I decided to buy some of the Misa Wishes collection sight unseen. For a polish blogger, this is unheard of. Shows you just how much I love Misa ;) Turns out, I had no reason to worry, the colors I chose were beautiful, in typical Misa fashion.
The first is Never Say Never, and despite having the nasty habit of giving me a Justin Bieber earworm, makes me quite happy to look at. It's a shimmery granite grey whiteish color with a special finish. In fact, all the Wishes polishes have a unique finish that I've never seen before. It's not shiny but it's not matte, not quite satin either. It's like soft? Almost like frosted glass. It's very hard to describe. This is two coats, which for a pale color is really awesome.
Touch the Rainbow is a frosted glass blue ethereal polish. This one surprised me, as before I said, not knowing what to expect, the color is quite slight but still very present. It's a whisper of a tint, but the blue is still there. This is also two coats. These covered remarkably well.
Genie in this Bottle is by far my favorite out of the three I chose, an opalescent pinky purple shimmer floating in a frosted pale purple base, so angelic! This is also two coats. These polishes were a bit thicker but not hard to paint on or streaky, just thick enough to get opaque. Very nice!
What do you think? I love this understated Spring collection! So unexpected! I purchased these from www.head2toebeauty.com and they are also available on www.transdesign.com and www.misacosmetics.com now.

2 coaters? Amazing. They are a bit laid-back for me but I adore Misa. If I could get them easily in the UK I surely would.
ReplyDeleteThese are surprisingly gorgeous. I really thought they were going to be a snoozefest. But no! Thanks for the swatches :)
ReplyDeleteIm really loving Geanie in a bottle because it does have that ethereal misty kind of look like when u rub the bottle and the genie is about to come out but first theres that cloud that comes out lol.... Know what I mean? Just beautiful!

ReplyDelete@~Elizabeth aka Lacquered Lizard fort worth is almost more similar to never say never, but there is more of a granite look to NSN. genie is much more purple than fort worth.
