Pine green shimmer
Ah PostQuam, you and your slightly odd polish names, Intense Grass - really?! Aside from the unintended drug reference, what on earth is intense grass? It's certainly not this colour which is much more pine forest than grass!
Intense Grass is a deep pine green creme with fine green shimmer running through. It's definitely not a secret-shimmer and in the sunlight looks very pretty.
Application was ok, bit on the gloopy side and swatches are 2 coats with no top coat.

PostQuam - Purple
Plum creme
You can tell it's feeling autumnal here in the UK, my second plum polish in a row!
This one from Spanish brand, PostQuam. The polishes are pretty good but I really don't like the labels, the shiny foil printing makes them look cheap.
But onto the polish itself, this one is helpfully called Purple, although to me it's more of a plum, leaning pink rather than blue. Slightly darker than yesterdays SuperDry but also super shiny.
Swatches are 2 coats, no top coat. Unfortunately this one was a bit gloopy to apply but seems to have evened out in the pics.

PostQuam - Intense Sky
Blue with secret shimmer
Intense Sky is a mid to dark blue creme with a brighter blue secret shimmer. The shimmer is just strong enough to be visible on the nail which is always a good thing.
Application was ok - I did find the brush pretty tricky. Swatches are 2 coats, no top coat but this could probably be a one coat wonder if you were careful.
Despite the slight application issues I really like this, the shade and shimmer combination are unusual and unique in my collection. And I was convinced it would stain and I'd end up with smurf fingers but it removed like a dream!
Another new brand to the blog, PostQuam, who as far as I can work out are a professional brand from Spain. Most of the range is skincare, treatments and supplements but they also have a cosmetics line. I picked up four polishes from a private sale site - unfortunately I don't think this brand is available in the UK.
Anyone spotted PostQuam around Europe?
