Hello lovelies,

I couldn't resist and I also purchased the new I Love Nail Polish Ultra Chromes, all four of them! I wanted to do one post with all four but there's so many pictures that I will post each shade separately and then I'll do one summary post with the whole collection. They are all so gorgeous! The first up is Birefringence...

Birefringence - a multichrome blue changing into purple and burnt orange. Holy moly this is beautiful polish! It looks absolutely unbelievable underwater (last pics) and it keeps changing in different light and angles.

I've applied one coat of Birefringence over black (A England Camelot). It was little streaky thanks to the brush. The brush has quite hard bristles so it drags the polish a bit. I've heard ILNP has changed brushes to better ones but I don't know if I have the old or new ones. It dried fast and I've applied top coat as well. Let's check out the pictures!

I Love Nail Polish Birefringence - Review & swatches

Wow, I still can't get over how gorgeous it is! There was even more burnt orange and reddish tones but they appeared in a low light and it was impossible for me to take pictures.

The whole Ultra Chromes collection can be purchased at I Love Nail Polish website. If you've already purchased them let me know what you think!

Have a lovely day everyone!

Hello lovelies,

I love experimenting with the one stroke technique and this time I've tried to do a golden veil. I started with two coats of SpaRitual Last Tango. Then I started to paint the first layer of the 'veil' and once it dried properly I've done the second layer to achieve opaque look.

Firstly I took pictures straight after I painted the 'veil' so the nail polish part is glossy and the painting is matte. Then I added topcoat so all of it is glossy and in the end I mattified it all with OPI Matte Top Coat. I think I liked the matte version best.
