I wore 2 coats for photos, formula was good no issues to report.

A dewy, dusty pale green turquoise to seafoam and vanilla, filled with holo microflake and a blue to fuschia to purple to gold shifting aurora shimmer. $1/bottle will go to benefit the Southern Poverty Law Center. I wore 3 coats for photos, formula was good no issues to report.

Lollipop Posse My Heart is Like the Ocean
Inspired by Tori Amos, and her song "Take to the Sky"
a teal creme base with pink Aurora shimmer, pink/green multichrome shimmer, and linear holo pigment. $1 from every bottle sold of 'My Heart is Like the Ocean' to RAINN. I wore 2 coats for photos, formula was good no issues to report.
Cap: None






Native War Paints Audrey
a tri-thermal which shifts from purple to dark blue to light blue along with copper to green unicorn pee and copper shimmer. Because my nails are super short, I dunk them in ice water and quickly take the photo, thus, the third shade doesn't show well on my nails but I have seen the effect on those with much longer nails than mine. I wore 2 coats for photos, formula was good no issues to report.
Cap 250






Night Owl Lacquer Holding On & Letting Go
Inspired by all women who battle mental health issues.
a smoky plum base with a fuchsia/violet/red/copper/green multichrome shift and silver flakies. I wore 2 coats for photos, formula was good no issues to report. Look at that shift!

Sweet Heart Polish Hey, Catnip
Inspired by Catniss Everdeen from Hunger Games
Warm golden brown shimmer with gold and copper holo micro glitters. I wore 2 coats for photos, formula was good no issues to report.

October Polish Pick Up: Villains

Press Sample

The October Polish Pick Up theme is Villains! Launch is October 5 at 10am Central through October 8 at 10:59pm Central. The brands have outdone themselves and there are so many beautiful polishes to choose from I have six to share with you!



Girly Bits Misguided
Inspired by Enchantress from Suicide Squad.
a silver holographic base with a pink to green multichrome shift, and green to purple multichrome flakes, and added holographic micro flakes.
No cap

Very sparkly and shimmery, with a definite shift. I don't think I've seen a white/silver-ish multichrome before. Stunning polish! Shown is two coats with topcoat.







KBShimmer Resting Witch Face
Inspired by The Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz. When cold, the holo lime green glitters sparkle and pop against the blackened thermal base. When warm, this shade is a soft green with the glitters commanding attention. This shade is semi textured, and will need a thick coat of top coat for a smooth glossy finish.
When receiving this polish, let sit at room temperature for 12-24 for hours to let the thermal powder re-calibrate and best show the shift. Thermal polishes have a shelf life of 6-12 months, and thermals can lose their ability to change colors after that time.
No Cap

The contrast in this thermal is great, and I like the added touch of the glitter. We don't see glitter thermals often. Shown is two coats with Clearly on Top topcoat.






Lollipop Posse Lacquer Your Name Belongs to Me Now
Inspired by Yubaba - Spirited Away. Described as a medium, navy-leaning blue that suspends red/green Aurora pigment, rust/red/green shifting multichrome shimmer, and holographic flakies.
Cap TBD

Yowza! You need this polish. The shift is insane and very apparent in this base shade. I don't know how she does it, but Karen is on a roll with shifting polishes lately! Shown is two coats with topcoat.








Pretty Beautiful Unlimited Just One Bite
Inspired by The Evil Queen. Described as a blackened purple base loaded with blue to purple shifting magnetic pigment, with silver holographic micro flakies, 3 types of chameleon flakies.
Cap 205

Blue/Purple shift. Magnetic. Flakes. Holo. What else could I want? Shown is two coats with topcoat.






Sweet Heart Polish That's Sultan Vile Betrayer To You!
Inspired by Sultan Jafar from Aladdin.
a white base UCC crelly that transforms to a deep purple in UV light with an aqua to purple aurora shimmer.
cap TBD

Shown is two coats with topcoat in both studio like and sun light. I'm imagining how this might look over red or blue, stunning I bet!









Turtle Tootsie Polishes-Long Live The King
Inspired by Scar from the Lion King. Described as a dark orange brown base polish with orange/green/gold UCC flakies.
no cap

How could I not add nail art to this perfect fall shade? Shown is two coats with topcoat.
