Enchanted Polish Afternoon Delight

May 28, 2014
My grandpa recently past away and like many polish-holics, I occupied myself with polish. I needed something I could wear to the funeral and this was the mani I ended up with. From my previous posts it's evident I rarely ever wear nude/ beige colors so these are what I consider my conservative nails!

 Enchanted Polish Afternoon Delight is a beautiful nude holo! The polish has a slight blue shimmer to it in the shade but in the sunlight this baby was a full on holo! Although I don't wear nudes that often, I loved this colour on me! It applied flawlessly and had an average dry time.

Here is Afternoon Delight with two coats:

On the accent nail I did a bit of stamping with Konad's Special White polish and MoYou London Pro Collection 06 (XL) for the swirly design.

What do you think of this color? I'm really digging this color and think this will be my go-to nude polish!

Enchanted Polish can be found on their website during restocks but it's best to sign up for newsletters and occasionally check the site as Chelsea's polishes go fast!

MoYou London plates can be found on their website as well as on Amazon.

Zoya Veruschka

May 19, 2014
Holy Batman, it's been a while!

Zoya Veruschka is a gorgeous deep shimmery green with a velvet-matte finish. In it's original state the polish is really nice. But when you add a top coat, wow! I definitely preferred the top coated version but both versions look beautiful! The Zoya I'm using is from the original release of the Matte Velvet collection but it was recently re-released in 2013 and available on their website.

Here is 2 coats of Veruschka with and without topcoat to show the different look between the two:

 And here's another bonus angle I thought you would all appreciate:

Which version do you prefer? I personally loved the top coat version!

I decided to stamp some birds, leaves and flowers over this colour since the green reminds me of the forest. For this design I used parts of MoYou London's Mother Nature/ Landscape 02 plate and Barry M's Gold Foil:
