Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm grateful for my family and friends and all the love and support I've received through this tough year.

Lou It Yourself: Holiday Trio

The Holiday Trio from Lou It Yourself will be available November 25th at 10:00am Central. The polishes each have a holo and flakie finish which is simply perfect for the holidays and year round. Take a look!


Jingle McKringleberry
A warm red jelly with green/gold flakies and a dash of holo. Red like a ripe tomato! I can't wait for spring so we can grow tomatoes again!

A Serious Case of Tinsellitis
A silver shimmer full of holo shards, platinum and silver flakies with a dash of holo. I love how bright and sparkly this is! It's one of those silvers that look nearly white.

This also looks great as a topper! Worn on the ring finger over Jingle McKringleberry and the other nails are topped with Oh, Holo There, a holo top coat that Lou also sent!

Hot Crocolate
A dark emerald with copper shimmer, gold flakies and holo. What a fun name, I love the creativity here!

I wore three thin coats of each polish with Lou It Yourself's To Top It Off topcoat. The formula was fluid and easy to apply for all three polishes and I enjoyed trying Lou's topcoat. It seemed to dry fairly quick and was super shiny! If you're on the hunt to try a new topcoat, I can recommend this one.

I was curious whether these would watermarble and yes, they do! I wore these over A Serious Case of Tinsellitis and I really love how Jingle McKringleberry looks like a shade of rose gold in some areas!

Thank you Manna! (a few updates)



The Indie Polish Shop list has been scrubbed of inactive/closed/moved shops!
There are also some additions to the list that weren't on it prior.

Manna checked every link (originally approx 500 links!) to insure the shop url was still current, found new links for those that moved, and removed those that had closed.
Huge thank you to her! If you are not familiar with her blog - go visit!!
She has straight forward reviews and beautiful photos!



I also have the annual holiday sales form and list ready for entries!
