Rainbow Heart

 Today as a first post I'm going to post about the what I would consider "signature" polish of my Sailor Moon collection, Rainbow Heart. 

I really love Sailor Moon - it was that pivotal anime for me as a kid - full of hope and love and all that gibberish. Somehow my love for it has persisted. 

I've been into nail polish for a few years, and when I discovered indies, I was hoping so much for a Sailor Moon set. But there weren't many and none that I though captured the feeling of the characters and was a deciding factor in me starting my line. 

For this polish, I did take inspiration from a lot of the transformations - basically how in her first one, she glows pink and has the sparkles. And I really wanted to convey the essence of my personal favorite henshin form, Super Sailor Moon.

Manga Super Sailor Moon is my absolute favorite - the watercolor like colors in the skirt and collar. 

Usagi also seems to be very girly and to like sparkles. Which is why I also chose pink instead of say, silver or gold. 

I think she'd really dig wearing the polish.
