I thought this Monday would NEVER end! But it has and I have two beauties to show you from a new-to-me indie called Maya Cosmetics. Tranquillis and Glacies. I just got them today and it was the best thing I can say about today so I couldn't wait to show you.
First I am going to apologize for the band-aid (or "plaster" for my UK friends. LOL!) I've tried to minimize its appearance in the photos, but as I said - it's been SUCH a Monday.
Tranquillis really blew me away. It's a gorgeous deep blackened teal that leans more blue in the bottle and more green on the nail. It's packed with (what looks to ME to be) green and gold shimmer and green, gold, copper and blue irregular micro-flakes. I used two coats for full opacity. Formula was smooth and creamy. No issues at all. The first set of photos is with no top coat and the second set is with top coat.

Glacies is a limited edition shimmery sheer blue topper that has a slight color shift from blue to turquoise to purple. The close up photo shows this best. It also has micro-flakes, which I am such a sucker for! I've layered one coat over a plain black creme and you can see how it comes alive! Perfect formula, no issues. No top coat for any of the photos.

like I told you before, Tranquillis made my jaw drop, it's SO damn pretty!!! ♥♥ and as usual your swatches look amazing!!
ReplyDeleteBoth gorgeous but Tranquillis is my favorite!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are both gorgeous! I'm not sure I can pick a favorite!
ReplyDeleteNever have run into this brand before. So many folks are rocking deep greens now. Tranquillis is gorg and I love the complex 'stuff' loaded into it. I think I need to get with my stash and pull out the non Christmas looking greens and see what I have so I better know what I should pick up. I just passed on the new Zoya holiday green for some reason when I placed my order. I need to get on this green thing I think! The blue topper is a real show stopper.
ReplyDeleteLove tranquilis it looks like Live and Let Die of OPI sky fall collection
ReplyDeleteAs per usual your swatches are drool worthy!
