Emily de Molly Savvy Trinket


Emily de Molly Savvy Trinket is a purple with gold / green / blue shifting shimmer. Formula-wise the polish is just like Major Themes. The application was super easy, almost no brush strokes. I've used two coats of Savvy Trinket for all the photos in this post. The main difference from Major Themes is that the shimmer is very shifting. The colors are constantly changing, it's difficult to stop looking at your nails.

In order to show every possible shift I took lots of pictures. Press' read more' and check them out~

A-England Holy Grail (limited edition)


A-England Holy Grail is a gold shimmer polish. This is the old version of Holy Grail, you can't buy it from manufacturer directly. I have this half-used bottle and a new one I managed to find, though that one has a damaged cap. I purchased the new bottle with full intent to wear it but I have a lot of nail polish so I probably won't use it. That's why it's on my blog sale page, do check that out.

Formula-wise Holy Grail is awesome. It's one of those rare occasions when there are no brush strokes even though the polish is loaded with shimmer. It's fully opaque in two coats. The polish dries fast and smooth on the nail. Holy Grail doesn't stain your nails and is easy to remove.

Emily de Molly Major Themes


Emily de Molly Major Themes is a yellow gold to orange foil with hints of peach and subtle green. The color is so vivid and vibrant that my hands look dull by comparison. The formula is awesome for a foil. As a matter of fact, it's awesome even for a non-foil polish. Foil nail polishes usually contain lots of shimmer. This predictably leads to a trickier application. Brush strokes are a menace, really. But with Major Themes you get almost no brush strokes despite the abundance of shimmer. The polish is opaque in two coats and dries fast and smooth on the nail. You don't really need a top coat but I've added one for extra durability.

Dance Legend Wazowski


Dance Legend Wazowski is a metallic multichrome shifting between green, gold, and blue. It is a part of the Chameleon Collection that was released in 2013. One coat is enough for this polish to be completely opaque. For the photos above I've applied two coats but that's just because my nails don't fare well with metallic polishes. 

The formula is nice, it should have been very easy to apply this polish. However, the brush in my bottle was cut in a diagonal line so it was a bit tricky to apply it smoothly near the cuticle. The main shift is between green and gold. To be honest, I've only seen Wazowski turn blue in the bottle. Multichromes depend greatly on the shape of your nails, my nails aren't enough for blue color to show, obviously. Nonetheless, Wazowski is just simply stunning!
