Emily de Molly medium blue and lime stamping polish


Last week after swatching Human Oddity for the Chaos and Crocodiles collaboration, I thought I'd see how it would look with some gradient stamping! 

Here I used my Medium blue and my Lime stamping polish and I used Messy Mansions Bridal Nail 01 plate BN01

Baroness X Eerie-descence

So after I felt like a change from wearing Entwined by Enchanted Polish, I decided to just add a topper to it. I chose to wear Eerie-descence by Baroness X.

This topper is amazing! I cannot wait to try it over another colour, although I think this made a really amazing combo. This was one dabbed coat with a topcoat.

I Want To Believe collaboration collection with Chaos and Crocodiles

This is a pic heavy post, so I'll keep the text nice and short ;)
When Sarey and I decided to do a collaboration, picking the theme was pretty easy, we are both avid X-Files fans and with its re-release coming out very soon, now is a great time to release a collection inspired by it.

So lets get to the polish and then the release details at the end.

This is "Human Oddity"
Its a blue holo with silver ultra holographic glitter and blue to purple shimmer.
Shown is two coats with a topcoat ( Seche Vite ) Please note, this is the ultra thin glitter which is easy to remove and does not need topcoat to be smooth.

Next is "I'm not saying it's aliens"
Its a medium green subtle holo with green / gold / blue iridescent flakes and subtle red overlay.
Shown is two coats with topcoat.

Now, onto the details

Where to buy - Chaos and Crocodiles  The shop is currently closed now but a preview will be available before the launch.

When - Preorder begins Saturday at 8pm EST,  January 2 and runs for 24 hours only.
( This works out to be 12pm AEDT January 3rd for my Aussie friends ) Please note that this is a preorder, once final numbers come in, I will still need to make/pour/label etc and then ship the polishes over to Sarey, from Australia, before shipping commences. Please bear this in mind before ordering.

Other details - This is a limited edition release so they will not be available after this weekend's preorder. You will have the option to purchase the full collection or individual bottles. There will be customer limits so please read the listings carefully when purchasing. 
If you'd like to place a group buy, please email one of us for instructions. You can contact Sarey at ( chaos and crocodiles at gmail dot com ) or myself at the email below.

As this is only being sold from the Chaos and Crocodiles website as opposed to both websites, I will be organising a group buy for any Australians interested. I'll be organising this through the Emily de Molly Fan Group or through email for anyone who isn't on Facebook ( emilydemolly at yahoo dot com )

Red foil over Pretty Serious

So, while I did wear Pretty Serious Santas Sunburn for this mani, you actually cannot see it at all. I wanted something a little bit more bling for Christmas lunch, so I decided on foils.

I don't do foils often enough, I used to have issues with the topcoat dulling them but now I have Picture Polish Revolution. This stuff is amazing for foils, it doesn't dull them and they can easily last days.

DETAILS
  • Nail foils can be purchased from many places, I got mine from eBay
  • Coats to opacity - Two
  • Topcoat - 2 coats of Revolution from Picture Polish
    Until next time.....

Enchanted Polish - Entwined

Its not too often I come across a polish that I absolutely love enough to wear by itself but this beauty definitely was one of them.
I happily wore this for 3 days which is a long time for me.


Shown is two coats of Entwined with one of Seche Vite. I don't have a huge amount to say about this except that it is beautiful and I feel like I need another bottle!
