Hello Lovelies! Happy Caturday! I wish that Charlie would hold still so I could let her say hello, but she is busy stalking a fly. She's very focused and determined.

Things have been relatively quiet the past 2 days, which is a welcome change! My niece is doing well, and the baby is still doing great as well. Since the placenta is partially detached she probably will not carry all the way to 40 weeks, but she's almost at 34, and should make it to at least 37. I'm so happy and relieved that her and baby are okay - I cannot tell you how panicked and worried I've been since her accident.

In polish news, I managed to find some of the new Sally Hansen Triple Shine polishes last night, and hubby came home later bearing the 2 that I really wanted. What a guy! I can't wait to try them out. I'm planning on jumping back into Try It On Tuesday's, so hopefully I'll have one of those to share this Tuesday.

Today I have my very favorite Halloween polish from this year. Love, Angeline is one of my very fave Indie Brands, and Natosha's Halloween polishes (The Spellbound Collection) are just mind boggling. When I first saw them, I very much had to have I Put A Spell On You, and was overjoyed and eternally grateful when Natosha included it in my PR package! I'm always over the moon to swatch for her, but also very grateful since her polishes are so amazing, and let's face it - there are better bloggers out there.

I Put A Spell On You (hereafter IPASOY because I'm lazy) is a crazy mix of Black and Orange holo glitters in a clear base.  I love how this polish looks layered, but since I'm a rebel, I decided to show it all on her lonesome.

This is 3 coats of IPASOY topped with NPB Glitter Food and HK Girl Top Coat. I have intentionally photographed this polish with some blur on a couple nails to show the holo.

O.O!! Orange is not a color that I lean toward at all, but this bright, glowy, holo orange glitter makes me giddy. And ya know, who doesn't love black glitter? This is the perfect Halloween polish - bright, sparkly, and fun without being too busy or over the top. The holo in these glitters really makes this one truly gorgeous polish. I had several people stop and ask about this polish after seeing a flash of glittery holo.

Look at all that glitter! You can actually see how well it lays in this macro shot. So awesome!

IPASOY's formula is pretty darned good for an all glitter polish in a clear base. The glitter to base ratio was better than most glitters, and did not thicken with use. Application was easy, although I did have to dab on the first coat to make sure the glitters didn't move around with the brush strokes. I don't mind dabbing though - I actually prefer to dab the first coat with most glitters. IPASOY is opaque in 3 coats, and I recommend allowing each coat to dry a bit before adding the next. the glitters won't bald, but allowing each coat to dry a bit keeps the surface as smooth as possible. This is a thirsty glitter, so I used a coat of NPB Glitter Food to smooth things out (2 coats of top coat works as well - I tested that out on a thumb!) before adding top coat. I did have a bit of shrinkage at the tips of my ring fingers, but that's an incompatibility with my ridge filler and Glitter Food.

I'll be honest - I shy away from full glitter polishes most of the time because I find the application to be frustrating. IPASOY was one of the least frustrating full glitters that I've ever used. Barely any clean-up since the glitters didn't wander too far and none of the usual clumping. For removal, i recommend using the foil method or using Glitter-A-Peel peel off base coat from NPB.

Once again, my love for Love, Angeline is cemented. I swear every polish that Natosha makes is pure gold!

The Spellbound Collection is currently on sale at Love, Angeline Polish on Big Cartel for $6 per full size bottle.  You can also check out the Deep In The Enchanted Forest Collection for fall, and an incredible new Winter Collection is coming very soon. Be sure to follow Love, Angeline Polish on Facebook and Instagram for pre-order info, new releases, sales, and swatches.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
