Sayuri Nail Lacquer - Fairy Kei & Love Sayuri

More polishes from Aussie indie brand Sayuri tonight following on from Mizurio and OShare that I showed last week.

First up is the base polish I applied my Sayuri polishes over.  This is Layla Softouch Effect polish in Stone. It's a soft and velvety matte finish polish that I picked up recently during the Ozsale Layla sale. Application was flawless and I can't wait to wear the other two colours I purchased as well (especially the beautiful soft gold!!).



Fairy Kei - this polish could be worn on it's own at about three coats, as it has a heavy shimmer that would achieve opacity.  It also contain matte aqua, lavender, and pink hexes of varying sizes, along with tiny iridescent purple glitters.  The strong shimmer tends to lean this a little frosty, but the glitters still show through nicely and don't look bumpy, as can often happen with shimmer/glitter combos.





Love, Sayuri - This one is without a doubt my favourite from the collection.  These photos don't do it any justice because it was just so perfectly glittery and pretty in real life.  Love, Sayuri is a special edition polish made for the launch of Sayuri lacquer, so I don't know how long this one might be around for.  

Love Sayuri has a clear base and contains 10 different coloured holographic glitters. Rose pink, purple, and silver hexes of varying sizes, rose pink and turquoise blue squares, and rose pink and silver butterflies.





I tried to capture some of the pretty holo goodness of this polish under my bathroom light, but it in no way compares to how this one looked on my nails.  I love this polish so much!



Sayuri Nail Lacquer are currently having a mothers day sale and have 20% of all her polishes, bringing them down to $7.96.  They are available through the Sayuri Nail Lacquer website.

Sayuri Lacquer - Mizurio and Oshare

Today I have two recent manis I wore using Sayuri Nail Lacquers.  Sayuri is another Aussie indie brand, but it's only new and currently only ships to Australia.  

These two polishes are from the Sayuri Streets of Tokyo Collection, which is inspired by Japanese street fashion. I don't have the foggiest idea about Japanese street fashion, but the Sayuri website shows pictures, so I can certainly see the inspiration.

Mizurio is a glitter topper that contains periwinkle, navy, gunmetal grey, and silver hexes of varying sizes in a clear base.The perfect undie colour arrived in the mail the same day that I received my Sayuri nail polishes.  China Glaze - Strap on your Moonboots.  Putting Mizuiro on top of the China Glaze polish meant that all the holo effect was hidden, but the base colour was just the perfect shade match.





Oshare, influenced by the fun, bright clothing of the Oshare style is another glitter top coat that contains tiny yellow glitters, large yellow flowers, and turquoise and fuchsia dots in a clear base. 

I decided to create an three toned gradient using the three colours in this polish.  I used Zoya Alegra as the bright magenta - my photos make it look very red, when in fact its much pinker.  The golden colour is China Glaze GR8 and the turquoise is Layla Ceramic Effect #62.





Both polihses applied very easily and I didn't have to fish out glitters.  Both were two coats of the glitter topper with two coats of Seche Vite on top.
