Poetry Cowgirl Nail Polish Victorian Christmas Collection Swatch and Review and Day 1 of 25 Days of Polish Giveaway
11:55 PM**Press Samples**
But first, I get to show you the gorgeous Victorian Christmas Collection from Poetry Cowgirl Nail Polish. It's so nice to have this brand back on the blog. It has been far too long (since my anniversary giveaway I believe). The Victorian Christmas Collection is a set of seven polishes...mostly metallic shimmers with a crelly and a topper mixed in there. Each color and name is inspired by various Victorian Era Christmas things: songs, decorations, clothing, games, etc... I don't know much about this era, but the polishes are rich and elegant. Both words I definitely use to describe the Victorian Era. Keep reading to find out more and to enter the giveaway.
**WARNING PICTURE HEAVY**
Tinsel
Tinsel is described as "a fun glitter topper packed with red, gree, gold, silver, and white glitter".
Shown is one coat of Tinsel over Caroling Dress with top coat.
Tinsel is simple and classic, yet fun and versatile. You get a good amount of glitter out with one dip into the bottle. If you want more glitter, I suggest going with the sponging method. You'll maximize the amount of glitter on your nail without all the excess base to thicken your nail. I've paired it with Caroling Dress (from the same collection) so you can see it over a contrasting color. They paired beautifully!
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
Peppermint Candy
Peppermint Candy is described as "a creamy white crelly packed with Tinsel glitters and added holo sparkles".
Shown is two coats of Peppermint Candy with top coat.
Peppermint Candy is light and lovely and will have you craving that sweet minty treat. It's no secret I love a good white crelly. This one is no exception. Beautiful application with just the right amount of glitter. If you're one who wants more glitter, top it off with Tinsel! It's the same glitter! Why not?
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
Silver Sleigh Bells
Silver Sleigh Bells is described as "a light antiqued silver shimmer with a metallic finish".
Shown is three coats of Silver Sleigh Bells with top coat.
Silver Sleigh Bells just might be that perfect silver polish. It isn't so bright that it is blinding. It is borderline grey, but it is definitely an antiqued silver. Smooth application, light brush strokes are still seen, but that is normal with metallics. It is slightly sheer, so three coats would be best. I'm not the best stamper, but it would be worth a shot with this one!
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
Gold Trinkets
Gold Trinkets is described as "a warm antiqued gold shimmer with a metallic finish".
Shown is three coats of Gold Trinkets with top coat.
Gold Trinkets is almost an olive toned gold. It's a beautiful shade, almost satin like. Beautiful application and formula, it is a metallic so expect some brush strokes still visible. It's not too bad. Such a beautiful polish. I almost want to paint some trinkets this color to leave on my mantle.
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
Parlor Games
Parlor Games is described as "a rich dusty red shimmer with a metallic finish".
Shown is two coats of Parlor Games with top coat.
Parlor Games is a beautiful, year round, rose red. It's one of those basics that you want to keep on hand because you never know when you'll need a good red. Gorgeous polish with a smooth application. It is a bit more opaque than the first two so only two coats is needed to get full coverage. I bet it would stamp too!
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
Under the Mistletoe
Under the Mistletoe is described as "a soft dusty green shimmer with a metallic finish".
Shown is two coats of Under the Mistletoe with top coat.
Under the Misteletoe made me swoon the moment I saw it. The shade of green gives me warm fuzzies. The slight metallic finish is the icing on the cake in this instance. Two flawless coats will get you to full opacity. Use it on its own or in some nail art. You won't be able to go wrong.
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
Caroling Dress
Caroling Dress is described as "a rich dusty blue shimmer with a metallic finish".
Shown is two coats of Caroling Dress with top coat.
Caroling Dress might be my surprising favorite of the bunch. This shade of blue is rich and beautiful. Anyone would want to wear a dress this color. Perfect for a girls night out! The was the one that didn't really show the brush strokes either. Definitely a nice touch!
$6 (mini)/$10 (full)
