Above The Curve - Fallen Angel

I've had this polish for a while and have been meaning to try it and I finally did last week.  I've previously used I Pink I Can, I Pink I Can, a limited edition pink holo polish that was absolutely gorgeous on me, so I was eager to try Fallen Angel as well.  I hope to get the entire Angel line at some point, but for now, this will have to do.

I love Above The Curve polishes.  They have gorgeous colors and they apply beautifully and they donate $1.00 of every bottle sold to Shriner's Hospitals for Children and help raise awareness for Scoliosis.  Lots of good about a little bottle of polish.

Fallen Angel is a holographic polish with pink/purple/blue color shifting shimmer.  As you can see, it is beautiful!

You can really see the blue shimmer here. I wish I had a better picture.  It really sparkles in the sunlight, but sunlight was scarce around here when I was wearing this polish.  The other colors of the shimmer are very noticeable in the sun and it sparkles like crazy.

I found this formula thicker than I Pink I Can and had to use three coats to get it even, but I think I little thinner will fix that right up.  Otherwise I was great.  It dried quickly and I just needed my normal one coat of top coat - the polish is extremely smooth when it dries. I did get tip wear fairly quickly and it shows in the picture so please forgive me.  The tip wear is no fault of the polish.  My nails are at that length where no matter what I am doing I am hitting the tips on something and I have the tip wear issue with every polish I use.  If I was a lady of leisure it wouldn't be a problem. :)

There are now many more colors in the Angel line and they are all gorgeous!  Stop over at their blog for info and you can purchase your very own bottle at their Etsy and Big Cartel shops.

Go Pink! Wednesday - Final Week

It's the final week for the Go Pink! Wednesdays, hosted by Finger Painting Fingers.  Go check out the other lovely pink manis!

This was the first nail polish thing I participated in and it was so much fun!  I hope to do more of them in the future.

My last manicure is a lovely pink holographic polish by Above The Curve called I Pink I Can, I Pink I Can.  Look how gorgeous this polish is:

Even though Breast Cancer Awareness month is over after today, please remember how important it is to get mammagrams regularly to do self-exams every month.  You're worth it!

I Pink I Can, I Pink I Can - Above The Curve

I received two new polishes the week from Above The Curve, I Pink I Can, I Pink I Can and Fallen Angel.  Both of them are beautiful and I tried I Pink I Can first.

This is a gorgeous pink.  I love pink polish (along with black, glittery polish and almost any red) but sometimes pinks look weird on my fingers.  Not this one!  It a soft pink with holographic glitter.  the sparkly is very subtle in my house becuase I don't have the greatest lighting, but look how it comes out when I took the picture:

 

 

It's cold, gloomy and rainy here in Ohio, but someday the sun will come out again and I'll bet this will look gorgeous in the sun.

 

The formula was great.  It applied evenly and was silky smooth.  Even on my right hand which usually requires major cleanup, there was very little for me to do.  It dried quickly and smooth to the touch.  I used three coats with a topcoat of Seche Vite.

 

 

Isn't it gorgeous with all the sparkly goodness?  I'll be buying more of these in the future.  Next mani - most likely Fallen Angel from the same.

 

Stay safe everyone.  It's nasty out there.
