New Stuff! Spring colors, ICFA, and a few randoms!

This past week, I posted all the new colors and reposted everything that was sold out, so we're at full capacity!

Here's the noobs for your consideration:

 Codex! First of what will be a full set of The Guild colors...when I get back from ICFA and then finish my novel and have time to formulate them...

I really like how this one turned out, and even with my funky nails, it was super-easy to apply when I tested it--and really, since I'm the one making these, that's how it should be.

 The new spring colors--Equinox, Crocus, Verdure and Caelum. Super-sheer, but sparkly and sweet, and I think perfect for a classic-but-kicky spring.

 Happy Accident -- it's what happened when I was trying to make something else! It was almost called Slimer, but I changed my mind.

 Unseelie -- My St Patty's Day color for this year! A little sheer like all my greens seem to be, but with shimmers of gold and green and lots of gold and green glitter, so that it looks opaque anyway. I love this shade. I've been wearing it all weekend.

 Prince of Stories and Trandformations, the colors I made for ICFA-34, the best conference ever, that I'm finally getting to go back to this year! Prince is what my head looks like when I read Neil Gaiman, or when I hear him speaking*, black with green shimmer, very small green flakies and green glitter. Transformations is a deep red with gold and pinkish-red shimmer and a slight duochrome, and is built on a batch of pigment I got that sometimes changes color--it transforms!

 3.14159 -- The color for Pi Day! It's the grey-black-green of those old chalkboards where I first learned about Pi, with bonus actual chalk powder, and a semi-matte finish. I really love it.

 Baby Rainbow -- Two different sizes of rainbow-iridescent microglitter in a topper to add all sorts of sparkle. It also looks impossibly sweet on it's own, but then you'll need lots of top-coat!


And last but not least, Vulcan, my first Star Trek color! This is for the dearly departed planet of the people of the same name, lost in the reboot. It's a desert-stone orange with gold and red shimmer and sparse silver stars. It's way more opaque than my usual polishes, a quirk of the pigment that works perfectly for a world that's bigger than earth and therefore heavier.

They're all at the shop now, as well as all the ones that had dropped off in recent months (like the entire Firefly Line, which is all back!), so have at em!



*Have I mentioned that I'm sort of synaesthetic? No? Well, I am. Sounds, especially voices, music, sometimes shows or movies, look like colors and shapes in my head, so I try to translate them into the nail polish. Cool, huh?
