Saint George

Posted in a-England by

This might just be my favorite a-England ever!  And I love a-England.  I wanted Saint George for probably six months before I finally bought it, and then it just sat in my helmer (I did take it out and look at it every few days).  I don’t know why I waited so long to wear this, but when I finally put it on the other day, it was magic.

Saint George is a gorgeous teal base with a scattered holographic shimmer.  It’s just perfect.  I’m not really all that into holos (I know, shocker), but I cannot resist any of Adina’s creations.  This has just the right amount of sparkle, and the color itself is really something special.

I wish I could have captured the holo better, but my camera was being dumb and it was already getting dark.  Just imagine this with way more sparkles.

The formula on this was typical for a-Englands: ah-mazing.  If you haven’t tried any of them, you are seriously missing out.  This was… wait for it… one coat.  Yes, one coat.

If you haven’t already guessed, I LOVE Saint George! I also love a-England (and Adina and Tristam – her adorable cat).  Definitely a contender for my favorite polish (and brand) ever.  Ok, I need to stop because I could totally look at pictures of this all day and I actually have things to do.  Kind of.

Lady of the Lake

a-England is definitely one of my favorite brands right now.  Their formula is flawless, and their colors are vibrant and unique.  If you haven’t tried them yet, you’re missing out!

Lady of the Lake is one of the first a-Englands I bought in their sale a couple months ago.  It’s a gorgeous dark purple with blue undertones and a TON of holographic microglitter.  In dim lighting, they just look like silver sparkles, but this really comes alive in the light.  Gorgeous!

And here is a second, blurred picture so you can see the holo effect better.  Adina (the creator of a-England) definitely didn’t skimp on the glitter!  I also bought Tristam, which is pretty much the same with a navy base.  And check out the Legends collection if you love the holo.

Sorry my camera hates holos (and purples), but I had to show it anyway 🙂

a-England polishes are available directly from a-England, or from online retailers like Llarowe and Ninja Polish.  I recently bought the entire Gothic Beauties collection – which is amazing – and am planning on getting St. George and Bridal Veil next!

What’s your favorite a-England?
