Hello Lovelies! Happy Caturday! I actually had a fairly lazy day today, hence the late post. Since it's the weekend, I decided not to rush and just unwind a bit. I've been rushing around so much the past few weeks that I needed some unwinding.
Today's post is special in 2 ways. 1, It's an unreleased polish that is truly beautiful and 2, It was chosen by my girl Gini from Sassy Paints. It's her birthday, and since I am broke as all hell I decided to honor her the only way I know how - with polish. I asked Gini to choose from a few options yesterday - essentially she chose her own Birthday post mani!
I first met Gini way back when I started my second 31 Day Challenge. Gini was one of the first bloggers to join in, and I gotta tell ya, the girl did some epic manicures. I really got to know Gini when I had come across some polishes that she just couldn't find. I grabbed them up and sent them off to her. Eventually we started talking more and more and I discovered the wonderful woman the she truly is. She makes me laugh so hard that I've literally almost peed myself, she calms me down when I'm pissed off, and when I have a gripe, she's right there with me. I adore this woman and even though we have never met IRL, I consider her one of my closest friends. I don't let very many people into my inner circle, but with Gini it was easy. I truly adore her and value her friendship like no other.
So Happy Birthday Gini! I hope your day was filled with awesomeness and not smelly dog, laundry, or illness. Love you girl! ;)
FYI, Gini is having an awesome Birthaversary giveaway! You can click here to go right to her blog and enter.
The polish that Miss Gini picked out for today is Love, Angeline Angel Wings. This polish is so much more beautiful that I can even say. It's a beautiful almost cream colored base loaded with golden shimmer that creates an almost duochrome effect. Mixed into that killer base are golden hexes.
This is 3 coats of Angel Wings, with top coat:
Soooooo gorgeous! I wish my pics did this girl justice, but my camera was just flipping out over the light reflecting off the shimmer. In person, you can really see the shift from that lovely cream/ivory color to a vivid, but soft golden hue. It truly is remarkable!
Angel Wings' formula is excellent. I had no issues whatsoever. Application was perfection with no dragging, balding, or pesky streaks. The glitter dispersed nicely and evenly with no clumping, Dry time is incredibly fast and wear is amazing with zero signs of wear at around 36 hours. Angel Wings does not dry textured, but since the base is a shimmery metallic type, it will show the outline of some of the glitters in previous coats. Not bothersome to me at all! This girl is also pretty sheer - I have some slight VNL at 3 coats, but only at the right angle. When the gold shimmer takes over, you can't see any VNL. Not that I would care, since this polish is so gorgeous that I'd deal with a ton of VNL!
Love, Angeline has quickly climbed up the ladder into my fave brands. Natosha comes up with the most amazing color combos and her formula is always spot on. In fact, I love LA so much that I have a literal ton of Natosha's polish waiting to be shown off. I went a little nuts with in her shop a while back. :)
You can find Love, Angeline polishes at Love, Angeline on Big Cartel. Full size polishes will run you $8 each, Collection Sets are $21. The Smoke and Mirrors Collection is now available for pre-order, so head on over before they sell out! You really don't miss want to pass those up. Also take a peek at Light Show, Strawberry Fields, Tea'-lite and Enchanted Love. Epic!
I'm not sure when Natosha will be releasing Angel Wings, but you can follow Love, Angeline on Facebook and Instagram for new release updates, sales info, and swatches.
What do you think of Angel Wings? Do you dig gold polish?
I'll be back on Monday with some more Indie awesomeness. Taking Sunday off this week since I am still just beat.
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
-Kimber
