Orly-Sweet Peacock

 
This blue by Orly is very bright, lots of pigment, but the polish needs a bit of thinner: is too dense. It has a metallic finish and a grainy appearance.

Un azul bien encendido y pigmentado, aunque necesita un poco de suavizante ya que es bien denso. Tiene un acabado metalico y una apariencia granulosa.

この 青い は  とても  ブリリアント です、ても すこし  欝蒼 ですよ。

Questo blu di orly é molto acceso, purtroppo con una formula molto densa: bisogna qualche goccia di fluido ristorativo. Ha un finish metallico e un aspetto granuloso.

Zoya -Isla and Comparisons





"Isla" is a glowy, blackened red. I dare to say that if you have her you don't need Zoya "Blair" or China Glaze "MKS", but to my eye Isla is the reddest, though, the prettiest.

Fyrinnae 2011 Swatches.




Good Afternoon. My new fyrinnae order. It was a long time since the last time i purchased from them, but finally they released some new products, but sadly i couldn't get the two new lip lustres and the silica gel primer i want to try: they were out of stock.
There are better swatches out there of these colors, but i am too excited to share. The colors on my monitor mostly match what i see irl, i hope descriptions can be also helpful in what pictures can't.

Row 1:

Book of the dead: A cool gold shade with rainbow-y sparkles, i think they are not that visible.
Steampunk: I got it just like so, because the definition of a "copper/brown" color is not my like, but i wanted to try it anyway, at 2 dollars a mini eyeshadow of course i could give it a try. Gladly it has pink shimmer: makes it more wearable for me.
Curioser and Curioser: Too pretty! a rich blue, somehow metallic with tons of blue sparks.
Raven's prophecy: WOW! a smooth black LOADED with purple, gold and green glitter. Now one of my favorites eyeshadows ever.
Wake not the dead: WOW, WOW! a satiny purple with what to my eyes are pink tones, and with an overload of that amazing super sparkly glitter in different well coordinated colors. Goes straight up to my favorites.
Bride of Franken: Medium teal shade, a lot more blue than green, just as i like. Sparse rainbow-y shimmer. Totally love this.

Row 2:

Purgatory. Oh man...a shimmery red, despite being too warm for what i prefer, is too beautiful to ignore.
Mephisto: a strong copper veil on top of a velvety purple, but i couldn't get the purple to show...
Alchemist curse: dark purple with amazing sparkle: how not to love?
Are you my mummy?: i got a full size of this because of the "strong pink shift", i twisted my hand in every possible angle and couldn't see any...i should have taken full size of "wake not the dead" instead.
Winter again: another shade i cherish. Icy, iridescent blue.
Nijiro: Buttery color, very smooth. The multi color shimmer is too hidden.

Row 3:

Bite me: a deep red, looks warm in here. For sure it will be bitten when i'll wear it as a lippy.
Sleepy hollow: Deep teal with gold shimmer.
Darling misfit: WOW!! a cool fuchsia/hot pink with an incredible turquoise shifting, freaking love this one.
Sugar skull (free sample): thanks God was free. Warm reddish hot pink.
Dorian grey: Dark charcoal with sparse blue sparkles.

Zoya Revisited.






 

Crystal and Valerie: two of my favorites from Zoya. Crystal has more foil finish than Valerie. Now i would like to have an icy blue like Crystal but with silver sparkles.

Dos de mis favoritos de Zoya. Crystal tiene un aspecto mas metalico respecto a Valerie, pero es un morado con una bellisima pigmentacion.

ベター  写真 を 撮 りました。 この ふかむらさき と あおい が とても すき です


Crystal e Valerie sono fra i miei preferiti di Zoya. Crystal é piu' metallico rispetto a Valerie, ma quest'ultimo ha una ricchezza del colore fenomenale.

Zoya-Petra









Whatever color this one is, i truly like it. Visible purple tones in a base i don't know what is: brown? grey?
Another passepartout color, goes well everywhere. Ah! and the consistency: chimera of cream and jelly, Looove!

Zoya-Neeka



"Neeka" has an unglittery particle, i thought it was a cooler polish, i like it somehow, but these not shiny speckles are not my cup of tea.

Zoya-Posh


Matte Polish, velvety texture. Is not dark, but it transmits to me a vampy/gothic atmosphere.

Esmalte opaco, textura aterciopelada. Aun sin ser obscuro, me da un toque vampiresco.

Zoya ゛ポーシ゛。 マッテ  ネイル です。

Smalto opaco, apparenza vellutata. Non é scuro, ma mi sembra comunque un po' "vampy".
