Elevation Polish - Gobi

Press Sample 
*This product is Cruelty Free 



Happy Friday!

Today I have one of the new Elevation Polishes for the June re-stock to show you from the upcoming Mongolia Collection - Gobi! (*Available in the JUNE 2013 re-stock*)


Elevation Polish Gobi - The Mongolia Collection June 2013



Gobi is part of the upcoming Mongolia Collection and it's a color-shifting holographic sand color. The formula is smooth and easy and application was a dream. I used two coats of this one and one light coat of Poshe top coat for the photos. The Gobi Desert in Mongolia has nothing on this baby.

Way too many photos after the jump...

Kiko 399 Silky Taupe


Happy Saturday!

I just realized that I fell so hard for Kiko 400 Steel Grey holo that I never got around to showing you the other Kiko holos! So this morning I have the taupe one to show you.

Kiko #399 Silky Taupe Holo is just that, a light taupe/sand colored strong linear holographic polish. The photos speak for themselves really. Formula and application were a dream. No issues to report at all! Two coats for full opacity and no top coat for the photos. I didn't use a base at all...not even a regular base coat.

What do you think of this one?

Unfortunately, I don't know of anywhere to get these in the US. I have friends in the UK and France who get them for me. Thank goodness!!! If you're lucky enough to be in France or Italy, you can purchase them in-store. It's definitely worth finding someone to get them for you, in my opinion. There are 4 of the holos and I love them all!

W.I.C. By Herome - Kingston #73 - Swatches and Review

I bought W.I.C by Herome - Kingston (#73)  from a blog sale to benefit the ASPCA. I really had no idea what it would look like, but it's a brand I'd not only never tried, I'd never HEARD of it! When I finally got around to swatching it, I was IN LOVE. I immediately googled to learn everything about them that I could. And then I proceeded to try ordering more. Still don't really know where that stands. The website is in Dutch and I made it to the "pay" part and couldn't get redirected to Paypal from there. I've since emailed them and am hoping to have more of thee beauties to show you in the future. I do know they ship to the US for a flat 15 charge. But I have a feeling, if this polish is any indication, it's worth it.

But for now...Kingston. It's a sandy/gold/tan linear holo with a formula that's to die for. It's actually a one-coater and flowed "like butta!"

I don't really have ordering information for you or where it's available except that because it's based in The Netherlands, I'm assuming it's easily accessible there. Once I have information, I'll be sure to share...with as many other W.I.C. swatches as I can. The bottles are 0.2 fl. oz.

Do you love it? Have it? Have any ordering or availability information to share?
