I love a good coral pink polish, and Moon Shine Mani’s Honor’s Cotton Candy is certainly a good coral pink polish!! It’s so pretty- and as you see on my middle finger, there are random gold hex glitters in it. I didn’t fish for any, they are very sporadic and come out just fine, there… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Moon Shine Mani Honor’s Cotton Candy, Frenzy Sugar Baby, Illyrian Ultraviolence
Illyrian Spark is super pretty. It’s an older Illyrian (round bottle), and I just love the purpley pink holo. It was three coats (probably could have done just two), and the formula was good. It’s such a pretty pastel polish! I just love the flakies and the holo. Then I wore Moon Shine Mani’s Duo,… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Illyrian Spark, Moon Shine Mani Poirot’s Chocolat Chaud and With Mini Marshmallows
Okay! It’s Indie Nail Polish Favorites time! And just for an overview, in 2022 I bought 441 polishes (both indie and mainstream, but mostly indies). I’ll give you my most favorite polish first, then the others are in no particular order! My most favorite indie polish of 2021—–was NOT a pink! Can you believe it???… Read More Indie Nail Polish Favorites for 2021
I love this polish, Femme Fatale Rembrandt Tulips- such a gorgeous thermal! I had to wear it right away, as I don’t have the best of luck with some of Femme Fatale’s thermals. It’s a gorgeous pink with a strong purple shimmer and purple flakies. I can’t remember which color is the warm state and… Read More Try More Thursday- Femme Fatale Rembrandt Tulips, Illyrian Polish Astroworld, Glam Polish Luigi, Number One!
I wore this polish, Moon Shine Mani Electric Tide, forgot to take pictures of it, so I put it back on and took pictures. Weirdly enough, it felt more sheer on the second wearing. You can definitely see my nail line- but it is definitely more noticeable in pictures than in real life. It’s a… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Moon Shine Mani Electric Tide, Illyrian Sakura, Glam Polish Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Vapid Lacquer has somewhat slowed down their polish offerings (though they have great body lotions!!! My kids adore them!). This is an older Vapid, Notso Slick. It’s a dusty purple with shimmer. I smooshed the corner of my middle nail without noticing it! It’s got that blue shimmer running through it. I did three thin… Read More Try More Thursday- Vapid Notso Slick, Illyrian Strange, Glisten and Glow Baby Shark
I wore Illyrian Sublime. I love Illyrian polishes, but there’s always so much customer service drama I have not bought directly from their website in ages. It’s a bummer- I remember staying up super late on Black Friday to hit their sale- IDK if they even had a sale this year. And the shop is… Read More Try More Thursday- Illyrian Sublime, Hare Medusa Luminosa, Dimension Nails Blue Shark
I’ve had this Illyrian Polish for a long time, it’s such a gorgeous color! The holo sparkle is so pretty! I did three thin coats. I adore these mid-toned reddish purples. And then I stamped green aliens over it! I used a Moonflower stamping polish, which stamped super great but I should have used a… Read More October Falloween- Try More Thursday -Illyrian Wicked, Tonic Thriller, Glam In Our Halloween Town
I love the book Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier, and AEngland did a polish collection based on it. This is Rebecca. AEngland just does holos so well. They’re a UK brand, I get mine from Color4nails or Beautometry. Check out this holo flame- even under regular light! And this shade is absolutely beautiful. It was… Read More Try More Thursday- AEngland Rebecca, Baroness X Burnt Soul, Illyrian Umbra
I have no idea what is going on with Pretty Serious. They had issues a couple years ago, came back and opened up again, and now they’re closed again. But here’s a super pretty light blue cream polish from their Pet Names collection, Bitsy Boo. It went on super smoothly- and we all know creams… Read More Try More Thursday- Pretty Serious Bitsy Boo, Illyrian Polish Dark Crystal
