Unless you've been living under a rock, you heard the rumors that nail art was finally coming to TV! Earlier this year, Chalkboard Nails and JulieG posted behind the scenes photos of the show, the judges, and that fantastic set of nail polish walls. I have met and absolutely love both women, so it's been fun to see the journey!

colors by llarowe At Last

Press Sample 

Today I have colors by llarowe At Last to share with you. I feel like the polish name describes me a lot right now because I feel like "At Last" some things are falling into place. Back in March, Mr. PG and I found out we were expecting a little girl. Sadly, in April, she was gone and I was filled with lots of sadness. We currently have a 7 year old and while we love him dearly, we were looking forward to expanding our family. Well, last month I found out that we are expecting again. I had quite a scare on my way to NYC for Fashion Week (official term was "threatened miscarriage") and while I'm not totally out of the woods yet, I did have some needed doctor's ordered bed rest to help my body try and reorient itself. Baby Emery is due May 2, 2015 and we are cautiously, happily awaiting his or her arrival.

But back to the polish. While at Cosmoprof North America, Leah Ann LaRowe, the owner of colors by llarowe gave out great gift bags with her newest collections - The Show Me Collection and Emily's Imagination. At Last is from Emily's Imagination and it's this crazy awesome purple blue teal multichrome holographic polish.

I used a base coat of Cult Nails Get It On, 2 coats of polish and finished with Digital Nails Ain't Nobody Got Time For That. Top coat did not dull the polish at all. The first coat of polish was a little thin but the second coat made it nicely opaque.


See what I mean in the sun? The purple comes out to play along with the holographic goodness.


Meanwhile in the shade, you lose the holo but this lovely blue starts to peek out and give it this lovely duochrome look. Best part - no need to wear a base color under... again this is just 2 coats of polish!

Finally inside with the flash, you can see the teal coming through strongly. It's a gorgeous color to wear and I can't wait to put it on again and play with some nail vinyls.

Colors by Llarowe are available through the Llarowe website and range in price from $6 to $12. You can also like it on Facebook, follow on Pinterest, and follow on Instagram.
