Welcome back laqueristas,
I know it hasn't been all that long since I posted a megathon of art and swatches for
Elevation Polish and this month is very special because it brings the return of the fantastic Journey Through Music Collection Part Deux as well another gorgeous one of a kind Yeti. And if that wasn't enough this month is the Annual EvP Charity Auction! Unfortunately the collection was so big that I could not swatch and art them all out at once. It was just beyond me so I decided to split the post into 2 parts. Part 1 will cover 4 polishes and Part 2 will cover the other 3 polishes and more Yeti's. So a few things - below I have placed the links to all the songs each color was inspired by in the title of the polish; all you have to do is click. And please forgive me if my swatches and photos are a bit different this time since I got a new camera and I'm still getting the hang of things - eep! Now let's get started!
Ratatouille Strychnine
A shimmering pink and blue flecked shimmer topcoat inspired by Tori Amos' Mr. Zebra. This one can be made to wear solo if you are committed. It will take about 4 coats to reach opacity or you can do like I did and cheat and use a similar colored base color and then top it with this glorious shimmer! It worked out perfectly it took about 2 coats to make it more opaque and less of an accent, but in my trials playing around with this polish I've found it looks gorgeous over a variety of shades including layered in between semi-opaque polishes. When this polish hits the light just the right way you see flashes of blue everywhere as pictured below.
