unfortunately... this story has a tragic plot twist. my dear postal service decided to be royal buttheads and somehow the polish bottle ended up breaking in transit!
it was apparent the second i got within a few feet of the package that something had gone terribly wrong. i smelled that all too familiar smell of polish and i PRAYED that what i had thought happened, hadn't. turns out it did. Ange remarked that it looked like they had played kick-ball with the package! for real, that's a shatter, not just a break! but miracuously, the polish was still wet enough to quickly paint with, so i set out at record speed to salvage a mani with this fallen soldier. here is the result.
because of the inability to mix the polish a bit before i painted, and having to take "dips" from different sections of the pool, the color differs from one finger to the next, but OH WELL, it's still awesome! this is an light orange holo, the likes of which i've never seen before. very pretty and i mourn the loss. i've named my late hero orange-a-tan, cos when i was little i thought you pronounced the word "orangutan" like orange-y-tan for some reason (i was special huh). and orangutans are so damn cute! case in point:
