picture polish unicorn (collaboration shade by brit nails)

one of my favorite picture polish purchases is a collaboration shade, unicorn.



this shade is made in collaboration with the blog brit nails. it is a really interesting polish, the base colour is a soft, blue leaning turquoise, enriched with pink and silver glitter.

there is a slight bumpiness because of the chunky glitter, but it is not overwhelming and it is actually interesting. the first layer is a bit sheer, but it builds up nicely with the second.

dior metropolis (cosmopolite)

 my only pick from dior's 2016 fall collection, cosmopolite, is metropolis.

my first instinct was to ignore the entire collection, but metropolis was really screaming my name. pictures are slightly darker than what it looks like in real life, but it is definitely darker than the promo image. i never knew that there will ever be a polish that's at the same time green and grey, but, to my joy, dior made it!

the formula is flawless and the polish just so gorgeous.  it might look like a simple shade, but it is so deep and pretty.  it definitely has my recommendation.

a england cathy (to emily bronte)

it's been a while since i wrote about a england polishes, so i'm going for cathy from to emily bronte collection. i've already shown let me in and wuthering heights.

i am seriously in love with cathy. the shade is so pretty, so unique. it is a pale, unusual grey with a hint of lillac, combined with subtle holo effect with some iridescent blue shimmer that makes it stand out even more.

formula is slightly thicker than you would expect, but nice and creamy nevertheless.
