Elevation Polish Streets of Japan Collection Swatches & Nail Art

Hey varnished vixens,

Its that time again when my heart sings with joy for the latest and greatest from Elevation Polish!  I usually like to have the post up sooner but had a small delay with my parcel so I only had a few days to swatch and create art.  Fortunately the collection in question namely the Streets of Japan was so inspired and so beautiful that it felt very easy to think of at least 10, 000 ideas for the polishes. Lol that was actually the problem trying to tone myself down and create a single look.  I'll tell you a little secret because I have a very hard time deciding on how to best showcase my EvPs more often than not I will create multiple nail arts for a given polis hand post the one I like best.  Yup I'm officially crazy lolol don't you dare call the paddy wagon! Now let's take a look at  the goods ;)

Floss Gloss Tribal Neon Nail Art

Hey my lacquer ladies,

I am so thrilled right now!  You know how there are times you think of idea in you head and then you create it and it falls short of your expectations?  Today was so not that day.  Instead it's a day where my nail art came out so fabulously I want to never ever take it off!  That's the problem with creating something you love when you're a nail art blogger; inevitably you have to move on to chase the next high.  The colors were so bright for this mani that it freaked my camera out a bit so I apologize in advance for my weird skin tone, but I needed to adjust the settings to capture a color accurate photo.

For the nail art I predominantly stuck to using my new Floss Gloss Nail Lacquers.  Floss Gloss is a sleek indie outfit which I feel doesn't quite fit neatly into that category.  For instance if you think about brands like Rescue Beauty Lounge, Cult Nails, and A England these brands seems a bit more mainstream in their packaging and branding.  Floss Gloss has the same ambiance.  I discovered them after seeing a Fast Lane swatch on IG and it was over just like that.  Suddenly these little beauties were flying into my cart.  The only down side is that they are only 0.18 fl oz as compared with the standard 0.5 fl oz polishes that we expect.

Once again I turned to my MoYou London plates to create this nail art.  You can expect more of that from me.  I'm in a deep romance with my MoYou plates right now.  It's hard for me to look elsewhere which is rare.  Explorer 15 in particular is a favorite as it features all kinds of Moari tribal designs, and as someone who lived in New Zealand for over 3 months I can't help but be reminded of the beauty of the culture and the landscape. So as you can imagine MoYou is making me quite happy these days.

Are you all tired of my tribal nails yet?   I feel like I will love them for always and I hope you enjoyed this one. You can find Floss Gloss Nail Lacquer here.  It retails for $8 per bottle, but if you sign up for the newsletter you'll be pleasantly surprised by the amount of sales this company offers occasionally.  MoYou London plates can be found here.  Thanks so much for reading and see you next post!
