So... who is ready for fall? I know I am! (If I could hibernate during the summer I would, I'm so over summer humidity and heat!) :-p Today I have a sneak peek of colors from SpaRituals upcoming fall collection, Wander. These will be available for pre-order starting: August 1st.
All of these polishes have a satin matte finish, so you don't have to use a topcoat with them. But personally, I think the shimmer comes out better when you use a topcoat. (I used Seche Vite). It's your preference really. These polishes are quite pigmented, and go on smoothly. I only needed two coats for each color below.
Oasis: Really gorgeous deep dark navy blue. With topcoat the shimmer in this really comes out. I stamped with Messy Mansion stamp MM44 and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in Silver Sweep.
Without Topcoat:
Starry Bright: Such a funny name for a rich brown with gold shimmer. It literally reminds me of coffee, or leaves in the fall. I used Messy Mansion stamp MM19, and Maybelline Bold Gold.
Without Topcoat:
Tapestry: Stunning warm red with shimmer that really pops once you add a topcoat. I also used Messy Mansion stamp plate MM44, and Maybelline Bold Gold.
Without Topcoat:

I was also really happy that Sparitual sent me their Protein Boost nail treatment. I usually use OPI Nail Envy Brittle and Dry, and mine was getting low, so I'm happy to try something new. I do get peeling occasionally on the tips of my nails, so I like to use these treatments once in awhile. The directions for the Sparitual Protein Boost says to use it for 7 days and then once condition is restored to your nails, to use it every 3-4 days after that. It dries just as quickly as OPI Nail Envy.
(I'm not seeing this on their website anymore, but you can still find it on Amazon.com. Buy here: SpaRitual Protein Boost).
