First Llarowe order part 2, A England

Cheerio! Today I have the second half of my first Llarowe order, A England's Tristam Eyes Princess Sabra. This is my very first A England polish and I must say it is bloody fantastic!

I was looking through Llarowe and this polish caught my eye again and again. In the pictures on Llarowe's website, Tristam Eyes Princess Sabra is a golden linear holo. It is beautiful. Their exact description is, "Gorgeous deep golden taupe holographic nail polish".

Imagine my surprise when I unwrapped Princess Sabra and found she is not, in fact, deep golden taupe, but olive green khaki. Still holographic, still gorgeous, but olive green...not gold. Her holo is also not as pronounced in my pics or in person as the pictures on Llarowe's website. But again, she's beautiful and unique to my collection so I wasn't totally disappointed. I also wore her for 3 days :-)



All in all, my first experience ordering from Llarowe was so-so. I will definitely Google pictures of any polishes I want to purchase from there before buying, as the pics for both the polishes I bought were misleading. I did get unique polishes to add to my collection, but they weren't exactly what I was looking for, and had I known that I wouldn't have purchased these particular ones.

Olive polish,
