a-england Princess Sabra (Tristam Eyes)

Hey everyone! Hope your week is off to a good start. I had a tough exam this morning but I got a little boost afterwards by finding out I got a new part-time job up at college! Yay! :)

Anyways, it's time to show off yet another beauty from a-england's new The Legend Collection! Today I've got Princess Sabra for you, a gold linear holo. As you can see by the label, this polish technically has two names. The official name, Princess Sabra and then a little note from Adina that the polish was inspired by the eyes of her cat, Tristam. What a cute personal touch!






And with flash...





This is another entrancingly gorgeous polish from The Legend. So far every one I've tried has been a complete homerun! The formula on Princess Sabra is excellent and covers completely in two coats, which is what I used here. Like the other polishes in the collection, I didn't notice any difference in the holographic effect after I put my Seche Vite topcoat on. I love how smooth and sleek these a-england holos look and feel--and of course how much they sparkle! The irridescence on Princess Sabra is really stunning. It's so hard to rank this compared to Dragon and Princess Tears; they each bring something special to the table. I love them all! You honestly can't go wrong with any of these beauties!

  1. Oh, I guess I need this one, too. Got already Ascalon, St. George and Princess Tears, but this one is so gorgeous, just like the entire collection from A England.
    Greetings from Germany! :-)

    1. Every polish I try from this collection impresses me with how amazing it is! You are totally right, the entire collection is so beautiful. And hello from Michigan! :) One of my best friends speaks fluent German so I wish I had her so she could tell me something cool to say in German haha.

    1. Thank you! I don't believe there are any physical stores you can buy a-england from in the US but I know the online US stockists are Llarowe and Overall Beauty (which is where I got my Legend Collection from). I've also ordered some other a-england directly from their official site--international shipping is FREE!

  3. This shade of green seems unique to me, I've never seen a holo like this. It's very pretty! It's so hard to choose a favorite from this collection. I like just about all of them.

    I tagged you with 2 awards!

    1. I'd agree it's quite unique to me as well. I can't think of anything else quite like it. I could never choose a favorite from this set, it'd just be too hard! And thank you, I'll check it out! :)
