Hey lovelies,
I enjoyed last week's Essie spam post so thought I'd share another! Here are all of my Pretty Serious swatches. As before, the older swatches come first and are in natural light/sunlight while the later ones are in my daylight bulb lighting set up. I love Pretty Serious polishes, everything from the packaging to the formula to the delightful woman behind it, Kaz. Plus, they're cruelty-free! Have you tried Pretty Serious yet?

Bloody Bride, 2 coat + topcoat
The formula on all of these is phenomenal. The cremes and shimmers build up easily and are thick enough to be manipulated easily. They almost feel gel like in their smooth viscosity, helping them to spread across the nail. Bloody Bride and Liquid Leprechaun are thicker again but not unmanageable and they dry with a bit of texture so I added topcoat. The glitter toppers spread well with minimal dabbing. If you dread fussy formulas, give Pretty Serious a spin because they won't give you any trouble!
Many of these shades are discontinued now but most are still available on the Pretty Serious website on clearance. You can also find a list of international stockists here.
