Press Sample of the Pahlish
Russian Ballet Collection & Black Friday GWP
We’re still moving along and keeping up… and I’m kind of impressed with myself. Next up for the Black Friday week of goodies we have Pahlish Russian Ballet Collection and her Black Friday GWPs!
Look at all 15 of those beauties.
The Pahlish Russian Ballet Collection is a 13 piece set and Pahlish is offering two Gift With Purchase shades. One you get for spending $50 and up, the other you get for spending $75 and up. If you spend $75+ then you get both GWP shades.
Let’s start in on this set and take a look. I’ll have all Black Friday info for Pahlish at the bottom of this post.
Who’s ready?
Pahlish | Glass Cabinet
Glass Cabinet is a soft, lavender tinged sky blue crelly base with a mix of iridescent flakes that flash pale green, soft yellow, blue, aqua, purple and pink. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
This shade is very flake heavy – so I suggest thinner coats to avoid a flake pileup.
Pahlish | Celesta
Celesta is a dusty violet jelly base loaded with a mix of iridescent flakes that flash pale green, soft yellow, blue, aqua, purple and pink. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
This is a flake heavy polish, so I do suggest thin coats to avoid a flake pileup.
Pahlish | Casse Noisette
Casse Noisette is a soft white crelly base with a mix of metallic red and gold flakes, as well as crushed gold flakes mixed in. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Imperial Theatre
Imperial Theatre is a faded prussian blue creme with crushed gold flakes. This is a little more greyed out in person than my photos show. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Tiny Ginger Snaps
Tiny Ginger Snaps is a vibrant rust red crelly with crushed gold flakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Clockmaker
Clockmaker is a soft, buttery yellow creme with crushed gold flakes. Very few yellows look good on me, but this one looked perfect. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Puppet Maker
Puppet Maker is a bright, grassy green with silver holographic flecks mixed in. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | St. Petersburg
St. Petersburg is a rich garnet red creme with silver holographic flecks mixed in. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Doll Kingdom
Doll Kingdom is a strawberry pink jelly base loaded with scattered holographic microflakes and copper to rose to green shifting shimmer. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
This is one of my top picks for this collection. It’s beautiful.
Pahlish | Seven Crowns
Seven Crowns is a delicate, light grey creme with scattered holographic microflakes and soft copper to rose to green shifting pigment. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Lilac Fairy
Lilac Fairy is a pale periwinkle crelly with glowy rosey pink to soft gold shimmer. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
I need a gallon of this color. It’s amazing, and another top pick.
Pahlish | Pas de Deux
Pas de Deux is a medium orchid purple creme with green to pink shifting shimmer. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Mariinsky
Mariinsky is a bright blue base with aqua to purple shimmer mixed in. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Pahlish | Odette ($50+ GWP)
Odette is a delicate porcelain blue creme with crushed gold flakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
This shade will not be available for purchase. If you spend $50+, Odette will be added to your order for free. This is also an exclusive shade for the Black Friday event.
Pahlish | Clockwork Castle
Clockwork Castle is a deep indigo jelly based scattered holographic with microflakes and a soft coppery rose to green multichrome shimmer. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
Clockwork Castle is free with all orders $75 and up. It’s also exclusive to the Black Friday event.
If you spend $75 or more – you will receive Clockwork Castle AND Odette.
Pahlish | Russian Ballet Collection & Black Friday GWP
Once again, Pahlish puts out a stunning collection as well as incredible Gift With Purchase shades. The majority of these just screams “classy” and I think it’s the crushed gold flake in softer shades that do that for me.
I had no application issues, however – Glass Cabinet and Celesta are very flake heavy so I can see potential application issues with them if you aren’t careful. I personally recommend thinner coats which allow you to get an even flake spread and manipulate the flakes if they start to overlap other flakes and make a little pileup. Aside from that heads up – there were no issues at all that I had.
