*These products are Cruelty Free 

GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
CONGRATS An S.



I'm really excited tonight because I have a new Doctor Who Collection to show you! This is Part 1 of I'm not sure how many parts Above the Curve will be releasing. For now we have 4 Who-Inspired polishes!

Launching Friday, February 21, 2014

GIVEAWAY AT THE END!

Above the Curve
Doctor Who Collection Part 1



L ro R: Donna, Relative Dimensions, Slitheen and The Silence

Enter to WIN THESE FOUR POLISHES in the Rafflecopter Widget at the end!


Continued after the jump...




All 4 of these polishes have the same formula and application. Creamy, smooth and opaque in 2 coats. No issues to report at all. Excellent. I used 2 coats and no top coat for all 4 polishes in all photos.

Donna is, of course, inspired by Donna Noble (Catherine Tate), who was a companion to the Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) and this is basically the color of her hair. I can relate. LOL! Lovely bright orange holo shimmer.

Relative Dimensions is a really pretty purple holo. This one leans more toward the blue side of purple in artificial lighting and more toward the red-violet side of purple (warmer) in indirect lighting and in the sun. It's, I guess you could say, multi-dimensional! *grin* The shimmer/flash is a warm violet purple and you can see it flashing at you in the artificial light photos but in natural lighting, it takes center stage.

Slitheen is, of course, inspired by The Slitheen, an extra-terrestrial race of "bad guys" who are adversaries to The Doctor. They're green and they, um...are flatulent. LOL! They squeeze their alien bodies into "human suits" and during the gas exchange, well you get the rest. It's a great forest green holo with a great light glowy green shimmer/flash.

The Silence is quite unusual and unique in my collection. It's a near-black dark blue base with holo pigment and micro-flakes and a brilliant duo-chrome flash that shifts from purple to blue.

I can just tell you right up front I love them all. There's just the right amount of holo in them and the color-saturation is marvelous. Favorite? I guess if I had to pick just one it would be Donna. Or The Silence. I can't wait to see what they come up with next for Who-inspired polishes!
