Good morning lovelies! Happy Caturday! Charlie has some things to say today, so make sure to click to read more or you'll miss her Caturday message!
Since my FB page (like KLK HERE) in reality has over 100 likes (if pages like you it doesnt count, plus my counter seems to only update when it feels like it), the giveaway will start Monday. Gini and I have narrowed down the prizes, and they are all being shipped. Unfortunately, being the holiday season, shipping takes a bit so I will be using my personal bottles as well as links to some blogger swatches until they are all here.
Prizes:
A-England- She Walks In Beauty
A-England- And The Moonbeams
Polish TBH - Tiny Dancer
Polish TBH - Midnight
Twenty Seven Polish - Evil Stepsisters (conveniently swatched in this post!)
Twenty Seven Polish - Fake ID
Twenty Seven Polish - Change Is Good
All are full sized bottles. I'll be posting the giveaway on Monday, probably in the evening.
And now, the polish!
It's no secret that Twenty Seven Polish has become one of my fave Indie Brands. And with good reason. Lisa makes some gorgeous polish, complete with stellar application and affordable pricing. Today's stunner is Evil Stepsisters, a mix of Orange, Green and Purple Shard Glitter, 2 different shades of purple Hex glitter, and the occasional black star in a pink to green duochrome shimmer base. This polish is incredible. The duochrome shift is gorgeous, and combined with the glitters? Wow. Can you tell I'm in love? My swatches do not show the black stars, since they weren't obvious against my base color, but they are in there! Make sure you click to see more - you want to see the duochrome, right?
All photos are a single coat of Evil Stepsisters over Illamasqua Baptiste (Pic heavy to show off the colors!):
Wow. Just wow. I love a good duochrome, but duochrome and awesome glitter? *swoon*!!! I love this over a dark base, but this looks awesome over lighter colors as well - I tried it over a bright Orange from Essie and wow! I used kept the black stars over the orange and this polish looked just as stunning, yet entirely different. So versatile as well as gorgeous. Lisa has a real stunner on her hands here.
Formula:
Dreamy! Evil Stepsisters has the signature Indie thickness, while still being easy to use. No thickening during use, no clumpy glitters, and the glitter did not settle in the bottle.
Application:
Easy Peasy! Evil stepsisters was smooth and silky for a glitter. No fishing for glitters here, The brush dispersed just the right amount of glitter with each stroke. This girl isn't as textured as alot of Indie glitters, but I did use a coat of Gelous to make sure it was nice and smooth -especially with shard glitters. Dry time was impressive - this was dry to the touch before I even applied the gelous!
Overall? LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! For me, this is a must have, and I know I will need a full sized bottle sooner rather than later. Lucky for you, you can win this baby starting Monday!

And now....
You all know that I spend an exorbitant amount of time at my polish table in my kitchen. If you follow me on twitter, you may have seen the pics of "the invaders" a few days ago. It seems my polish table is popular with small creatures. :)
Since it's a bit chilly at the polish table (it's in front of a large set of sliding glass doors), I keep my fluffy robe handy in the evenings. Charlie loves my robe - drooling and kneading on it often. That is, when she's not using it for a kitteh bed.
Charlie: Mom? That blue thing is fluffeh! I lay on it?
Me: Charlie, I need that. It's cold!
Charlie: Look! An alien!!! Up there!!!!
Me: That's the desklamp.
Charlie: Oh..that not work? Okay....Um...here! I lick your knee!!!
Charlie: It's so fluffy!!! I lay here nao!
Me: You are silly kitteh. Now I smell like kitteh breath.
Charlie: *YAWN* I so vewy tired. I nap here, k? This my fluffy. I claim it in the name of nap time.
Me: Oooookay. I guess you win. But it's cold, and I may freeze to death and then no more scratches for you!
And with that, I am off to tend to this damned broken corner. *sighs*
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
