Aphrodite Lacquers: True Love & Broken Hearts Collections

Hi all!  Today I've got two Aphrodite Lacquers to show you; one from the True Love collection (glitter toppers) and one from the Broken Hearts collection (jelly glitters).  I'm no stranger to Rebecca's brand (you can see all my previous posts here) so you know it's a big deal when I say that this post contains what is probably my favourite Aphrodite Lacquer to date!  


Because of that, this post is pretty picture-heavy; continue reading after the jump!  ;)
Of course I'm saving my favourite for last, but this first one is quite pretty too!  True Love Forever is a mix of "pink and red shimmer, with various holo and metallic glitters ranging from pink to fuchsia to red".  



I layered one coat over Butter London Queen Vic, and topped it with one coat of Essence Gel Look top coat.  The glitters needed a little help to spread evenly, but not too much trouble at all! 



Ahh, here it is... Standing Here Waiting is described as "various sizes and shapes of matte white glitters/ silver holo glitters/ blueish-purple iridescent glitters." 


I just want to drown in this one, it's SO stunning!   The blue jelly base is the most perfect rich royal blue, and the sheer matte white glitters give it so much depth.  I just keep coming back to look at these photos, it's absolutely beautiful!  Do yourself a favour and click to enlarge these ones.  You won't regret it.  


I layered two coats of Standing Here Waiting over OPI Eurso Euro, and topped it with one coat of Essence Gel Look top coat.  The glitters practically leaped out of the bottle onto the brush in hoards.  Application was magical.  LOVE!!! 



These and other Aphrodite Lacquers are available through Etsy (though her shop is currently closed), but make sure to like her on Facebook to keep up-to-date on when she's restocking these beauties! 

It's quite obvious what my favourite of these two is, but I want to hear your opinion!  Sound off in the comments!  :)
