Elevation Polish Annual Charity Auction 2015: Yeti Is A Scaredy Cat

Yo laqueristas,

Press Sample

Woah double post today!  And let me tell it is not because I am celebrating the pretend day that to many historians and anthropologists alike (raises hand) recognize as the beginning of the decimation of an entire continent of indigenous peoples and their culture.  Ha! Instead it's because I want to draw your attention to an extremely charitable and awesome annual cause fronted by the wonderful and thoughtful Lulu of Elevation Polish.  Yup it's the 4th Annual Charity Auction run by EvP! The charity is called Chrestomathy, Inc.  Its a Minnesota local day training and habilitation service geared toward adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.  Since I spend a large portion of my life living for cura personalis, and of course nail polish cause hey let's be honest, this kind of event gives me some serious happy! That said today I'm going to be sharing one of the gorgeous polishes you can attain through this auction + some nail art cause it's Lacquer Lockdown and that's kinda my bag baby;)

This looks super complex but it was actually a rather straightforward method.  Because YWASC is a matte glitter topper for Halloween I wanted to make it look a little more festive and happy.  As it is its full of black, orange, and purple hexes and also contains little black hearts and black and silver stars.  So I created a jelly sandwich with Northern Lights for a bit of sparkle and applied 2 healthy coats of topcoat. I think this is actually one of my more successful jelly sandwiches so I'm quite pleased.

As you can see the orange and purple really pop right out at you.  This is so perfect and cute for the Halloween season.

Mani-louge

Basecoat/Topcoat: UNT Take Flight Peel Off Basecoat / Sally Hansen Diamond Flash

Jelly Sandwich: Jolie Polish Black Crelly and IMN Northern Lights

Stamping polish: Mundo de Unas White (1)

Stamping plates:  Bunny Nails HD-C and HD-D

Just a little more macro so you can see "inside" the sandwich.

For this one I kept the nail art very simple.  I wanted to play to the name of the polish.  Yeti being a little scaredy cat and all hides the minute any ghosts come out to play.  Boo!  Lol I broke out my trusty Bunny Nails plates for this.  If you've read my favorite plates for Halloween post you know these are some of my absolute favorite plates for Halloween nail art.

So here's the deal.  Yeti will be available for purchase at $10 each + shipping or you can get it during auction for the same price of course because it's an auction prices will go up depending on interest in each polish.  You can find the store link to purchase tonight here or you can join the auction here until the 15th of the month.  This really is a great cause and you should definitely support it!  Lulu has done this for 4 years now and each year has been a great success.  You can also find many more polishmakers participating this year including Crowstoes, Serum No 5, Phalish, and so many others so definitely check it out!  Thanks so much for reading and I'll see you next post....

This polish was sent for my honest review.  For more info please see my Disclosure Policy.
