Hello again Lovelies! I know it's late at night, but I promised a second post today, so here I am!

Tonight I have another polish from Love, Angeline's upcoming Smoke & Mirrors Collection. This pretty is one of my very faves from this collection.

Lovely Assistant is a soft white crelly loaded with soft aqua, lavender, and matte gray glitters. This girl is absolutely gorgeous! Since there are swatches of this polish over white already, I decided to show Lovely Assistant on her own.

This is 3 coats of Lovely Assistant with top coat:

I have to admit it - I really dig this! I adore pastel glitter in white, and this is quite possibly my new fave white crelly/glitter combo. I love how bright the glitters are, despite being pastels, and the color combo is perfection.

Lovely Assistant's formula is fabulous! No thickening, gopping, glopping, or clumps of glitter, which is impressive since this baby is absolutely loaded with glitter. Application was excellent with no dragging or balding, and the glitters dispersed evenly. Lovely Assistant is fairly sheer, so you will need all 3 coats for opacity, or you can layer over white. Dry time was quick for 3 coats and wear is fabulous with no visible signs of wear at just under 24 hours.  This girl does dry fairly textured, so I recommend a coat of Glitter Food if you choose to wear this alone. I'm wearing only top coat here and it's still a bit textured (but then again, I don't mind some texture to my nails!). No glitter food needed if you wear this layered though.

Yup, Lovely Assistant is another Epic Win for Natosha! I can't wait to get my hands on the rest of this collection! Whites and Grays and glitters? What a great idea for a collection! I swear, every time I wear a Love, Angeline polish I fall a little more in love.

If you haven't checked out Love, Angeline polish, you are missing out! Head on over to Love, Angeline Polish on Big Cartel. The Smoke & Mirrors Collection is currently only available through pre-order through tomorrow, with full release on 8/21. Each polish sells for $8, with the full collection available for $21.00.  Be sure to follow Love, Angeline on Facebook and Instagram for release info and swatches!

What do you think of Lovely Assistant? What's your fave White Crelly Polish?

I'll be back tomorrow with a new polish from Gypsyanna Polish! Saturday brings more from Luscious Potion and Sunday I'll have some glittery goodness from Shimmer Polish, so be sure to check back soon!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!

Love, Angeline Smoke & Mirrors Collection - Magic Cape

Hello there Lovelies!  I apologize for my absence yesterday and my lateness today. I was sick as ll get out yesterday and today, although I felt better this morning, wasn't much better. I had a lot of errands to run as well as my daughter's therapy session, and I am feeling so run down now.  SO I'm skipping Try It On Tuesday this week since I just don't have the energy.

I do have something special to share today though, so let's get to it!

Love, Angeline Polish has fast become a favorite brand, and Natosha is releasing a brand new Collection on August 21 (pre-order 8/7 - 8/9). This collection is called Smoke & Mirrors and is comprised of 6 gorgeous shades, based on greys and whites. I was lucky enough to receive 2 of these beauties to share with you!

The first polish from this collection is called Magic Cape, and is a soft grey jelly packed with pink, white, and holographic glitters. I don't wear them often since they do weird things to my skin tone, but I adore greys! And you all already know about my love affair with all things glittery, as well as holographic. I could not wait to get this baby on my nails!

This is 2 coats of Magic Cape with top coat:

So beautiful! This is the perfect shade of grey, and those glitters! Love, Love, Love!!! Since these were taken in my light box, the holo glitters aren't as evident as they are in the bottle. In natural light and sunlight, the holo glitters are ultra sparkly, and the pink and white more prominent.

Magic Cape's formula is nothing short of wonderful. Perfect consistency with no thickening during use, no clumps of glitters, and no shaking until your arms fall off to get sunken glitters mixed back into the base. Application was effortless with no dragging or balding, even glitter dispersal, and excellent opacity. I'm wearing 2 coats here, no need for a third. Dry time was fast, and wear was excellent with only one tiny spot of tip wear on my index finger on my dominant hand at almost 48 hours. This pretty does dry just slightly textured, however my usual top coat was enough to smooth this out perfectly.

Another winner for Natosha! I swear, every time I try another Love, Angeline polish I fall in love a little more. Natosha's polishes are just gorgeous, and I have yet to encounter any issues with her polish. Not to mention, she is the sweetest person! As I mentioned before, I have another gorgeous polish from the upcoming Smoke & Mirrors Collection to share with you on Thursday ( and quite a few from previous collections as well.), and you don't want to miss it. I won't give much away, other than to say the color combo is brilliant!

You can find Love, Angeline on Big Cartel. The Smoke & Mirrors Collection will be available for pre-order from 8/7 to 8/9, with full release on 8/21. Polishes will be priced at $8 each, with the option to purchase the whole collection for a bit less. There will be a special surprise for Natosha's 100th order as well, so keep an eye out! I recommend following Love, Angeline on Facebook and Instagram for pre-order info, swatches, etc.

I'll be back tomorrow with another Mish Mash Challenge manicure! Love, Angeline re-appears on Thursday, and I'll have some Gypsyanna Polish on Friday (skipping Flakie Friday this week to play catch up).

What do you think of Magic Cape? Are you a fan of Grey polishes?

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
