Happy Oscars everyone! And Happy Daytona 500 for those of you who love NASCAR! The Oscars are pretty much a holiday for me and my mom. My mama instilled in me a long time ago a tradition revolving around the Oscars, a tradition that I’ve forced on my boyfriend. Every year when the Oscar nominations come out, I have to see all of the best picture nominees. We go to the movies almost every weekend until we can see each and every movie. This year I missed 2, and I’m a little disappointed because now I can’t make true predictions for who I want to win. We also love the TCM Best Picture marathons that happen every year. Watching all of these amazing movies really helps me beat away those winter blues and gives me something to look forward to when we are housebound every February. So today I wanted to show a nice, spring time polish with a little glitter for all the glitz that we will be seeing tonight!
Hare Polish “Pegasus” is a lavender creme with silver chunky and small glitter. If you guys have been following my blog for a while then you know that Hare Polish is my all time favorite indie brand. I love all of Nikole’s creations, and this one is no exception. Lavender doesn’t always love my skin tone but this is the one lavender polish that I don’t want to take off right away.
The formula is really thick! Its opaque in 2 coats but is almost like applying tar that’s littered with rocks. The glitter doesn’t move around when you apply it though, once its on its not going anywhere. The dry time is really great as well. But be prepared for a few coats of top coat to get a smooth surface because this polish is thirsty! I still love this polish, I think its perfect for spring and its turned into one of my favorite Hare Polishes.
What do you guys think? What are your favorite indies? Or favorite Hare Polish?
I think this is beautiful!! Unfortunately I have never tried any indie polishes but would love to!!
thanks! i hope you get the chance to try some someday. i get most of mine from Llarowe or searching on Etsy
This is one I’ve been eying for SOOOO long and have not yet managed to get my hands on. It is gorgeous and looks amazing on you, Holly!
awww thanks! hopefully you can snag it up one day! Llarowe ships to canada right? hopefully she’ll have a restock soon
I love it, it’s gorgeous 🙂
thanks! nikkole really is awesome with her polish creations!
It’s a beauty! I love this lavendel with the white chunks in it. It’s a bit of a mixture of Winter and Spring. Just like I’m feeling right now. 😉
oh that would be gorgeous! hopefully theres a company out there that makes a polish like that! if not you could layer OPI “Pirouette My Whistle” or Nubar “White Polka Dot” over a lavender
This one looks gorgeous! One of my favorite indies right now is actually a new discover for me, Different Dimension. Amazing polishes and I love every single on of the ones I have 😀
aww thanks! i’ve heard of different dimension but haven’t tried them yet! i might be tempted now! thanks for the suggestion
Super cute polish for spring 🙂
oh yeah! now i just wish it felt like spring outside
Me too! My skin is so bad in this wetter. Minus blabla and snow and stuff 😦
What I want to know is what movie you would’ve voted for! (I liked “Argo” but am not sure it was the best of that bunch. But I hadn’t seen near all of them, either.)
oh man it was hard! i absolutely loved argo, silver linings, les mis, and django. but i was between argo and les mis for best picture, but if any of the 4 won i would have been happy
