Forget Me Not Friday: HARE POLISH - Archipelago 2.0

Hare Polish Archipelago 2.0

Congrats, you made it to FRIDAY! And I made it to Forget Me Not Friday, yay me! I don't purchase much indie polish anymore (I gotta get the storage sitch figured out haha) but I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for some Hare Polish. This I'm reviewing today is Archipelago 2.0. When I discovered Hare Polish before their "comeback", Archipelago was the ONE polish I knew I had to have so I was STOKED when 2.0 was made. Check it out below!

(For reference, here's a Polishaholic swatch of the original Archipelago). As you can see Archipelago has a more complicated look to it than the original, love it just the same. 2.0 is a "blue/teal jelly with copper hexes and squares, plus copper shimmer!" What's not to love about that freakin' color contrast? It's AWESOME. The newly added shimmer and squares give 2.0 a little more depth, which is what we're used to with Hare Polish.

I did 3 coats of Archipelago 2.0. Application of the jelly was nice, easy to apply. This polish was easy to build up to opacity. Longer nails will need more coats to kill VNL, of course. One thing I love about Hare Polish jellies: They don't take 10 years to dry.

POLISH INFORMATION

Brand: Hare Polish

At the moment, Archipelago 2.0 is sold out in her Etsy shop (haven't checked other etailers, I'm lazy LOL), but stay tuned to her Facebook if you're wanting this polish!

What do you think? Were you excited about this reboot? Or did you like the original better?

Butter London Shine Out Loud Polish & Makeup Set

Hi guys! Today, I have something new to share with you. I'm sure you're pretty familiar with the brand Butter London. I'm a fan of their nail polishes, for sure. They also offer cosmetic items. I've been intrigued by their cosmetics in the past, but as someone who doesn't know what to do with makeup... I never tried it - UNTIL TODAY!

The Shine Out Loud products I'm reviewing for you today were created to give a "lacquer-like shine with high-fashion colour" to create a bold eye, statement lip and nail look. Check out these products (plus a giveaway) after the jump!
