The Seven Deadly Sins Collection

Thought the name would get you reading.  I wanted to make a collection more in tune to the nail polish I wear everyday.  I love the darker colours and wanted to make a collection just for me.  It's for sale of course but they're also going to be part of my personal collection.  So here they are:





From left to right....Wrath, Greed, Sloth, Pride, Lust, Envy and Gluttony.  All black based and done with a shimmer, not a glitter.  They are all shown using 2 coats and go on very smooth.  I didn't use a top coat for the swatches but I will when I'm wearing them.



Wrath is a black base with a beautiful red shimmer.  In a couple of the shots you can see the red shimmer but it was a fight with the camera to get a good shot.  It looks like a glitter but I promise you it isn't .  It goes on smooth and has a great gloss finish.



Greed is an amazing green.  I'm not usually not a fan of the greens but this one I absolutely love.  It is in a black base and is actually a mistake.  It was supposed to be a blue but turned out to be a happy accident.  It has a great depth to it with only 2 coats.




Sloth is a gunmetal silver.  A black base again with a sterling pigment.  Glitter free and smooth application.  I've always liked the silvers so this one will be one that I wear a lot of.



Pride is a purple/blue colour morphing pigment in a black base.  It was very difficult to show the purple of this polish with the camera but it is amazing to look at .



Lust is actually an orange shimmer pigment in a black base.  It looks like a glitter but doesn't have that rough feel.  What the camera couldn't catch is the different shimmers this has.  You can see orange, green and yellow in the polish.  It has great coverage and it's a smooth application.



Envy is the wildest colour I've created.  I'm not sure I can even explain it.  It's a yellow powder pigment in a black base but it has this eerie yellow/gold glow to it.  It has an unbelievable shine and gloss and I'm totally in awe of its beauty.



Gluttony ( I know.  The name is ......odd )  is a perfect blue in a black base.  It has a metallic shine to it  that makes it stand out from the rest,  I do love my blues almost as much as my blacks.

Now , of course I had to do a colour wheel showing you all of my new colours with my Gasoline Dreams top coat so here goes.!



From left to right at the top is my collection as seen at the start of my post.  The bottom is in the exact order from left to right but with my beauty of a top coat.



I'm very happy with my Seven Deadly Sins collection and I hope it was worth the wait.  My biggest issue right now is what colour to wear !!
                                                                 Happy Nails !!!
