Brand Challenge: Femme Fatale Cosmetics

Hello readers,
I've pulled out another six polishes from my Femme Fatale collection. Let's take a look at swatches.

Graveborn

Graveborn features a murky grey base with strong amethyst purple sheen. The formula was easy to work with. I used three coats here for full coverage but it was quite close after two, that may be enough for some. Photos show three coats of Graveborn with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Among Daughters Of Air

Among Daughters Of Air features a clear base with a hint of turquoise tint filled with a variety of small silver holo glitters and pink to gold shifting flecked shimmer. The formula was easy to work with though a bit sheer. After three coats you can still see my nail lines, though they're broken up by the glitters. I suspect this shade would make a nice topper as well. Photos show three coats of Among Daughters Of Air with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Windchime

Windchime features murky blue-grey base filled with a strong anethyst purple sheen. This shade is very similar to Graveborn though slightly cooler toned and the purple shimmer is a bit stronger. I used two coats here for full coverage. Photos show two coats of Windchime with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Ice-Kissed Grove

Ice-Kissed Grove features a pale grey base filled with a strong green shimmer and tiny silver holo glitters. The formula was nice to work with and took three coats for full coverage. Photos show three coats of Ice-Kissed Grove with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Crystal Droplets

Crystal Droplets features a translucent off-white base filled with a strong turquoise shimmer and small silver metallic glitters. The formula was easy to work with though a bit sheer. I got decent coverage after three coats but this might work well layered over white as well. Photos show three coats of Crystal Droplets with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Upon Seafoam

Upon Seafoam features a pale turquoise base filled with scatter holo shimmer and a soft red to golds shifting sheen. The formula was very easy to work with. I used three coats here for full coverage.
