Zoya for Rolando Santana Event + a HUGE Giveaway!
As you all may remember, a little over a week and a half ago, I live-blogged the awesome Zoya event at the Rolando Santana showroom to celebrate the collaborative "Alegre" collection. It really was an awesome event and I had so much fun!
Here's a recap of all the awesomeness and some exclusive photos from the event, as well as a look at the visionary behind Zoya Nail Polish.

Pebbles Takes Morristown
Today's post is a very bittersweet one. For those of you who have been following me for a while, you may remember that I have been raising a puppy for The Seeing Eye in Morristown, the oldest guide dog organization in the United States. She is a black labrador retriever named Pebbles and was placed with me on Valentine's Day 2012.

Hurricane Sandy Polish Fundraiser
Hi, everyone! It has been a long time since I was able to post on here. Thank you for all of your kind words of support as we work through Day 7 of no power or heat in my house! I was very fortunate to incur very little damage to my home, with only one tree falling away from our house and a few lost shingles/pieces of siding.
However, it is horrifying to see the devastation only a few miles away from me at the Jersey Shore. The Jersey Shore and areas of Staten Island, Queens, Manhattan, and many other places were decimated by Sandy. While I'm unable to currently travel to these areas at daylight to volunteer because law school has resumed for me, and they are scheduling us for weekends to make up for days lost, I wanted to do my part and raise money to help those in need.
Subsequently, I have created two holographic shades that I'm now selling called Empire Strong and Jersey Strong, with 100% of the profits going to two government-verified charities. The money will be evenly divided between the Sandy NJ Relief Fund and the Mayor's Fund for Hurricane Sandy Relief.
I apologize for the lackluster photos, but as my power is out, all I have at my disposal is my iPhone. I will post better ones when my power returns. For some reason, Blogger is making the photos a little wonky. However, they are accurate on the store page.
Empire Strong is an icy blue linear holographic polish.
Jersey Strong is an electric emerald green linear holo polish.
Empire Strong and Jersey Strong are sold in full-sized, 15 mL bottles for $15 each on the Princess Polish Online Store. If you purchase both bottles, any additional bottles of either ship for free. $1.50 is flat rate for the Hurricane Relief polishes. :-D
I know that these bottles are more than my regular LE shades, but my goal is to ensure that each bottle sold ensures at least $5 goes to each charity. I hope that you understand. :)
Please be sure to pass this along to friends and share on Facebook. I promise to update you with our fundraising progress with each passing day!
With love, gratitude, and well wishes,
Princess Polish

ANNOUNCING: The Must Be Jelly Collection by Princess Polish
I'm INCREDIBLY EXCITED today to officially announce the launch of my own line of indie polishes called... what else... Princess Polish!
The first collection consists of five holo jelly shades that are perfect for spring and summer called Must Be Jelly.
WARNING: This is going to be majorly pic heavy!
Here is a shot of the mini bottles, which were what I used to officially formulate the collection. I'm in the process of making labels and decorating the caps, but I couldn't wait to show you all. From left to right, there is Strawberry Jam, Mint Jelly, Grape Jelly, Orange Marmalade, and Blueberry Jam.
Here is Strawberry Jam, Mint Jelly, Grape Jelly, and Orange Marmalade in the shade.
And here they are in artificial light. Unfortunately, we're in the first few days of a week of rain here in Jersey, so I couldn't get a sunlight pic. But will post one to my Facebook page as soon as the sun rears her head again!
In case you were in need of more sparkly, holo goodness, here are close ups of each shade!
Blueberry Jam, a bright blue linear holo jelly.
Grape Jelly, a rich purple linear holo jelly.
Orange Marmalade, a bright tangerine scattered holo jelly.
And last, but not least... Strawberry Jam, a rich magenta holo jelly.

The shades are currently available for pre-order here for the next 48 hours (through 11:59pm EST Wednesday), as part of a Facebook and Princess Polish reader exclusive! It is $5 per shade for a mini bottle (5mL), $8.50 for a full sized bottle (15mL), $22.50 for the Mini Collection (5 bottles), and $40 for the Full Sized Collection.
After that, the shades will be available on a permanent basis through the Princess Polish Store on Storenvy starting in the middle of June.
So what do you all think of my babies? I've been working so hard on them and I'm dying to know what you all think! I'm going to be updating my page with bottle shots once they're decorated and labeled, so stay tuned!
With much love,
Princess Polish
