Weeelllll, my winter holiday themed month came to a crashing halt when I was so swoonily in love with this polish that I felt zero urge to stamp over it.

You'll notice some minor edge wear in a few of these pics - that's because I wore the utterly amazing Another Glorious Morning for a week straight. Quixotic Polish released this beauty as part of Polish Pickup's horror movies theme from September, and while I'll debate whether Hocus Pocus is horrific, there's no debate that this is one of my absolute fave magnetics.

Another Glorious Morning starts off with a deep hunter green base that ends up typically looking eggplant purple due to the load of shimmer packed in. On top of this, it has the type of high-sheen multichromatic magnetic shimmer that gives a 3D cat's eye effect with even medium intensity lighting. I'm wearing 2 coats here, with my super strong ring magnet held at a diagonal over the final and topcoat layers of the polish.

When viewed dead-on, this polish looks to be eggplant purple with a wave of frosty pink shimmer - this color combo was nearly impossible to photograph, so most all of my pics are showing somewhere along the green shift. Because hooo boy is that magnetic shimmer shifty, sliding from pink to silvery to moss green and on over to a blazing emerald.

YASSSS. This is the kind of magnetic that has nail muggles asking how on earth you got that look on your nails.

This color combo is festive as all get-out. Is it Halloween, Mardi Gras, autum harvest? All of the above for sure, and any other day you like.

Rating: a dead perfect 5 out of 5 stars. The formula was super easy to work with, this quite saturated green base didn't stain my cuticles at all, it wore amazingly well (especially for being such a dark color), and it's all 42 flavors of delicious. This is my first and only Quixotic, and I'm going to need to do something about that.
Where to buy: PPU is a one-and-done sort of show, so your best bet is to join the buy/sell PPU facebook group to hope someone destashes.
