A England's first range of 15 polishes; The Mythicals, takes the polish lover on a journey through great Arthurian Legend. Packed with a vast range of romantic opulent shades, each polish has its own tale to tell, and if you want to find out more about the legend, there's even a glossary detailing the roots of the legendary names here. From deep dramatic holographic shades to soft sheer pearls, there is definitely a polish to suit every taste, Adina's close connection to Arthurian legend is what inspired her to create this collection, and I was lucky enough to talk to her about her "new baby" A-England:

What Inspired you to create Nail Polish?
Long life passion. The immediate gratification. The therapy it represents. The joy of wearing it as part of yourself and being able to watch it all the time.Was it a hard industry to break into?
I specify i don't have any sponsor or backing and even connection. I was surprised by "the magic" of a press release sent to a few bloggers just the 8th of this January and the excitement it caused. I have been shipping orders to US, Australia, Canada, Europe, UK, even Brazil...
Now my aim is to expand and offer my brand through other store: online or not in order to have a good distribution and be able to come out with new shades.
Do you come up with all the great colours yourself? Are you involved in the creation process?
Yes, sending to the manufacturer Pantone codes, ideas of finish, swatches of colours from various sources. I have to say they followed me brilliantly. The quality is very very important for me.
I absolutely love the names of your polishes, What Inspired you to chose Arthurian Legend as the theme for the Mythicals?
