Everything Right About This

EDITED: Found some sunshine today!





Colors by Llarowe Olivia is supposed to be olive, but it's so rainbow-y and metallic it's really more of a khaki holo. I added a couple accents of Glitter Daze multichrome flakie Nymphomaniac and I'm a happy camper.
Poshe topcoat, no dulling.

Good Fortune indeed! Colors by Llarowe

Snagged this beauty on a stealth restock- deep teal linear holo, perfect in two coats, the brushes on these are a little moppish for me, so I had more cleanup that I usually do, tiny bit of staining but not as bad as I expected with a blue. Stunning color, indoors and out.

Untrieds ROCK!!

I've been polish challenged lately, having to try all the holiday polishes I've been sent for review. I'm not a swatcher, I wear polish for at least two days unless it's really really awful, so when I get a chance to wear anything I want, it's usually something FABULOUS! Colors by Llarowe Oh Christmas Tree fits that label nicely. It's a deep evergreen holo, perfect in two thin coats. A squooosh lighter than Glitter Gal Lizard Belly, and a tad bit less opaque.  I'm not as sold on Crows Toes Indian Summer, the purplish/red duo/multichrome. Even after four coats it's patchy and a bit lumpy. Stunning, but meh on application. Not sure what to do there, but it does take pretty pictures- these are all with topcoat in various lighting and flash.

OK, so CbL? What's CbL?

Colors by Llarowe is a line designed by Leah Anne Larowe of www.llarowe.com fame. Restocks of her deeply colored heavily holographic polishes are things of legend, so I set my face as flint and decided to see what the fuss was about. Two hours and six polishes later, I see the light. Well, the rainbows. I wouldn't say these are the best holo polishes EVAH because I don't think they are. They are pretty amazing though, even for two coats I needed (some reviewers seem to get away with one coat)  Here is Obnoxious Annie and Black Gold, Texas Tea with Lippmann Gel Effect topcoat. Application was easy and cleanup a cinch.
