Giveaway Prize

Dearest readers!  I know that you thought I fell off of the planet, but alas, no I am here.  I’ve just been exceptionally busy and I feel terrible about neglecting a midweek post!  The first part of the semester is always hectic as I try to get into my routines and balance my work load.

Today I’m going to show you an amazing polish by Carpe Noctem Cosmetics!  I won it in a giveaway and I was beyond excited as I have had them on my list to try for a long time!  Without further ado I have for your viewing pleasure…Sapphire Abyss:

Isn’t she lovely?  Did you totally just sing that phrase in your head?  Just me huh…ok moving on!  Sapphire Abyss is a lovely dusty purple shimmer polish with a PROMINENT blue flash.  Seriously I kept just shifting my fingers under the lamp because I was mesmerized!

I mean it’s just so pretty!  I need more polishes like this in my collection as I tend to gravitate to glitters…but glitters need undies!  Nail art is something else I need good solids for and this one is a good solid.  The formula is good!  Nice even opacity in two coats without any dragging or balding.  The only thing is that I noticed that you can sort of see brushstrokes so I was very careful with my second coat.  Nothing that a little patience doesn’t take care of!    Overall I’m really delighted with this polish!

Polishes Used:  Glisten & Glow – Stuck on Blu; Carpe Noctem Cosmetics – Sapphire Abyss; Glisten & Glow – HK Girl Top Coat.

I promise not to take off again for so long without warning!  Do you want your OWN bottle of Sapphire Abyss?  I know where you can find it!  Carpe Noctem is available in her Etsy Shoppe.  If you want to keep up on all the news and happenings then definitely check out her Facebook Page!
