Ellagee ~ Whirling Dervish



Ellagee ~ Whirling Dervish
Moss green base packed with golden shimmer and copper microflakes

Today’s polish is a custom that my dear friend Carolyn had made in two copies: One for her and one for me. It’s a super pretty polish packed with shimmer and flakes but it’s also really hard to describe colour-wise. Is it green? Is it gold? Or perhaps a colour in between? I’m not quite sure.

Let me show you the final mani first:

 
I mean, look at that? Doesn’t that just look good? This next photo reveals the green base even more.

The stamp is from GoGo Only’s St. Happy, that Carolyn also sent me a while ago. She’s such a gem!

Before I stamped, I dapped a very few glitters onto the Whirling Dervish. I used Layla’s CE55 for that purpose.


Here’s Whirling Dervish on its own. I used two easy coats for my mani and the drying time was really good. 


Here are the polishes I used, including Moyra's stamping topcoat.


This is the video by Kalander that the polish was inspired by:
