Pick and Mix Challenge

Hello! 🙂

Pick and Mix Brown and Book

Pick and Mix Brown and Book

The prompts for this weeks pick and mix challenge mani are Brown And Book. I really had a hard time thinking of something to combine the prompts!

I decided on trying illuminated manuscript (it’s close enough to a book)!

An illuminated manuscript is a parchment or book where the page is decorated with silver, gold and other dyes.

If your interested here’s the wikipedia page on illuminated Manuscripts. 🙂

This polish is a lovely warm golden metallic, It really is amazingly shiny!  The formula is lovely and flowed easily from the brush. There are a few brush marks but with slightly more careful application than mine this could be minimized 🙂

Because it’s a limited edition and in aid of a wonderful charity it makes this polish that little bit more special! 😀
