Rescue Beauty Lounge: Scrangie - Limited Edition, Haul & Photos

A month ago, I received an email from Rescue Beauty Lounge about their Bring It Back shades (Part 2 or BIB2). Every once in a while, Rescue Beauty brings back their most sought-after, coveted shades. I, as a late comer to the Rescue Beauty craze, is scrambling to get my hands on as many as I can when the opportunity presents itself. This time I ordered as soon as I got that email. And last week, a box was at home waiting for me. There are 6 six shades available for BIB2: Scrangie, Mismas, Orbis, Locavore, 360 and Anne. I ordered 3 of the six and their pictures are below. Of course I'm going to pick up anything purple:) As always, Rescue Beauty always delivers the best when it comes to the unique names and shades of their lacquers. First off, the packaging on these are so pretty. I was surprised by the color red- makes it very classy. I'm going to do a more thorough review of each of the shades as soon as I get to try them out. Today, I will be posting pictures and my thoughts about Scrangie. 

Scrangie is a gorgeous purple that has blue irredescent shimmer througout. You can also detect a hint of green shimmer in it as well. The lacquer applied well, about 2 coats for me. I always apply a top coat for a more shiny effect. Scrangie looks even better in the sunlight. It's slowly becoming one of my favorites.

I wanted to post this review along with pictures today because all 6 colors are available for purchase at the Rescue Beauty site. Each lacquer retails for $18US.

Tip: Check back with the site in early December because they are doing another round of Bring It Back shades. Can't wait!

What do you think? Have you tried Rescue Beauty lacquers before?

Until next time,

Nail of the Day: Rescue Beauty in Piu Mosso

A few days ago, I posted a picture of the Rescue Beauty nail polish in Piu Mosso. I was really curious to try this color on. First I must mention to please excuse the botchy nail job. I did this in a hurry sooo...let's get on with the review

This is my first Rescue Beauty nail polish. In my purchase, I actually bought 2. Of the two polish I ordered, I was actually suprised that I gravitated towards this one instead of the other lighter shade i bought. 

I got this nail polish back in July???...I think??? I had to pre-order the shades which would be sent to me by the end of August. And sure enough, it was right on time! (I actually already posted the 2 I bought ...see my previous post). 

Anyway, the color I'm featuring here is called Piu Mosso. This is very intriguing and unique color. When you first look at it from the bottle, it looks really dark, almost greenish in tone. However, when swiped, it takes on an entirely different shade. The color looks more like a very dark blue/purple with reddish shimmers??? The shimmer that runs through the color is very fine and you can detect it in different light. 

1st pic above: without flash, it's very, very dark and you can see a hint of shimmer

2nd pick above: with flash, it takes on a blue/teal/purple tone with a hint of pink shimmer

The color is very pigmented. I used 2-3 coats and I applied a top coat to make it all nice and shiny:) The texture is very smooth

Overall, this shade, I LOVE!!!! It's so unique. I don't have any color like it. It's perfect for the fall season. I like the fact that it appears dark, almost black but really does take on an actual color of blue/purple with shimmer. I recommend this shade. You can purchase this at the RescueBeauty site. The polish retails for $18. 


What do you all this of this shade? Is it something you would wear? purchase? Let me know your thoughts:)


Thanks for reading and I'll see you in my next post!

Rescue Beauty Lounge: Pizzicato and Piu Mosso

About a month ago, I pre-ordered a couple of new Fall nail polishes from Rescue Beauty Lounge. I've always been curious to try the brand because they have some unique sets of colors. The only problem is that when you do spot a particular shade sometimes it sells out so fast. If I remember correctly, there were four new shades and I picked 2 of the 4. One thing that really impressed me was that shipping time frame was right on time. End of August they came.

First , I want to say that these are my first Rescue Beauty Lounge nail poishes. I think that at least one of nail polishes I ordered is quite unique. But another first, let's talk packaging. The packaging was wrapped so delicately (see below) that I almost did not want to tear the paper apart.

Upon unwrapping, the nail polishes comes in this pretty box packaging.
The two that i bought were Pizzicato and Piu Mosso. I take it this seems like it's italian-inspired names.

I would describe Pizzicato as light lavender with a hint of pink and fine shimmers throughout. I had swatched a bit of the color on my thumb and I must say it is pretty. It comes off sheer so if you are anything like me and want a more opaque color, then layering more than 2 coats is necessary. I put about 3 or 4 coats on and that's about good enough for me. Unfortunately, I didn't take any picture. Maybe it will be the next nail of the day post.

Moving on to Piu Mosso. This color honestly, took me by surprise. Initially, I thought that this was not the shade I'm going to like. But upon full inspection and swatch (again...sorry to pics), I like this shade better than Pizzicato. Don't get me wrong..Pizzicato is gorgeous but can be dupeable. Anyway, back to Piu Mosso....it's rather hard to describe this shade. First off, to me this shade is very unique. In the bottle, it's very dark with several shades running throughout depending on the lighting. You could see hints of green with gold shimmers or a dark teal blue with shimmer. It's gorgeous and very unique. I don't believe I have any other polish like this one. Maybe this one will be my next nail of the day post. Hmmm..it also seems to have burgundy shimmer. Interesting. Anyway, I say this is a great buy.
