Stash Swatch Initiative: Essence Space Queen

Hello!

Another Essence polish swatched today. This is Space Queen.

Essence Space Queen. Indoors, artificial light, no flash.
Space Queen was an impulse buy. It looked so pretty in the bottle, so I had to have it! It is simply a ton of small, iridescent glitter in a lightly tinted base. The base is too sheer to reach opacity, but I think that base color is what really appealed to me. I wanted to get this to look as much like the bottle as possible on the nail, so I layered it over yesterday's Peach & Cream. This is one coat of Space Queen over yesterday's swatch plus one coat of Seche Vite. The formula was okay -- no issues to report.

This is simple and pretty. It will add a nice, subtle bit of sparkle to any mani. The iridescent glitters like to hide in most lighting conditions, but they really show up nicely outside in natural, not direct light. Check out the pretties in the shade!

Like yesterday's Essence polish, this one was purchased at Ulta.
