Hi guys, Wow what a busy week I have had but I have managed to find time to swatch and do my Indie Brand of the Week. This week features the UK's newest 5 free, cruelty free brand Luna Loves... created by the lovely Elaine. The brand I believe is named after her cat Luna (I hope I'm right and Luna likes this post!) Luna Loves...was only launched a couple of weeks ago and included The Australia Collection, Tokyo Collection and The Cats Duo and there are some must have holos! I was a bit late in getting my order in so there was a lot that was sold out but I did manage to nab 2 I had my eye on. This stunning pink is called Byron Bay Sights, its has the most gorgeous gold holo in it and it glows in UV lights. This pink is so easy to wear. This swatch picture shows with (top pic) and without (bottom pic) flash and all pictures were taken in my light box. Well who knew I would be getting a blue? Melborne Nights is an amazing twinkly holo blue, now I love blue poli...
