Polish Pickup June 2024: Cartoons

PR Sample

Get ready to laugh out loud with June's Cartoons theme! I have products from LynB Designs, Hearts & Promishes, and KBShimmer to share with you. Available at Polish Pickup June 7-10. Stop by their facebook group too and see the variety of other products being offered.



Hearts & Promises Pineapple Under The Sea - Cap 300
Inspired by Spongebob Squarepants.
A neon yellow base with Patrick inspired red orange shimmer.
The shimmer is kind of hidden in most of my photos because of how the polish is fluorescing. The shimmer can be seen in the darker shot though. In person, I am able to see the shimmer often and fairly well in certain lighting. It adds such a pretty sparkle to the polish. Shown in three coats, my VNL is able to be seen slightly.




KBShimmer Sugar, Spice & Everything Nice Nail Polish – No Cap

Inspired by a trio of girls with colorful eyes and outfits who saved the world before bedtime. Created in a lab, full of sugar, spice, and everything nice, these powerful girls could do anything!

Sugar, Spice & Everything Nice Nail Polish has a teal-leaning base which is the perfect sky-like background for a shifting micro flake shimmer. Featuring a bubblegum pink color, the micro flakes easily flip into vibrant yellow and green hues when the viewing angle and light are changed.
The flakes really are as vibrant in person to my eye, as they are in the photos on my device. Sometimes the base color looks a bit more like a denim blue, but that's expected to vary depending on light. Such a fun polish, and great for the summer, beachy vibes!




KBShimmer Strawberry Crunch Hand & Body Scrub – No Cap

Saturday morning cartoons had kids glued to the TV while eating their favorite cereals. Lucky kids had options; marshmallows or mini cookies, colorful fruity flakes or honey covered rings - the cereal aisle was heaven! Served with cold milk, and hopefully, a prize inside the box. A spoonful of cereal was the perfect pairing for hours of animated fun.

Strawberry Crunch cereal - A sweet blend of strawberry, raspberry and bing cherry combine with notes of juicy orange for a delectable scrub scent. Sugary vanilla amps up notes of buttery caramel, adding a hint of bakery notes to this fruit-scented sugar scrub. Swirls of pinkish red mimic those juicy berries for the perfect summery treat for your skin.
Sniffing this from the jar, I definitely get a soft vanilla-based cherry-almond vibe, with a hint of cinnamon. It's definitely gourmand!




LynB Designs: Ain't That Just The Way - No Cap
A pale blue base with intense red copper to orange/gold shifting shimmer. At some angles, the polish kind of looks like it has a green-leaning gray base but that's just the shimmer playing tricks on us! It definitely has a light blue-grey base.
Inspired by Over the Garden Wall




All of my swatches are shown in two thick coats with topcoat unless otherwise stated. All photography uses a neutral color temperature bulb and white background with white bounce card. My nails are natural with no enhancements or use of blurring/cream base, I do have a fairly prominent VNL with dividing line.

Hella Handmade Creations: April 2024

PR Sample

HHC polishes and products will be available April 14-21 at the Hella Handmade Creations shop. Below are the upcoming products I received ahead of launch to share with you from Hearts & Promises and LynB Designs.




Hearts & Promises: Shaggy
The 3rd polish in their Scooby Doo inspired series.
A neon green crelly base with orange to gold shifting aurora shimmer. Shown in two coats with topcoat. I also use heavy coats when I paint, so you may need 3 to get a similar look if you typically paint thin coats.
Cap of 200




LynB Designs: Pernicious Skunk
An orange to gold shifting shimmer base with blue to purple shifting magnetic pull. Shown in two coats without topcoat. I used a thick bar magnet placed under each finger at a diagonal for the effect.

I've also noticed that across all the swatch photos from LynB's swatch team that in dim light and certain angles, sometimes the gold color appears to be a sort of avocado/limey shift. It's definitely there, it kinda shows in the bottle on my macro shot. I failed to capture that aspect well in my swatch photos and thought I'd mention it. Be sure to browse the photos in all the groups too so you can see it!
cap of 150

Polish Pickup Mar 2024: Slumber Party

PR Sample

Available at Polish Pickup March 1-4 are a large variety of products from many different brands. I have items from Hearts & Promises, KBShimmer and LynB Designs to share with you! Let's take a look at them!




Hearts & Promises Making Friendship Bracelets
White to blue thermal with metallic blue flakes. Shown in two coats with topcoat.




KBShimmer Silky Drawers
Riding the line between pink and purple, this reflective shade’s shimmer features a lavender to bubblegum pink shift over a muted orchid base color. The polish appears more pink or lavender depending on the angle and lighting. Under flash or brighter light, a pink reflection is set off by purple shimmer, making it a fun polish for sleepover shenanigans. Shown in two coats with Smooth Moves and Clearly on Top topcoat.




KBShimmer Chocolate Hand & Body Scrub
Slumber party nights filled with chocolatey treats inspired this Chocolate Hand & Body Scrub. Deep and rich notes of cocoa blend with smooth milk chocolate and vanilla-like white chocolate notes for a scrub that smells good enough to eat! (but don't)




LynB Designs Slumber Party Shag
A rusty base with intense indigo to purple to pink shifting shimmer. Inspired by Light as a Feather one of Jennalyn's favorite games to play at sleepovers and her childhood best friend’s basement carpet.

WOW! ya'll, this polish really surprised me. In the bottle I thought it was pretty but was unsure of it. When I put it on I loved it so much! I ended up wearing it for several days. The more I wore it, the more I didn't want to remove it! I think this one might be one of those sleeper polishes, but don't sleep on it! Trust me, and snap it up. I think you'll be glad you did!
