Good Morning loves!! I have a very special post for you today! I was contacted by Gloss48 to try some amazing polish from one of their amazing indie polish lines they carry. Gloss48 is a shopping site that carries must-have indie beauty brands! I was in heaven when I started looking around this site. There are some brands I've heard of and some I hadn't but now I MUST try! (all links will be at the bottom of this post for all brands and stores, and their social media) I had the pleasure of trying out some polish from Fanchromatic Nails. These polishes are gorg! The sale begins on Gloss48's site @ 11am EST on July 15th (Today) and ends July 22nd (Tuesday) at 11am EST!!! So mark it on your calenders!! There will be an exclusive duo made for Gloss48 called Fires Of Doom & My Precious!! (pssst... I have a swatch of one of them below) On to the swatches ....isn't that what you came for :)~

Orchidae
*drools*  This is a stunning bright orchid/purple sheer jelly base with gold and pink glass flecks! It is by far one of my most fave polishes of all time! This is absolutely STUNNING!! This is 2 coats of this polish in this photo. There is a little VNL showing with 2 coats, but I am sure 3 coats would be full coverage! I prefer mine with 2 coats tho!

I was also challenged by Gloss48 to come up with an inspired mani with these gorgeous polishes. 
I came up with this!


I used Orchidae and Drowned God. I also used some vinyl stencils from Neverland Lacquers. I used the waves and the lines (for the accent nail).

My inspiration came from a Dragon's Egg. My son plays a lot of dragon related apps on my phone. He loves taking care of them, feeding them, fighting them and watching them grow. I am enamored with the colors in these apps. 

When I saw the colors layered together, I couldn't have been more hypnotized with how they "played" with each other. Just a tiny being (the rhinestone) turning and flourishing into this extravagant, magnificent majestical creature. Fantasy has always intrigued me, something about the unknown and ALL THE COLORS!!
