press sample
It's not often that a new luxury lacquer line comes on the scene. So I was super excited to get the press release for Mischo Beauty. Founder Kitiya King is both a chemist and a licensed cosmetologist. She set out to create fashion forward colors that were also 5-free. If you've read my blog for awhile and know my struggle to be work appropriate and "cool" at the same time...you can probably see why the seven shades in her debut Fashion Week Collection made my heart flutter.
Here's #NYFW. It's a beautiful deep, creamy indigo. My swatch is two flawless coats. I'm not exaggerating. Flaw-less.
And here's the second, called, appropriately, The Tents. It's a very slightly sheer peachy neutral. The effect is really clean and simple. This swatch is also two coats.
The polishes come in short, 15ML heavy-glass square bottles with a nice grippable lid. The brush stem seems really short, but it's easy to control and has a nice brush. Application was perfect with both shades. The formula is creamy (but spreads nicely), stays exactly where you put it, is ultra shiny even before topcoat and dried quickly. At $18 each, they're pricey...but based on my experience, they are worth the splurge! Dare I say they may even be Dior-ish? (gasp) It's the ultimate endorsement!
The Fashion Week Collection is available online only at www.shopmischobeauty.com. Each polish retails for $18US for a 15ML bottle. For news and info, follow Mischo Beauty on facebook, twitter and instagram.
