Bluebird Lacquer Isn’t She Loverly

Bluebird Lacquer Isn’t She Loverly

Boy has this week been a doozy! Normally I work from home but this whole week I’ve been going into the office for two reasons: 1) It’s hot as hell in my apartment and working in a sauna isn’t exactly fun and 2) There have been a lot of changes at work and we are all working extra hard to catch up get our stuff in order. This has made for a kind of stressful week, but I still enjoy the challenge no matter how much I gripe. Today I am sharing one of the many PPU polishes that are currently available for purchase. Bluebird Lacquer Isn’t She Loverly is such a pretty polish, and I can’t wait to show you my swatches below. Continue reading “Bluebird Lacquer Isn’t She Loverly”

Isn’t it crazy that August is upon on? It’s been heating up here so I’m not looking forward to the next couple of months. This week has gone by rather quickly and I’m so glad that it’s the weekend. Later this month, my nephew is starting pre-k so I’m trying to plan something fun for him before he starts school. I don’t know if I should take him to an amusement park or something else.  Today I have a polish to share with you that I bought a while ago but hadn’t gotten a chance to swatch. Colors by Llarowe This Side of Heaven is part of the Let’s Head To The Beach Collection that featured a few UP polishes. Let’s check out some swatches below.

Cadillacquer Some People Are Immune To Good Advice

Don’t we all have that one friend who always asks for advice and they basically disregard any and all good advice that you give them? I know that everyone is responsible for their own choices, but hot damn…don’t ask me for advice if you’ve already made up your mind to just light and throw the match in the dumpster. That’s why when I saw the name of this polish, I knew I had to have it. Cadillacquer Some People Are Immune To Good Advice is one of the 5 shades from the All I Need Collection that came out earlier this year. Let me show you some swatches.

I don’t know about you, but I feel like I had a really nice weekend. I didn’t do much, but I spent some time with friends and just relaxed. Work has been pretty busy but not in a bad way, so time is just flying by. I look forward to my weekends just so that I can chill out watching stuff on Netflix/Hulu. Speaking of Netflix, have you seen the movie Extinction? I won’t ruin the plot, but I really liked it! I am also looking forward to catching up on OITNB. So much stuff to see, so little time! Anyway, today I am going to show you KBShimmer Hard To Empress which is a beautiful polish that I purchased recently. Let’s check out some swatches below.

KBShimmer Sandy PPU August 2018

I’m kinda freaking out that it’s almost August. I mean, it seems that Summer is just rushing by! I am not complaining because I hate the heat and I don’t have AC, but it’s kind of scary that the next thing I know it will be 2019. If you keep up with all the happenings in Polish Pickup, you would know that the hardworking ladies from PPU took July off which gave makers the opportunity bring back fan favorites. Now that August is around the corner, makers are taking their inspiration from musicals. For the month of August, Christy took her inspiration from Grease and brought you KBShimmer Sandy. Let’s take a look at it below. Continue reading “KBShimmer Sandy PPU August 2018”

Hello there! Are you melting yet? The last few days have been unbearable, and I almost want to cry when I think that this is just the beginning of the Summer season. Living in a coastal city, I do not have AC because it’s not usually this hot here, but I guess global warming is here to stay. I think I have to suck it up and get at least a portable AC unit to help me survive the Summer. Are you ready for some fun news? Starting this month, Color4Nails will have 1-2 guest makers who will be creating group custom exclusive shades that will be up for pre-order.

It is a little surreal that Fall collections are starting to pop up when Summer is barely getting underway. Fortunately, it has not been ridiculously hot here lately, but I know that it’s just a matter of time before the heat really gets going. Last week I went looking for polish stuff at some of my usual haunts and lo and behold, I saw some of the new Fall collections. I did one of my usual grabby hands rituals and got way more stuff than I should have. Are you ready to check out the China Glaze Ready to Wear Collection for Fall 2018? Let’s look at my swatches below. Continue reading “China Glaze Ready To Wear Collection Fall 2018”

Hello there! Long time no blog! I know I’ve been MIA for a while, but I really felt like I needed a break. It wasn’t so much about being tired of nail stuff or blogging, I was just feeling mentally and physically down.

I have definitely still been looking at all the new stuff coming out and I have indulged a bit, so you’ll be seeing some of the new stuff soon on my blog. Today I have the latest collection from one of my favorite salon brands; the Zoya Jelly Brites collection is a trio of saturated jellies that you can wear alone or layer to create some fun combinations.
