Today, I have yet another pretty thing that's been languishing untried for far too long: Elevation Polish Mount Cangyan:

This was one of those purples that both my regular and cell phone cameras REFUSED to capture with any color accuracy. IMHO, it's a royal purple, nowhere near as blue as the bottle shot above.

Now, everyone else's description of this (including the maker) has it as a shimmer polish opaque in 2 coats. This is 3, and as you see, it's a glossy, glassy jelly, with VNL in most lighting. The only thing I can figure is that despite my thorough shaking, it's settled out a lot? Despite the sheerness, the formula was lovely - perfect thickness, easy to work with, flawlessly self-leveling.

The thing that makes this one special is the gorgeous coppery red shimmer. In the right light, it's got this lovely glow that's the closest my budget is likely to come to Cirque Coronation.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars. Here's hoping I can get it more opaque next go-round!
Where to buy:
direct from Elevation, or
from Llarowe.
