Halloween Nails: Thermal Spiders

I was too warm the day I was taking these photos! Had to run my hand under cold water to make the thermal polish go dark.

Nail Polish Battle 2019: Grey and Black

As it is now December it is time for my annual nail polish battle. I find it interesting to look back over the year at the new polishes I have acquired and seeing which ones are my favourites.

Since last years nail polish battle I have 52 new nail polishes which is 11 less than last year. Today I am looking at grey and black ones.

OPI - Rub A Pub Pub | Revolution - Horror Show | A England - Mrs Danvers | A England - Goth | A England - Camelot | China Glaze - Liquid Leather

Choosing my top three was quite easy for this category. Rub a Pub Pub is a blue toned grey which is different to any of the other polishes in my collection. Liquid Leather is a really nice cream black polish, the formula is good. The thin brush type isn't my favourite type.


The winner of this round is going to be Goth by A England. Formula is good, the brush is flat, wide and rounded at cuticle. It is holographic and is dark but is still distinguishable from a standard black polish.

A England - Goth

While I have many polishes, even many grey / black ones, when I saw the skull shaped bottle this came in I had to get it. The bottle itself is a skull, and the handle is black printed with a white spiderweb and red roses.

I recently got these eyeshadows from Makeup Revolution, they were part of a Cyber Monday deal. All of the shadows were swatched dry, they do recommend using them wet for a more intense look.

Heavenly

All of these eyeshadows were shimmer based, some swatched more intensely than others. Moon Dust is my favorite from the 'Out of this World' collection. I'm very interested in seeing these used wet. I didn't used to use shimmer shadows however this past year I have been enjoying getting more in to them. Still avoiding glitter shadows though!
