Penélope Luz - Pink World

Hi everybody,

The beauty I'm sharing with you today is Pink World created by the Brazilian indie brand Penélope Luz.

I have shown you some other Penélope Luz beauties before:

Tendresse

Sarcasm

Lucky Fairy

I absolutely love each and every one of them, and Pink World is no exception!

2 thin coats of Pink World over Illamasqua Ouija

Pink World is a mix of holographic pink hex glitters of different sizes and some holographic pink bars as well. The base is clear, which is perfect for layering it over other base colors. 

Lovely, isn't it?! :)

Penélope Luz - Lucky Fairy

Hi everyone,

look what I have for you today! It's another beauty created by Penélope Luz. If you are not familiar with Penélope Luz, let me explain it to you. Penélope Luz is a Brazilian indie nail polish brand that was created exactly a year ago (August 2012), but it was only recently that I've become acquainted to this brand, thanks to a wonderful lady from Brazil! (Pri, THANK YOU!!!)

So here it is: Lucky Fairy! I must say this picture does not do this polish enough justice... It's so much more sparkly IRL! It's gorgeous!!! For the gradient, I used Catrice Hugo Moss, Kiko #296 and Color Club Twiggie. I must say I was surprised that I did not have any shade of green in between Hugo Moss and #296!!! So this gradient isn't much what I expected. But hey, now I have a new quest: buy more shades of green nail polish!!! ;-)

Now back to PL Lucky Fairy... Look at this bottle shot! It's impossible not to like it, unless you don't like glitter at all... or green.... 

Lucky Fairy is a green jelly base with tons of different sized hexes in green, gold, black and some black squares in between. It's stunning! And it feels pretty smooth on the nails. I only applied 1 coat of INM Out the Door top coat and I'm good to go! 

If you like this Penélope Luz, I'm pretty sure you'll like these 2 others I've swatched before: Sarcasm and Tendresse.

Thanks for reading and 'til next time! XX

Penélope Luz - Sarcasm

Hello everyone,

today I want to show another Penélope Luz beauty: Sarcasm.

Sarcasm is such a beautiful polish! I applied 2 coats for the swatch above and 1 coat for the swatch below. I applied it over OPI My Vampire is Buff, which is one of my favorite base colors and I definitely need to buy a backup bottle.

Sarcasm is a mix of hex glitter in different colors, mostly bright neon colors and tiny matte black hex all suspended in a clear base. I love this combo! And yes, my nails are shorter on my right hand. :-P They keep on breaking, so they hardly keep up with their left hand siblings.

Thanks for reading!

Penélope Luz - Tendresse

Hi everyone,

yesterday I received an awesome nail mail from Brazil, which included a bunch of gorgeous Penélope Luz polishes. Those who follow me on Instagram or Facebook already saw the beauties, but if you missed the post, just click here!

So today, I'd like to show you the first one I picked for this post: it's Tendresse!

First I did a gradient with OPI - You're such a Budapest and Essence - That's What I Mint!, then I applied one thin coat of Penélope Luz - Tendresse. I personally LOVE the result!

Tendresse has a milky base full of magenta and light pink squares, different sizes of green, aqua, silver and magenta hex glitters and tiny squares in magenta, aqua, green and light pink plus lots of tiny shimmer. You can see for yourself in the macro shot below:

Stunning, isn't it?! ;) I can't wait to try the other 12 Penélope Luz I received!!!

Thanks for reading!
