*Press Sample*: Ellagee's "Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler"

***PRESS SAMPLE***

Happiest of Hump Days to you all!  I've got a gorgeous Mardi Gras themed polish to show you today from Ellagee!  This polish is a beautiful purple jelly packed with green and purple glitters of various sizes, and large gold holographic circle glitters.  It's an eye full of FUN!  And I added a little nail art, too ^_^

Here is "Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!"







Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler (I totally spelled that wrong the first time on Instagram :P ) is such an awesome jelly glitter - definitely one of my favorites!!  The application was super smooth, no glitters clumped together, and I didn't have to fish for the large circle glitters!  Dried in a good amount of time, and mostly opaque at 2 coats, as I am wearing in the photos (no undies!).  An all-around perfect polish, especially for Mardis Gras!  The best part about ordering this polish now is that Ellagee is (while supplies last) packaging the polish in a gold bad and including a Mardis Gras dubloon that has a mystery code on it for your next purchase!  Woohoo!!

Regarding the art, I was inspired to draw a Mardi Gras mask (oh, shocker!).  I used my M.A.S.H. gold nail art pen to draw the mask, and painted some swirls in purple and green with acrylic paint.  I then placed black caviar beads around the border of the mask, and silver and gold beads over the green and purple swirls :)  My first time working with caviar beads - actually wasn't nearly as bad as I had thought it would be!  Had to wear my magnifying readers though, or my face would have been plastered in my nails :P

So what do you think??  Are you a fan of jelly glitters?  Does this polish scream MARDI GRAS! to ya?? :D  If so, you can purchase Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler here!

Thanks for stopping by ^_^  See you soon! <3
