Essence Colour3 Boys Are Back In Town

Hello my lovelies! I'm almost done with my exams and I have more free time than last week, but I'm still feeling quite uninspired. I decided to post something from the vault today because these pictures have been sitting on my computer for too long and it might be your last chance to get this polish. Essence has discontinued the Colour3 polishes, but they are still available here and there, so maybe you can find them on clearance somewhere. The one I'm showing you today is more of a neutral combo. Let's start with the base polish.

Boys Are Back In Town is quite an interesting creme. It's somewhere between grey and purple, very elegant and less boring than other neutral shades. Of course it didn't photograph accurately like most of these colors. It's more grey in reality but it also depends on the light. The formula was nice and I managed to get it opaque in 2 coats. What you see above is 2 coats without any top coat. It's definitely shiny so please excuse the reflection. However, the best part about this duo is the shimmer top coat.

If the base color doesn't convince you to get this duo, the top coat will. It's a beautiful and dense shimmer in a clear base. There are multiple colors of shimmer in there, like purple and blue, even though they don't show up right in photos. I really did my best to capture the effect.

What I love about this is the density of the shimmer. It only took one coat to get this result. I haven't tried layering it over other colors but I'm sure it would look great over anything.

I hope you enjoyed looking at this beauty. If you can still find it and don't have it I really think you should get it. It's hard to find such a good layering shimmer, especially for an affordable price.
