I placed an order a while ago and when it came there were two extra bottles hiding in the package. At first I thought it was a mistake, that was until I looked at the names of the polishes. Pam had sent me 2 gorgeous unreleased polishes - one called MiagiCat, after my facebook user name (I HATE facebook in real life and don't want anyone in real life to find me!) and one called OVbunEN, this was particularly touching as I am expecting a baby!
I decided I wanted to save them for a special occasion and what could be more special than my 20 week scan.
MiagiCat will be released by Girly Bits under the name of Elephant Shoe (when you mouth Elephant Show it looks like I Love You, how cute!). Pam said it's likely this version will be a tad bit darker than the version you see here. I would say this polish is a beautiful grey/lilac cream. I used 2 coat for this mani, as always with Girly Bits the formula was great and easy to work with.
OVbunEN is a really pretty soft pastel glitter with tons of different shapes in a clear base. The base is quite thick which is a great thing as the glitter spreads really easily over the nail and gives really good coverage. I used two coats of topcoat over this mani and it was really smooth, no gelous here!
I loved this mani and these polishes will always be special to me.
Elephant Shoe and OVbunEN will be released at the Girly Bits shop here on September the 15th. What a perfect baby shower gift for a mamma to be!
And here's my OVbunEN!
Oh goodness, how beautiful! And they work so perfectly together! Congratulations on the baby, what a perfect gift x
