Ruby Wing Meadow

Meadow is another polish from the Ruby Wing colour changing collection.  This is the only metallic polish in this collection.

Ruby Wing Meadow - inside

Ruby Wing Meadow - outside

First off, I think they named this polish wrong. Meadow to me means grass and should have been a green polish. 

This is three coats. It applies like a regular metallic polish and is slightly brush strokey.  The colour change in this one is obvious, as it changes from silver in the shade to a mauve-pink metallic in the sun.  

I am not sure if I mentioned this before but these polishes still change colour with a top coat on, and can be a major distraction if you sit near a window at work.

Ozotic 915

I hope everyone had a good Christmas! It is super hot here at the moment so I am just trying not to over heat. We attempted some boxing day shopping today, but the crowds were insane, so we left empty handed and went back home to melt.

Ozotic 915 was my Christmas Day Manicure. It is a subtle green that didn't shout Christmas too loud.  915 is from the 2012 Scatter Chrome collection.

This is three coats. It does not actually have any glitter in it, but is a metallic chrome polish which has scattered holographic particles in it.  It is also slightly duochrome moving from green to a blueish teal in the shade (which you can see in the first picture).  I really like this polish and it was fun to look at all day yesterday in the sun.

You can buy 915 and the three other polishes in this collection from piCture pOlish in Australia or Gracie Lou in New Zealand, as well as a bunch of other online retailers listed on the piCture pOlish website.

Deborah Lippmann Rock This Town Set


Rock This Town is a three piece set of metallic polishes by Deborah Lippmann that is exclusive to Nordstrom.  I bought this set while I was on holiday in America, actually this exact set came from Vegas.

Deborah Lippmann Moon Dance - Natural Light

Moon Dance is described as a deep lavender swirl (glimmer).  This is three coats.  To be honest I am not a fan. It is thin and has a grey base to it.  It has lavender glitter and a smaller amount of copper glitter.

Deborah Lippmann Chain Reaction - Natural Light

Chain Reaction is described as a dirty brass (glimmer).  This one did have a dirty base colour, kind of a grey/green mix and is full of grassy green glitter.  This is three coats.

Deborah Lippmann Phoenix Rising - Natural Light

Phoenix Rising is described as a foxy copper (glimmer).  Interesting descriptions really aren't they?  This is my favourite of the three. This is three coats. This one has a pinky orange base and is full of copper and gold glitter.
