W7 Metallic Saturn (the former nameless)


Another friend I met through Instagram is sweet Bo_Anne from the Netherlands. We did a polish swap some months back and she sent me some amazing W7 polishes - another IPFs   (impossible to find) in Switzerland. This beautiful metallic olive polish had me exited the second I layed my eyes on it.




I applied two coats of the W7 over Butter London Nailfoundation. I found the formula easy to work with though prone to brushstrokes. I tried to apply featherlight strokes to prevent the brushstrokes not entirely successful though. Dry time is fantastically short.

Final thoughts: I never thought this would work so well with my skin tone as olive toned polishes are very difficult for me to carry off well. Metallic Saturn (the former nameless) though made me feel elegant with a twist - what a win to my stash!!!!

I have two questions for you today: anybody out there who knows the name of this polish? And I wanted to know which color is difficult for you to carry off?

AMENDMENT: Lovely Anna from Pretty Digits put me on the right track regarding the name of this polish - thank you Anna!!! I could identify it as W7 Metallic Saturn :-)

I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!

    Hi love!
    What a gorgeous colour! It really suits you well!
    I don't know the name of this polish I'm afraid...
    I can't carry off purple. My hands turn blue... Such a shame because there are so many gorgeous purples out there... :/

      Thank you cupcake :-)!!! Anna from Pretty Digits put me on the right track to source the name of it - it is Metallic Saturn!!! Oh bummer, purple is one of my favorite polish colors (next to blue, green, red, ...) but I hear you - I have gathered a considerable stash of bronzy/olive polishes that sit neglected in my drawer :-( xxx

    Oh, Christine such a pretty nameless! And you're totally right this surely suits you. Yay for Bo_Anne!!!
    I do not know the name either, sorry, in fact this brand was unknown to me until last week, lol, just learning through the net.
    Many colours don't suit my skin tone, I would say every colour that has a certain grey dustiness make my skin look ashy.
    I'm loving this IPFs week !!
    bisous, xxx

      Salut chère Nati et merci mille fois xxx!!! Bo_Anne had an excellent hand in choosing some great polishes for me!!! The name of this is Metallic Saturn (yay for Anna from Pretty Digits). I know what you mean regarding the greys - I have to be picky with them too - they can make my hands look alien like - eeeeek. As always thank you for your support and I am so happy that you love my IPF week (at least IPF for us Swiss residents ;-)! Mille bisous
