As we’ve two new collections and a sample sale coming up at the end of the month I thought we’d celebrate our 4th birthday a couple of weeks early. Happy early 4th birthday to us 🎈 🎂 #aussieindies #indiesshakeitbetter #gracefullnailpolish #aipaslove #nails #nailpolish https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo2flM8At_0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17k1o15rcutkp
Today I’m showing off The Black Empire, the Femme Fatale “Fiend of the Month” from October! The FoTM polishes are a secondary CoTM (availuible only to members of their FB group) based on user-submitted inspiration photos.
In October they actually did two FoTM/CoTM sets, and this beauty was part of the “Pagan Gods” duo, based on this crazy image of the Black Empire from World of Warcraft:
The Black Empire- a deep purple base with scattered holo, and red-green iridescent flakies.
This polish was mostly opaque in 2 coats, tho I did need a third to even out some smudges and really deepen the base color. I’m all about using extra layers for flakies polish tho, because I really love how the depth they get layered!
The flakies in this polish typically pull a bright red, but I got lucky (or unlucky, depending on your preference) and wasn’t able to get any pictures of just the red, even tho that’s how it normally presents! So hopefully you’ll enjoy the effect of the full color spectrum this polish has to offer :)
This polish is not longer availible, but if you want a chance to grab any future FoTM colors (and participate in suggestions and voting!) you should head on over to the Femme Fatale Fiends FB group. In general you can purchase at their website
Femme Fatale Cosmetics
Or at one of their several lovely stockists (linked on their website) all over the world.
Sneaky video of our new labels! How awesome are they? Plus a sneaky of an up and coming polish from an unreleased collection (very hard to capture) #aussieindies #shadesofphoenix #aussieindiepolish #aipaslove #aipas #indiepolish411 #indienailpolish #indiepolishswatches #aussienails
