Tonight I have a very picture heavy post for you! Colors by Llarowe is setting up to release her Winter 2013 Collection as well as add some new shades to her Core Collection of colors!
I’m going to start this post off with the Winter 2013 shades I received!
Coal in My Stocking
Coal In My Stocking is a charcoal grey with tons of silver glitter throughout. I used 2 coats and HK Girl top coat for this photo.
Silver and Gold
Silver and Gold is a two piece set! Both shades are intense holographic shades. “Silver” is a medium silver linear holographic and “Gold” is a vivid gold linear holographic with the slightest tinge of green in it. I used quotes around the Silver and Gold names because they are both actually named Silver and Gold.
Xmas 2013
Xmas 2013 is a glitter top coat with a mix of red, gold and green circle glitter and gold and red micro glitter in a clear base. I used 1 coat over Colors by Llarowe Root Beer and HK Girl top coat to finish the mani.
Rudy
Rudy is a cheery red jelly base packed with gold glass fleck. I used 3 coats for this photo just for depth, but 2 coats would have been perfect! I topped this off with HK Girl Top Coat.
Come Dance The Hora
Come Dance The Hora is pure sparkly perfection. This is a clear base PACKED with silver holographic micro glitters and slightly larger royal blue glitters and small royal blue hex glitters. The above photo is 3 coats and HK Girl Top Coat in regular lighting. Below you will see it close up as well as in artificial lighting and then in natural, direct sunlight.

Holly
Holly is a multi chrome holographic that shifts green/blue/purple/grey/reddish pink. I tried to capture as much shift as possible, but my camera didn’t get it all! I used 2 coats for this phot0.
Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree is a deep green linear holographic. This shade is different from Gizzards & Lizards for those wondering, and I will post a comparison photo. I used 2 coats for this photo.
And a comparison!
Oh Christmas Tree is on the left – Gizzards & Lizards is on the right!
The Man In The Red Suit
The Man In The Red Suite is a red linear holographic polish. I used 2 coats for this photo.
And that completes the Winter 2013 Collection from Colors by Llarowe! Now keep going for my swatches of the colors being added to her Core Collection!
Rizzo
Rizzo is a baby pink linear holographic. I love this one! I used 2 coats for this photo!

Grace
Grace is a multi chrome that shifts purple/blue/hot pink/copper. I tried capturing the shifts as much as I could. I used 3 coats of Grace and HK Girl Top Coat for these photos.
Paper Moon
Paper Moon is an intense lilac linear holographic. I used 2 coats for this photo. Below I will have 2 photos of it under artificial lighting. The color is not accurate in those photos. It does bring out the holo a TON, but it also made the color darker than it is. The actual color is what’s seen above and in the closeup photo in normal lighting.

Woman From Tokyo
Woman From Tokyo is a deep purple linear holographic. I used 2 coats for this photo.
