Sounds like a good day to talk about polish ;)
Recently, Pahlish and Elevation Polish collaborated and came out with the limited edition Venetian Duo.
This duo consists of "The Wayfarer" (Pahlish), a mix of ultra chrome and platinum flakes with iridescent glitters, and "The Merchant's Son" (Elevation), an aqua turquoise thermal with green micro shimmer. I did not catch the thermal shift in my photos, partially because I'm lazy, but mostly because it's still too dang hot out here to properly photograph the shift before the cold state changed back to warm. C'mon, Fall!!
Did a big ole order from Ali Express at the beginning of the month and all the nail art accessories are starting to come in, so I've been playing ^_^
The application of both polishes was super smooth. The Merchant's Son was a "thicker" polish but still applied smoothly and leveled out very nicely. I'm wearing two coats in the photos above. The Wayfarer spread out evenly and gave me some great coverage - also shown in two coats. Overall, it's a fantastic duo! And the thermal shift is very strong and looks beautiful with the topper. Wish I could have gotten a good picture of it >.< Damn you Phoenix heat!!
The duo is sold out on the Elevation site, but IS still available on the Pahlish site here :)
What do you think of this duo? Did you pick one up yourself?
The Merchant's Son is gorgeous! I love the colour and the subtle holo effect!

ReplyDeleteI saw your mani on facebook this morning and totally fell in love! I think I'm definitely going to set aside and get myself this duo.
ReplyDeleteOhh wow, that Elevation polish is beautiful! I love those rhinestone/studs too!

ReplyDeleteuhhh those macros are to die!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and I love the accents! This duo is full of win!
ReplyDeleteThis duo is beautiful and go so well together!
ReplyDeleteI would say lovely couple ! :)
ReplyDeleteLoved the way you combined both together to make such lovely manicure.
ReplyDeleteThese are so pretty and I love the art you did with them!
ReplyDeleteI cannot love that combo enough!
ReplyDeleteShannon and Lulu are amazing together. This is such a gorgeous duo. Love the nail art you did with it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful swatches! I should get mine next week, I never miss a Pahlish monthly duo!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE this duo!
ReplyDeleteLOL @ wtf! This is a gorgeous duo too, I can't get enough of flakie polishes like that!
ReplyDeleteMmm those flakies. I will never ever get tired of those
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty mani! Those flakies are stunning!
ReplyDeleteI've been on the fence about this one. I almost ordered it last week and then changed my mind. While I love the finish on the Elevation half of the duo, I have other flakies (including on from Pahlish) that are too similar. I'm trying to cut down on buying polishes that are similar.
ReplyDeleteThis duo is crazy beautiful together. And your meme at the beginning made me laugh out loud!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful duo!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful swatches! They are beautiful in their own right but they compliment each other nicely as well! I think I am ready for warmer colors though so I'm not sure I'll be picking it up.
ReplyDeleteGreat duo! Beautiful swatches!
