impyPolishes arrived. Huzzah!
My KL Polish order arrived today and I've gotta say the shipping leaves something to be desired. They showed up in a bubble mailer, wrapped in black tissue paper. I'm kind of surprised nothing broke but since I also didn't pay for shipping in addition to my sale prices, I'll live. It's also probably not a thing worth mentioning elsewhere since the company is going under.
L-R: Yzma, To The Stars, 1435, Winter is Coming, and Cozy in There?
It's raining so lighting suuuuuuucks.
Yzma I suspect is one of those polishes that requires direct sunlight (or light in general) to really make her pop. When grabbing the description below, I noticed again that this one doesn't really pop on the site but sweet baby Jesus, the color is gorgeous any time I see legit swatches.
Yzma, a deep metallic purple with black undertones, is both royal and glamorous. A must-have for those fun nights in the city.
Purple nail polish. Metallic finish. Cruelty-free. Vegan. 12-free.
To the Stars is a stupidly beautiful blue that I would have already slapped on my nails if not for the fact that I'm wearing my Zoya Merida for St. Patrick's Day (I even did all eleventy-billion steps to keep this sucker on through Sunday). It glows even in dismal lighting so I have high hopes for this one.
To the Stars is a metallic royal blue. This shade is perfect for the winter season!
Blue nail polish. Metallic finish. Cruelty-free. Vegan. 12-free.
1435 is a described as a muted navy and I'll allow it. I don't think I've got anything similar and the color is much prettier than my picture conveys. It's brighter and darker in person, as the picture kind of washed it out.
1435, a muted navy, will remind you of the concrete jungle. This shade is somewhere in between Gumption! and Cozy in There?
Blue nail polish. Creme finish. Cruelty-free. Vegan. 12-free.
Winter is Coming is a snowy, glittery, metallic white. If I had a shot for each time someone said it looked like snow on your nails, I'd be drunk in no time. Probably because it's something in the description? Still, I kinda want to see if that's accurate or if it's just a pretty metallic white.
Winter is Coming is a metallic white with multi-dimensional glitter that looks like snow on your fingertips.
White nail polish. Metallic finish. Glitter finish. Cruelty-free. Vegan. 12-free.
Cozy in There? is the first polish I debated picking up as I scrolled through the options (Yzma was at the end of the list) but also the last of this group that I threw in my cart. I worried that it would be too similar to 1435, but in the bottle at least, they look like cousins but definitely different enough. While 1435 is straight up blue, there's something else in Cozy. Maybe the grey mentioned, maybe a thread of green.
Cozy In There? is a bewitching blue polish with gray undertones. This subtle blue color is a subdued shade for a versatile polish that will pleasantly surprise you. Cozy in There? is a line from one of Kathleen's favorite shows, The Walking Dead.
Dusty gray/blue nail polish. Creme finish. Cruelty-free. Vegan. 12-free.
Overall, I'm actually pretty happy with the ones I picked... and I might've made another order. *cough*
Now to find room for these.
