Whimsical Ideas by Pam's Once Upon A Time

My first whimsy! This is Once Upon A Time from her Halloween collection. How could I say no to this one when my fav 2 colors are involved?! In addition, I had Essie Navigate Her and Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac sitting right in front of my when this cutie came in, so I couldn't resist. Just a quick pic. It's blurry but its so pretty! And I figured I'd write up a quick post because Whimsical Ideas By Pam shared it on their page! (Thanks again Pam!!) So it must not be too shabby. This polish is a dream to apply and to wear. Here it is!

Half-Vintage Nail Makeup

Today I bring to you the reason I decided to go ahead and start a blog. This polish! It's Sally Hansen's Magical Nail Makeup in Mystical Mandarin. Whew, long name. It is my oldest polish at a whopping 10 years (thus, half-vintage). It's also my favorite polish. But Today I bring it to you in a "farewell" post. I've decided to part with my baby and swap it for Layla Hologram in Flash Black. I hope it's worth it! It sure looks worth it. So, one last time, here is my baby mandarin, which is actually a medium pink linear holo.

This polish was the easiest polish to photograph ever. Even in the blurriest of all the photos, it still looks amazing. It's so photogenic! :) I love you baby. Go have fun at the Polish Monster's house!

Elevation Polish "Avalanche"

So the first swatches of Indie Intro Week and also my blogging career are of Elevation Polish's "Avalanche" Described on their website as "10 different types of holographic glitter. Big and small blended together. large diamond, large hex, medium hex, small hex, holographic microglitters." So pretty much, super holographia! I love all things holographic and if it just so happens to be glitter in nail polish, then so be it. Here is a bottle shop from their site.

Gorgeous, right? Right. Here are my swatches, they are over Zoya Wednesday of the Beach Collection. Accent nail base color is Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac. These are 2 coats of Avalanche. Don't mind my ugly cuticles and chipped color. This was just me messing around! :) Also, I wasn't able to fully capture the holographicness of this polish but let me assure you, it is blinding.

Ooo, artsy.

Daisy patches have popped up in the lawn, I love them!

And finally, we have a macro of my thumb nail,

So holographic!

This concludes my first swatching. Thanks for reading!
