Press Samples // Some Paid PR

Happy Saturday! I have 21 items from the Hella Handmade Creations February 2023 shop to share tonight!

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.

Be sure to check out my YouTube application video for all 21 items as well:

My lighting set up was changed. The new lamps give a much truer to color photo with less Photoshop manipulation. So now, since I use artificial lighting due to my day job, my new set up involves 2 Neatfi XL Lamps from Amazon (affiliate link) as well as this Daylight Company Duo Daylight Lamp (affiliate link).

Let’s jump right in and take a look at what stunning creations makers have this month!

Red Eyed Lacquer | Spooky Warmth Da Balm-er

Theme: Weather

Description: Da Balm-er is a cross between a balm and body butter. It’s creamy like a body butter but has a more emollient feel like a balm would. It’s an intensive treatment you can use anywhere (I love it on cuticles of course) but a little goes a long way. If you use too much – it will feel very oily (like a balm would) so start with a little and build up if you need more.

Spooky Warmth is a peppermint mocha scent, and my nose pick that up. The mocha tones are a bit stronger with just a subtle bite of peppermint (to my nose at least)

Price: $9.00 | Cap: 50
