My NOTDs of the week - part 1

This week was all about the Vintage Challenge that Jezz from Little Miss Nailpolish and myself have invited to. But by no means did my nails go bare - let me show you what I wore throughout the week - admittedly, I am so happy with each and every of the polishes I had on my nails this week. There were so many pictures and quite some stuff I wanted to say about those polishes, that I split the post into two parts.

I was over the moon when I received MeiMei Signatues Newsletter announcing the launch of Emily de Mollys in her shop - finally another chance to get hold of some lemmings of mine (YESSS I succeeded). The one I wore first Emily de Molly Cosmic Forces:

Cosmic Forces is a sheer purple jelly loaded with round glitter. If worn on its own it would certainly require three coats at least to achieve decent opacity. I wanted to keep the translucent feel of Cosmic Forces therefore I started out with one coat of Picture Polish Violet Femme, a very bright purple jelly and added one coat of Emily de Molly Cosmic Forces. Most of the glitters literally jumped on to my nails - only the saucer sized glitters were reluctant to leave their crib and had to be fished out. Despite the amount of glitter in this polish it dried nearly smooth and I could finish my mani with no more than one coat of Butter London Hardwear Top Coat. The removal required some elbow grease though.

I am a BIG fan of anything from A England and of course I could not pass Excalibur (revamped):

I applied two buttery, velvety coats of Excalibur (revamped) over Zoya Anchor Base Coat. I used Butter London Hardwear Top Coat. I spare you more text and rather add some more pictures as they say ALL about the beauty of the new Excalibur:

This post ended up being so long, that I split it into two parts.

I ordered Emily de Molly Cosmic Forces with MeiMei Signatures and A England Excalibur (revamped) with Llarowe.

Now on to part two....
