opi muir muir on the wall (san francisco)

opi's muir muir on the wall is one of thehidden gems from san francisco collection for autumn 2013. another polish i own from this collection is alcatraz...rocks.

muir muir on the wall is somehow getting neglected in opi's world of gorgeous darkened shimmers, and it's completely unfair. it is such a gorgeous blackened plum/burgundy shade, with goldish shimmer and a slight duochrome effect.

it's a very gorgeous, elegant but mysterious polish. formula is awesome and it is definitely a polish i would recommend.

natural light:

dior galaxie (mystic metallics)

dior's 2013 autumn collection consisted out of two "mystic metallics" polishes, destin (not my cup of tea) and today's star, galaxie; together with their first attempt at magnetic polishes, mystic magnetic.

galaxie is the perfect polish for cold, winter days that are quickly approaching. it reminds me of cosy winter nights, spent indoors with friends,  mulled wine and smoke. ah, i miss the days of indoor gatherings.!

the colour is so rich, burgundy-ish plum, with gorgeous dense shimmer that makes the polish borderline metallic. application, consistency and brush are just as i like it, so nothing to complain about there.

ysl vintage plum (scandal)

in 2016, ysl launched a gorgeous fall duo in scandal collection. i've already shown fur green, and today it's time for vintage plum.

vintage plum is a classy but vampy dark red- purplish-plum shade. it may not be the most unique shade in the world, but it is one of those that fit every skin tone.

as usual, the formula is impeccable and  it is really easy to apply it.

chanel provocation (fashion night out 2012)

chanel's provocation originally appeared in their fashion night out collection for 2012 (with infidele, the one that got away for me), but it was  brought back as a part of the permanent line.

 it is a gorgeous, gorgeous plum shade. of course, the colour is a bit more complex than that, it has some brown undertones and dries a bit darker than in the bottle.

the first coat is a bit sheer but it builds up nicely with the second one. it a classy but not boring sort of polish.

i wore base coat (china glaze strong adhesion) + two coats of polish  + top coat (essence btgnts)
