Formula & Application notes:
Coniferae has a muddy green-ish jelly base with a pink/reddish-gold multichrome overlay. It contains iridescent red-green flakies and scattered holographic particles. You can see these particularly in the close ups and the bottle shots.

Smooth and opaque, this is 2 coats with top coat. Went on easily and even coverage of all the inclusions as you can see from the images.

The Verdict:
I love dark shades especially at this time of year, and this one has lots of personality. There’s a delightful green shimmer running through it, which you can really see in certain lights – it is pretty sneaky in photographs though, but I did my best to capture it.

An amazing and slightly vampy shade that can be worn anytime, but seems particularly perfect for Fall/Autumn or Winter. I wore it most of the week and convinced myself it made my hands feel that little bit warmer in the cold weather haha. True story 😉
