NOTD Hits - Poseidon

Special polish alert! And special it certainly is! I got this with my recent Llarowe order and being a huge holo fan I whipped off what was on my nails and put this stunner on!

This is the beautiful pale blue Poseidon holo polish in artificial light which will be coming in handy since the darker days are now here in the UK!


In day light the holo is more subtle but much much more pizazz than my 'high street' holo's!


I could sit and look at this all day, and er night, which I did here and took pictures in my bedside lamp light as I just couldn't get enough of it!


See? Amazing!



I also have this in a gorgeous deep green which I am going to try next!


This is just a fun photo, I decided to sort out my ever growing stash and this was the result of emptying all of my boxes! Believe it or not it has grown since and I am due another delivery soon. My love knows no bounds!


Poseidon is still available here http://shop.llarowe.com/collections/hits/products/poseidon and as it is a Brazilian brand they are hard to get in the UK but delivery from Llarowe is not hugely expensive but I defy you to buy just one polish! Prices are very reasonable once converted as well. 

I could purchase the whole lot from there if I could.......

Ooh sorry, daydreaming there! If you love holo's and polishes that are not easily found in shops then check out Llarowe, you won't regret it!

NOTD Smitten Polish - You're Turning Violet, Violet

Since I got my first Indie polish a few weeks back I had a little splurge and thanks to a great website (more on that later) and a blog sale I have no amassed quite the collection!

This beauty is so lovely that at a pamper evening last night two of my friends were gutted I hadn't taken this along after seeing it on my nails!



This is a beautiful polish, a violet base with lovely micro holo glitter which my camera didn't pick up and the most gorgeous hex glitter that looks blue in some light and purple in others. 


I was fully expecting to need undies for this (a base of a similar colour) but was surprised to find this was a really dense colour and two coats was all I needed!


This was a greedy polish though and sucked up two coats of topcoat and still felt bumpy, but I love it so much that I don't care!


This is it in natural light, hard to come by now it is officially winter in the UK!


This is in artificial light and it really pops out the blue hex glitter!


Macro shot, yummy!


I purchased this from http://shop.llarowe.com/ and had to wait for delivery from the US, but boy it was worth it! Llarowe stock so many indie polishes and branded polishes we struggle to get here in the UK and prices are pretty reasonable once you convert it to GBP. 

I was so pleased with my order that I promptly placed another and will purchase again for sure! Some indie releases sell out really quickly but I managed to get lots and am due lots more!

Addict? Yes, I am not officially obsessed with indie and hard to find polishes so expect lots more to come!
