Elevation Polish Gradient!

Hello readers! I have a special post for you today. I have to say that I've met some wonderful ladies in the polish world since I've started blogging and it amazes me how generous they can be. I recently met Lulu from Elevation Polish in one of my Facebook nail groups and when she found out that our soon-to-be-born baby boy was named Owen, she generously offered to send me her Owen polish as a baby gift! I was shocked and excited because once I'd heard that she had an Owen named polish, I've wanted it! Well, my package arrived this weekend and she also included a mini of Ama Dablam(it means "mother's necklace" and is named after a story widely told in Nepal, about a mother and her loving arms) as well as some baby goodies! Such a sweetheart!

Lets check out some bottle shots of these gorgeous polishes together. They were just screaming to be worn together!




I didn't want to just do Ama Dablam over Owen because I wanted the gorgeous shimmer of Owen to be shown as well so I decided on gradient glitter tips. They accentuated my short nails and I think I prefer glitter gradients when I have longer nails, but I still loved how these were and wore them all weekend!



I just LOVE the copper round glitters that look just like freshly made pennies! They are my favorite part of Ama Dablam.

Added this one in, because who doesn't love an awkward double bottle pic?

I used:
Orly Nail Defense
2 coats of Elevation Polish Owen
Elevation Polish Ama Dablam and a makeup sponge for the gradient tips
1 coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast

These two polishes are just gorgeous and I feel so lucky to have met a sweet friend who sent them to me in honor of my Owen. Thank you so much, Lulu!!
