Dawn is gorgeous, a deeper medium pink with a slight red undertone, good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, this also stamps. Hopefully you can see the red undertone in the stamping.

A rare pic of both cats on me on the bed, usually its just Ellie who sleeps on me at night, she loves to lean against my legs and she will not move if I move my legs. Obi comes to see me on the bed but usually hops down after 20-30 minutes, this moring he stayed for at least a couple of hours.

Ellie is gorgeous, perfect formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, she also stamps nicely.

Kelsey is also stunning, perfect formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, she also stamps. These two are super close but not dupes, I dont think you can tell in my photos but Ellie is darker and has a bit more blue undertone than Kelsey, I also show you Kelsey and Ellie compared to Kristie, my photos dont show the subtle differences though.

Anyone who isnt a polish-a-holic isnt going to see the differences in these pinks.

I had my first vaccine on Saturday, other than my arm feeling like I'm been thumped I'm totally fine, only took some paracetamol on the Saturday.

Because one polish is called Ellie we need to see my Ellie, who was looking particularly cute, she was crashed on my legs yesterday and then this morning she was fascinated by my hubs watching a husky on youtube. Shes a strange kitty, she will happily crash out on my lap and actively watch TV.

Kat is a stunner, I love the red undertone and gold flash to this, good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, this stamps but you'd need to use a pale base for this to show up.

Reece is very unusual its a pink with a strong green shimmer flash, good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, this stamps better than Kat.

So pics of Mr Shiny Obi :)
