Swatch-It Sunday: Essence "Prom Berry" & "Cool Breeze" and W7 "Cosmic Purple" swatches & review

Hello hello!

Today we have 2 new polishes from Essence: "Prom Berry" and "Cool Breeze". Prom Berry is a deep dark purple polish with a little shimmer. And you can totally get away with just one coat, which makes it a true "colour & go" lacquer. I hereby show you 1 coat (in direct sunlight, which truly brings out the gorgeous shimmer) and 2 coats (in daylight):






Now on to Essence's Special Effect Topper! Cool Breeze looks amazing in the bottle, all those iridescent glitters, whoaaa! But it is not as well packed as it seems. However, it does really look beautiful over this purple. This is one coat:




You gotta apply this a bit more carefully, because otherwise the glitter won't cover the whole nail, but it is not hard. Just dab the brush where you want glitter. As you can see, it has both micro and macro glitter in there. It does give it a cool breezy feel.

Now I wanted to try out W7's "Cosmic Purple". This is one coat over Prom Berry:


Cosmic purple isn't actually purple! It's a glitterbomb of fuchsia and blue microglitters, which makes it appear purple. It's really nice and sparkly and applies really easily. And it's cheap :) 2 pounds in the UK, 2.50 euros in the Netherlands (available at Op=Op). In the UK you can also order them online.

That's it folks! The nail art I did with these is part of another post, that I will probably post next week, it is something really different that I am really excited about!

So stay tuned and don't forget to follow via GFC, Bloglovin' and Facebook, so that you won't miss a thing!
