Happy Saturday! I finally dragged myself out of bed and while I listen to Nick still sleeping… I decided to get some posts done. First up – I have the Hella Handmade Creations August 2022 post to share!
You know what sounds good right now? A bagel. I could really go for a bagel. C’mon Nick – wake up. Maybe I should do something innocent like pretend to clean and make just enough noise to wake him up and say “Oh since you’re up… let’s go get coffee and bagels!”
Anyways.
I have 18 items this month to share… and we’re feeling very Fall this month.
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues Peel Off Base, and Sweet & Sour Lacquer Gloss Sauce . I purchased the Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues, Sweet & Sour Lacquer gifted me their Gloss Sauce.
I do use artificial lighting for my photos. I get the most done at night, so I swatch a lot at night. My current setup uses GlamCor Pro LIghts and I use the Ultra X Model and this Daylight Company Duo Daylight Lamp (affiliate link).
Let’s jump right in and take a look at what stunning offers makers have this month!

Red Eyed Lacquer | Everything…. Except Someone to Share It With” Tamesies
Theme: Toy Story
Description: Everything…Except Someone To Share It With is a deliciously scented hair oil. This one is described as having:
top notes of coconut and apple candy. Middle notes of pecans, pralines and sweet fluffy marshmallows. Bottom notes of Vanilla Pod, Tonka and Musk.
To my nose.. the nutty portions come out – pecans and pralines and give it a slightly earthy scent – but then I can also smell the vanilla and mashmallows which lighten it up. It smells almost like a rice crispy treat with nuts added to it. Nick actually took this one to use as a beard oil because it’s not too sweet and it’s incredibly pleasant.
When I use Tamesies in my hair, I add a few squirts into my hand, rub my palms together and scrunch the product into my damp hair after a shower. I do have long, thick but fine hair, so I do require about 4-5 pumps of product for my hair. I avoid the top of my head because my scalp tends to be oily, but the ends dry out and Tamesies has helped a ton, plus is adds a nice scent to my hair.
Price: $12.00 | Cap: 50
