Iconic Effect Tortoiseshell

Today I am showing you my beautiful custom polish, made by Kelly and Kerrie at Iconic Effect. I was SO lucky to win a giveaway which included a polish of  my choice from their range (I chose their Extreme Holo top coat) and a custom polish. On the day of this exciting win, I was actually wearing Iconic Effect Turtle Shell, and as I lay in bed thinking what would I like, I thought, something similar to Turtle Shell but more autumnal in tone.
What they came up with is this stunning beauty, russet brown hexes, bright pink squares, plum squares, small magenta hexes, gunmetal and gold hexes and tiny weeny red and brown glitter - I think that's everything!!
I dithered for a while whether to do my first mani using this over a dark red, or what I eventually chose, Leighton Denny Graycious. I felt that this lovely polish deserved a bit of a contrast, it blended beautifully with the likes of Nails Inc Victoria, but the russet reds and deep pinks stand out so well against the lovely dark grey of Graycious. (I also swatched it over Femme Fatale and it looked gorgeous!)
I love this, love that is special because its custom made and it is just so stunning! Kelly and Kerrie really did make me something utterly beautiful, thanks girls!!
