The day is finally here! Today I get to reveal the color of the color I designed for Rescue Beauty Lounge!!
Here she is, Scrangie by Rescue Beauty Lounge. Please view the pictures full size!

Isn't it beautiful?! It's a medium blue-based purple with green iridescence and green microshimmer. It's a combination of my two favorite polish colors, purple and green. The green iridescence in this is mesmerizing. It sits on top of the polish like fairy dust, and it lights up to a bright, glowing green in the sunlight. It has a near-duochrome effect, and when I wear it I can't stop staring at it.
This polish has been almost a year in the making and it's been worth the wait. My original vision was to have a polish that mimics the color of a beetle's wing with a base of bold violet, something to capture the green and multichromatic iridescence of beetle shell or butterfly wing while sitting on a vivid purple flower. I made change after change after change, I'm very impressed with Ji Baek's patience and understanding! I was very picky with this polish, even making changes to it up to the very last minute! Ji has been so understanding and accomodating through this entire process and all my pickiness, I really have to thank her for all she's done. She's made my dream come true! So, Ji, if you're reading this, thank you for everything!
I am very happy with how it turned out. Sure, it's not the Scrangie version of Clarins 230 that I dream about every night (hahaha! Someday!) but it is MY polish, my dream, my fantasy... And drop dead gorgeous, to boot :) You won't find a color like this on any salon's shelves!
Scrangie by Rescue Beauty Lounge is part of Rescue Beauty Lounge's fall collection of limited edition blogger-designed polishes. The other polishes were designed by Stephanie of Polish Addict and Michelle of All Lacquered Up. These will be available soon on Rescue Beauty's website, and I'll be sure to keep you posted on availability!
After the other lovely bloggers reveal their creations, I'll have swatches of all three. I just know they're going to be awesome. Bloggers have good taste! ;-)
WANTZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteOk Scrangie, you are officially my nail polish hero.
ReplyDelete*bows head to her magesty with eternal gratitude and respect*
I have never actually aquired an RBL other than swapping for it. However, I will not flinch at buying one (ok, 2 let's be realistic, maybe two) bottles of this polish.
WOW! Seriously, that is the most gorgeous color! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteTotally STUNNING I am all over this one! Congrats it's amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and sooo exciting!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, it looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI have been fighting against the temptation to buy RBL. It's too expensive, over my price cap, etc. But now I HAVE to get this color. At least I'll have time to save up for a haul.
ReplyDeleteHi Scrangie!
ReplyDeleteIn the last six months, I have become obsessed with nail polish and have been fervently reading your blog to catch up. I consider it my favorite resource for all things nail related.
With this announcement of yours, I just couldn't be a silent reader any longer: this color is AWESOME! There is nothing like it and I cannot wait to place my order.
Thanks so much for the energy you put into your posts and for sharing your lovely nails with us readers.
Have a beautiful day! : )
I've been waiting, and soon I'll own my first RBL

It reminds me of Fyrinnae's Faerie Glamour eye shadow.
Love it!
Perfect!

