Hello Lovelies! I know, I know..I'm late to the party this afternoon. I've been working on swatches this afternoon since I fell asleep when I was supposed to be swatching not once, not twice...but 3 times in a row! I wish I could say that it was lovely and I feel all sorts of refreshed, but in all honesty it wasn't. The only reason that I slept that much was because my body literally shut down and that was that. For months I've been sleeping in 2 hour increments...2-3 hours at night, and maybe a 2 hour nap during the day. Too much to get done and not enough hours in the day, right? Well my body decided that it had quite enough of that, and wham! Kimber's out for the count! My hubby later told me that he was unable to wake me on all 3 nights. Good for my worn out self, but it put me behind on just about everything.
I'd also like to welcome back...my left hand! I prefer to photograph my left hand, however since it had zero free edge for along time there (I was growing out some damage), I've been photographing my right hand. You'll still see my right hand making appearances, but my left hand will no longer be in hiding, despite being slightly shorter than my right. I'm fairly certain that you lovelies don't really mind, right? Although someone please remind me to tuck my thumb out of the way when I'm taking pics! ;)
Today I have a custom polish from the awesome Tammy at Live Life Polished. This polish was a complete surprise actually - it popped out at me from a package that Tammy had sent with her thermal and photo-chromatic polishes (still working on those, folks! Trying to get both good sunlight and accurate pics for you.), and really made my day. I was literally touched to the point of tears, and still get a little misty when I look at this polish.
A Mother's Prayer is a neon pink jelly loaded with iridescent and holo glitters. The name is in honor of my own Mother, and her battle with Stage 4 Inoperable (and incurable) Adenocarcinoma of the lung. This girl is literally packed with my favorite colors and finishes, and I'll be honest - photographs do not show much of this polish at all. This is one of those pretties that you must see IRL, otherwise you're missing half of what's going on. The iridescent glitters are incredibly camera shy, whereas IRL they are readily apparent and really catch and reflect the light onto the holo glitters.
This is 2 coats of A Mother's Prayer, with top coat:
See what I mean? You can tell there's alot more going on than what the camera managed to capture. I do wish that I could actually show you those iridescent glitters - they're pretty darn cool. You can see the flashes of color from them if you look closely though!
Since A Mother's Prayer is a custom polish, it is not available for purchase, however you can check out all of Tammy's amazing creations at Live Life Polished on Store Envy. There are tons of neons, glitters, and thermals to choose from! Full size polishes sell for $6, minis for $3, and you can also grab entire collections at a discount, so check it out! You can also now follow Live Life Polished on Facebook as well as Instagram - make sure to give Tammy a like!
What do you think of A Mother's Prayer? Are you a fan of iridescent glitters?
I'll be back later this evening with some Luscious Potion, and make sure to check back tomorrow for a special surprise!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
-Kimber
