About 6 months ago I got an email from Sophie, the owner of Femme Fatale Cosmetics and I was asked to create a collaboration trio with them. It was the best day ever!
I accepted the offer immediately, becasue Femme Fatale is one of my fave brands, and I knew we could work together realy well.
I had so many ideas, but finally I narrowed it down to 3 dark and dramatic shades - surprise, surprise!I named my trio as "Things To Love", because the inspirations behind these shades are things that I'm fond of for years and years.
COLOR CRUSH
The inspiration behind this polish is really simple, one of my favorite color combos is teal and copper/orange.
The base is a really dark teal color, and there's orange holo glitters, copper/orage shimmer and flakes in it as well.
I used 3 thin coats, but on shorter nails you can get away with only 2 coats. I would recommend at least 1 thick coat of topcoat to even out the surface.
AQUATIC
This shade was inspired by the sea/beach theme. This whole theme was so close to me throughout my life. I love spending time by the ocean, I wish I could live in a small (or bigger :D) coastal town. My inspiration was the deep, dark ocean, with sparkling blue jelly fish.
It has a dark grey jelly base with cobalt blue holo microglitters, blue-purple shifting flakes and blue shimmer.
I used 3 thin coats and a thick coat of topcoat.
AURORA BOREALIS
I knew from the beginning, that I want a thermal in my trio. This, and my admiration for the northern light (which I never experienced in real life, but I know I will someday) created this polish.
It has a slightly dusty lighter blue base when it's warm, and a dark grey/almost black color when it's cold. It has a strong green simmer, violet flakes, holo glitters and orange glitters.
It covers in 2-3 coats, 1 thick coat of topcoat is enough to even out the surface.
I love all 3 shades so much, I was so eager to see them in real life after Sohie sent me the pictures of them! I hope you will like them too :)
Just like last year, there are 3 bloggers in total who was given the opportunity to create a collaboration trio with Femme Fatale Cosmetics. Laetitia (ilaeti.com) and Sam (fashionpolish.com) created their own trios as well, they both have their blog post up already. Hopefully I can post my swatches of their trios on my blog tomorrow.
On the Femme Fatale blog you can read a little bit about me and my trio, HERE's the link to it :)
On the Femme Fatale site, you can preorder all 3 trios (individually or as a set) from August 1st to August 5th. Stockists will also carry them.
They are all limited editions!
That Color Crush - I adore it! I love those colors together also and with the flakies and all, it's so gorgeous! Your swatches and photos are always so beautiful.
