Silly Bee's Chickadees By A Lady Collection

*The following products were provided to me in exchange for my honest review.

I have for you today a lovely new collection by Silly Bee's Chickadees. This collection is called By A Lady and is inspired by the author, Jane Austen. This collection features three polishes that represent Austen's heroines in Sense & Sensibility, Emma, and Pride & Prejudice. These polishes are made to have a satin/matte finish, but wear beautifully with a top coat too.

Before we start, let me just say, AMAZING inspiration for a nail polish collection. I'm very excited about this!

Sass & Sensibility
Sass & Sensibility with top coat
Sass & Sensibility is a muted violet crelly with sparse micro holographic glitter.

Emmalicious

Emmalicious is a muted cornflower blue crelly with sparse micro holographic glitter.

Pride & Preciousness
Pride & Preciousness with top coat
Pride & Preciousness is a muted rose crelly with sparse micro holographic glitter.

Color: This collection color wise is perfection. When I think of Jane Austen and this time period these are exactly the colors I imagine. I love the muted softness of these shades. They're eye catching colors, but they're feminine and dainty at the same time. The added sparkle blends in these colors beautifully and makes these colors come alive.

Formula: Excellent formula. These were buttery and a dream to apply. I used 2 coats on each, and did not experience any issues. I like the satin finish of these, but I'm a gloss girl, so I prefer them with top coat.

Price: The full size bottles of the By A Lady collection are $10.00 each. You can also buy a mini trio set for $15.00. This collection can be purchased on Silly Bee's Chickadees etsy site.

Overall: I absolutely adore this collection. This is one of those collections that really blew me away. These are very simple colors, but they're done just perfectly. The colors reflect the inspiration, are well thought out, and executed well. I'm so pleased! By A Lady collection makes me smile!

My Rating: 5 out of 5 Paint Splatters
Happy Tuesday!
