Happy Humpday!
Today I have another AMAZING collection from another of my favorite indie brands, Pretty and Polished. This collection is themed around the concept of "Fall-ing in love", in the Fall. Get it, get it? I think it is freaking adorable!! The theme of the collection is very evident in the names of the colors, which are so cute and punny. This is a really fun take on Fall, and I love the variety of colors and textures. Chels did an awesome job on these!!
To see close up swatches of these awesome shades just keep on reading ♥.
All of these swatches are shown with a top coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.Pretty & Polished Love is Autumn-atic
Love is Autumn-atic is a glitterbomb of EPIC Fall proportions. The blend is a cool mix of Gold, Copper and Orange micro glitter in a clear base. This pretty is PAAAACKED with glitter and does great in Two coats. I absolutely adore the finish of this glitterbomb, it looks like sparkly crushed leaves.
Pretty & Polished You Make me Feel Gourdgeous
Gahh!!! OMG I love this so hard!!! You Make me Feel Gourdgeous is a perfect mix of Fuchsia, Light Blue, Cobalt and Purple small hexes in a purple jelly base. I used Three coats of this glittery beauty for my swatch. The finished result is very mermaid-y and just so pretty and sparkly! Like little crushed gems on my nails.
Pretty & Polished Over the Harvest Moon for You
Over the Harvest Moon for You is a magical shade!! The base on this pretty is a suuuper pretty shade of Cerulean Blue jelly with holo sparkles. The base is accented with soo many different shapes of Blue, Silver and Black glitter. I can pick out Black rectangles, Silver moons and Blue dots and hexes. The effect is like a "Lunar Sea", just beautiful, unique and so complex. I used Three thin coats.
Pretty & Polished H-equinox my Socks Off
H-equinox my Socks Off is a lovely take on a Taupe shade. The base is a really flattering shade of shimmering Taupe accented with small hexes in a warm Gold and Aqua. I used Three thin coats for my swatch.
Pretty & Polished When Hearts Kaleidoscope
How beautiful is this shade?! When Hearts Kaleidoscope is a beautiful shade of berry-toned crelly base accented by Orange, Fuchsia and Gold glitter in varying shapes and sizes. I am madly in love with the blend of glitters against the base color. I kinda wanted to eat my nails haha. I used Three thin coats for my swatch.
Pretty & Polished Leaf me Breathless
Leaf me Breathless is a really unique Yellow jelly based glitter blend. The Yellow base is accented with White, Red, Brown, Green and Gold glitter. What is cool about this polish is the mix of sparkling and matte glitters. The Yellow base is actually right up my alley. In the bottle, I was really unsure of how I felt about this shade, but I love it on the nail. I used Three thin coats.
Pretty & Polished Rake a Little Piece of my Heart
Another big win for me! Rake a Little Piece of My Heart is a beautiful peachy crelly base accented with Orange, Copper, Red and Gold glitter in varying shapes and sizes. I love the use of dots, hexes and squares in the beautiful peachy base. I used Three thin coats for my swatch.
Pretty & Polished Forever my Pumpking
Forever my Pumpking is a hot Orange matte jelly. Yes, a matte jelly :D. This shade is accented by subtle opalescent flakes. I used Three thin coats for my swatch.
Pretty & Polished How's About a Roll in the Hay over P&P For Sweater or Worse
How's About a Roll in the Hay is a pretty mix of Marigold, Satin White and Pastel yellow hexes, bars and shards in a clear base. This topper is really easy to work with and has a great spread of glitter for how chunky it is. I used Two coats of the topper over my base color.
Pretty & Polished For Sweater or Worse
For Sweater or Worse is a beautiful Royal Purple creme. This color is not the most unique, but it is definitely pretty and classic. The formula on this shade is really amazing, smooth and even. I used Two easy coats for my swatch.
I didn't really find any problems with the formulas on any of these colors. The glitters have great spreads, the jellies are smooth and the creme was buttery. I adore the concept behind these shades, and Chelsea's take on Fall trends. My favorites have to be Love is Autumn-atic, You Make me Feel Gourdgeous, Over the Harvest Moon For you and Rake a Little Piece of my Heart, though I really adore all of the shades in this release. This collection will be available for purchase on September 5th!
