Hello again! I have more photos of Heather’s Hues Meraki to show you; do you remember seeing it the other day?
This is 3 coats plus top coat. Formula was nice, though I was surprised that it took 3 coats. I thought it was going to be more opaque than it was. But I could not stop staring at my nails when I had it on!

OPI Red-y for the Holidays, 2 coats plus top coat
This was such a creamy red creme! I know I give OPI a ribbing about their red nail polishes, but they do reds right. Be sure to check out my swatch video on instagram!

Hi! I hope you are well today. I have a fun collaboration between Sweet & Sour Lacquer and Peachtree Polish/Bonparsco to show you. This collab consists of 2 nail polishes and 1 lotion. Read on for more details and of course, pictures!
The Harvest Gala Collab
Pre order October 24-30 for $25 + shipping for 2 polishes and 1 lotion at www.sweetandsourlacquer.com
Peachtree Polish Let’s Get Toasted is a dark bronze crelly with gold shimmer. It’s loaded with iridescent flakes that shift from red to gold to green.
My photos show 2 coats plus 1 coat of Sweet & Sour Lacquer Glossy Sauce, then 1 coat of matte top coat. This is a jelly polish, and those who want more complete coverage may want more coats.
Sweet & Sour Lacquer How Do You Like Them Apples? is a candy apple red filled with pink/gold/green flakes, a dash of orange shimmer, and a touch of silver holo dust.
My photos show 2 coats plus 1 coat of Sweet & Sour Lacquer Glossy Sauce, then 1 coat of matte top coat. This is a jelly formula and some people may want more coats for complete coverage. A note: HDYLTA will come with new fan brush.
Bonparsco Lotion: An aloe lotion that’s rich with skin-loving Shea and Cocoa butters. The scent is Toasted Marshmallows which will remind you of sitting around a warm fire roasting marshmallows.
From left to right: before application, right after application, 5 minutes after application.
I’m fairly picky about my lotions, especially hand lotions. I loathe the feeling of greasy hands and often have to wipe down my palms because they feel slimy. Suffice to say, my standards are high: but Bonparsco Lotion exceeded them! Right after application, my hands are greasy; between 5-7 minutes after application, the lotion has soaked in and I don’t even have to wipe down my hands.
The scent also is really lovely; not heavy enough that I get a headache, not so light I don’t even smell it.
Fun gradient using both How Do You Like Them Apples and Let’s Get Toasted
Phew, I’d forgotten how hard writing reviews was! I hope you’ve enjoyed reading and don’t forget to check out my Instagram and Facebook pages for swatch videos and more photos. Plus I’ll have more nail art coming soon!

Hello all! I know it’s been quiet around here but due to familial issues, end of school, and business stuff, I’m wiped out! But as always, there is polish to make things better. Today I have swatches of the upcoming Arctic Frost Flowers from Pretty Jelly to show you. This polish will be available this coming weekend, June 7-10, for $12 and I believe no cap.
Polishes used:
1 coat of base coat
3 thin coats of DRK Nails Gruum Gruum [August 2018 HHC]

This is an insane magnetic polish. I know it doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles (flakies, holo, etc) but the magnetic properties of this are just out of this world. I did have to shake it quite a bit to get the magnetic bits all mixed up, but once I did…ooohhhhweeeeee!
Be Happy and Buy Polish
