SwatchTv Presents: Girly Bits - Crantini

Hi there, hope everyone's Christmas was Merry and Happy for those that celebrate it. Today's feature brings you the last of Girly Bits's Holiday 2013 collection with Crantini. Described as a cranberry linear holo with loads of sparkle, I cannot stress enough how magical this beauty is in person. In addition to having a nice holo flame indoors and outdoors, there's tiny beautiful blue iridescent glitter scattered throughout the polish to give it even more oomph. I've tried to hi-light them in my swatch photos, but you'll best catch them in one of my daylight shade photos. Though looking at my nails as I type I can see the blue specks twinkling back at me almost as if they're winking. Anywho enjoy the swatches below.

SwatchTv Presents: Girly Bits - Auld Langs Wyne

Press Sample
Heya folks! Still under the (overcast) weather over here, but no worries, it's given me ample time to wrap some gifts and bring you today's mani. Without further introduction today's feature is Girly Bits Auld Langs Wyne. Described as a muted burgundy holo this polish sings chameleon. Packed with plenty of holo this baby seems to skirt the line between very bright to muted and borderline vampy. This year has seen a lot of burgundy holos and I'm proud to say this beauty stands quite unique among the rest. I wear it here at 3 thin coats and no top coat.

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.
