I have to say the packaging of this collection was so beautiful, then it made me excited to see what the shades would be like. I was not disappointed at all with these lovely wild nude colours. They are pigmented even with one coat, apply flawlessly and dry with a beautiful true to shade colour finish. They are versatile shades that can be mixed with other shades from Essie, to brighten or have a neutral look depending on the event your attending. 

As the sun was shining I decided to do some nail art, taping off half the nail then using each shade having the glitter tip to really pop the colour. I love the effect and was impressed by the longevity of this collection with no chips or need to touch up the polish. Fantastic collection and this is the first part of my Essie series. I will have a review and more nail art with the vibrant new Gel Couture shades plus highlight four of the treatment polishes for brittle nails with tips on great nail health. 

Tartlette - In bloom palette review

My thoughts : 

I really love this palette as the shadows are buttery and blend like a dream. Its probably the best neutral set i have in my range of palettes. 

The magic moonflower look. 

I achieved this look from the card which was enclosed. Also added some added sparkle plus used the darkest colour for  more definition. It gave the most beautiful finished look, I couldnt believe it was so easy to achieve. Blendability was fantastic, fallout was minimal bar a few specks of glitter. It's highly pigmented and i would recommend to anyone wanting a fantastic neutral palette.
