January 2019 Polish Pick Up: Mythology

Press Sample

The January Polish Pick Up theme is Mythology! Launch is 1/4 at 10am Central. All of the brands have outdone themselves this month, and I have six of those shades to share with you!




1850 Artisan Orion's Belt
Denim blue base with copper shimmer, linear holo, holo microflakes, and a variety of aurora shimmers.
Inspired by the beautiful night sky depiction of Orion the Hunter.
cap: 150

This is 1850 Artisan's very first polish pick up and Nikki has made a stunning shade!
Two coats shown with topcoat, formula was good and application was like butter.






I couldn't help but stamp some stars on!




77 Lacquer The Goddess of Death
a medium toned nude base with copper and red shimmer, copper, pink and violet sparks, pink iridescent shifting Flakies and grey iridescent Flakies.
cap: 100

Do you remember the Mannequin hands trend? This is my perfect shade for that, but kicked up a notch with shimmer and flake!

Bee's Knees The Haetae
Inspiration: Sarah grew up listening to stories from her grandmother that involved the haetae, so this mythical creature has always held a special place in her heart. What's not to love about a unicorn/lion/dragon hybrid creature that's a symbol of protection?
Description: A silver linear holo polish with an icy blue to purple shimmer, holo flakes, and iridescent flakes that shift teal to purple.
Cap: none

The new packaging is very nice, loving the logo redesign and screen printed bottles but the best part is the new brush. Oh yes, this is the same brush that I rave about every chance I get. Now there are two indie brands with it! Time to celebrate!

The Haetae stamps beautifully over dark colors! Shown over Pegasus from Turtle Tootsie




KBShimmer Gaia
Inspired by the bright colored depictions of Gaia.
A vibrant blue jelly base filled with holographic glitters and color shifting unicorn flakes in shades of green, purple, pink and blue.

I love how bright the base is!
Shown is two coats with topcoat, formula was good, application was surprisingly smooth for how much glitter is in it.









Lollipop Posse Those Who Were Neither
soft, milky red jelly filled with chrome and iridescent flakes in various color shifts, as well as holographic silver flakies, red/green Aurora pigment, and scattered holographic pigment
no cap

Wow! Such a sparkly and beautifully done polish. Don't miss it!

And the beautiful green flash!




Turtle Tootsie Pegasus
A dark indigo jelly base with holo micro glitter and purple to blue chameleon flakies as well as fantasy flakies
no cap

I love a good grapey purple with sparkle! It also works well for a pond mani and makes a great base for unicorn pee.
