Essence Fruity One Kiwi A Day Swatch And Review

I hope all you ladies had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday, as a daughter or as a mother.  I myself had an interesting day - LO woke me up super early so I was tired, but DH tried his best to make me happy by getting me my favorite foods and taking me out for a nail haul.  LO also kept me up late because she had trouble sleeping - I guess she didn't want this day to end!

I have another prize polish that I received from Pollia Polish's giveaway by the lovely Ceitie, and that is Essence One Kiwi A Day from the Fruity collection.  I'd been lemming this polish forever and couldn't find a way of getting it here in the states.  I was so excited to see that she included this in my package and tonight(this morning) I've got swatches of it for you.  I used the coats and had no trouble with clumping of the glitter, however there was some patchy spots in the cream hence three coats instead of two.  It's a lime green cream with dark green mini glitters to mimic kiwi fruit.  Love!  No topcoat in these pics.

I really love the way this looks... I can't help but love myself an ugly green polish and the tiny green glitter makes it more awesome than I thought possible.  Now I need to figure out how to get the rest of the Fruity collection, LOL.

And finally, the mani as I'll be wearing it, and that's with a semi-successful water marble with China Glaze Lemon Fizz and For Audrey.  Not bad for my bazillionth try!  Maybe it's because I had the windows open this time.

Sorry for the crappy cleanup - I used tape but it's really late and my eyes are ready to cross from being up so long today.  Overall, I'm happy with the way it turned out!  Hi five myself!  Have you watermarbled before?  If so, please feel free to drop me suggestions, thanks!!

    1. thanks dear! xoxo. I want to try some other polishes for marbling but it seems like only the runny ones work best for me. I will keep practicing!
