Hello my pretties!!
I have the third and final new shade in the Sinful Colors About Blooming Time display. Today's shade is called Standing Bloom Only.
Let's begin with the name. You guys. I have no idea what the name means, I guess it's word play on "standing room only"? I don't get the connection, I am sure I am missing something here! It's these little things that remind me I am not a native English speaker, I can't tell you the number of pop culture references that go over my head on a daily basis, I don't even know! (OMG Yadi, get back on track girl! )
Okay, so Standing Bloom Only! We have a bright red-orange base with different sized red and small gold glitter.
You are looking at three coats, plus topcoat.
I decided to throw in this picture of Standing Bloom Only sans topcoat. As you can see, there is zero "squishy" factor by itself, which leads me to declare it a creme base with glitter vs. a jelly or even a crelly.
You know what I feel like? I feel like bizarro Goldie Locks with these three new shades: the first one was just perfect! The second, a little too sheer; the third, a little too pigmented. That said, the truth is all three of these polishes are very pretty and totally worth the $1.99 price tags!
Until Next time!

No, don't worry, I don't get the name either, haha! A really interesting shade, though!
ReplyDeleteHi Cait! :) Whew! lol It happens a LOT! <3 I think Jessica's explanation makes sense though!
DeleteI love this color, this is another one I picked up. As far as the name, the only thing I can think of is that usually in a field of flowers that are blooming, they're all squished together? Kind of like in a theater with Standing Room Only.
ReplyDeleteThat blooming fields explanation makes absolute sense, thank you! <3 I am really happy SC is exploring these unusual type of shades!
DeleteI don't get the connection either other than that bloom rhymes with room and bloom fit the spring theme.
