Have you ever tried A England? It’s an amazing brand that has some of the best formula for polishes out there. Smooth and buttery and incredible colors.
Tonight I have 2 new shades that are joining the A England lineup to share with you. Excalibur Renaissance and Hurt No Living Thing.
Excalibur Renaissance
Excalibur Renassaince is a true silver metallic foil. Like most true metallics, this one is susceptible to visible brush strokes and may accentuate any nail imperfections such as prominent nail ridges, indentations, etc. I actually have a habit of buffing my nails to eliminate most of my ridges (I have thick nails, so even though I know it’s a no-no I still do it cause I prefer my nails that way) but brush strokes are still visible in my application.
This is a gorgeous metallic foil though and is pretty much a one coater, but I did use 2 for these photos and no top coat.
Hurt No Living Thing
Hurt No Living Thing is a gorgeous shade, both on it’s own and layered over other colors. Hurt No Living Thing is a sheer greyish lilac base with pink shimmer. While I do love this polish on it’s own as shown above, it’s also gorgeous over other colors, both light and dark. A little further down I will show it over black.
These photos show 3 coats of Hurt No Living Thing on it’s own with a top coat.
Hurt No Living Thing Over Black
Hurt No Living Thing comes to life over darker colors especially. It really brings out the fantastic shimmer within it and transforms any shade.
Shown is 1 coat of Hurt No Living Thing over Mentality Rascal
Overview
While Excalibur Renaissance needs a little extra care to apply, it is a nicely pigmented metallic foil. I’m planning on using it for stamping soon to see how well it does. Because it was one coat polish, I would think it’s stamping abilities would be amazing. Hurt No Living Thing is absolutely gorgeous and definitely my favorite of the two polishes shown.
Price: $10.00

I had seen one swatch of Hurt No Living Thing, but I didn’t know where to get it! I love A-England – her polishes are what sucked me into nail polish. St. George is one of my all-time faves. I want HNLT!
Saint George is a must have for all nail polish lovers! That and Tristam.. and Princess Tears… and Dancing with Nureyev… and… :p
I like the foil finish! Cant wait to see what you come up w/ it.
They look beautiful!
Haven’t tried but love the metallics, a lot! I would totally buy these.
Hurt No Living Thing over black is such a stunning combo!!
Hurt No Living Thing is soo prettyy!!
OOoooooooh these are nice. I really really like need that “Hurt No Living” it looks gorgeous by itself and OMG amazing over black. Love it.
Excalibur Renaisance does look a bit tricky to handle, and I always have trouble with metallic foils streaking and smudging on me.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to
make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about,
why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos
to your blog when you could be giving us something informative to
read?
