Ludurana ~ Emocionante
Multichrome that
shifts between purple, blue, magenta, golden and probably more that I can’t see
I’m very excited over
polishes from Brazil.
They seem to only make beautiful polishes – shimmery, shiny, holographic,
duochromatic, exactly how I like polishes the most. Let me show you one of my
Brazilian polishes so you can see for yourself. But first – a suitable
underwear! I went for an Alix Avien polish with the number 244. It’s a dark,
squishy purple that I received in a swap with sweet Aylin from Posh Nail Art.
I applied two coats. I would
have gone for three if I had been wearing this on its own. It’s almost a jelly,
but not quite. What’s the name for that? A crelly? A Jreme? :D
Anyway – squishy is a
perfect word for it, and shiny of course too!
Two coats, no top coat:
Then I applied one coat of
Ludurana’s “Emocionante”. It’s a multichrome, but I didn’t want to wear it over
black. The main colour of this polish is purple, which is why I chose the dark
purple as underwear for it. It applies very easily and creates the most amazing
colour shifts. I can’t even imagine what this polish must look like in the
sun!!
Look at this – it’s one coat
over the Alix Avien – and still no top coat:
Then I added some extra
bling. I used a striper from Art Deco called “Ice Breaker”. It’s a clear base
with several sizes of silver glitter. I made two stripes on each nail. I had to
place the glitter… if you only paint a stripe, most of it will be the clear
base :D
One coat of Seche Vite top
coat, and I was done:
On this picture you can see
the colour shift. It shifts from almost bluish purple to a warmer, redder
purple and to magenta. It’s an amazing polish indeed.
And here is the bottle shot:
I am so impressed with these
Brazilian polishes I’ve got, and I find it annoying that it’s such a pain to
get my hands on them. Fortunately I’ve found myself a very sweet swap buddy in Brazil,
so my need for these pretties can be fulfilled :D
What do you think? Is this
pretty or not? Have you got any Brazilian polishes yourself? If yes, which one
do you like the best?
