#red-violet

*Purchased by Me*

Happy Monday! I hope you all had either productive or relaxing weekends (whichever you needed to have)! Mine was a little of both, although I didn't get around to packing for my vacation next week. I finished up the pre-broken nail photos last week, so welcome my nubby middle nail. (Post break, it's started to curve so in addition to growing it back out, I've got to work on straightening it out again too!)

Indie fan groups are a great source of sneak peaks and the latest news about your favorite indie polishes, and sometimes the maker creates a special polish for the group. Today, I've got the latest group custom from Ellagee for the Gee I Love Ellagee! Facebook group - Ella-gance.

Ella-gance is described as a "red linear holo with purple flakes" For me, the polish leaned more fuchsia than red.  But either way, it is a gorgeous and unique color. The formula was very good, a little on the thin side, but very workable. The first coat went on sheer, but I thought it was opaque with the second coat.  However, when editing these photos, I noticed that there was a little visible nail line from certain angles, so next time, I'll use 3 coats.  The last photo was to show the holo a little better.

So are you a member of any fan groups?  Do you have any group customs from them?  Don't forget to go check out Gee I Love Ellagee!!

Until next time,
