Ozotic's discontinued! & duochrome 744

Sad news out today from Picture Polish. Ozotic discontinuing a huge part of their line.  Not just one or two polishes, nope, the whole 500 series!! Which ones are in the 500 series you ask?  Well... all the Multi-chromes, all the Holographics, all the Mish Mash and all the Elytra's.  Discontinued. Done. Dead!  

If you want to snap up some bargains, get over to Picture Polish now and grab a bottle of the discontinued ones for just $11AUD.   Picture Polish said on Facebook that they hear Ozotic has something new on the horizon.  All I can say Ozotic, is it better be pretty bloody awesome for you to stop making the 500 series.  The 500 series of polishes are so loved and seem to sell so well, I really can't understand why they would discontinue them.

They are continuing to make the 600 and 700 series.  The 600 are the high impact holographics, or the large particle holos (which are gorgeous in their own right). The 700 series are the duochromes.  And it is another one of those that I have for you today.

This is Ozotic 744, a cornflower blue and purple duochrome.  First up is two coats of 744 layered over black.

Over black you see a pretty dusty lavender purple.

There is a definite dusty blue colour shift.

Next I layered it over white.  Over white the purple shimmer is still very definitely there, but you see a lot more of the cornflower blue shade. Like!

It doesn't look like a totally different polish over white, but it certainly brings out some of the other shades in the polish a lot more.  I think I prefer this polish over white rather than over black because you seem to see more colour shift over white! That seems the total reverse that what we usually see.

Finally, I just wore two coats of 744 on it's own.  I said it on Monday with Ozotic 730, and I'll say it again now.  I do really love that you don't have to layer these duo-chromes over black to bring out the colour shift.  Sometimes I just don't like that black dirty look under the nail, that layering over black can make.

So this is another win in the duochrome department. It's a really pretty combo of colours.  Purple and blue are always perfect together, but I love that this is light cornflower blue and a lavender purple.

So people, we may not have shown these Ozotic duochromes much love in the past, but soon, these will be some of the only Ozotics that we can show love too. 

I wonder if this means that there will be no more Chemistry or B Range 500 series too?

This polish was provided to me for review.
