Emily de Molly July 2018 Releases - Swatches & Review



One of my favourite times of the months is when there are new releases from Emily de Molly.  I always love EdM's new releases (well all of their polishes really).  They are always so pretty and you know the formulas are going to be fantastic.  July is no exception.  Now before I start babbling, let's just jump straight into the swatches and review.  Heads up - this post is quite picture heavy!


Dormant Fractures is a dark purple holo with a copper magnetic effect.  I love this one!  Both before and after the magnet.  The colour is gorgeous and the formula is amazing - it's close to a one coater.  I used two coats for my swatch.

Evening Mist is a pale taupe grey with strong turquoise blue shimmer.  I love this one too!  I think the colour and the shimmer are gorgeous and the formula is great.  I used two coats for my swatch.

Made Of Emotion is a red based purple with blue to purple shifting shimmer.  It will come as no surprise that I absolutely love this one as well!  It's absolutely stunning.  I also really like how different it looks in different lighting.  The formula is easy to use, however I did find it a little see through at the tips so I used three coats for my swatch.

More Or Less is a blue (warm) to olive green (cold) thermal with gold shimmer and silver holographic micro glitters.  Another great thermal.  I quite like both colours and they transition well.  The formula is great and it is opaque in two coats.

Perfect Moments is a pale purple (warm) to darker purple (cold) thermal with copper shimmer.  Love this one!  I feel like I am saying that with all of the polishes from this release.  Anyway, this one transitions really well between the shades (and both shades are gorgeous) and the formula is fantastic.  My swatch shows two coats.

Rise Above The Flames is a dark copper that shifts to dark purple at extreme angles, with gold holographic micro glitters.  This one isn't really my sort of shade but I imagine that there will be lots of you guys that will love it.  The formula is awesome and is opaque in two coats.

The Grey Silence is a medium grey with copper shimmer, silver holographic micro glitters and iridescent flakes.  This is another favourite of mine.  I really like the colour and of course love the flakies.  The formula is great and easy to use.  I did find it a little sheer at the tips after two coats (although I am sure that most people would stop at two coats).  My swatch shows three coats.

Time Will Tell is a light blue crelly with copper shimmer and flakes and silver holographic micro glitters.  This polish is limited to one large batch.  It is such a pretty colour.  I really like the added copper shimmer and flakes.  The formula is great and is opaque in two coats.

If you can't tell already then I am a huge fan of this month's release from Emily de Molly.  There are soooooo many gorgeous polishes and the formulas are all fantastic.  My personal favourites (and yes I am aware I am about to list the bulk of this release but I really do love them!) are Dormant Fractures, Evening Mist, Made Of Emotion, Perfect Moments and The Grey Silence.

The July releases will be available on Tuesday 10th July at 10am AEST from Emily de Molly's Australian site and on Monday 9th July at 8pm EDT on the international site.
