Yes you have read to title of this post correctly. Today we are going back in time, all the way back to September last year. As you may or may not know I am a
little bit of a nail polish addict and have a
slight shopping addiction. Those two things combined mean that I have a lot of untried polishes within my collection. I made the decision at the end of last year that I was going to swatch all of the polishes that I had purchased throughout the year. I didn't quite do that so have rolled the challenge over to this year. At this moment in time I have 26 polishes from last year to still swatch. I am slowly working my way through them and the polishes in this post were part of the things I have left to swatch. Yay for finally getting to do them! Now you may notice some changes in my nail length through out this post but these swatches have taken me months to do, literally! Let's just get into the swatches shall we?
Fact Sheet is a light dusty mint holographic with pink/copper/bronze flakies. This is a really pretty polish with a great formula. I used three coats for my swatch.

From Out Of Nowhere is a blurple creme with heavy green to pink shifting shimmer. I love this one! The colour is gorgeous, the shift is fantastic and the formula is awesome. I used two coats for my swatch.

Gazing Upwards is a light blue creme with heavy gold shimmer. This is another really pretty colour and has a great formula. I used three coats, however you can get away with two.

LE43 is A medium dusty pink with silver holo glitter, gold to green shifting shimmer and a small amount of iridescent flakes. As this polish was limited edition it's no longer available but I still wanted to include it (it is part of swatching all of the polishes I purchased last year right?). I'm not personally fan of the colour of this one. The formula is easy to work with. My swatch shows three coats.

Melt Down is a bright pink/orange with heavy gold shimmer. I was a little on the fence about this one initial but I like it! The colour is nice and the formula is great. I used three coats for my swatch.

Sweet Jumps is a light brown holo with gold/bronze flakies, and turquoise, copper and fuchsia glitters. This is easy to use and opaque in three coats. Unfortunately when I wore this polish the sun made no appearance (even though the forecast told me there was meant to be sun all day) so I do apologise for the flash shot. I need to find some decent indoor lighting for holographic polishes. If you have any recommendations please let me know. Winter is coming to Melbourne which means no sunshine for me.

I have now officially swatched all of the Emily de Molly's that I purchased last year. Woohoo! Now I can swatch some of the new ones I have purchased this year. Seriously, so many pretties and so little time!
All of these polishes (with the exception of LE43) are available from Emily de Molly.
