Recently, B. and I were shopping a bit, and we came across a whole new-to-us line from flormar. The flormar line made quite an impression on us with their super miracle shine polishes, so we were excited to try out these mattes!
flormars have exciting names, such as this one: flormar M03. It’s witty, thoughtful and cheeky, without being improper, don’t you think?
Application-wise, they were all super quick drying. They feel like chalkboard when you touch them, and they are safe to touch after 4-5 minutes (we’re talking two coats here, not one). I applied two coats of each of the polishes.
flormar M03 is a matte (surprise!) charcoal grey. It is so dark it could be mistaken for a washed out black. (I’m so funny today, I don’t know what happened!) Lovely color, especially in matte.
flormar M04 is what I’d call the color of how I want the sea to look like when I go on vacation to the Maledives (I’ve never been, nor am I planning on going anytime soon – that is, unless I win the lottery). It is beautiful. It is also amazing matte, so this polish was a complete winner in my books. The soft color is enhanced by the soft finish, which gives it sort of a cozy hue.
flormar M09 is the opposite of soft. It’s preppy neon pink, extremely bright and an amazing toe nail polish for summer. I would love to be at a beach right now, sip some beach cocktail with a lot of fruit and tiny umbrellas and other stuff that doesn’t belong in a serious person’s drink, and have this nail polish on my toes.
The only polish that didn’t fully satisfy me was flormar M10. It was a bit thinner than the others, and I think I should have applied a third coat. I don’t like the color all too much, but it’s nice. I think I’d have preferred it if it had some shimmer in it.
In retrospective, flormar M12 wouldn’t have been hurt by a third coat either. I adore the color. It’s such an elegant deep blue (is it prussian blue?), absolutely amazing. I wish I had a dress in that color.
Did you pick up any of these?
I am seriously in love with these Matte polishes. I have a couple of the Neon ones too, they scream neon. Also their scented nail polish remover in grape is brilliant. Really impressed as they were new to me when I stumbled across them whilst on holiday. Your swatches are great and make me wish I had picked up more!
Thank you!
I haven’t seen these in our stores yet. I like matte finish so I might see if I can get my hands on some of these. They look rather nice, but to me the first one looks deep purple, not grey.
It’s grey, maybe the screen shows it differently :S
Ich hab mir ja schon damals gedacht als Beth sich einen Nagel lackiert hat, dass die was können. Muss morgen wohl am Weg durchs DZ auch bei Flomar vorbei schauen und meine Mattlacksucht befriedigen. Die Namensgabe ist übrigens total kreativ, wer sich das wohl hat einfallen lassen.
Ooooooh I want the turquoise!!!
It’s awesome
Those are some awesome mattes…that turquoise in particular is really calling my name.
That one is definitely the stand-out shade from the collection!
Loving the deep blue!
It’s my second favorite
