Prince & the Rose

Just like a ton of you out there, I got the new A England set.  I just love Adina's polish.  Of course, they're holos, but a special kind of holo like no one else does.  I do have to say that the two I used for today's post, were thick and kind of gloopy and chipped the very next day.  I've never had that before with this brand and I'm hoping it was just something I did.  I'll have to add some thinner next time I use them.

Barring that, these colors are stunning!  I still love them even with the issues! They're just that gorgeous.

The cicadas are gone for the most part. The noise is gone, the bugs are gone.  The only thing left are the bodies.  Even those are gone since my guy mowed my yard yesterday!  It's like a bad nightmare that I just woke up from!  I got comments that the news in Ireland and Denmark actually had segments about the cicadas on their news.  I find that hilarious!  I so love my readers for telling me these things.  You guys rock big time out there!

You will also note that I had to nubbinize my nails again.  If you pay attention to my tweets, you will have seen my naked nails showing that I am halfway to brand new healthy nails using oils.  The old yellowed stuff is growing out, it's been three months so I have three more to go, but I'm excited to see the new nails.  I had to cut down the peelies that just didn't look good at all.

Here is your silly bottle shot.



This is A England Briar Rose and Fated Prince.  When I first got the Prince, I had deja vu.  Those of you devoted to this brand will see that this is a color somewhere between Dorian Gray and Ascalon.  It is closer to Dorian Gray, but has more holo happiness to it.  So yes you must own this as well!

I started with Rose and an accent of Prince.  Here are the starting shots.

OMG! Do you know what I just realized???  This makes two pink posts in a row. What the hell is wrong with me? I can't really say this Briar Rose is totally pink. It's more a muted reddish pink.  I'm ok with that.

Now I was way too lazy to stamp so I decided to just do random dots.  I have no idea what I was going for here.  Maybe a half moon mani with a belt?  Who the hell knows.  Here is that step.

Yes pretty weird I know.  Maybe you guys can tell me what you think this is? Finished this off with my funky.  Here are the results.

I love how A England's holos are just so stunning.  Love the way it's scattered and just like nothing anyone else does out there!  Swoooooon.

What do you think of this?

Until next time people.  Any thoughts out there?
