New Polish Swatches
I'm so pleased to announce that our (![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
jlailin and I) Llarowe order finally came in (which also means I finally get to mail these_ordinary_days her birthday present--none of which is included here)! Since I'm still wearing the Sally Hansen Salon Effects polish strips (day 5...and still only has some minor tip wear and some unnoticeable chips on some nail tips--awesome!), I decided to swatch these on paper. I know the effect isn't exactly the same, but I really wanted to see these out of the bottle (flakies swatched over black polish really brings out their effect!). Some of the colors are slightly off...andI was willing to bust out my digicam for this, but it decided to die...so crappy phone pics again it is. I included essie's Shine ofthe Times to compare it to the new flake polishes.
The swatches done on the false nails are a mixture of all the flakies (except Shine of the Times). Gorgeous, right?

And this is all the stuff that came in today...four packages worth. O_o;;;
