ysl piment d'ailleurs (spicy)

it's time for yet another ysl perfection, this time it is piment d'ailleurs from the spicy collection from spring 2014.

i might be growing up. not that long ago, i might not even consider wearing a colour like this, and now i'm in love. i think it really looks classy. i'm not much of an expert in red polishes, but i would call this a crimson red. perfect, buttery creme, just the type ysl spoiled me on.

china glaze skyscraper (metro)

i feel like i've been neglecting my china glaze glitters, so i decided to wear skysraper from the metro collection for autumn 2011.

skysraper consists of a denim blue jelly base packed with dense silver glitter. since the base is jelly, for shorter nails two coats would be enough for perfect opacity, but you have to add a third one because of the vnl.

i chose to wear it in one coat over china glaze blue iguana, since it is much easier, but there are picture of it on its own at the end of the post.

overall, i love this polish, as many other cg glitters! it's not in the permanent range, but it's not that difficult to find.

a england fotheringhay castle (elizabeth and mary)

after crown of thislesgloriana and virgin queen, it's time for fotheringhay castle from a england's elizabeth and mary collection from 2015.

everything about this polish is perfect. the hue is a rich, light olive green with this inner light that a english does magically. holo particles are scattered and the effect is just beautiful.

needless to say, the formula is perfection. this polish is definitely on my favourites list!
