Emerald Illusion

Colors by Llarowe, Nail Polish

Hey, everyone! How was your weekend? Mine had its ups and downs. Saturday night I had a game night planned with friends. I ended up with one of the worst migraines I’ve had in some time. I mean, there are no good migraines, but this one was a doozy. I ended up cancelling game night. My migraine thankfully disappeared by Sunday morning. We got a tree and ended up decorating for most of the day.

So, the weekend’s polish….I got it a little while ago and I figured now was the perfect time to showcase it. Here is Emerald Illusion by Colors by Llarowe–

This shifty beauty goes from emerald to teal to navy. It gives off a really beautiful glow.

Emerald Illusion has a nice, smooth formula and is opaque in 2 coats.

Overall, an absolute stunner of a polish! If you love green, you need to search this baby out. It was a polish of the month in Llarowe’s facebook group- CbL Addicts Are Us. Llarowe has a shit ton of gorgeous polishes. I don’t own many, because I was devoted to other brands….if you’re into indies, you’ll understand what I mean. There are so many great brands out there and only so few dollars in your pocket. When LeAnn puts out something super special, like this one, I try to snatch it up. Two thumbs up from me!

Flashback Friday Christmas!

Flashback Friday, Gothic Gala Lacquers, Nail Art, Nail Polish, Rhinestones and Studs

Hi, everyone! Happy Friday! Tonight we’re taking the nugget on a holiday train ride. We’ve been going for the past 5 or 6 years and has become a staple in our holiday traditions. It’s good family fun! Saturday night is Game Night at our house. It’s been a long time since I’ve had one and it’ll be good to catch up with friends.

So, this Flashback Friday is from about 4 or 5 years ago. It was right after I started swatching for Gothic Gala Lacquers. She had a really lovely Christmas set including the two polishes I used in this mani.

Please forgive the terrible picture quality. Blue Christmas is a wonderfully squishy blue jelly with blue and silver glitters. Silver Bells is a typical silver polish, but very well done. Gothic Gala pumped out sophisticated polishes like no one’s business. This is one of the very first Christmas nail arts I had ever done.
