. Each photo shows 2 coats of each polish (unless stated) with no top coat. I also have to mention that the brushes are really good and thick, making it so much easier to give you that perfect arch around the cuticle. Check it out below!

 

Summer Collection Shades:

Acid - a gorgeous acid yellow/slightly chatreuse creme that only need 2 coats for full opacity. Such a cool, bright colour in person! Love this one!

Blush - A very soft pale pink/peach creme. Perfect formula.

Sky - A very light blue sky creme. This is such a dreamy shade and perfect for spring.

Violet - A bright pink toned mid purple creme. Arghh purples are so hard to photograph but this colour is more a lighter lavender/pink colour IRL. It remind me of Sation's - Love At First Lavender but just a tad darker.

Trophy Wife Collabaration Shades:

Sugar Daddy - A super dense, highly pigmented silver glitter polish. The first photo shows 1 coat and the second photo shows 2 coats. I could have easily gotten away with 1 coat! So pretty and sparkly in person.

Prenup - A pale purple/periwinkle creme. This colour was also very difficult to capture accurately. It's less blue and slightly more purple. It's so pretty.

These polishes are beyond amazing and I'm so excited to do some nail art with them - using inspiration from those amazing photographs I linked above! Which Kester Black polish is your favourite? I love Acid the most from these new colours as it's so different to anything I own! Thanks for reading and talk soon!

Orly - Secret Society Collection 2013

Hello everyone! Today I have 2 colours from Orly's new Secret Society Collection to show you. They are Risque Encounter* (a slightly off red creme) and Lavish Bash* (a clear base with tiny gold and silver flecks). I used 2 coats of Risque Encounter followed by 1 coat of Lavish Bash. No top coat was used for pictures. The formula on these were good and these are the first Orly's I received with the new black rubber bottle lids. Here's a look at the entire collection!

 

So what do you think of this collection? Anything that sticks out to you? I like the look of Masked Ceremony and Voyeuristic Adventures! Thanks for reading. 

ELES Cosmetics - Masquerade Nail Polish Collection

Hello everyone! Today I'm really excited to show you an Australian brand called ELES Cosmetics (check out their website here) and they are a mineral make up line with healthy skin formulas and all their nail polishes are 3-Free!. They have just released a new nail collection called Masquerade and it consists of 12 colours* inspired by costumed-carnivals and masquerade balls..love it! Each ELES polish is $20 and can be found in selected beauty salons and day spas nationally. So to avoid repeating myself each colour had the same formula and I found them all very easy to use with no problems whatsoever. Each swatch has 2 coats with no top coat.

Vivaldi Blue - A stunning aqua blue creme with silver shimmer. This was a little streaky.

Baroque Bronze - A metallic bronze with a lit within look. This was also a bit streaky. 

Carnivale Copper - This was slightly more orange-toned than copper IRL, like a burnt orange colour.

 Casanova Red - A classic tomato red creme.

Colombina Gold - A shimmery nude gold, looked gorgeous on my skin tone.

Fuchsia Fontana - A really pretty fuchsia duochrome with magenta and purple shimmers.

 

Nude Contessa - A light nude cream. Reminds me of Milky Ways by Lime Crime.

Othello Orange - A super bright neon orange. dries to a matte finish.

 

Phantom Black - A black matte. I was very surprised and delighted to see this one dry matte! YAY!

Purple Royale - A very vibrant grape purple colour. This one was very hard to photograph but this is the truest colour (sorry about the yellow skin colour!)

Tintoretto Teal - A dark forest teal green creme.

Veronese Orchid - A dusky pale lavender creme.

My favourites from this collection was definitely phantom black, vivaldi blue, purple royale and colombia gold! Overall I really like this collection and feel it does represent a masquerade theme very well! There are some colours I have seen many times before but also some that were very unique and gorgeous! Be sure to check out their colours and let me know if you pick any up! Thanks for reading.
