Femme Fatale Ruby Hare

The weather has been so weirdly variable lately, that while the sun is shining, holos are most definitely called for.

Aaaaaaahhhhh, Femme Fatale's 2013 holographic collection (you bet your butt I'm sounding like an old lady going on about "back in my day").  At the time, I only picked up 2 or three of the 10 piece set, and over the years I've realized that was wrong of me, and now I'm still hunting for a couple of them.

Ruby Hare is a raspberry pink-wine linear holographic with a metallic contrast shimmer overlay.  Ini direct light (above), you get a blinding flash of warm electric pink, while angled light (below) gives you a warmer coppery shine in the middle of the holo flame.

Just like all her sisters, Ruby Hare has a dead-perfect formula.  Nearly opaque in just one coat (2 shown here), ideal thickness, perfect brush, zero cleanup issues or cuticle staining.  This is why we fall in love with indies, people.  It just works.

Ruby Hare was one of the ones I left behind in my initial picks.  The color somewhere between wine and dusty rose felt too girly, too pink, too not my thing.  And yeah, it's not an edgy cobalt, but how flattering and elegant is this?  And that shimmer!

Rating:  4 out of 5 stars, the only way this perfection could be more perfect was if I loved pink like I do green.  If you love pink, it's easily 5+ out of 5.

Where to buy:  if you find a secret stash of these holos laying around somewhere, let a girl know, ok?  Like I said, I'm still missing a couple.  Otherwise, haunt those destashes!
