Pahlish ~ Olea Europaea
Blackened olive holographic
with gold shimmer
This is the last of the Pahlish polishes from my box of untried for now.
Olive is not usually my colour, but I sometimes like to push myself a little
bit colourwise, so it won’t all end up in teal and purple here.
Anyway, the formula is good, I didn’t encounter any problems with
application at all. I used two easy coats for full coverage, and drying time is
also pretty good.
Here’s what Olea Europaea is all about; two coats and no topcoat, the
picture is taken with flash:
The rainbows are so pretty!
The holo effect is quite strong in this polish, I like that!
Here’s what the polish look like in my light box:
I decided that I might as well mix it with two other colours outside my
comfort zone: Gold and yellow. I might as well take it all the way, right? I
made dots in various sized from the base of my nails and halfway down. I topped
it with topcoat and here’s my final mani.

And from a different angle to show off the rainbows:
The flash almost killed the look of the gold. Let me turn that down for
you:
And here are the three polishes I used:
I’m not quite sure that I’m going to keep Olea Europaea yet. I mean, I
can see that I actually can wear it, but question is - am I going to?
Decisions, decisions…

WOW olive and gold and pastel yellow might not be your colors (or so you say), but this looks amazingly well on you!
