RAINBOW HONEY: [The Final Battle] Sapphire Weapon, Meteor, Diamond Dust, Ruby Weapon, & Ultimate Weapon

Pin It
Rainbow Honey (L->R/T->B) Sapphire Weapon, Meteor,
Diamond Dust, Ruby Weapon and Ultimate Weapon

Hey guys! I'm back into the swing of things, well kindaaaaa! Today I have 5 polishes to show you from Rainbow Honey's The Final Battle Collection. This collection is packed with all kinds of great and unique polishes! I think you should take a peek :]

Also, please bear with me for the next month or so. I'm trying to adjust to having a new environment to take swatch pictures in... so they might look different from post to post until I get it perfect like at my last apartment! <3 In addition, the new iOS7 camera update has me lacking all sorts of strategies and techniques that I'm used to *sigh*

Ruby Weapon is a "darkened ruby red with copper and gold shimmer". I was really happy how well the gold shimmer transferred onto the nail. I should of been surprised though, RH always has shimmers down on LOCK! :P The rich, deep, juicy ruby color is also gorgeous. I didn't think I'd like this polish. I had a "same 'ol, same 'ol" attitude, I won't lie haha, but I really ended up liking this one :]

I did 3 coats of Ruby Weapon, no top coat. It would of been good to go in 2 coats but I decided to go for 3 for a richer, deeper look. It didn't give me any application issues and the dry time was also without problems.

Meteor  is described as "smoldering metals and minerals shine through in this clear base full of black, gold, and fiery glitters". I honestly think this is one of the more unique polishes in this collection. I was intrigued by it before I saw swatches. The colors, shapes, sizes and finishes in this polish is one brilliant mixture. What I like about this is that with all the differences in the glitter in this polish, I really think it makes it look like a textured polish.

I did 1 coat over Ruby Weapon, no top coat. I feel like my bottle was a little thick and sticky, which is why 1 coat was easy to achieve. It could of benefited from a little bit of polish thinner to make the application process 10x easier. I'm not sure if my bottle was unscrewed a little bit before I unboxed the polishes, but it was a little dried out. I didn't have any issues with dry time.

Rainbow Honey Sapphire Weapon is a "deep navy blue with green and gold shimmer". was one polish I KNEW I had to have, it pretty much has everything I love in one polish haha. I love the deep blue shade of the base and the shimmer just makes it 100348x better, don't you think? Kind of reminded me of Starry Night by Vincent van Gough.

I did 2 coats of Sapphire Weapon, no top coat. The application and dry time were blow flawless. I am also very happy to report that it doesn't stain haha. You know when you put a coat on of a blue in that shade and you just know it's going to stain? That's how I felt about this one. Thankfully it's stain free! :P

Rainbow Honey Ultimate Weapon

Ultimate Weapon is a deep, "blackened violet with a bright blue shimmer". THE CONTRAST! MY HEART! I can't describe how much I love this polish. The blue shimmer pops so much against the sea of deep, dark purple. You should buy it and see for yourself in person, it's pretty great haha.

I did 2 coats of Ultimate Weapon, no top coat. (Imagine how nuts this would be with top coat haha) This one again gave me no issues and dried in good time. No complaints from me :]

Diamond Dust is a "frost, ice, and shimmer come together with a fine holographic sparkle in a clear base". This polish is off the hook. Not only is holographic glitter a win, but the violet and purple shift? Holy cannoli. Can you see that macro shot? If that's not an instant galaxy, I don't know what is! I'm not one for top coat polishes similar to this one, but this one is awesome in my book :]

I did 2 coats off Diamond Dust over a black crème polish. The application was smooth and gave me no issues. The dry time was also great. I didn't have a single issue with this polish.

The past few Rainbow Honey collections that have came out, I've been overly impressed... but this one blows the other 2 out of the water. If you're hesitating to grab one of these, DO IT! You won't be disappointed!
