Missha are a Korean brand... and they make awesome polish. HGR01 has been getting a lot of attention lately. I'm really glad that Missha are becoming more popular! I feel like their brand has been so overlooked and unappreciated. Their colours are awesome, and they come in the cutest bottles ever. HEARTS! HOMG! So adorable!
These three all seem to have the same sort of glitter and finish. Don't they look like they belong in a collection together? I think there's also a couple of other colours with the same finish but I'm not sure.
I got a couple of questions last time I posted a Missha on where I got these so in case anyone's wondering, I get most of my Missha at the Box Hill store in Melbourne, Australia. If you're in the Melbourne area and you want to see the polishes in person, then the store in located in Box Hill Central between the train station and Sweet As (chocolates!). Also, since the store doesn't carry the complete range, I've also got some off eBay from this seller. Actually, I've got one coming now thanks to Kaz :D
First up, the fuchsia - GVL01
The actual colour is a little less purple than my swatches. It's closer to the bottle picture. GVL01 is a fuchsia/violet/purple with loads of silver and pink glitter. I was able to take a more detailed close up so you guys can better see what it looks like IRL. Be sure to click for lots more detail.
Can you see the different shaped glitters? Small squares and hexagons. It gives the polish much more interest than just a straight, single glitter. I love it! Lots of depth!
This is GBL01..
This one is a mix of blue and silver glitter in a blue base. It reminds me of a crystal or something - very icy looking. Insanely sparkly.
GGL01. The formula was patchy and horrible and it doesn't look so hot against my skin tone. But still, this is possibly my favourite... Why? BECAUSE IT'S ALMOST A GOD DAMN YELLOW GLITTER.
I don't think I've ever seen a true yellow glitter that is dense, opaque (not jelly with sparse glitters) and most importantly, yellow. This isn't technically yellow but it comes so close. It's a warm yellow base that has a mix of both silver and gold glitters. I think the gold retains the yellow-ness of the base but the silver stops it from overwhelming the polish and making it look too gold.
The overall look is a yellow glitter. Insanity! If you love glitter, yellow or unique colours, then in all seriousness - YOU NEED THIS. fo'real.
Wow.. that was an extremely long, rambling post. Props to you if you read it all :D
The three I have to show you today are GVL01 (the fuchsia), GGL01 (yellow) and GBL01 (blue).
