| Fanciful Friday - Vintage Cosmetics Advertising |


Hi everyone,

HAPPY FRIDAY!

Today's post is part of the new 'Fanciful Friday's' series here on Profound Feline, it is a series where the imagination and fantastical whimsy of beauty is shared. I hope you enjoy!

I could not resist in posting these stunningly glamorous vintage cosmetics advertisements, including brands like Avon, Revlon, Tru Glow & Seventeen Cosmetics. I think they capture the enchanting femininity of the 1940's & 1950's glam era perfectly.  


 LOVE 












Aren't they just darling?! 


Keep in touch,

| ♡ Valentines Day ♡ 'Nail of the Day' featuring ESSIE 'Tie The Knot' & Chi Chi 'Glitteratti' |


Every February 14th, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. Therefore, with Valentines Day upon us the idea of a Valentines themed 'Nail of the Day' seemed like a perfect idea! 



Here in Australia we are well into summer and with this I've been craving brighter colours on my nails. Instead of opting for my standard racy red I went with glitter polish! I am quite a lover of glitter polishes nowadays, only discovering this love in recent years. 

On Valentines Day I will be wearing:


ESSIE 'Tie The Knot' & Chi Chi  'Glitteratti'


  • ESSIE 'Tie The Knot' is described as a  'pale and pretty buff colour' 


I featured swatches of Essie's 'Tie The Knot' in a previous post, see here: Essie Nail Polish Haul + Swatches 



  •  Chi Chi  'Glitteratti' is a 'flat-hexagonal multi-coloured glitter polish with a subtle pink gloss' 



Chi Chi 'Glitteratti' has quickly become a standout favourite in my glitter polish collection & my ESSIE collection holds a special place in my heart. Chi Chi nail polish retails for $12.95 AUD and Essie for 18.95 AUD.

Although both brands are more expensive than Rimmel or Essence for example, the quality and staying power speaks for itself. This manicure usually lasts a good 5-7 days before chipping (and that's without applying a top coat) Unbelievable?!
It's true!



Below is the picture that inspired this NOTD post. I posted this picture to my Instagram a few months back, and got some beautiful comments from you all. Thank you!

If you would like to take a look at my pictures or follow each other on Instagram, find me at: @profound_feline    



What are you favourite glitter polishes on the market? I would love some of your recommendations! 


I hope your Valentines Day is spent with that special someone. Even if it's a date with  Ryan Gosling  in 'The Notebook' with Mr Cadbury Chocolate as chaperon.

Happy Valentines Day!
