SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - Oops(Addicts Attack Oops?)

Hey folks, got another purple for you today. I have Colors by Llarowe - Oops. This shares its name with several polishes. So what is an Oops? To put it simply it's a polish that the maker, Llarowe, made while pouring an official polish batch. They can't be sold so you'll usually find them in grab bags. Unfortunately there's no real way to identify these from one another based on name, but many people like to name them based on polishes they may or may not resemble. This one is often referred to to as "Addicts Oops" as it looks like a less blingtastically holographic version of Addicts Attack. I'm not sure how they compare but I would describe it as a pink based purple creme with cool undertones and light linear holo. Checkout the swatches below

SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - Seahawks Lime

Hey folks sporting another oldie today. Today I have for you Colors by Llarowe - Seahawks Lime. Much like the name this is a lime green holographic. It's a pretty simple shade, bright but not neon and truly green without leaning yellow-green. This makes it surprisingly wearable. As you may have guessed this shade was inspired by the Seattle Seahawks and their team colors. It comes from a 4 piece collection commemorating each Superbowl team's Team Colors. I'll share the companion shade another day. For now enjoy the swatches below

SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - Woman From Tokyo

Hey there listeners! I've been relishing in being phlegm and cough free this week and hard at work swatching on the regular. Today's feature is Colors by Llarowe - Woman from Tokyo. For those of you familiar with rock history you may know the band and discography from which this polish gets its namesake. And the answer is...Deep Purple, famous to guitar 101 classes everywhere for their simple but catchy riff on the single "Smoke on the Water". Anywho, if you haven't noticed already, this polish is described as a DEEP purple (heh heh) with strong linear holo pigment. I love little polish puns. Part of the reason I buy polish is for the name. I mean a polish by any other name would still shine as bright, but it's a nice touch I think. Look out below for more swatches and SwatchTv

SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - Oh Christmas Tree

Hey there polish elves! How's the new year treating you? A bit of out with the old and in with the new? Speaking of old, my Christmas tree is looking a little worse for wear these days. It evokes the image of A Charlie brown christmas which is charming I assure you, but decidedly flammable. So today's feature gives a proper sendoff to the Douglas Firs and Virginia Pines that brightened up our spirits this crazy time of year. I give you Colors by Llarowe - Oh Christmas Tree. Described as a deep deep forest green holographic, this polish shines in the evening light. Llarowe really has a handle on these dark deep holos. They're highly pigmented and yet still have a strong flame in every lighting situation you might come across. No Christmas lights needed. Enjoy some swatches below.

SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - Man in the Red Suit

Hey there carolers and those of good cheer. It's officially that window between Post-christmas and New Year's Eve where nobody wants to go to work or anything. A sort of calm before the storm. I'm still working hard-ish and bringing you a semi-frequent feed of polishes. Today's feature is Colors by Llarowe Man in the Red Suit. Indicative of its name, Man is described as a true red holo. Many a polish addicts have sought out a 3-free color such as this so it was quite a promise for Llarowe to make and boy oh boy did she deliver. This is the closest to true red I've ever seen. It does lean slightly pink in some lightings, particularly extreme angles, but eh that's the nature of the beast called holo pigment. Have fun with the swatches below.

SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - Paper Moon

Hey there! Today's feature is another CbL and from the recently launched Winter 2013 collection. I give you the stunning intense holo, Paper Moon. Described as light lilac and falling in the pastel purple family this one has been a total win for me. I was legitimately disappointed when I had to take this off. But like all good things, they must come to an end...albeit a brief one. I'm definitely gonna keep this one close at hand for a threepeat mani hehe. Have a look at these swatches and maybe you'll see why

SwatchTv Presents: Colors by Llarowe - In the Navy

Hey there folks and welcome to an unofficial irregular Flashback Friday. Today's feature goes back to the roots of SwatchTv back on instagram with a revisit to one of my first swatches and holos, Colors by Llarowe In the Navy. Like its Village People namesake, this color is a deep Navy linear holo. I like to think of this as the first big jaw dropped from Colors by Llarowe in that it's saturated and mega holo. Back in early June when production started for the brand holos like this were a triumph when they mastered saturation and holo linearity. Anywho I'll let the swatches do the talking for now.

Hello all, it appears turkey day is on the horizon. While people are scrambling for last minute cranberry sauces and boarding red-eye flights to their hometowns in Kansas, Texas, and Arkansas, I am swatching. Today's feature is Colors by Llarowe Beat It. Described as a charcoal grey holographic with a blue flash, this beauty was released as part of a Tribute to Michael Jackson Collection released earlier this year.
