I have a beautiful new collection by Moo Moo Signatures to share with you today! The above 5 polishes are from The Legend of Moon Goddess collection and they were kindly sent to me to swatch by Alex from Nail-Artisan. There is a story behind this collection and some of the polishes. They are based on one of the legends for Mid-Autumn/Mooncake Festival which is celebrated by Chinese and Vietnamese.
The story goes like this......
Three immortals reincarnated themselves into three poor old people and begged food from a fox, a monkey and a rabbit. The fox and monkey both gave food to the immortals. However, the rabbit did not have any food. It then said to the immortals: “you can eat me” and jumped into the fire. The immortals were so moved by the rabbit and sent it to the moon to become an immortal jade rabbit. Ever since, the jade rabbit stayed in the Moon Palace to accompany Chang E and pounded immortal medicine for those living in the heaven.
First up is Elixir of Life which is a lovely pastel peach with gold and green shimmer. You can actually see the tiny flakies in the swatch but I couldn't capture the greenness in them. This Polish represents the medicine of mortality which Chang E took and flew to the moon. Three coats with no top coat.
How pretty is Chang E?! It's a gorgeous orchid holo with tiny purple flakies, tiny red flakies and a hint of silver microflakies. This is one of my favourite colours. Three coats and no top coat.
Next we have the very generous Jade Rabbit who sacrificed himself at the beginning of the story. It's mint crelly with red shimmer, iridescent glitters and tiny red/green flakies. Three coats and no top coat.
Palace in the Moon is most certainly my favourite from this collection! Palace in the Moon is a turquoise holo with blue shimmer, tiny blue flakies and a bit of silver microflakies. Chang E and Jade Rabbit live in the Palace in the Moon together.
The last polish is a gorgeous glitter topper. Thousands of Years of Fairytale is packed full of iridescent hexes, clear holo glitters and tiny green flakies. I just love this topper! It's so pretty and suitable for layering over anything. One coat over Palace in the Moon.
This collection is just beautiful! There's not a polish that I don't like! Moo Moo Signatures contain 12ml and they are 4 free and cruelty free. You can buy them in the UK from Nail-Artisan.
What do you think of this collection? Any favourites?
Bye for now x
