Press Samples // Some Paid PR

I’ve been waiting all day to make this post. My photos were done early, but I only had info on like… 4 of the 16 items I received so I was missing price, caps, etc. I saw the website say it would be up today… so I kept checking so I could type this up… and the time has finally come. I have 16 items for the Hella Handmade Creations June 2022 shop!

Okay, first off… how tf is it June already. My son is almost done with his Sophomore year and.. I’m not ready for this. His bff is flying in from California next weekend though and we’re going to spend a day in Boston – so yay!

Okay so.. I have 16 HHC items this month and it’s a nice assortment. Pinks, blues, purples and coppery golds.

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 on in before I lose steam cause it’s 10:15pm right now and I’m still getting over this ickiness – so I tucker out pretty quickly lately.

Description: Windrunner is a blurple jelly base filled with silver reflective glitter, gold to pink shifting pigment, as well as gold to pink to purple to teal iridescent flakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

This shade dries down with a slight texture, so you may need 2 coats of top coat to smooth (or a coat of glitter smoother and a coat of top coat.)

Luna Wax | This Is Diamonds Wax

Theme: Gem Stones

Description: This is Diamonds is a delicious scent blend of lemon slices, coconut cream pie and berry ice cream, and each wax piece is shaped like a diamond.

I honestly don’t smell much of the berry ice cream, these smell like lemon pound cake with coconut cream pie topping to me. The lemon bakery scent is the strongest to my nose, but the coconut cream pie is noticeable as a background player
