Renaissance Cosmetics - Flirt

Hi Goddesses

Today I have the final one of the 4 polishes I was sent for review by Renaissance Cosmetics, and it may be the most gorgeous of the 4.  Maybe.  Yes.  Possibly.  Oh I don’t know, I loved them all!  

Meet Flirt, a delicious, sexy, complicated mistress of a polish, all decadence and huskiness, weighted with the history of the world, and full of naughtiness.

Flirt is a stunning medium to dark purple holo, bendier than an escort girl and sizzling with blue electricity.  She’s also adorned with flakies, and whilst I don’t usually like anything to disrupt my holo, this all plays together deliciously.  She’s many women rolled into one.

I adored the drama of this on my nails.  A polish of epicness to be sure.

Just as with the other 3 polishes, this was a one-coater (although I did 2), and was just as mind-blowing matte.  I wasn’t sure whether stamping would ruin it, but I love how it creates an oriental and exotic flavour that I wasn’t expecting.

I used an image from Cheeky Jumbo plate 5 and I think I prefer the matted version.  I can’t believe how much light this polish emits when matte.

I totally love this mani, and I’m also full of love for Renaissance Cosmetics.  Although they were sent for review, I wouldn’t hesitate to buy them, especially as most of them are one coaters.  If you want to pick any up, you can grab them HERE.

Renaissance Cosmetics Guest Post - Victorian Roses

Hi Goddesses

Earlier this week, I was the guest post for Renaissance Cosmetics, which is the brand owned by Meghan of Willpaintnailsforfood.  She is one of THE most talented bloggers out there, and now she's diversified into making polish, and a bloody good job she's done there too!

Meghan sent me 4 polishes for review, and next week, you can see all of these individually on my blog, but for today, we have some nail art featuring all 4.


Let's look at the polishes first -
index finger - Rosie-Osie
middle finger - The Danforth
ring finger - Flirt
and the green is Emerald Envy

When I chose these colours, I immediately saw roses in my head, and what gorgeous semi-gothic, Victorian roses they made!   I used Meghan's favourite polish on base - OPI My Vampire Is Buff.

These polishes are intensely rich in colour and all of them are one coaters.  Although I wouldn't usually do this kind of nail art with glitters, they lent themselves admirably to the task.

I did my roses differently this time.  I've just bought the Sam Biddle needle pen, and did some scribbling with the pen to create the petal effect.


These polishes were sent to me for an honest review.  You can buy them - and the fabulous new collection - HERE.
