My New Fave Red: A-England Perceval
I few weeks ago I was so moved (yes, moved) by a beautiful A-England Perceval swatch by The Polish Owl…that I ordered it the very same day! Currently I’m swatching the OPI Skyfall Collection; but when this beauty came in the mail I had to switch gears! Take a look at this polish. It’s like shimmery red velvet in a bottle!
What amazes me most about Adina’s polishes is the formula. Now that I have several A-Englands, across the board the formula is a bit thicker than most. But it doesn’t effect application. It just goes wherever you put it. No flooding or streaking. Just creamy awesomeness. I easily could have gotten away with one coat (but my OCD forced me to do two!) he he! And no cleanup. None!
The Polish Owl said that Perceval glows and she’s right. It has almost a slight pink shimmer to it. I’m usually not a big fan of metallics, but this is seriously my new favorite red. It’s perfect for the holidays.
You can buy A-England polishes directly from the A-England Website for 9 GBP each and free worldwide shipping.

Beautiful red. I must have it!
Yes. You must! (I’m an enabler.)
Oh. My. God! What a gorgeous shade! It catches the light so beautiful and is a great classic colour. I think I need a red like this! Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks! It is even more gorgeous in person. My camera didn’t quite know what to do!
Oh, yes… Perceval is the most beautiful red of them all! I died when I bought it!
LOL. I died a little too when I opened the package! :0
This is gorgeous! It kind of reminds me of Knees Up from Butter London… I may swatch that for you tomorrow! ♥ Lovely pictures as always, I’m so jealous of your perfect nails.
Thanks, Mary. You are so sweet. I would love to see your Knees Up! [snicker...I read thru my comment again and realized to a non-polish addict that doesn't sound so good.] Let me know if you post it so I can be on the lookout for it.
I am SO SO happy me and my swatch of Perceval moved you.
Thank you for the mention its the best news I have had all week!
I absolutely LOVE your post :)
I’m happy that you moved me too! Keep up the great work! :)
It almost looks like one of those Big satiny christmas ribbons. Very pretty.
That’s a perfect description. It’s really a unique polish. Have you seen the latest holiday red limited edition Chanel though? Total awesomeness too.
