I Don't Normally Swatch...

I only had time for a quick swatch of these glitter lovelies from the ever brilliant and creative Jenna of Lacquistry (go see here ) but I love both of them for the fall thru holiday season, these are gorgeous.  Jenna describes Pallor as: Pallor is a blend of matte grey and holo charcoals in a clear base. Pallor is lovely on its own with 2 coats giving full coverage. You get the best of both worlds, the sophisticated grey matte glitters and the lovely twinkle of the color shifting charcoal holo glitters to catch the eye.
and  Shaved Ice is a mixture of color shifting clear glitters and color shifting pigments.

I've painted two coats of each (P,SI,P,SI) plain on left and over black on right- click the pics to close up on these beauties! No topcoat

Come ON fall!!!!

Can't Wait can't wait for cooler weather to come so I dragged out my trusty fave fall orange, Finger Paints Cordur-Orange. Wish I'd had the sense to get a back up. Two  coats

Illamasqua Jewels- Rampage and Phallic!

Been swapping away to upgrade my stash a bit, and the edgy, fabulous, perfect formula Illamasquas have been high on my list. These two just begged to be put together, and except for a bit of smurfiness from the navy shimmer Phallic, I am so pleased with the result. Rampage is my favorite emerald at the moment as well. Pantone color of the year for a good reason. Two coats each,  HK Girl over.
