Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend: Part 2 of 8


Chainmail Charm is another Diamond Cosmetics superstar. At two coats, the dark grey holo sparkles deliciously. This is a must buy.

I think that I’ve actually bought all the non-cremes in the Diamond Cosmetics line. It’s fairly easy to spot what I’d consider the older formula colors as they tend to be on the frosty side. Such is the case with Hi Ho Silver and Winterberry. Hi Ho Silver is a greyed out lilac and Winterberry is a coral brick. Nice colors, but they tend to be streaky. Shown is three coats.

Glitter Opal, which I believe is a discontinued color, is a sparse multi-colored glitter better used as a top coat rather than solo. It’ll add demure sparkle to an under-the-weather color, but isn’t too unusual. I’ve shown two coats over Winterberry.

While I highly recommend Chainmail Charm, I don’t think the rest of them are necessary. There are better formulas for both the Hi Ho Silver and Winterberry colors that won’t be as frosty and show the brushstrokes as much.

    I wish Diamond would bring Chainmail Charm back :( Their website still says that it’s “unavailable do to color formulation issues.” One day, I’ll get that gray holo!!
