NOTD - Leighton Denny Your Planet Or Mine

I have been lemming onn this polish for months. Hard. So hard I might have followed other lemmings off a cliff to get my paws on it.
On the one hand the colour is as divine as I expected, you can see in this picture that the most prominent colour is a deep, shimmer laden green.



Oh and did I mention this is a duochrome? Probably why I was so desperate to get it! Here you can see if I tilt my hand slightly the purple becomes obvious. Leighton himself describes this colour as a 'petrol on water' effect, and I can totally see what he means, I remember being fascinated by petrol on puddles when I was a child, seeing the mesmorising mix of colours. Maybe that is why I lust duochromes so much!



This photo shows the duotones melding into one another on a few of my nails. Pretty!



Whilst I did adore this polish, application was a nightmare! Maybe I am spoilt by OPI wide brushes that thinner ones are harder for me now! It took up to 4 coats on some nails to get the coverage and finish I wanted, but once on wear was minimal, I have had this on for 10 days now, never has a polish captured my heart so much that I am willing to add an extra 2 coats to cover up sign of wear!

Your Planet or Mine is part of the Atmospheric Autumn/Winter 2011 range and available to buy from Leighton Denny, QVC and amazon

weigh in.....4th week

Ah well, being a woman sometimes sucks! Monday I was attacked by some biscuits in my need to sate my pmt cravings. Not the end of the world and clawed back the points, but that and the water retention that seems to happen since passing 30 have meant a gain.

Only half a pound, nowt too sad. 16st 0.5lb today. Next week I WILL get into the 15's!

In the meantime, stay out of my way. This bitch bites....

Normal service will be resumed in 5 days!
