What's the most exciting thing about swatching for you? (i.e. why do you do it?)
I love the process of getting my nails ready for nail polish. For me, applying nail polish itself is like meditation, it soothes.
If you could give advice to newbies it would be _______________?

For shooting i use 2 softboxes, 1 lamp, tripod and my old camera nikon d5000. Ah yeah, my Sleeve from a white sweater
Has swatching changed your relationship with nail polish? How?
