Revlon Spam! [Picture Heavy]

Purchased by me/Swap/Contains Amazon affiliate links

Hello lovelies!

I have a spam post for you all today. I'm hoping to pop into town before work on Saturday to look at cameras. Hopefully I leave JB Hifi with a brand new camera, then I can get started on brand new content!

In the meantime I'm dipping into my folders of swatches I've accumulated, so without further ado, I present...

Revlon Swatch Spam!

Raspberry Rapture, 2 coats.

Impossible to photograph - pictures this less orange, and more of a classic raspberry creme. Not unique, but it smells amazing!

Fire Fox, 2 coats

I absolutely love this. Its true potential is revealed when you add top coat, but alone it is still gorgeous, and feels really sophisticated on.

Moon Candy - Cosmic, 3 coats of the base, 1 coat of flakies on accent nails.

I'm not sure about this colour combination together, but the flakies are gorgeous. The colour shift is very similar to China Glaze Luxe & Lush.

Slipper, 2 coats over Maybelline - Racing Rubies, 3 coats.

I adore this combination.  I loved Scrangie's layering combo with Chanel Rouge Noir here so I wanted to pair it with a darker red too.  This looks so glowy and awesome!

Apricot Freeze [Glimmer Gloss], 2 coats over Australis - Citrus, 3 coats.

Man, I love the two Glimmer Glosses I have. They don't seem to get enough love in the blogosphere. Over black they are pretty freakin' amazing, and they're a cute bit of sparkle over a matching base colour too. I don't know how easy these are to find outside of New Zealand now, but here they can be found at Cosmetics Plus stores for $9.90 (from memory).

Grape Glimmer [Glimmer Gloss], 1 coat over Australis - Peek-A-Boo, 3 coats.

Oh my goodness. Look at that shimmer. It's to die for! I want to layer this over everything.

Splash? Or possibly Midnight [Streetwear], 2 coats.

Great formula and opacity, but I'm not such a fan of blues or frosts. This went to a loving new home with Dana of Polished Claws Up.

Very Currant, 2 coats.

I'm not sure old this is, but it was a thrill to find a polish with an old Farmers price tag still on it. I don't know why I find that exciting, but I do, haha. A very pretty glowy colour, but I felt like I had others that were very similar, so this was gifted to Dana.

Peach Smoothie, 4 coats.

This is so pretty. I don't know how much it suits me, but I'll keep wearing it anyway! The gold flecks really make the polish, and this is another of Revlon's lovely scented confections.

Orange Pop, 3 coats.

So flattering, and it smells awesome too! Revlon really does scented polish well. This was a gift from Dana :)

Moon Candy - Galactic, 2 coats of the base colour, 1 of the flakies.

Man this is cool. The base colour is a deep blue jelly akin to Color Club's Blue-Topia, and the flakies are just divine. They are sparse, but I quite like them that way. This gorgeous thing was also a gift from the very sweet Dana. I hope these are released in New Zealand. I really want the grey duo with silver holo shards, and the purple duo too.

Belle, 1 coat over Jordana - Boy Oh Boy, 2 coats.

This is such a cute, albeit not unique, top coat. This is identical to Revlon Sparkle (which was being sold in mini bottles at NZ pharmacies recently) for those who were wondering. I had both, but purged Sparkle after I bought Belle. I had to have Belle because it is the name of a friend's sweet daughter that I used to babysit in Hamilton, I miss them both so much. 

Royal Cloak, 2 coats.

Check out those divine silver flakies! Such a gorgeous polish, great opacity too.

Blue Lagoon, 4 coats.

Poor Blue Lagoon. What a rubbish swatch of a gorgeous polish. As you can see, I was running out of daylight, so the beautiful glassfleck shimmer is hard to see. I really need to sort out a lightbox. Formula was tricky and prone to cuticle flooding on this one, but worth it.

Sunshine Sparkle, 4 coats.

Super gorgeous colour, but check out those lobster hands! Eek. On a side note, why can't my nails be that long again? :'(

Scandalous (Facets of Fuchsia), 2 coats over Santee Plus - Black, 1 coat

This is an older swatch, from before I found a spot I liked taking photos in at our new house. Yuck!

Crystal Ball, 2 coats. 

I'm still not sure whether I like this or not! In the bottle it's awesome, but on me I think it looks a little dated and unflattering. This is from the Prismagic collection in 2003, but seems to pop up on Ebay now and then. 

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day :)
