Zoya Dovima Polish

Back from the tattoo shop ^^ Fresh new anchor and stars, very lovely, ow and all. But, let's get on to the Dovima review, and I must say it isn't the best. Pictures first.

Two coats, indoor lighting.

Outside, barely a bit of sun shining through.

The formula on this was so thick, and wasn't really a quick dry like most of the matte polishes on some fingers it did dry quickly on some it smeared right off and application was horrid, it rolled right off the edges thickly on some nails. Plus the wear was bad, already I'm chipping badly and it has only been a few hours time.

Will have to do a comparison for color next to ManGlaze's The Death Tar and Knock Out Cosmetic's Flatte, already I can tell you it looks closer to The Death Tar and really ladies, I say spend your money on ManGlaze's The Death Tar and skip Dovima. Plus the clean up was ghastly, usually you can slough the matte stuff off your skin fairly easily, this was sticky as all get out. I hate to give a bad review, really I do but this just wasn't up to snuff.

Posh was lovely, and am looking forwards to swatching Loredana, am hoping that this one was just a dud.

KO Ox

Well, I trimmed my nails to nubbins, of course today I miss the length. lol. Naturally! XD But really when the polish was off the peeling and staining wasn't pretty, it was like split ends on the nails they were due to come off unfortunately, but I did enjoy them! Also this is fun because I've a good array of dark polishes to swatch and I like how they look on my nails a shorter size, on others I like the vampy/ longer length combination but on my hand I think it looks alien! Ahh well without further adieu...Knock Out Ox!

Indoor lighting.

Outside, in the sun no less!

This is a gorgeous plummy ox blood purple. Two coats. During high school I used to dye my hair this shade, and sport a pair of doc martins in this color too. heheh.

Color Club Electronica /KO Ox bottle

Ugh still without corrector, but here is the glorious Color Club Electronica, I don't know why despite lighting conditions it photographs such a royal blue, but is it ever a deep shimmering purple irl. Don't mind the almighty horror I made of my index fingernail, they state of them with using the nail guides for the french tips and all the acetone have made them quite icky so I'm going to trim them tonight.

In bottle shot of CC Electronica.

Indoor lighting. Two coats, with a top of Poshe, for the length a third coat wouldn't of been amiss some spots I could still see a bit of streak through in the length.

Outdoors.

Oh and Ox came today, so very excited about this, my future nubbins can't wait.

KO'sLiberty!

Check out Knock Out Cosmetics Liberty is now available for purchase! What a lovely green patina. Lady Liberty indeed!

Knock Out Cosmetics Wahey

Was perusing the fan page of Knock Out Cosmetics well more precisely their Facebook page and ahoy new polishes! There's a green called Liberty which looks aptly like a green patina. Green! /dance +1.

Also coming is a deep purple called Ox (hope it's Ox bloody, that'd be pr0n). As well as shades called Concrete, Pool, Nude and Chocolate which from the small picture also look perfectly named. My greedy mitts want them all! All I tell you. On the page it says that Concrete and Pool will be released mid-May, Nude and Chocolate mid fall.

The page says that Liberty shall be released next week, and the week following Ox shall.

Ridiculously excited by these new shades, do go look at the pics toute de suite!

Liberty, though wow can't wait till my digits are rocking it!

KO Hotness! Mascara ramble...

Oh hotness, Knock Out Cosmetics has a new shade called Karen and it is a foxy foxy foxy looking red. Check out the picture, it makes those gorgeous bottles pop even more! There's also a treatment called Flatte Top which is a sealant and top coat which will bring you back to matte after a few days of wear. I've a Tony and Tina matte top coat which I love. The thing is ancient but still does the trick.

Karen though, it just looks amazing in the photos. I totally caved and purchased it. Earlier this month for my birthday my lovely sister gave me Calamine and Flatte Black. I can't say enough about them. The black is just so inky dark, and it is different than ManGlaze's The Death Tar, worth purchasing both IMHO. Will swatch Flatte Black soon! So excited about Karen, if there was an ox blood or navy ever slated...would be floored.

The sun is finally out today, after nearly a week of on and off rain. Now if only it would warm up a touch, but can not complain really after seeing the sun!

Picked up Max Factor's 2K Calorie Extreme Lash Plumper today and am looking forwards to giving that a go, the last couple mascaras I have bought have been let downs. Looking at you Maybelline Lash Stiletto! You in the back as well, Cover Girl Lashblast Luxe!

The store mercifully and unfortunately didn't stock Cadbury Mini Eggs! ^^

Get thee behind me choccy!
