I have recently realized I have very few "Spring" colors among my indie collection. I've been looking forward to Spring for awhile (fun fact: it's my favorite season!), so I felt the need to put something Spring-y on my nails. Read on for more info about the combo I chose!

Bear Pawlish It's A Tiny Shoe stamped with MPolish Fresh Perspective |
Mpolish is a press sample. All other polishes purchased by me.
I was not compensated for this review. All opinions are my own.
Meanwhile, I have a few swatches for you of a Bear Pawlish as well as some nail art. I'm a bit sleepy right now, so I'll try to keep this short.
This is It's A Tiny Shoe by Bear Pawlish. This is a stunning turquoise/jade blue polish with a linear holo effect. It also contains green/blue micro glitter. The combo is breathtaking.

Bear Pawlish It's A Tiny Shoe, two coats no topcoat |
If there's one thing Tennessee, the maker of Bear Pawlish, does well it's holos. I think that's part of the draw to her brand. Every Bear that I own is just riveting, be it holos, multi chromes, glitters, everything!

Bear Pawlish It's A Tiny Shoe |
This was two easy, smooth coats topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top quick dry topcoat. I used It's A Tiny Shoe over a coat of Qtica Natural Nail Growth Stimulator and one coat OPI Nail Envy. I had zero staining issues with It's A Tiny Shoe.

Flash shot of Bear Pawlish It's A Tiny Shoe |
I've seen several of my friends pairing bold blues/teals with MPolish Fresh Perspective, so I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon. What. A. Pair!!

Bear Pawlish stamped with MPolish Fresh Perspective |
I used my Uber Chic Beauty plate 1-01 for stamping, and MPolish Fresh Perspective from the newest collection, which is available now in single full sized bottles in limited quantities on her website.

Even Cindy was looking pretty good! ;-) |
This was a welcome mani after a humongous fail on the night that I did these. It was so late, and I almost gave up completely. I'm so glad I didn't, and that I chose this combo at the last minute.

Sunlight Shot! Bear Pawlish It's A Tiny Shoe and MPolish Fresh Perspective |
A little bit about MPolish if you haven't seen any of my previous posts. MPolish is a new indie stamping polish that is five-free, cruelty-free, and made in the USA. The color selection of MPolish is fantastic and the polish is so worth every penny. Since they are five-free (and have almost no scent to them, by the way!), you need to work a little faster than with standard stamping polish since it tends to dry a little quicker. But seriously, they are amazing and can also be used in other techniques besides just stamping, such as water marbling or even as a base polish (although they are thick since they are intended for stamping).

How do you recoup from a failed mani? Do you have a tried and true that you fall back on? Or do you skip nail art and just stick to a single polish mani?
When I have a fail I usually just go for a single polist manicure. I try to do a holo or a polish with something interesting about it. :0) This is a very nice combination!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great plan after a failed mani. Something with a pop, right? Thank you very much! =)
DeleteThis polish is stunning. Sunlight shot have come out perfect. I loved your stamping too so precise and neat :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Anita! I adored this polish in the sunlight. =)
DeleteThe colors go beautifully together. I've heard of Bear but I have yet to try them. I'm sure I'll change that at some point. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHehe, well, she's restocking soon! ;-) Thank you so much! I had seen similar color combos so thought I'd give it a shot and I'm glad I did!
Delete*jaw drop*
ReplyDelete*blush* Thanks!
DeleteThe color is so perfect and the sunlight photos! I'm stunned!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I definitely loved how the colors played off each other in the sunlight.
DeleteWow wow wow! What a pair indeed! I usually have a small cry in a corner to recover. Kidding. Dust yourself off and try again!
ReplyDeleteI totally just laughed out loud picturing that. I may have done the same. Lol. Thank you!!
DeleteSo much holo I think I'm drooling! You did a fantastic job on this.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Roselynn! I was very happy with the outcome after my terrible fail, lol.
DeleteIt's A Tiny Shoe is a STUNNER! I love Bear Pawlish too but had to skip the last restock, will definitely be getting my fix next month :D
ReplyDeleteSumeet, you and me both!! =D
DeleteI adore Bear Pawlish! I am a huge fan girl and Tennessee made one of my favorite polishes of all time, Bathory, the red holo that I use for my avatar on social media!
ReplyDeleteOMG, I HAVE THAT ONE!! Lol, I really need to use it soon. It is beautiful!
DeleteThat flash shot is to DIEEEEE for!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Pish!! I was definitely overjoyed when I took it!! Dat flame tho!!
DeleteSo pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Makenna!
DeleteFailed manis piss me off lol - often I'll try doing it again, and if it still fails, I'll do something very simple. Your mani is gorgeous!! I love these colors together!!
ReplyDeleteLol, I hear ya! Thank you! I was happy they played so well together! =)
