a england percival (the mythicals)

percival follows the long list of a england the mythicals gems, such as  avalon lady of the lakeexcalibur revamped and tristam.

percival, "splendid & resplendent red",  is a real close dupe to butter london knees up. nevertheless, a beyond gorgeous shimmery metallic red, with this glow within type of look.

i have more photos than usual, because these polishes look better in the  shade than in the sun. combined with an awesome formula and brush, it's a winner!

opi nein nein nein ok fine (germany)

nein! nein! nein! ok fine! is a problematically named polish from opi's 2012 autumn collection, germany. i previously showed every month is oktoberfest.


name aside, nein nein nein is is a gorgeous, full grey. it is dark and deep, but not veering into the almost-black teritory. it might have a hint of olive green undertones.

it is very creamy and rich. formula is still top notch, it is really a great shade.

picture polish honey dew (unknown)

spring is here, and it's time for fresh shades. honey dew is a really old picture polish shade from 2009.

i am very happy i own honey dew, even though i am on the verge of having too many mint polishes (if that is even possible!)  itis such a vibrant pastel mint, on the verge of becoming neon. it is hard to photograph correctly, as it has all the qualities of impossible to capture shades: mint and pastel.

on top of being gorgeous, it has a great formula, especially for a pastel polish. definitely a perfect spring/summer shade!
