NOTD: Sephora Moody Woman

Another Sephora purchase. I ordered this nail polish together with another two a while back from Sephora.fr and I actually did this NOTD about 3 months ago, so about time I've showed you. Sephora Moody Woman is a gorgeous duochrome nail polish (I love duochrome nail polishes in case you didn't know), it's mostly green that flashes blue at certain angles, very pretty.

Taken without flash - green and blue

The formula of this was really nice and it's very easy to apply thanks to a flat, wide brush. I used 3 coats for this manicure. Unfortunately on me this isn't very long lasting, it started chipping within the first 24 hours. (My record so far is about 60 hours without any chipping.) I still like it a lot and as it was so easy to apply and it's very pretty, I can forgive it.

Also it is very reasonably priced at €4.90 (just under £4) for 5 ml, so can't argue with that. Sephora has 65 different shades of their own brand nail polish and 3 of those are duochrome. As well as Moody Woman there's also a Chanel Peridot dupe/lookalike and a Deborah Lippmann Wicked Game dupe/lookalike, if you like duochromes, definitely worth checking them out as they're fraction of the price of the Chanel and Deborah Lippmann ones.

NOTD: Models Own Beetlejuice Golden Green

This is the second shades I have tried out from the Models Own Beetlejuice collection. (You can read my review on Aqua Violet here.) This is the only shade as well as Pinky Brown that's sold out already, I think a lot of people might have thought it was a dupe for Chanel Peridot that also sold out very quickly. I thought it was too, but it's not. Firstly it's hardly even duochrome, on me it's mainly light golden green, sometimes a bit darker from certain angles, but I don't really see the duochromeness you see in the bottle (and even that isn't that great).

With flash

Peridot is more gold with definite green and even some blue duo(multi)chrome. Anyway, I didn't buy Golden Green because I wanted a Peridot dupe, I bought it because it looked amazing in the promo pictures. It's nice, but not that special. This also chipped on me pretty quickly, similar to Aqua Violet, but I'm used to that. All in all, a nice polish, but don't expect it to be that amazing duochrome you've seen in the promo pictures.

What do you think of the Models Own Beetlejuice polishes? Did you buy any?

NOTD: Chanel Peridot - My First Ever Chanel Nail Polish!

I was very excited when I first saw pictures of Chanel's fall collection, especially when I saw pictures of Peridot nail polish. It instantly reminded me of Scarab beetles, it being green-gold with blue sheen. Never seen a nail polish that colour before. So I bought it last Monday and I've finally got around to wearing it. 

I love it, it's so beautiful. In the bottle it's green-gold with blue around the edges of the bottle, and I was a bit afraid this wouldn't transfer as well onto my nails, but it did. Depending on how the light hits them, my nails are gold, green, even blueish green, or all of the above. Not easy to catch in photos, but I have sort of managed, be sure to check out the pictures after the jump! (Sorry about the picture quality, I used my phone to take the photos as I was pressed for time.)

Formulawise it's lovely. Goes on like a dream, not too thick, not too runny, dries quickly and it's soooo shiny! It took only 2 coats to be completely opaque. Unfortunately it did chip me within the first 24 hours, but I always like to point out that almost everything chips on me within a day, that's because I have crappy soft, bendy nails. It costs £17.50 for a 13 ml bottle, so it's not cheap, but it is Chanel after all. Is it worth it? It is a very unique shade, so I would say it is, but if you're on a tight budget, you might just want to wait and see if cheaper brands come up with a dupe as they often do. Of course there's also the small matter of this shade being sold out already, as unfortunately it's a limited edition shade.

Don't forget to let me know in the comments if you bought this and whether you like it or not.
