Day 4: Rescue Beauty Lounge Anne

Named for Anne Boleyn, Anne is one of four polishes from Rescue Beauty Lounge’s Real Housewives of the Tudor Dynasty Collection, inspired by the wives of Henry VIII. I’m still not sure why only four of the six wives are represented; Anne of Cleves and Catherine Parr are missing. I’ve made it my mission to franken polishes for them.

I love all of the polishes from this collection, but Anne is my favorite – she’s so complex.

Anne is a dark olive green with gold shimmer and purple and green microglitter. It looks a little drab in the shade, but once the sun hits it all the colors come out (click on the photos to see the sparkle). Very subtle, but that’s what I like about it.

I took a ton of photos for this one. The sun was setting when I got home, so I had to set everything else aside while I took photos. Priorities, you know.

As usual, I'm wearing three coats in the photos, topped with Seche Vite. The formula and brush are perfect. It practically applies itself.

Rescue Beauty Lounge polishes are available for $18 at rescuebeauty.com, but the Tudors polishes sold out pretty quickly after they were released in Fall 2010. They will be re-released later this year. Anne is one of four sold-out polishes being brought back in October, while the others in the Tudors collection—Catherine, Catherine H, and Jane—will be available in December.
