Ruby Kisses: Red Romance

I hope you've all had a merry Christmas and/or happy holidays!

I'm sharing my Christmas mani with you and it was a simple one too this year - no nail art, no embellishment, just the polish speaking for itself.  I wore metallic raspberry polish Red Romance from a brand I've only just been introduced to, Ruby Kisses.  Ruby Kisses is a budget US brand and in the roundabout way things happen I actually received this all the way from Slovenia via a polish swap!  Red Romance was an obvious pick for Christmas as this raspberry red also has holo bar glitter and a subtle smattering of microglitter mixed in.  The formula was a little on the gloopier side so it was a little difficult to control, so I very carefully applied my two coats of colour.  I would have liked to see some more of the bar glitter shining on my nails too, to give them a more tinsel effect but it was a very subtle take on glitter and suitable to wear in front of the older family members with no questions asked!

Before I go, for those of you who haven't seen it on Twitter, here's a picture of our family's Christmas tree and lights decorating the window:


Until next time.

My Slovenian polish swap!

 
Who doesn't love a surprise package?

In this quick picture post I'm featuring some European nail polish spam courtesy of a swap package from one of my lovely blogger friends, Ina from the Slovenian blog Hysteria Of Decay.  When Ina contacted me to request some Ulta3 glitters she kindly offered to do a little shopping and send me a few things not readily available in Australia - namely brands like Catrice, S-he, and Ruby Kisses.  Another offer I could not resist! I didn't have any specific shades in mind so when the package arrived it was all a surprise... 

Catrice*
L-R:
 400 Blue Cara Ciao - Bright cerulean blue creme
490 Iron Mermaiden - I just love that multi-chrome!

*I've read somewhere that Catrice is budget beauty brand Essence's older, more sophisticated 'sister' brand.


S-he stylezone
L-R:
462 - Raspberry pink creme
290 - Metallic cobalt blue


Ruby Kisses
Red Romance
I adore how festive this polish looks with its smattering of holo bar glitter!


Which of these polishes catch your eye?
