Morning Goddesses
Today I have 3 Pretty Serious polishes to show you. I purchased all these myself, but they are also all available for purchase at my favourite UK e-tailer, Sally Magpies - just click HERE to shop away :)
Pretty Serious is a brand that's come up on rails over the last few months. I love the branding, especially the curvaceous Daphne, and it seems to be a brand that REJOICES in everything feminine. Not only that, they make colours to die for.
Viscous Vampire had been on my wishlist for a while, and looking at it ... gah, seriously, this is one amazing red.
It's a beautiful true red, but laden with shimmer and pink flakies. It is just exploding with wow!
This might just be my very favourite "special" red polish. I have a few that have added awesomeness, but everything about this one, from the glossiness to the pink flecking to the pigmentation, screams winner.
Elliot is .... well, I just can't work out WHAT shade of blue he is. Firstly - this boy did NOT want to be photographed, so bear with me while I explain his complexity.
This is a deep dark turquoise, laden with hidden green. There's a real grungey, murky edge to this polish which the camera has just blanched away. There are petrol tones in here too, but I really don't think I have ever seen a shade of blue like this.
And will you LOOK at those flakies? How special are they?
Emma Louise is is a purple glitter, infused with green. I'm not totally sure that I am in love with this one, but it perfectly displays the quality of the Pretty Serious product.
The application of this glitter was EFFORTLESS - smooth, and easy. I think I have 3 layers here, as I just wanted to level the colour out a little. The opacity is what makes this a winner. I've worn many similar polishes which were a pain to apply, but this really was a pleasure.
Pretty Serious are definitely one of the brands to watch at the moment. They excel at duochromes too, and have a nice "interesting" variety of polishes - you can easily pick up something a little unusual, or something that you don't already have 5 "similar" bottles of.
Enjoy xx :)
