Girly Bits for Polish Pick Up: Felt With The Heart

The theme for April's Polish Pick Up is Across the Universe - Planets & Galaxies. Pam created a polish inspired by The Little Prince which is a lovely story about learning the importance of looking beneath the surface to find the real truth and meaning of things. It teaches us to see with our heart instead of just with our eyes.


Felt With The Heart
a sparkling turquoise foil-ish finish, with an abundance of holographic pigments, gold flakes, blue flakes, and green-blue-gold colour shifting flakes. I wore two coats with topcoat and Pam is so right, definitely foil like!

Colors By Llarowe for Polish Pick Up: Space, The Final Frontier

CbL polish "Space, The Final Frontier" is Leah Ann's creation exclusive to the April Polish Pick Up. The month's theme is Across the Universe Planets & Galaxies and launch is April 6-9.

Space, The Final Frontier
A chameleon of a polish! Depending upon the lighting it can look pink, purple, red, magenta and blue with a strong purple to blue shimmer and hints of gold. The aurora shifting pigment and prismatic holo flake give it added sparkle and dimension.

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.

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!
