Cover Your Mouth When You Cough
a light chocolate brown cream polish
oh my delicious! I wanted to lick my nails after putting this on! It is so creamy and did I mention delicious looking? like coffee or chocolate or some kind of sinful dessert.
Two coats. Perfect formula.





Don’t Call Me! Text Me
a dusty purple cream polish
Juicy and a little squishy, and even though Chrissy calls these dusty I think it has a vibrancy about it. Two coats, perfect formula.





There, They’re, They Are, Their. Use Proper Grammar!
a dusty sage green cream polish
Have I mentioned that green is my second favorite color? It is, and this one is that! Reminiscent of antique glassware and how it has that depth to it. Two coats, perfect formula.





Can You Chew Any Louder?
a light chocolate brown holographic cream polish with blue/purple iridescent glitters and iridescent rainbow glitters
Just like the cream, only full of beautiful glitters and holo. Two coats, perfect formula.






Pull Up Your Pants!
a dusty purple holographic cream polish with blue/purple iridescent glitters and iridescent rainbow glitters
Just like the cream, only full of beautiful glitters and holo. Two coats, perfect formula.






Blow Your Nose!
a sage green holographic cream polish with blue/purple iridescent glitters and iridescent rainbow glitters
Just like the cream, only full of beautiful glitters and holo. Two coats, perfect formula. (I'm being a bit repetitious here, but truly these are all amazing!)





Watermarbling fun with the creams! They spread over the water perfectly and with very little effort! I did not use filtered water - it was straight from the tap. I stuck my hand under the faucet until it no longer felt cold and then I filled my little Oui! yogurt glass and got busy making the bullseyes! For two nails, I changed up the order of colors and it gives an entirely different looking marble! So in love with these!



The whole set will be launched at Indie Shop Atlanta on March 24th followed by the Turtle Tootsie website on Sunday March 25th at noon.

Leesha's Lacquer: Bunny Loaf

Press Sample

Leesha's Lacquer created Bunny Loaf for her monthly OOAK for March and it is a charity polish!
The polish launches on March 21st at https://www.etsy.com/shop/LeeshasLacquer

Bunny Loaf
a sky blue based polish with a dash of holo, color shifting glitters with turquoise shimmer and rainbow flakes. The turquoise shimmer sometimes gives the polish a greenish look in warmer lighting, pretty cool! I wore two coats with topcoat and the formula was great!





$2 from every sale of Bunny Loaf will be donated to a "bunderful" non profit called Midwest Rabbit Rescue & Re-home, which is based in Michigan. This is a no-kill rescue that is entirely operated by volunteers and donations. Leesha is directly working with this rescue so they are aware of this special polish event.
Help a bun on March 21 and get yours at Leesha's Lacquer shop!

kbshimmer for Polish Pick Up: Hubble'd Together

Press Sample

Hubble, the world's first large space-based optical telescope, has taken many beautiful pictures of the planets and stars. kbshimmer's April Polish Pick Up contribution pays homage to the Hubble with this polish based on a photo it took of Jupiter, its three moons and their shadows.




Hubble'd Together starts with a teal leaning mint base that is loaded with holographic micro flakes for shimmer and shine. Unicorn flakes echo the pastel shades of the colorful inspiration photo, while glow powder gives this polish a green toned glow in the dark. Shown here in 3 coats and I have to say, this is the best GITD formula I have ever used. It is super smooth and gel like, no grit at all.

Christy suggests layering over black for a unique flake filled look.





Glow in the dark, flake, jelly, teal, holographic, space inspired - what a perfect combo!
KBShimmer’s Hubble’d Together polish will be available 04/06/2018 – 04/09/2018 at https://www.polishpickup.com.
