What’s This? What’s This? - Black jelly with rainbow multichrome flakes and ultra holo glitter.

I cannot have a set of creams and not try to watermarble with them + Squid Ink, also from 1850 Artisan. I love how this turned out!

For each cream swatch I used two coats and all were opaque and applied like butter. For the matte look, I used kbshimmer Oh Matte!

The trio is fabulous and if you don't have Squid Ink yet, you should definitely pick it up too!

Live Band or DJ Turn Up!
a pastel pink jelly is filled with large bright pink glitters, shown in a jelly sandwich with Ice-cream Cone or Blue Raspberry Italian Ice. The pink in the base is noticeable in the bottle but I didn't notice the color at all when doing my jelly sandwich so it can definitely be layered in without changing your base shade.

I enjoyed swatching these, and creating the sandwich look with the glitter. The color combination of this set go great together. The formula was fantastic, non-streaky and easy to apply.

I attempted to make this look like a brass leaf with a patina in the gooves. I love how it turned out! I sponged on a brown shimmer polish to help give a more tarnished effect, then stamped with a bright aqua from MdU.
