Hits- Afterglow over Eyeko- Vamp Polish

I have an interesting layering combination composed of two international brands. This is Hits- Afterglow layered over Eyeko- Vamp Polish

Afterglow is a multi color-shifting glitter! It shifts from purple to pink to orange, and indoors you see primarily blue and purple.

Afterglow was very concentrated so I only needed one coat of it. It applied very evenly.

Here you can see some of the blue.

This was mesmerizing! 

I took this picture indoors without the flash, because it looks completely different in low lighting. 

Here is Eyeko- Vamp Polish before adding Afterglow. Vamp Polish is actually a very dark blue creme.  It looks black though. It had a great formula and applied in two even coats.

I hoped that capturing it with the flash, you'd be able to see the dark blue base, but it still looks black. My hands are so dry! This winter is brutal. Sadly, Eyeko has discontinued their nail polish. I just loved the cute little jars and the labeling! 

Green with Gold Glitter

Over the weekend I wore Zoya- Evvie topped off with Stila- City Lights. Zoya Evvie is from this fall's NYFW Designer collection, but it was released earlier this year in the limited edition Peter Som gift box. I do not know if City Lights is from a collection since it is in a mini bottle.

 These two shades were a great combination together. Green and gold usually look nice paired.

City Lights was a prismatic gold glitter. I only layered one coat of it over Evvie. In this blurred picture, you can see the different colors the glitter reflects.

 I took a couple pictures of Evvie before I layered City Lights over it. This is with the flash. Here it looks almost like a muted greenish gray, but it's much more green.

Without the flash, it is pretty accurate how this color looks in low lighting. The gold glitter brightened it up a lot though so that it didn't look as dark. Evvie is a pretty dark grayed green with some blue hints to it. It is definitely a fall color, but I'll wear those year-round. It also applied flawlessly with two coats.

I got some more epic nail mail for my birthday!!!

 I am in a local swap group on facebook and we participated in a secret swap. Sara from Spicey'z Nails was my partner. She sent me some sweet polish plus tons of goodies!! I got Hits-Afterglow, Essie- Mojito Madness, Sally Hansen- Purple Pizzazz, and a mini of Color Club-Wicked Sweet (which I hear smells like blue raspberry)

I also found a blog sale with some awesome vintage gems!! Here's Mary Kay- Mulberry Spice and Mocha Freeze, Maybelline- Ultra Violet and Terra Cotta, Wet n Wild- Black Ice and 428B, MAC-Butter, Sally Hansen- Purple Power and Lime Pop, and Wet n Wild- Love Affair
