A-England are back with the Burnes-Jones Dream collection. A collection of holos named after some of the works of Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burne-Jones. One of the things I love about getting a new A-England polish is learning a little slice of history along with it. The names are so intriguing that I have to Google them and I always end up spending hours on Wikipedia reading up on English legend!
This beauty is Rose Bower - a deep berry scattered holo. I used two coats here topped with No7 Top Coat. The polish peeking through on my accent fingers is A-England Excalibur from the Mythicals Collection. It's a silver foil with fine gold flakes running through it - very shiny! Again, two coats was perfect.
You can purchase A-England polishes directly from th website, a-england.co.uk, if you're in the UK. If you're overseas click here to see stockists in your country.
For the deco nails I used a base coat of Excalibur then a coat of No7 Stay Perfect Top Coat to make it dry. I followed that by placing on some striping tape in an art deco-esque pattern and painting over it in Rose Bower. There's a striping tape tutorial here in case the explanation wasn't too clear!
When it was all dry I topped it with two coats of No7 Top Coat.
