When Llarowe launched Emily de Molly the first time round, I snatched Black Forest. I simply had to have this polish since I live close by the German Black Forest (just in case there is more than one out there).
I applied two coats of Emily de Molly Black Forest over one coat of A England Camelot. Application was rather easy since this polish is so ladden with glitter, I just had to dab very few extra pieces on the one or the other nail. I used A England the Knight Base Coat and Butter London Hardwear Top Coat.
And because this polish is so incredibly unique another photo. I am sorry for the crappy look of my cuticles but I was in the middle of a cleaning frenzy at home and had to run some errands outside. I looked down at my hands, nearly fell over and just snapped away this photo. And this is what it looked like on an overcast day - I cannot even begin to imagine what this might look in the sun....
Final thoughts: an extrordinary polish that is totally unique in my stash. I was very pleased with the formula, the quality of the glitter and the effortless application.
What was the last polish you bought because of the name?
I ordered Emily de Molly Black Foret with Llarowe .
I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!

This one is waiting in my stash, too.
ReplyDeleteI bought 3/4 of the OPI Skyfall collection because of their names. If it weren't a Bond collection, I might have bought one or two...
Oh ja, I remeber I basically had to chain myself to prevent me from buying the whole lot, the names were too tempting LOL
DeleteThis is gorgeous! I haven't tried any Emily de Molly polishes but clearly I need to! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn, let me know which ones you pick!!! I got two more that I am already exited to show - Yay!!!!! Thank you :-)
DeleteI've heard such good things about this brand! This is so pretty! And clearly I need this, too, because my ancestors hailed from the Black Forest area. And apparently (so I'm told, anyway) my name's spelling is indicative of that region, too. Oh, and nice last shot! Sometimes I hnk colors look prettier in the shade-- glossier, more vivid, you know?
ReplyDeleteThank you Liesl :-) Your name jumped out to me because of its familiarity immediately ;-) I have tried only this polish so far, two more are cueing ;-). You are right, I also observed that some colors just look at their best in the shade
DeleteBeautiful polish!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've bought any polish because of the name...
Thank you Ina :-) Haha how good of you!!! I have to admit that not all my name-related purchases were worth it ;-)
