Sparitual instinct shimmer and Face of Australia glitterati studio 54

So just in case you thought I only liked OPI and butter London polishes here are a couple of other brands I use.
Sparitual instinct shimmer is a lovely purple. This colour goes on very smoothly, and I find the bottle very easy and practical to use. I have only completed two coats here. However if I was just going to wear it as a singular block colour I would probably do three. I have put two photos of this colour up because I had two very different lights to take photos with. When I purchased this colour I was after a royal purple colour. This is not quite there however I do still love it. In case you can't tell from previous blogs I quite like purple, and as you will see further on in this blog I like to add a little something something to it.

After I had completed with the block colour I added two coats of Face of Australia glitterati studio 54. This is the first time I have used a Face of Australia polish. I was not disappointed and it was so well priced about $3-5 from Priceline. After googling a few other reviews I can say that I am joining the band wagon. Well done to Face of Australia for this product. Face of Australia glitterati studio 54 is a clear polish with copper glitter (small circles with slightly larger hexagon shapes). I was also happy to notice that the glitter stays suspended well and does not sink to the bottom. It also applies very nicely and could easily be worn as a colour on it's own.

On a side note sparitual products advertise on there bottles that they are vegan, and also DBP, formaldehyde resin and toluene free. So most likely an ethical product to be using and supporting. I was listening to the ABC radio the other week and they had an advocate from CHOICE presenting. I was interested to hear that for cosmetics to be sold in China that they MUST be tested on animals. I don't know how true this is as I have not completed any further research. Nor do I complete a whole lot of research on the other products that I use. I certainly am not a member of PETA, however I would like to think of my self as a conscious consumer. However this would appear to be a little naïve. I just thought it is something to keep in mind considering how big the Chinese market is. Does that mean if a company sells cosmetics in Australia they can advertise as cruelty free if all the testing is done in China for market placement? Just an interesting side note to keep in the back of your mind,
