How Can You Ignore A Dragon?


Hello, Fireflies!

Today's Golden Oldie challenge is to wear a polish that's been ignored for too long.


Enchanted Polish Dragon Spit was probably the first EP I bought.  I had no idea how popular the brand would become, or that this polish would appreciate in value so much. 


I'm sure there are other polishes out there now that can approximate this one, but I'd forgotten how gorgeous this particular polish was.  Such a fiery reddish-orange.  And, I admit, I love the name.


Is there a polish or a makeup item in your kit that's been ignored for too long?  What are you thinking about digging out of your stash?  If you take a pix, I'd love for you to share it on my Facebook wall!

  2. This is such a beauty!

    I dug out one of the first polishes I bought when my big polish interest started about three years ago.

    1. I started to keep a few to the side that are my 'favorites' to remind me to use them again. Problem is, there are getting to be too many 'favorites'!

    1. I think I've seen your hair a fiery red-orange, too, yes? If not, I think it would look fab on you. Why has no one made a holo hair color yet?

    1. Seeing how we both live in warm areas, I know that being on your toes means it would still be seen - because this polish is too beautiful to hide in shoes! lol

  11. I need to explore more indie nail brands- they always have the prettiest polishes!

    1. Mainstream brands are catching up with some of the glitter trends, but they haven't really done much with holos lately or flakies. Some of the most unique polishes I own are Indies, for sure. For the uninitiated, I recommend starting with Girly Bits and KBShimmer - they have some of everything, and have been around long enough to be stable.

    1. Be prepared to go on the hunt, and pay through the nose. I've heard tales of this polish going for upwards of $100, sometimes over $200.

    1. When it's done right, there are few polishes more spectacular than a red holo.

  14. That red is fabulous! To answer your question, yeah I do have some makeups that were unintentionally ignored. Shame, shame, shame!

    1. Seeing what I have of your stash, that *is* a shame! I just want to roll around in your stash. Especially the lippies. I just want to hold a Tory Burch lippie. Just for a little while. I promise I'll give it back.
