It's time for another dose of Shakespearean polish with four more colors from A Charm of Powerful Trouble, a collection by Spell Polish. (You can read the first half of my review here) This was my first time trying out the brand's matte polishes and boy, was I impressed! Check them out after the break...
Owlet's Wing is an intense, silvery scattered holo with iridescent glitters. This would work as both a topper or on its own, which was how I wore it here in four thin coats. Great formula, pretty smooth, too.
Toe of Frog is a magical thing; a matte olive-green/teal duochrome with tiny blue flakies in it. It was truly amazing. My nails looked airbrushed. Not only that, but it held up really well without chipping in the days I wore it. It stayed matte, too, without wearing shiny. The formula was self-leveling, which is perfection in a matte because you don't have top coat to even it out for you. This was three thin coats, but probably two would be enough.
Tongue of Dog (I have a strong urge to call it Tongue of Doge, lol) is an amethyst shimmer polish with blue highlights. This had a few brushstrokes, but they were more apparent in photos than on the nail. This is worn with three thin coats. Good, quick-dry formula.
Wool of Bat has a similar formula to Toe of Frog but is even more opaque - one to two thin coats will do it. This has purple shimmer flecks in a black matte base. Wonderful and self-leveling. It is definitely darker-looking on the nail than in the bottle, especially in its matte state.
Top coat definitely helps the shimmer jump out:
I may have liked this set even better than the first batch, which I reviewed here. Each polish is priced at $17. I bought the full collection and a special limited edition collector's box, now sold out that you can see in my first review.
Spell Polish is an upstate New York brand that offers a range of stunning multichromes, smooth mattes, and interesting finishes with beautiful packaging and graphic design.
