I pulled out a bright orange Tonic I hadn’t tried yet, Orange Crush. I consider this more of a summery orange, though it would be beautiful in fall (or any time you want an orange!) It is a shimmer, and you can see it has some brush strokes through it, but not terrible. It is… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Tonic Orange Crush, Painted Polish Jammin’ in Jellies, I Scream Nails Speck-a-holic
Happy 4th of July! I wore two manis for the holiday- one on Sunday, one today. Sunday I wore Cirque Firecracker and Painted Polish Let Freedom Bling as my accent nail (over Color Club French Tip). Firecracker is a magnetic, and it was a breeze to magnetize. Let Freedom Bling is a red and blue… Read More Happy 4th of July 2022
I don’t think Pep Nail Vibes is in business anymore, but I have a few of these- here’s Supernova! It’s a really pretty polish- I like the dark blue base and the glitter mix! I did three thin coats to build up the base color and have more glitter. The formula was great, no issues… Read More Try More Thursday- Pep Nail Vibes Supernova, Humble Bee Minnie, Native War Paints Pinkie Pie
I am not usually a topper person, but I got two random ones and thought I’d try them out! I think I got them both (I know I got the Maybelline, not sure about the Hard Candy) at a Dollar General. My son is obsessed with Mountain Dew, and I don’t know if you know,… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Maybelline and Hard Candy toppers!
JReine has had some drama, but I am still going to wear the ones I own. I got Reef Queen, from the Charity Box in June 2021. The color reminded me of their Temple of Temptation, which was super sheer and kind of disappointing. Reef Queen was much more opaque!!! And I gotta say, I… Read More Try More Thursday- JReine Reef Queen, Glam Jessie’s Girl, Zombie Claw So Smitten
Is this the purple edition? First up is Shleee Good 4U. It’s gorgeous, I love this shade of purple with the pink flakies. Love. The closeup! I did three coats of this, the formula was great!

Lollipop Posse changed their name to Garden Path Lacquer, and one of their first offerings for Polish Pickup was Datura- and it’s GORGEOUS. That pink shift??? Isn’t it gorgeous with the green base??? It looks more sheer in pictures than it actually is in real life, this is three coats. This is a contender for… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Garden Path Lacquer Datura, The Don Deeva Safe Word, Cupcake Ogres Have Feelings Too
This is a pretty Essie- I got it at polishpick.com when they were clearancing them since they’re no longer carrying them. Such a pretty blue shade, and the formula was fine. This is a fine Essie, one I’m glad to have! This was three coats but easy to work with, and I really do like… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday Essie Wink of Sleep
This is a super cute polish. I love an interesting purpley gray and the flakies are amazing! I did three coats for this, and an easy formula. See how purple it is? I love it!! And check out the big ol’ flake on my middle finger! Maybe this isn’t even gray- it looks so rainbowy!… Read More Try More Thursday- Moo Moo Signatures Have You Ever Seen a Moomaid by the Sea, Painted Polish Sexy and I Grow It, Kathleen & Co Multipass
Koala Berry is such a classic! I photographed this with the price tag from Trade Secrets, to show how old this polish is, lol. This was a bit streaky, and I did three coats. I rarely wear red, and this formula was tricky enough that I probably won’t ever reach for it, but as I… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Koala Berry and China Glaze Come Rain or Shine
