PRESS SAMPLES AHEAD VERY PICTURE HEAVY |
MYTHOLOGICAL NIGHT COLLECTION
Heeeeey errybody! ;) Today I have 7 beautiful new polishes from Starlight and Sparkles to show you.I am excited to be working with them as I love shimmer polishes, especially shifty ones. I have noticed that they don't seem well known which is such a shame.
Issa is debuting a new 10 piece collection titled Mythological Night and a new Mythological creature that is included in this and 2 other lines. There will be 5 blackened jelly color shifting shimmers and 5 black glitter and shimmer polishes. Most of these colors are the dark counterparts to light versions already available, except Kelpie and Chimera which are new.
I received 5 polishes from the Mythological Night collection and 2 Chimera polishes, additions to Mythological topcoats and Mythological.Auroras. I will give details of each individual polish as I go. These color shifting shimmers are so pretty and vampy but I actually fall in love with a topper. Who AM I? It's that good.
I really tried to a get nice outdoor group shot of these but the mosquitoes were insane! I covered completely up except my hands and face and they still bite my face 3 times in the 5 minutes I did this :/.Okay, let's get down to business, to defeat...err i mean..swatches!! (I have been on a musical kick lately, even more than usual :p. I watched 4 Disney and Pixar movies today while doing all of this.)
DRAGON NIGHT
Mythological Night Collection
This is a cool black base with shimmer that shifts through bronze/gold, emerald green, and flashes of orange and teal at the edges and extreme angles. I didn't get to see teal but I haven't had a chance to wear it for a few days and observe it in all lighting conditions.
Coats: 2 thick, with topcoat
Price: $14.00 for 15 ml and $6.50 for 5 ml

KELPIE NIGHT
Mythological Night Collection
Kelpie Night is described as a cool black base with shimmer that shifts from teal to violet and flashes aqua and purple at the extreme edges. I wasn't able to observe or capture the violet or purple but it's definitely there in the bottle. I didn't have ideal lighting conditions today.
Coats: 3 regular coats with topcoat
Formula: easy to use, these do not run or pool but are a little streaky. Getting more polish on my brush solves the problem.
Price: $14 for 15 ml, $6.50 for 5 ml

Daylight. I did this reverse stamping using all 4 of the Mythological Night polishes that I received. Stamp is Emily de Molly circle plate 12, and different Dimension Not in the Loop. |
PHOENIX NIGHT
Mythological Night Collection
This has a cool black base that shifts from red to gold to green and flashes vivid red and bright green at extreme angles. It's what some may call unicorn pee ;). It shows mainly red in direct lighting but those other colors are there.
Coats: 3 regular coats, top coat
Formula: same as the others, built up easily.
Price: $14.00 for 15 ml, $6.50 for 5ml

CHIMERA AURORA NIGHT
Mythological Night Collection
Cool black base containing the shimmers used in Phoenix,Unicorn,Dragon, and Kelpie (also new!) polishes and iridescent glitter used in the Auroras. There isn't an obvious color shift but Issa describes Chimera as a points of light effect and I agree.
Coats: 3 with topcoat.
Formula: easy to use and builds up really well. Removal required very little force and no special methods.
Price: 15 ml: $16.50, 5 ml: $7

Did you make to the bottom ? Congrats and thank you! These will be releasing the evening of Friday the 13th, I don't have an exact time. I can't wait to see swatches of the other 8, especially Kelpie polishes! Do you have a favorite here? I'm clearly a green lover but I'm pretty sure everyone needs Chimera and it's a such a good price for a topper with these pigments. Follow Starlight and Sparkles for updates, I will link social media below.
International customers, these will be available soon at Psyche's Beau.

I love how versatile the toppers are! Chimera Aurora is my favorite though! <3 Lovely swatches!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love that they don't cloud the base.
