I bought A England Whispering Waves as soon as it was launched.

It’s a duochromatic turquoise holographic polish – what could be better?

It paints on perfectly. All the A England nail polishes I’ve ever tried have a perfect application.

It dries very quickly and a little matte too.

It was almost a one-coater, and probably would be for short nails. I just had a tiny bit of visible nail line peeking through at me, so used two coats for a better finish. This would probably stamp very well because of its well-pigmented formula.

It has a slight duochrome / multichrome to it, ranging from a darker blue, through pink, to gold and then to a more greeny/gold colour. But that’s not hugely evident on the nail.

There isn’t much holograph with this either. I thought there would be more than there is, so I was a tiny bit disappointed. But it is still a beautiful polish – a perfect formula, and a stunning colour. I’m keen to see what it looks like in sunlight.
