Baroness X has been making some truly amazing creations as one-and-done batches, sold as the monthly mystery polish.

Bifrost, the June 2017 mystery polish, is a pale icy blue that leans only very subtly toward aqua. There's a delicately sparkling linear holo effect in there, plus an overlay of a 230/UP "sister" type shimmer pigment that tilts from the sort of fuchsia-pinky that my camera mostly refuses to see properly over to a soft minty green.

The green flash + the delicate holo effect is above, while the pink flash seen in direct light is below (though, again, IRL the pink was more dramatic):

Bifrost had a perfectly lovely formula that went on smoothly at 2 coats and proceeded to wear very nicely for the several days I had it on.

I've stamped here first with white stamping polish using a full-nail snowflake design from Kads 005, then put a small accent snowflake in Llarowe's CBL Addicts Blue Me Away using the tiny individual snowflakes from the same plate. There's 10 tiny snowflakes in all on the plate... coincidence? Certainly not!

Rating: Bifrost is a gorgeously wintry 4 out of 5 stars that would also work out super for easter egg designs anywhen in the springtime. Good formula, nice wear time, a keeper for sure.
Where to buy: Fortunately, at the end of the year there's a chance of things being brought back for a greatest hits sale, so keep your eyes peeled for that announcement soon! Otherwise, stalk destashes & blog sales.
