| Pahlish Continually Smoldering |
Please overlook the fact that my hand in the above picture looks like I've been playing with a tub of Country Crock and feast your eyes on this glittery and mysterious stuff. Continually Smoldering is described as a "black jelly base with red shimmer, red dots, holographic red squares, and scattered iridescent orange hex."

You can see the holo glitter in the bottle shot. I layered 2 coats Continually Smoldering over a coat of Sally Hansen Black Out, but you can wear it on its own.

I really love this polish...it's another one of those that is exactly as you picture it when you read the name. When you look at it, it's like looking into a dying fire...it's dark and cold... and then you see the warm, glittery flicker. I love black polishes period, but I love them even more when they have so much depth.

I haven't seen the latest incarnation of The Great Gatsby, but my stepdaughter told me it had a rather peculiar soundtrack. I'll just stick with the polish. :)
The only downside to this polish is typing the name...I can't seem to stop typing "smokering." Pahlish can be purchased on Etsy and Llarowe.
Thanks for stopping by, and have a lovely evening! :)
Yep, it looks exactly like you explained - great job! I saw The Great Gatsby and it was really good! ...although, I haven't read the book - so it's probably NOTHING compared to the book.
ReplyDeleteThanks! :) Hannah said it really only had one major difference in it...but when she said it had Jay-Z music, I was like uh, I'll have to pass...I don't think there were rappers with the flappers...
DeleteI'm not good at picking out who sings what (so didn't know it was Jay-Z), but I agree, the music was very "now" and didn't really go along with that time period. BUT, I thought it was kindof cool, in a way. I recommend it. How about I dare you to go see it and tell me what you think ;)
DeleteHeh heh... I will let you know if I can talk my hubby into it. :)
DeleteGo by yourself like I do. I LOVE going to movies by myself:)
DeleteReally? That's something I never do...we'll have to meet in Ohio sometime and go to the movies!! :P
DeleteOkay then Melissa...I DOUBLE DARE you to go to the movie by yourself. I would be so proud of you!
DeleteThis looks great! Love dark colors with glitter in them :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Miss Lisa! I do love glittery black! :)
DeleteThis is really pretty! I saw The Great Gatsby and thought it was really good. But the soundtrack definitely as interesting.
ReplyDeleteLOL...interesting huh? :) Thanks, I do love this polish. :D
DeleteWowza, love it! Usually glitter manis are all bright and happy, but I like the darker version as wel, very pretty!
ReplyDeleteXoXo
A fellow Melissa :-)
YAY!! Never too many Melissas, right? Unless they go by "Missy", which has always been strictly forbidden as far as I'm concerned, LOLOL! :D And YES...I love dark and vampy glitter! It makes me happy.
DeleteCountry Crock, heheh... STOP PLAYING WITH YOUR FOOD, MELISSA!! rofl. I haven't seen the movie, either, but I'd like to. I'm totally not into period pieces but the fact that it's a Baz Luhrman compels me. The polish is gorgeous and I LOVE your ring!
ReplyDeleteHeheh...thank you! I tried to be era-authentic. And what in the world...no period pieces?? I *totally* would have pegged you as a British drama gal...totally. Are you still having trouble getting into Downton Abbey? I was into that stuff ages before it was fashionable. I would say I was born in the wrong era, but Zoya hadn't been invented in 1815. :P
DeleteIt's so dark and pretty! I love the bottle shot.
ReplyDeleteThank you Miss Clare! It makes me feel so mysterious. :P
DeleteHi Melissa, your timing to show us Continually Smoldering is just perfect, Llatowe will restock it tonight (I hope) and I have been ogling it just some minutes ago longingly. Your photos are beautiful and this polish looks perfect on you. I hope your office move goes well!!! I moved offices over Christmas last year so I totally can envision the work you had to do on top of your daily tasks ;-) - I hope you will have a relaxing weekend <3
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine!! I did get a little rest this weekend. :) Oh...so you've been ogling this polish huh? It is really nice, one of those glowing polishes...it really does look like a pile of smoldering black ashes. :)
DeleteThis is so pretty and has so much depth! Mysterious is a great way of describing it. :)

Thank you Yun! :) Mysterious polishes I like...mysterious people just annoy me. LOL!! :D
DeleteThis is a perfect winter polish :)
