a england katyusha (russian soul)

i am showing you katyusha, another a england beauty from their 2016  russian soul collection. so far, we saw polovetsian dances, waltz of the flowers, natasha's dance.

a england creator always has a way with words, and the description of this absolute beauty is: "dramatic and unique flashing of rainbow hues, like a light opal on a precious holographic base."

oh, how to describe this shade other than pure magic? the shade is not really silver and not really gold, but somewhere in that area. it is rich, shimmery metallic holo, and take from that what you will. i guess it is one of these polishes where words are not enough, so i overdid it a bit with photos.

a england polovetsian dances (russian soul)

i am showing you another a england beauty from their russian soul collection, and this time is polovetsian dances. so far, we saw waltz of the flowers and natasha's dance.

i love this polish. love it! it is a blackened purple with a hint of blurple. unfortunately, a bit more blurple in my photos than in real life. the holo effect is just perfect, just as in the rest of the collection.

formula is, as usual, flawless. i highly recommend this polish.

a england waltz of the flowers (russian soul)

after natasha's dance, i am showing another little gem from a england's russian soul collection, waltz of the flowers.

even though i own many a england polishes at this point, painting my nails in their polishes feels like a treat every time, and waltz is not an exeption. it is advertised as " a light blue purple multichrome with hints of lilac and a dazzling hologram effect " and there is little to argue about there.

waltz is super pretty, with a strong holo and in a strange way, silver-looking purple shade that has sort of a metallic feel to it. formula is, as usual, flawless.

a england natasha's dance (russian soul)

the first beauty i am showing from a england russian soul collection is natasha's dance.

i reread war and peace every few years, so i clearly remember the natasha's dance part in the book.

i'm not sure whether i should call it blackened blue or blue-toned black,  but it is a dark one. in direct sunlight it is obvious that it's not a pure black. it has this vibrant holographic shimmer that makes it pop out, but looks spectacular in shade as well.
