Elevation Polish: Ridnitsohkka

I could have also called this post "The evolution of a mani", because that is truly what this is.

While contemplating if you should change colors, I decided to try out something. Now, you have to know that I hardly ever do nail art of any kind (the first post of the blog was my first and only attempt so far). Boring? maybe... Anyways, this time I decided to be adventurous and try some sort of half-moon mani... but, it turned out to be something else.

The end result? My half-moons are too big, is there even a name for this? But, despite the failed half-moon, I really like how it turned out, or maybe it is just that I LOVE (yes, capital letters) this color. It is a cool gray with hints of green creme from Elevation Polish. Lulu is coming up with awesome stuff and you need to check it out at her blog. She is also one of the sweetest nail polish sellers out there. I could go on and on about how awesome Lulu and her collection are but I will let you discover it by yourself. In the mean time, I will keep admiring my "failed" nail art. Have a great weekend!

This is what I used for the mani (under artificial lighting):

Elevation Polish: Owen

Today I want to show you one of the bottles I ordered recently. 

Elevation Polish just opened their Etsy store last Thursday, I place my order right then and I got my lovely package on Monday. 

Lulu is the creative master mind behind Elevation Polish and you can see her blog here:

Today I want to show you: Owen, the description says that it is an iridescent

shimmering blue that shift to green then shifts to blue with green shimmer. I can summarize the description in one word -> awesomeness. I have been playing with my fingers all day because everytime you switch positions you can see how the color changes. It also looks lovely under the sunlight. Below you can see pictures on different kinds of lighting.

I also swatched it quickly on a wheel to see how it would look with undies. The left swatch is a coat of Owen over a coat of Essie's Bobbing for Baubles and the right swatch is a coat of Owen over WnW Black Creme.

Lulu will reopen her etsy shop on April 7th. Hopefully I will be able to show you a couple more colors of the wonderful collection before then. But I highly encourage you to stalk the shop on that day.
