Happy weekend, ladies. I am so happy that the week is finally over.
To celebrate, I have a complete impulse buy that I blame entirely on Tara. The girl knows what I likes and knows she knows. So after she tagged me in her post of Toubkal, I broke down and bought it. I am nothing if not a sucker for personalized marketing. American through and through.
Anyways, for my first Elevation Polish, I am mightily impressed. While I'm not in love with the ridged bottle top, this polish applied beautifully. Often times flakie crellies have major settling issues on the nail, but I was really pleased that the gold flakie shimmer did show up once dried. The bloody, cranberry base is so juicy and vampy, I could wear this polish all winter.
This is three coats.

Sorry for the tip wear. I sometimes have issues with my top coat doing this so please note that this mani was photographed the morning after I applied it so any wear is probably the cause of bad quick dry chemistry.
So what do you ladies think: is this a run of the mill red or an indie worth the binge?

Yep, perfect for you. :)
ReplyDeleteAw, yay! You finally got it! This really is a gorgeous polish. I love the bit of berry in this deep, gorgeous red, and the flakie shimmer is just beautiful. Great call, Tara!
ReplyDeleteI did! I went on a total indie spree last month (of which you also made out well from ;) and this was one of the goods. Love it!
