New Maya Cosmetics Polish Swatches!

Hello readers! Remember my last post on Maya Cosmetics? Well, Kat has sent me 3 of the new polishes to share with you!

Like A Boss, Treme, and Redemption!

Lets start off with Like A Boss! It's a gorgeous nude with delicate scattered holographic particles! Kat wanted to make an "office-friendly" polish(get the name, now? hehe) and I think she hit the nail on the head with this one. I am not a fan of nudes on me, and yet I really LOVE this polish. I think this is the perfect nude for my skintone, and the holo makes it even better in my book! This is only 2 coats with one coat of top coat. It applied really easily and sparkled so beautifully!

In the lightbox, the holographic particles look like shimmer!

In the sun, the holo comes out to play!

So delicate and pretty!

The next two polishes I am showing are part of the Crescent City Collection coming out in January. All of them are New Orleans themed! Kat is doing a pre-holiday preorder for these two polishes --from 15 Nov through 25 Nov (they will ship by 5 Dec).

Treme is a neighborhood in New Orleans that is known for its brass bands and mixed culture. As a polish, it's a total micro glitter bomb of mostly gold but with tons of other colors added in as well! I have a party on my nails! Very pretty and super dense, this is only 2 coats! It's a hungry glitter so I am showing with one coat of a special glitter top coat(think Gelous type) from Maya Cosmetics!



Crazy coverage for two coats!

Redemption is for the New Orleans Saints fans and I'm showing it on it's own as well as over a black creme. Black hexes, gold shimmer, gold hexes, holo hexes, and pearly white squares! This is only one coat on it's own and one coat over Milani Black Swift in the photos below. It had really easy application, I didn't have to place the glitters at all. It turned out that Redemption was more of a hungry glitter than I thought. I'm showing with one coat of Poshe top coat but you can see it's not a smooth finish. Next time, I'll do the glitter top coat from Maya Cosmetics! 

Look at the holo hexes showing their colors!

Only 1 coat on it's own! Look at the gold shimmer!

Over black it kind of hides the black glitters, but shows off the gold shimmer.

What do you think of these? These and some other new polishes are available for purchase this Thursday, November 15th. Don't forget Treme and Redemption are for pre-order the 15-25th and will ship around December 5th. They will be available again in January with the rest of the collection! 

Like A Boss is going to be $9 a bottle because the cost of the holo pigment, while the other 2 are the regular $8 each. All available at Maya Cosmetics: http://www.maya-cosmetics.com/
