Nail Art Stamping: Chemistry #518 w/ Gosh Holographic

I love everything to do with bows, and I love to use this cute bow from my Fauxnad plate to add a little cuteness to my mani.

Base: Chemistry #518 stamped with Gosh Holographic

I used Gosh Holographic for the bow, it is a great polish for stamping! As for the base polish, it is #518 by Chemistry, a pinkish red linear holo. The prismatic effect of #518 is so strong, it almost hurts my eyes to look at it under the sun! The formula is faultless too, I must get more Chemistry polishes next time I go back to Australia!

A Duo Beauty: Chemistry #521

Chemistry #521 - two coats with top coat

Today I have for you another polish I brought back from Australia, Chemistry #521. #521 is a grape purple base duochrome, which shifts from purple to burgundy / pinkish red / copper depending on the lighting.

This is almost a completely different shade to the base color!
Although I am usually not a fan of duochrome, #521 is gorgeous because it has tiny pink and purple shimmers that dance on your nails. I also have a lot of fun moving my hands all over the place, trying to see if I can discover more "hidden" colors!  I love the Chemistry polish formula too, two easy coats with minimal cleanup required.

I really don't have much else to say, so I will leave you with more swatches of this color shifting beauty!

Chemistry Holos Skittle Swatch

When I went back to Melbourne in September for a family visit/ holiday, I picked up a few Chemistry polishes, namely holos and duochromes. You may not have heard of Chemistry, but it is the same polish as Ozotic Pro (just under a different name). Even the polish codes are the same.

Chemistry Skittle Swatch - all two coats
Doesn't this look like rainbow skittles on my nails? All the Chemistry holos are so pretty, with such a strong linear prismatic effect!

#513 is a grape purple holo, #522 is a pink mauve, #516 is a pale pinkish lilac, and #518 is the famous Ozotic true red holo. The formula of these is faultless; no bald spots and is pretty much opaque after two easy coats.



I am really in love with these Chemistry polishes! Unfortunately, they are only sold within Australia via Essential Beauty. If you are not from Australia, you could pick these up under the Ozotic Pro brand at a slightly higher price. I can't wait to get more Chemistry when I go back to Australia next time!
