Lynnderella She Lived In A Swamp
I suddenly got a craving for some glitter, and what could be better than Lynnderella glitter? I also have to try the rest of my Lynns soon, because I’ve already made another order at Llarowe, and Lynnderella has announced that a new collection called Lovely is as Lovely Does is coming soon! I’m so exited!
So I dove into my untrieds drawer, and the first bottle that spoke to me was Lynnderella She Lived In A Swamp. This is from the Halloween collection, and it’s a mix of “multiple sizes of sea green, chartreuse and mossy green hexagons and squares in a yellow green-gold base, as well as gold plus green holographic hexagons and olive microglitter.” Because the base is kinda sheer, I’ve layered it over Orly It’s Not Rocket Science.
This is what I’d call an “advanced” Lynnderella polish, it’s not as easy to love as for instance Love Potion No. 99 or Mercurial. At first, I wasn’t sure if I liked it or not, but it grew on me very quickly. Is it pretty? No. Is it unique, cool and awesome? A big YES!
It’s not the easiest polish to tame, I used two coats of SLIAS over the base color, and some of the bar glitter is very sticky-uppy. I used three coats of Gelous and one coat of Seche Vite, and that would have made it smooth if it weren’t for the aforementioned strings poking out. I had to use a pair of cuticle nippers to get rid of the stragglers, so beware that this swamp thing is an unwieldy one!
Are you as excited for the new Lynnderella collection as me? I just can’t wait to see what she’s come up with this time!

Det finns en anledning till att jag verkligen inte gillar strängglitter…
Annars är den vacker, den här. Fin grön. Jag är ändå glad att jag valde All Hallow’s Eve som är lite mer lätt att använda även om den också kräver sin man.
Hehe, ja, jeg måtte slåss litt med denne, men det ble forholdsvis bra til slutt.
Jeg fikk denne i posten i går, og er litt overrasket. Jeg syns den ser så mosegrønn og varm ut på bilder, mens min blir ganske glorete vårgrønn… Jeg elsker styggpene ting, altså, det er ikke det. Må eksperimentiere litt med bakgrunnsfarger, tenker jeg.
Jeg synes den forandrer seg etter hvilket lys man ser den i, og den endrer nok også litt karakter etter hva man legger den over også. En spennende lakk!
Denne var skikkelig kul!! Har endelig fått tak i noen Lynnderellas selv, men ikke alle er like lette å jobbe med:/ Men fine, det er de:) Gleder meg også til den nye kolleksjonen, blir spennende å se, spesielt nå som det er lettere å få tak i dem:)
Jeg gleder meg helt vilt til å se den nye kolleksjonen! Det er som kunstverk på neglene. <3
Kjempebra at det går an å kjøpe direkte fra Llarowe for oss i "utlandet" også, men synd for lommeboka.
I’ve only started getting into Lynderellas. This one’s lovely!
Then you have a lot to look forward to!
