Femme Fatale Cosmetics | Birth of Venus

MAGYAR verzió                                                                                                                                      PR sample

I have the newly launched Femme Fatale Cosmetics collection called Birth of Venus. The collection was inspired by a Botticelli painting: The Birth of Venus.
 Sophie did it again, I'm obsessed with this collection! I believe there's something for everyone in here, and if you enjoy shimmers (I mean real shimmers, not those microflake ones) than this collection will definitely offer you some great choices!


ARRIVAL OF VENUS
A burnt orange with a strong linear holo effect.
3 thin coats + topcoat. 



ISLE OF CYTHERA
A slightly dusty pine green linear holo with golden-lime shimmer flakes. Love it!
3 thin coats + topcoat.



HEAVENLY RAIMENT
It's a pale pink (with slight salmon tones) base with silver holo microglitters and turquoise-lavender shimmer flakes.
Nice, easy application, I used 3 thin coats, but 2 normal should be enough as well. I used 1 thick coat of topcoat, it doesn't dries too textured.



GOLDEN-WREATHED & BEAUTIFUL
It's a pale peach color with strong lime/green shimmer. It has a wonderful formula, the shimmer is very strong and opaque, I used only 2 coats, and it's streak free!



FLORAL RAIN
It's my absolute favorite from the collection, in fact it's in my top10 polish favorites! It's dark, mysterious and unearthly, and I'm so obsessed with it!
It has a murky olive/swamp green jelly base that has a lot of silver holo microglitters and a strong red to pink to gold shimmer flame. LOOOOVE IT! :)
I used 3 thin coats and 1 thick coat of topcoat (it doesn't dries textured).



SWEPT ACROSS THE SEA
It's the only one thermal in the collection. In it's warm state it has a clear base with a strong and perfect gold shimmer sheen, and in it's cold state it has a turquoise-teal base which makes the gold shimmer lime green. Sadly the warm (gold) state doesn't really looks nice on my skintone, but I absolutely ADORE the cold state, so stunning with that unbelievably strong shimmer!
I used 3 thin coats, but 2 normal coats should do the trick as well!



BREATH OF ZEPHYROS
It's a clear base with linear holo, gold holo microglitters and a strong blue-lavender shimmer.
Depending on your application you will need 2-3 coats, and 1 thick coat of topcoat.



UPON SEAFOAM
It's a pale turquoise color with some silver microflakes and gold to pink shimmer. Love it!
Nice and easy formula, but it requires 3 coats.



HORAE AWAITS
It's a pinky-beige/nude with itsy-bitsy silver holo microglitters and lavender shimmer.
You will need 2-3 easy coats depending on your application.

                                                     
Amazing shades, right? They are available at the australian (HERE) and the newly launched american (HERE) Femme Fatale websites, both sites offer international shipping!
You can find the stockist list HERE, they will carry these shades mid-late August onwards, so mark your calendars!

Let me know which are your favorites!

  1. It's an elegant collection. My favorites are Floral Rain and Upon Seafoam. I liked thermal polish too, but I think it'll be weird with my skintone.
