Hi friends!! Yesterday I showed you one of indie newcomer Celestial Cosmetics' collaboration polishes and today I've got two from the core line. Celestial Cosmetics polishes are beautiful and conceptual, with finishes ranging from creamy glitter to frost to linear holographic. The most recent additions bear fun and imaginative straight from sci-fi names.
This is Mercury Rising, a practically-applies-itself frosty, silvery blue packed with periwinkle glitters.
I love my light frosts and Mercury Rising is a delicate and updated take on the pearly finishes of yore. It has the same sheen but this finish is light, airy, and whipped, like a light, iridescent foam. It's a modern pearl, if you will. The formula is wonderfully easy to work with. I used two coats of polish and one layer of topcoat.
This is The Pink Planet, one of those gorgeous dark pink-red shades I'm so wild about.
The Pink Planet is a quinacridone red jelly base packed with tiny holographic glitters and medium sized holographic hexes. This polish is beautifully romantic and looks like Valentine's Day in a bottle to me. The Pink Planet is one of loooove, lol. Doesn't it look like it could be the atmosphere of a planet in a distant galaxy? So much awesome imagery surrounding this one. The Pink Planet has another easy as pie to apply formula. Again, I used two coats of polish and one layer of topcoat. My only real complaint is that those gorgeous hexes don't show up as abundantly on the nail as they do in the bottle... but that could be user error. Make sure this one gets a really good shake before application.
Celestial Cosmetics Mercury Rising and The Pink Planet will be available internationally at color4nails.com within 1-2 weeks.

DeleteMercury rising is gorgeous! and pink planet is beautiful as well. Love your swatches Liesl :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, sweets ♥♥
DeleteHi Liesl, another great review and introduction, both of them are beautiful and unique - Mercury Rising is so etheral but with a sci-fi drive and the planet??? Just thinking about a pink planet grown with trees bearing holo leaves and glittery rivers and green mars men - LOL and nope, I had my coffee and am on the way to work and my brain spits up all that nonsense :-D - no pink pills near or far 😜
ReplyDeleteYou're so cute ♥♥♥ I just love the power of suggestion on some of these polishes... So funny how something so mundane really does stretch your imagination and get you to think in different ways. Not nonsense, just fun ;)
DeleteI don't know if I've said this before (probably yes :P), but your nails are looking so pretty! I love them with this shape and lenght! Also, that Mercury Rising is going straight to my wishlist! It's a must have! ^^
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you so much, Raquel! It's nice to have learned a few good tricks, lol :) Mercury Rising is lovely, I'm just so impressed with this line so far :)
DeleteThese are both just gorgeous! You show them off in such a beautiful way. Great job Liesl!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Es ♥
DeleteThese are both really gorgeous, but I am loving The Pink Planet!!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more :) I ended up wearing that one for three days (sort of unprecedented around these parts... and yours, too, I'll wager) ♥
DeleteNice shades. Especially Mercury, it looks so subtle and unique :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like! :) MR is lovely. Nicki is so talented :)
DeleteMercury Rising is totally WOW! I just love the blue glitters against the shimmery white base. *wipes off drool* :D
ReplyDelete~ Yun
It looks like your kind of indie <3
DeleteI don't usually do frosty or glittery polishes but Mercury Rising is so darn pretty. Love it.
ReplyDeleteI think there's something about how they're doing the frosty finish nowadays. It looks ethereal, not so dated. Words are failing me here. Lool.
