Nail Hoot: Don't Be Suspicious (HHC LE)

Nail Hoot is bringing Don't Be Suspicious to Hella Handmade Creations this month. Launch is tonight (Feb 13) at 11:01pm Central.

The heart-shaped necklace from Titanic, a sparkly blue dress from prom, or the night sky?
Don't Be Suspicious is none of those! Packed with holographic glitters in a buildable sapphire blue base, this polish is totally trustworthy!
Shown in two coats with topcoat. Such a stunning sapphire shade!

Blush The Black Pearl
Inspiration: Tahitian Black Pearls
A smokey dark grey nail polish with a shifting pink-orange-gold-green shimmer.
Cap: None

I wore two coats with topcoat, and then also topped it with Blush's Matterial Girl Matte topcoat. The formula was fantastic and super easy to apply with their original fan shaped, super soft brush!

KBShimmer Seems Fishy
Inspired by: Boesemani Tropical Rainbowfish
Starts with a deep indigo base boldly accented with a shimmer that shifts in a rainbow of hues. In the shade, see pops of red, pink, orange, lime, green, and blue. The golds and greens really shine through in brighter lighting, and the more extreme angles reveal a pop of deep navy. A scattering of holo micro flakes completes this stunning multichrome polish.
Cap: None

If you love multichrome polishes, be sure to get this one! It is simply beautiful. Two coats with topcoat shown here.

KBShimmer Wild Orchid sugar scrub
Inspired by: How Christy imagines a beautifully tropical, floral, aquatic scene would smell!
Starts with a sensual orchid note. Sweet amber is supported by notes of ripe peach and verbena and is completed with a subtle note of wood. This off-white sugar scrub is swirled with aqua and pink.

I enjoyed using this scrub. The floral is soft, not too heady and definitely reminded me of aromas from my trips to Hawaii.

Lollipop Posse The Source of All Magic
Inspired by: The Wellspring, from "The Magicians"
A black jelly base filled with blue to purple to green shifting Aurora shimmer, blue to purple shifting iridescent flakes, and holographic microflakes.
Cap: None

You know that crazy vibrant shade of blue that seems to be lit and glowing? Those flakes are that! Karen has totally nailed this polish. And! When I first saw this polish, it reminded me of the bio-luminescent glow from blooming red algae, like in the photograph from Doug Perrine during a visit to Vaadhoo. Photos do not do this justice.

Zap! This is one Jelectro that you will want to be near! What a dark mysterious and electrifying polish! Shown is two coats with topcoat.

Blush In The Beginning
A pale silver-toned lavender nail polish with a strong linear holographic flame, reminiscent of a flash of light.
No cap

The last three photos are taken under a different light to demonstrate just how holo this polish can be! It's very striking! If I were to rank the intensity of it, I'd put it at the high end. Two coats shown, with topcoat.

The polish is inspired by the artwork based on the Norse story of Sól and Mani.
No cap

Shown in two coats on its own and in one coat over black. What a stunning polish! The formula is smooth for as many sparkly things as are in it!

KBShimmer Pomegranate Scrub
Inspired by the Greek mythology story of Hades and Persephone.
The pomegranate scrub features a hint of musk, with tropical notes of pineapple and guava for a bold pomegranate scent.

When I opened the jar, I saw swirls of pinks, reds and white and when I sniffed, I smelled the most creamy smelling pomegranate blend I've ever smelled. It's dreamy, even if you're not fond of pomegranate. The guava note really rounds it out and softens the pom. I promise, this is not sharp or tart at all - it's creamy and fruity and just delicious smelling!

Lollipop Posse The Sister Guardians
A sky blue crelly packed with two Aurora shimmers that shift vibrant pink, gold, and green.
Inspired by the Zorya sisters of ancient Slavic folklore. They are often referred to as the Auroras, and are the guardians of the morning and evening skies.
cap 220 - 215 US / 5 UK

I am super in love with this polish, this exact vibrant shade of blue and shimmer combo has been floating around in my "wish it existed" list for quite some time now.
I love seeing redbud trees and cherry trees in full bloom with their pink blossoms and vibrant green leaves in springtime and this polish is all that! I've worn it for a few days and people have noticed it and commented (that just doesn't happen to me, like ever) ok, enough mushy/nostalgia - I'm showing this here in three coats with topcoat.

Nail Hoot Golden Mask Dynasty
Inspired by a photo Brandie took when she attended The Golden Mask Dynasty (金面王朝) show. The story tells how a queen who wears a golden mask creates a splendid dynasty through wisdom, tolerance, trust and boundless love.
Cap: 280

A flood of green/orange/blue iridescent moon flakes fill the neon pink pearlescent base. Shown in 2 coats. Also works well in one coat as a topper over red toned creams, dark pinks and purples.

Wowza! This color packs a punch! Definitely eye catching and the intense sparkle going on just adds to that! Shown in two coats with topcoat.
