Elevation Polish Summit Collection #2 Swatches & Nail Art

Hey lacquer ladies,

Press Sample 

Hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend!  Today I've got swatches and nail art for the soon to be released Elevation Polish Summit Collection Part Deaux,  As usual I'm thrilled again this month to be able to share these glorious polishes with you.  I think you'll find the 2nd part of the Summit Collection to have a denser earthier feel than the first.  You can check out swatches here to compare.  For this collection there's something for everyone neutral holos, soft crellies, intense shimmers, and bright glitter toppers.  So let's get started!

Elberus 2

A deep red leaning plum shimmer polish.  Dark for the vampy lovers in us all.  A bit of a palate cleanser in the brights of the summer spring season.  For me this one was a hidden gem.  The formula was thicker than I expected and like butter leveling out perfectly in 2 coats.  I feel myself smacking my lips over this one lolol.  Like I said hidden gem.

Kosciuszko (Kozy)

Super pretty hot pink matte glitter topper in a shimmering base.  Essentially the prettiest girliest type of glitter topper you can imagine which is also perfect for the spring and Mother's Day.   I struggled with this one though.  The neon pink/red nature of the glitter freaked my camera out too much.  I tried to compensate by pairing another pink to adjust the color too.  Somehow I'm not sure if I was able to capture how beautiful this polish really is.

Everest 2
A flattering deep taupe holographic.  This particular holo is not the super strong linears we've seen coming out of the EP kitchen.  This one is softer and subtle causing the polish to seem extremely delicate despite the deepness of the taupe.  In short I love it!  I was so hard pressed not to overwhelm the base that I decided to do a very simple and clean nail art for this one.  Of note this pretty shade is basically a ONE coater, and you ladies know how I feel about that ;)

Mount McKinley

A lavender crelly that unless I missed my mark is going to be universally flattering on most if not all skin tones!  Opaque in 2 coats with a flawless flawless formulation.  When I think about this polish it reminds me of why I fell so hard for the EP brand long ago!  This is such a gorgeous shade I paired with with the usual smorgasbord of EP shades in pastel shades to let it's delicacy play out against and abstract foreground.
