Glitter Gal Lizard Belly

First of all, I would like to apologize of being lazy and have neglected this blog for months. It was all hectic in the past few months, I was all tied up at work, house chore, trips and etc.. So much so that I have forgotten about this blog totally, still wondering how could that happen. 

Although I am not updating this blog, I constantly paint my nails and take photos of them. I have a few great polishes that I have not shared before queuing up.

The first that make it to the opening of my return is the Glitter Gal Lizard Belly. For those of you who follows Australian nail polish brands would definitely aware of this amazing color. You know that I am not good at describing colors, so I will let the photos to speak the words.

 These two photos are taken under sunlight, you could see holographic effect.

This last photo was purposely blurred to show the amount of holo particles in this polish. I am absolutely in love with this polish, tell me what you think about this.

Til next time... Esther

A-England Princess Tears Swatch

This post was scheduled to be up during the weekends but I was busy lazing at home and totally forgot about it. :p Well, I guess it's better late than never.. :)


I got this color (together with Bridal Veil) during their recent Tristam 1 year old sale. As some of you may know, this was not the color that I ordered, guessed they had received overwhelming response and had sent me this instead of the Princess Sabra which I had ordered. 

But I keep this color instead since it looks amazingly good, you would know what I mean after the photos. It's a greyed/silvered lilac with holographic finish.

I have captured insanely lots of picture of this color, I just couldn't help but to keep snapping as the holographic finish is so pretty and interesting... Love this color!


I initially thought this color would be streaky as it as the metallic finish which I tend to avoid. I was wrong, the  formula was smooth and leveled itself well at each layer. But it's a little bit thin, so you need at least 2 coats for opacity. The only drawback about this color is the drying time, I feel that it's much longer than the normal creme or shimmer polish, so you need to be super patient while applying this color. Maybe it's the nature of holographic polish?


I really love this color and will definitely order more from A-England. If you are interested in getting A-England polishes, they are available in the following webstores A-England, Llarowe, Ninja Polish and Mei Mei's Signatures. All of them offer international shipment.
