Aqua Lily is pretty much unbelievably beautiful. The most recent retiree to be welcomed back into the RBL catalog of available lacquers. She's from the inaugural fan collection that debuted at the beginning of this year. Hot turquoise with killer pink shimmer. Like the glistening lagoon water of a fantasy island lagoon.
This is Starfish Patrick. Truly an essential polish in my collection. This is from the Spongebob collection that came out in 2008. I don't know how many times it's been brought back to life but I'm just as in love with it now as I was when I first saw it. Deliciously smooth light creamsicle orange milky jelly. Le sigh.
And the other BiB polish I have in my possession is Pui Mosso. This guy is from the Firebird collection, the first collection I had the privilege of reviewing for RBL. Luxe mysterious dark navy with a tinge of purple and a generous glaze of reddish copper shimmer.
The entire line up that will be available for purchase: Recycle, Opaque Nude, Starfish Patrick, Insouciant, Pui Mosso, and Aqua Lily! I hope to bring you the swatches for the others soon. Until the sale date, again set tentatively for Nov. 2, I would urge you to sign up for Rescue Beauty Lounge email newsletters in order to be alerted as soon as possible when they are back. Any of those in particular you are looking forward to picking up? Personally I can't WAIT until I see Insouciant in person. I'm kind of obsessed with it!
Products provided for review.
Insouciant is boring and ugly, I got rid of mine long ago.
ReplyDeletehmm i'm pretty stoked to get mine. hopefully i like it better than you did :)

DeleteI thought Insouciant was super pretty but got rid of all my RBL polishes for other reasons. Aqua Lily looks divine on you!
ReplyDeleteAqua Lilly, you just revived an lemming I tried to forget LOL - thanks anyhow ;)

Thrilled to know - thanks. Maybe I will finally be able to get Aqua Lilly. I did vote on the contest.
ReplyDeleteI really like the first and the last one! :)
ReplyDeletedefinitely looking forward to get aqua lily and insouciant!!
ReplyDelete1) LOVE your new layout!
ReplyDelete2) I can't wait to get my hands on Starfish Patrick, Pui Mosso and Insouciant. Three of my biggest current lemmings! :)
Is the shimmer in PM obvious or hidden like in AL? Please say it's not hidden! :)
thank you! i have been wanting to change it for a long time :)
DeletePM's shimmer is a little hidden but super pops in full light!
love it *_______* <3333
ReplyDeleteThanks a million for your gorgeous swatches. I recently became obsessed with RBL and found all your swatches very color-true and beautiful. You have quickly become my favorite nail blogger. I ordered Insouciant, Aqua Lilly and Recycle from the presale along with Coral, Moulin Rouge and Purple Haze. You have me wondering if I need to buy Pui Mosso and Starfish Patrick when they go on sale to the public. I didn't order them b/c I don't wear super dark colors all that often and am worried SP might get annoying. I noticed most bloggers use 4 coats to build him up to a reasonable opacity. That's a lot of polishing!
ReplyDeleteYay for BiBs! I'm the fan who created Aqua Lily and your swatch of her is gorgeous! But what I really want to say is how excited I am for the Blogger 2.0 collection... Cant wait to see what you came up with :)

ReplyDeleteStarfish Patrick is simply mesmerizing whereas Pui Mosso reminds me of the Dementor's Kiss
