Vivid Lacquer: The Soapbox Co. Exclusives


Vivid Lacquer is also available at The Soapbox Co. so it was only a matter of time that they would collaborate and create an exclusive polish or two!

Champagne Bath is a peachy polish with shimmer and darker flecks in it. The flecks lend it a speckled look which I love. Gorgeous alone or perfect for pairing with nail art or your favorite glitter topper. I wore two coats alone for the swatches below.




Supernova is an iridescent flakie polish with dark peachy/orange shreds. The gold looking flash adds a touch of glamour, don't you think?! I wore one coat over Champagne Bath. Easy peasy, it will need a few coats of topcoat or the gelous/seche combo which is what I've used in the photos.




Well, are you singing it yet? Yes! The polish names were inspired by an Oasis song. If you're not familiar, have a listen!



Both Champagne Bath and Supernova will be available on October 4th, noon CDT only at The Soapbox Co.

My Ten Friends: Multipass and Mr. Universe


Multipass is a new My Ten Friends polish color that's launching Friday Sept. 27th. Its a beautiful bright, almost neon tangerine color packed with glitter in pinks, greens and golds. My camera has a certain disdain for shooting bright orange so just take my word for it! Its a really gorgeous shade! I'm told that this polish glows under a black light! Wouldn't that be fun to wear during a glow-bowl event?
The other special thing about Multipass is that it was made to celebrate the Ida Nails It blog's 1-year anniversary, congrats Ida!




I wore two coats with a little extra around the nail line to make sure I had good coverage for the brightly lit photos.


The next polish is Mr. Universe which is an Overall Beauty exclusive polish created by My Ten Friends. This polish is made with the same pigment in Overall Beauty Minerals Black Knight eyeshadow. Its smokey with a pinky/purpley shimmer. Add that to an MTF polish full of beautiful holo glitter and its marvelous! I really loved this one a lot and did not want to take it off! I wore two coats in these photos.

Four Day Weekend!

For me, that is! I celebrated my birthday on Thursday September 19th in part by taking a mini vacation from work and online things. I did however; have a special birthday mani that I wore for the whole week last week!
I chose to use Nerd Lacquer Götterdämmerung and Lynderella Bibbity Bobbity Boo Blue, a glitter topper for the accent nail. They're both combinations of my very favorite color, purple, and my birthstone, a sapphire!



The Nerd Lacquer is a dark purple that leans blue and has blue hexes and blue shimmer in it that can be seen near the middle of the nail when the light hits it. The shimmer gives the polish a sort of shifting effect that's absolutely beautiful. Everyone needs this polish, amirite?!




The Lynnderella is one of the older originals in the fat round bottle. It has a mixture of varying shades of blue glitter and purple glitter in a sort of smokey blue jelly base. Though its not holo, the glitter twinkles in the sun! I felt quite lucky to have found this polish, as it seems pretty rare. How could I not wear it for my birthday?




I hope you've enjoyed my quick post today, have a great week!
