I have for you today an unexpected but amazing combination.
I was wearing Dollish Polish Expecto Patronum and the next day was looking through my drawers to see what I could wear next, and I spotted my Max Factor Fantasy Fire, that I have worn before (again these manis were in with the lost photographs) and I decided to see how it would look over a lighter colour.
The purple base of Fantasy Fire turned Expecto Patronum a lovely lilacy colour, and as Fantasy Fire is quite sheer, you could still see the blue glitter through it. The only thing I did notice, is the green shift of FF was not noticeable at all, this might have had something to do with the lighter base, as I did see it before when worn over a darker colour.
This is 2 coats of Fantasy Fire over my previous mani of Expecto Patronum (shown alone here) and 1 coat of the Shield.
Fantasy Fire is available in Boots and Superdrug and seems to be in stock on both of their sites at the time of writing this, but as far as I am aware this is limited edition and is available in the UK only. I know even when Fantasy Fire was first released I was not able to get it in my local store or on the sites but thankfully the ever sweet Esther of FabFingertips was nice enough to send me one.
Thanks for looking <3

Dollish Polish Expecto Patronum
Today I have for you all another pretty from Dollish Polish, Expecto Patronum.
I have recently received my second order from Dolly so figured should really get round to showing you the others from my first order from back in December.
Expecto Patronum, is inspired by Harry Potter, and correct me if I'm wrong but the first time I remember this spell being mentioned was in Prisoner of Askaban, now I am going on the film timeline here, as even thought I have the books sitting there, I have not managed to get round to reading them yet.
But anyway, I love the HP films, and love this polish Dolly has created based on the Patronus Charm, which is a milky white polish with different sizes of blue glitter, and a very subtle shimmer running through it too. Looking on the Dollish Polish site and Facebook, Expecto Patronum now seems to have been reformulated with even more glitter, and from pictures I've seen the glitter looks more green than blue. But in my opinion, both versions are super pretty.
So here you have it, with 1 coat of the Knight, 3 of Expecto Patronum and 1 of the Shield.

Dollish Polishes can be purchased from her site here, unfortunately I think quite a few items are out of stock at the moment, including Expecto Patronum but if you keep an eye on Dollys Facebook page you should get an idea of when the next re-stock will be. Oh and also keep an eye on Dollys blog, as she will post her own swatches and sometimes also sneak peeks of new shades.
Thanks for looking <3
