Seventeen ~ 539



Seventeen ~ 539
Purple/green/golden multichrome

Here’s a multichrome that I got in a swap with my dear friend Anastasia from Little World of Coloured Nails. When you see how wild the colour shift is, you probably won’t understand why the polish was left to live in my box of untrieds for so long.

I started out with a layer of plain black. I used Essence Back in Black, but I haven’t taken any pictures of this step, since everybody knows what black crème polish looks like. It’s black. When that was dry, I applied two layers of the Seventeen, and after that, a layer of topcoat.

Hold your breath ladies, because here it comes: 539 in all it’s glory:


Look at that colourshift!! 

Here’s a picture that shows this polish’s green and golden side:


And here’s a picture of the purple side – look at that shimmer, isn’t it just amazing!


And both of them together in perfect harmony:


I have to apologize to this lovely polish for letting it wait for so long in the box. It’s really amazing!


Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Average
Finish: Strong colourshift, I’m seriously impressed!
Overall impression: If you’re into chameleon polishes, you should definitely try to get your hands on this one.
Buy again: Yepski

Nail Mail from Russia again - and with love ♥

Once again I've swapped with my dear friend from Russia, Anastasia from Little World of ColouredNails.  The waiting time wasn't as long this time as it has been before. I think it took about 5 weeks this time. So yes, I was thrilled when the mailman arrived with my Russian goodies!!


Here's one half of the polishes: 


And here's the other half: 


 Let's take a closer look at them, shall we. 
First three up are Dance Legends. Lots of glitter, yay!

Dance Legend: 917, Aztec 8 and 920

Two more Dance Legends. I love the brand so I was happy to see five of them in this swap! These two are colour shifters - the left one is textured, and the right one is a flakie! 

Dance Legend: Sahara Crystal 15, and 529

Then there's a couple of brands I also recognize, Pupa and Jeanmishel. Pretty shimmers both of them: 


Pupa 726 and JeanMishel (name is in Russian :) )

Here's a pretty couple too, Eva and Bell. Eva is pink hologlitter and Bell is a blue/purple glittertopper: 

Eva 085 and Bell Glam Night sparkle 03

Then there's a brand I've been wanting to try for a while: El Corazón. This is a pretty pink with black "dots" that look like tiny poppy seeds. And Seventeen - a beautiful duochrome called 539

El Corazón Dotty Girl and Seventeen 539

Divage is a brand I've received from Anastasia before. They're so pretty, so I welcome another member of that family. It's a blue/red/purple/golden duochrome. Aurelia is new to me, but wow! She's absolutely gorgeous. I love the colour shift in her! 

Divage Special effects 4908 and Aurelia 405

Holo and glitter is always welcome. Dona Mirella is a silver holographic glitter. I can't see the name of the Max Factor, but it's black with silver shimmer.


Dona Mirelle 010 (I think) and Max Factor unnamed

The last polish of them all is very special to me already. It's a multicoloured glitter leaning green. And the best of it is that it's a frankenglitter made especially for me. I'm thrilled! ♥

 I also received a new handcream - perfect timing, because the one I got last time we swapped is almost empty. Then there's nail wraps and what I believe is a lip balm with cherry. It's something with cherry anyway :D


Handcream, nail wraps and maybe lipbalm


Anastasia also sent me a necklace with a cute pendant. 


There was also candy, but I didn't get to photograph that, sorry! 

That's my great Russian swap. Thank you so much, Anastasia for making this a great one! ♥
