I got some Illyrians! I’d passed on some of her releases, but this release she put out her Polish Pickup shade that she didn’t end up releasing – it had been called Arco Iris (it was to be for the month of June, the video game month)- but for some reason she didn’t release it… Read More Nail Mail Illyrian
“Unicorn Pee” polishes are all the rage, and KB Shimmer has made a gorgeous one! This is Hard to Empress. It’s a deep blurple polish with Unicorn Pee (a special, hard to find pigment) and flakies. It’s so pretty! I also have heard great things about their top coat, so I thought I’d give… Read More Nail Mail KB Shimmer Hard to Empress
Okay, rarely do I get nail mail and then just immediately have to wear one of the polishes, but I did exactly that with Moon Shine Mani’s Waiting For Love! It’s a suuuper bright pink neon with iridescent flakies in it. This is from her Wake Me Up trio, based on the music of the… Read More Try it Tuesday- Moon Shine Mani Waiting for Love
This is Morgan Taylor’s Rebel with a Cause, from their Winter 2014 collection (Glam Rock collection). It’s a pretty burgundy color, and was great in 2 coats. It has some small flecks in it, it’s not a cream finish. Here’s a closeup you can see a little bit of that. The formula was easy… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Morgan Taylor Rebel With a Cause
These are the May 2018 Fandom Flakies polishes. The theme was Dr. Who- I am a wanna-be Dr. Who fan. I’ve seen episodes, but I need to sit down and binge watch it! The Fandom Flakie polish box always has a polish from Bee’s Knees Lacquer and Night Owl Lacquer, and then one guest polish.… Read More Nail Mail- Fandom Flakies Box- May 2018

I had to get the pink one, called Waiting For Love, it just was so gorgeous. The orange neon on the left is called… Read More Nail Mail- Moonshine Mani
This is KBShimmer’s April Polish Pickup polish, Hubble’d Together. It has a light teal jelly base filled with unicorn flakes in it, and it glows in the dark!!! I usually don’t like mint/teal colored polishes, but apparently if you put flakies in it and make it glow in the dark, it’s perfect for me! This… Read More Try another Thursday- KB Shimmer Hubble’d Together
Rogue Lacquer is a newish brand (she started Rogue in Spring of 2018)- but not a new maker. Rachel was part of the duo behind Ever After Polish- but she moved and it wasn’t possible to keep that up, so she split from Ever After and made her own brand, Rogue. Miranda, the other half… Read More Nail Mail- Rogue Lacquer x2
This was Le Polish’s Polish Pickup polish for the month of September, 2017, Fall Foliage and Fun, called What’s Up, Bog? The inspiration was a picture of a cranberry bog at sunset. It is my first and so far only Le Polish. This polish was super thick, and tough to work with. I ended… Read More Try it Tuesday- Le Polish What’s Up, Bog
I have a lot of Zoya polishes to try, they have amazing sales (especially around Earth Day and Black Friday), so I decided to pull one out to try. This is Zoya Tru. It’s a dusty mid-toned purple with gold – well, almost gold flecks in it. I was going to say gold shimmer, but… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Zoya Tru