Hi Scrangie, this is such a pretty color! I have just found out about you!! I know... I cannot explain that, especially when I have been nail-obsessed since shortly after I learned to walk!! I have to ask, and I am sure you have answered this a thousand times so please just direct me to where I can find the answer - how do you get your application so utterly perfect in the cuticle area??
ReplyDeleteWow... I can see me spending tooooo much time on nails from now on *grin*
That is just awesome!! Lovely colour, and amazing that you have a polish all your own ... :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely lovely! You deserve your very own color, and I love it.
ReplyDeleteI don't own any RBL polishes, solely because of cost, but dang I'm going to splurge on yours. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteOh. My. God. My jaw literally dropped open the second I opened your blog. WOW and THANKS, SCRANGIE!!!! Can't wait to own it!!
ReplyDeleteoooohh pretty!! you must be so thrilled that your vision worked out really well :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the color! It's so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhoa, that is AMAZING! Definitely have to get that when it's out! Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteI'd have bought it just so I could say, "I'm wearing Scrangie" but am overjoyed it's such a kick-ass color to boot!
ReplyDeleteThat is STUNNING. Amazing job! When that comes out, I'll place my very first RBL order. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's stunning!! So unique, a perfect reflection of you! ♥ it
ReplyDeleteyou guys are so fab!! congrats scrange! you did an awesome job. can't wait to get the whole collex and i haven't even seen them all! love ya girl!!
ReplyDeleteLove it~such a gorgeous color!
ReplyDeleteI think you're going to convert everyone to RBL. It's sooooo expensive for a polish BUT I have to have this. It's like the polish mermaids would wear if they wore polish...or were real :). AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteOh I Love, Love, Love! Congratulations! Such a beautiful polish colour :)
ReplyDeletewow! very beautiful and original!
ReplyDeleteYou have made a polish that consists of pure win!! I usually am not interested in RBL polishes, but I'm sooo getting this one :)
ReplyDeleteWow! This color sure is pertty!
ReplyDeleteOOOOOOhhhh Myyyy Gooooooood! She's amazing! I'm so excited!!!:D
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Scrangie!
ReplyDeleteI really expected a vampy, darkish color and am pleasantly surprised to see a lighter, brighter side of you!
The green shimmer seems reminiscent of BB Couture's but with the added duochrome green flash, it looks distinctly Scrangie!
That is just beautiful Scrangie! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, love the colour, very unique and very you. Congratulations on such an amazing opportunity.
ReplyDeleteI love it, it looks AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteWOW. I rarely buy RBL as I rarely wear the same color enough to justify buying a $18 polish, but this is so pretty I may not be able to stop myself from buying two. Way hot Miss Scrangie!!!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! Congratulations! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have words for how gorgeous this is, so I'm just going to agree with what everyone else said! I'll definately be picking up a bottle of Scrangie (that sounds so weird lol) when it comes out!!
ReplyDeleteAs I'm a sucker for duochrome nail polishes, I very love it. I can't buy it because RBL website requires like 50$ of shipment to my country but I would buy it if I could.
ReplyDeleteSexy, sexy, sexy, Scrangie! That's one of the most beautiful colors that I've ever seen on a woman!
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous! Would love to see each of you swatch all three as colours look so different against different skin tones. This is perfect though and I want it!
ReplyDeleteIt is gorgeous, straight up beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat is what I'd certainly call a stunner. It's so mesmerizing that you give it a double-take. You should be very proud of your creation! Congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's such a gorgeous color! And also very unique. I can't wait to pick mine up.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Scrangie!
ReplyDeletecongratulations. what an honor it must be for you to have a polish created for you! i've never tried rescue beauty lounge polishes, but i will now ;-) can't wait to try your new color!
ReplyDeleteAMAZING and Congrats!! You are awesome and so is that color!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning! *licks screen*
ReplyDeleteoh. my. she's a real beauty
ReplyDeletevery nice work scrangie :)
Oh. My. GOSSSHHH!! This color is downright fantastic!! Stunning, you have amazing taste! I will be getting this ASAP! Congrats on your first polish! xox
ReplyDeleteYour polish child has been born and she's a beauty. I will definitely be ordering one. I can't wait for her Christening! Congrats girl you deserve her.
ReplyDeleteI so love this colour. Great work!
ReplyDeleteThis was also what I thought all the time: A purple with green shimmer is what is missing in my nail polish collection.
Unfortunately here in Germany I don't have the opportunity to get RBL...
omg LOVE this color!!!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI love this polish! Great color. I have been reading your blog for a little bit and I enjoy it! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteScrangie!!!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted you to know this will be my first RBL.
I love it (and I think the name is really special)!!! You did a great job. Thanks for being so picky, it paid off!
Congrats!
(sorry for all the !! but, well woot!!)
I keep coming back...'cause it's sooo gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat, beautiful & GORGEOUS! The mix of colors is fascinating.
ReplyDeleteWantz! Sooooo beautiful!! Now how to get my hands on a RBL here in Holland :S Hhhmm...
ReplyDeleteExquisite! Do you know if it will be available for pre-order? If it mesmerizes me this much on my monitor, I can't even imagine how amazing it's going to be in person!
ReplyDeleteWell done dear Scrangie, well done!!! Congrats to you and to RBL for creating this beautiful polish :)
ReplyDeleteYOU GO GIRL!! It's TOO gor-jo.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be my first RBL, too!
Hi Scrangie,
ReplyDeleteLove the polish. I visited the RBL site to see if it's there,m but is' not.. :(
So, considering you have an extensive polish collection and connections with those who also have huge connections, can you think of any dupes to this colour: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24617799@N06/2400000003/ ?
I bought it while in Japan years ago but left it there and now that my polish obsession has resumed, I need it...!
Any suggestions would be welcome!
Thank you. :)
Wow, that's a beautiful color, Angie! I had no idea you were so into polish, but I really like your site. Great pictures! I'm excited for you.
ReplyDeleteWow wow wow just wow!
ReplyDeleteI will order that one, love it!!!
I love this color,but is it the same as Orly Rio Nights & Pure Ice Heart Breaker combine do you think you can do comparison swatches?
ReplyDeleteThat's bad ass. It makes me nostalgic.
ReplyDeleteI am the 111th person to this party (unfashionably late!). I am so excited for you. What a beautiful polish. A perfect choice. Can't wait to try it out for real. Imagine all your little readers with Scrangie nails, how cool is that?!
ReplyDeletecongrats! it is beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteThis is drop-dead gorgeous! I have promised myself a one-off RBL International (gulp) order in September as I am celebrating a big birthday. Teal, Scrangie and Mismas are definitely on the list. Well done!
ReplyDeleteLove it, Scrangie, this will be my first RBL purchase too. Can't wait till it's available!
ReplyDeleteis there any way we'll be able to get this in the uk? :( it's beautiful
ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous! I love it!
ReplyDelete*drools/dies*
Aghh, why must RBL be so expensive. Love the color though!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous!! I just came across it on the Rescue Beauty Lounge site. Congratulations :) That is really exciting you got to design your own polish!!
ReplyDeletethat's soooo awesome. I already knew about this but I found this post again and I have to say again; dream come true!
