Road to Polish Con: Week 2 Nail Art

After swatching each of the RTPC polishes for Week 2, I wanted to see if the CBL would stamp.

Guess what, it does and it's so pretty!

I stamped with Vivid Lacquer plate 037 and I think the holo polish did a great job! These and the other RTPC polish launch tomorrow morning, Sunday 7/9!

Road to Polish Con: Fanchromatic, Lavish, and CBL

The Road to Polish Con is back as a preview for the September Polish Con event in Chicago. I am delighted to be involved again as both Director of the event and Official RTPC Blogger! If you missed the NYC Road to Polish Con, you can find photos and links here.

I and five other “official” Polish Con Bloggers and Swatchers are sharing each polish with you first! We'll adventure together down the Road to Polish Con every Thursday for a full eleven weeks.
The polishes release every Sunday morning at 9am eastern, will be available to order for one week, and then the shop is refreshed with different polishes for the next launch.

Some Like It Hot. Neon hot pink with blue shimmer.
Shown is two coats with topcoat. Fantastic formula as with all CBLs I've tried.
Photos are not color accurate - the actual color is like a neon pink highlighter with blue shimmer. On my screen, my photos lean more blue than the actual color.
