a england fotheringhay castle (elizabeth and mary)

after crown of thisles, gloriana 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!

a england crown of thistles (elizabeth & mary)

 it's time for another a england beauty, and this time i chose crown of thistles from elisabeth & mary collection (i have already swatched gloriana and virgin queen from the same collection).

i just can't stop gushing over a england polishes, because they are always so perfect. crown of thistles is such a pretty bright purple, with a quite subtle but still very vivid holo effect.

as usual, the formula is flawless and definitely a recommendation from me.

natural light:

a england gloriana (elizabeth & mary)

after virgin queen, it is about time i've shown another polish from a england's elizabeth and mary collection from back in 2015, and my choice is gloriana.

gloriana is a burnt orange or amber shade loaded with gold foil flecks. it looks so rich, and i can see it not being everyone's cup of tea, but i find it really wearable during autumn and winter.

the formula is great, it is almost a one coater, really nothing to complain about.

natural light:

a england virgin queen (elizabeth and mary)

it's time for another a england beauty, this time it's virgin queen from elizabeth and mary collection.

virgin queen is one of the hardest polishes to describe. the colour is is at the same time taupe, silver, gold, bronze, even olive. pewter is maybe the one that sums it up the best. even at a england they had to resort to using quite a few words: "pewter prismatic hue with pink undertones and a complex grey/olive/copper cast, soft but visible scattered holographic effect"

at the same time, it is slightly metallic and duochrome, but definitely a scattered holo. formula is, as always, impeccable.
