W7 - Metallic Saturn

Evening

How was your weekend? Mine has flown by, Monday again tomorrow :-( Booo!

Another W7 Metallic today, this time Metallic Saturn. This was the shade which I had to order online. Metallic Saturn is a Green/Gold metallic shimmer.





Sunlight








This is 3 coats of Metallic Saturn. Formula slightly thick and application showed some brush strokes. Quite a nice shade, has that brassy/gold burnished metallic look to it (similar to OPI - At Your Quebec and Call, China Glaze - Peace on Earth, Misa - Pepper etc...)

Doesn't look as 'duochromey' (yup a made up word) then Beetlejuice - Gold Green, but I haven't got that to compare.

Got this from a website called WWW.Crazy-Colour.Co.UK, who also stock Barry M and La Femme polishes. Came pretty quick and delivery was free. Price £1.99.

Two more to go!

W7 - Metallic Neptune

Evening All

Another W7 Metallic today, this time Metallic Neptune. A Green/Blue/Purple shimmer duochrome. Soon as I saw this one I thought Leighton Denny - Your Planet or Mine! Need to check a comparison of the two.





I like Metallic Neptune, slightly better coverage and more opaque than Mars. This is 3 coats. Looked really nice on the nail. More of a subtle duochrome in comparison to the first two from the collection, but still lovely.

For those who didn't see on twitter, I missed out on the Models Own Beetlejuice Collection. I was totally devastated and threw a right tantrum lol. Emailed Models Own and the box sets won't be back in stock til the end of November (that's if I don't miss them again!). So these W7's are a nice little distraction.

Enjoy. More swatches to follow.

W7 - Metallic Mercury

Howdy

Happy Friday everyone. Today I have for you the second polish out of the W7 Metallic collection - Metallic Mercury. A plum/brown/gold glass flecked duochrome.





Indoors


This is gorgeous! Only 2 coats needed. Good coverage and much better formula than Metallic Mars. This is everything I hoped Zoya - Valerie would be, although Valerie is that deep delicious purple. Not as strong colour shift in comparison to Mars, but a good effect all the same.

Love the fact that this collections contains not just multichrome/duochrome shimmers, but also glass flecked shades.

Bootiful :-)

Enjoy Folks.

W7- Metallic Mars

Hello Everyone!

Finally, I've got some swatches done! About blooming time. Today I have for you Metallic Mars from the new W7 Metallic collection I showed you a couple of days back. Metallic Mars is a Pink/Purple/Orange/Gold duochrome polish.






Reminds me a lot of Nubar - Iris Dust. Might try and get a comparison done, although I think Iris Dust has more of a brown tone. This is three coats, could of done with a 4th as it's very sheer. Really stinky formula, so guessing it isn't Big 3 free. Drying time was good and I ended up with a lovely glossy finish. A really strong colour shift in this one.

BUT I didn't like it on :-( I'm not a big fan of Iris Dust either, I don't know why? For me it's just a bit too sickly, not tacky, just a bit too much pink for my taste.  Price £1.99 available at Savers.

So first one down. What do you guys think?

New W7 Collection and Color Club Haul

Hello Everyone

No swatches today, my fingers are a bit worse for wear and very unsightly. I thought I would share with you a new W7 collection I picked up this week. W7 Metallic Collection - 6 polishes consisting of duochrome/multichrome shades. I saw this set in TK Maxx for £9.99 but actually got them in Savers for £1.99 each, I'm missing one though!



Left to right: Metallic Venus, Metallic Mars, Metallic Jupiter, Metallic Venus and Metallic Neptune (I'm missing Saturn, but it is on its way to me)

Nice huh? Swatches to follow soon. I also picked three more sets from TK maxx. Color Club Foiled Collection and both sets of the Color Club Back to Boho collection (got the second set yesterday)


Price for the sets? £7.99 each! Really impressed at the price of these. They are actually cheaper then when they were being sold at Olympia Beauty in September. Wholesale price there was £19.99-£21.00.

So check out your local Savers and TK maxx, you never know what you may find!

Enjoy
