Press Samples for Hella Handmade Creations | November 2021
Happy Friday! It’s time for the Hella Handmade Creations November 2021 shop – and we’re ready for it!
I have 15 items to share this month – and it’s a nice Wintery assortment for the most part.
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues Peel Off Base, 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 in – shop opens on November 15th at 12:01am.

Heather’s Hues | WiTs Lotion
Theme:
Description: WiTs body lotion is a fast absorbing body lotion that doesn’t leave my hands greasy. The texture is light and creamy and a little goes a long way.
This month’s Wits Lotion is a scent called “Your Girlfriend is a Badass” and it’s a unisex fragrance that begins with top notes of fresh cotton and crisp ozone, followed by middle notes of white blossoms all on base notes of cashmere, amber, musk, and patchouli.
This scent is light to me and honestly smells like a load of cotton shirts straight outta the dryer. It’s very clean and only the slightest touch of floral but it’s not strong. The cotton comes out the winning dominant scent.
Price: $7.25 | Cap: 35
Luna Wax | I’ll Huff and I’ll Puff Wax
Theme: Folktales
Description: I’ll Huff and I’ll Puff is a scoopable wax in a 6 oz container and the scent is a blend of cranberries, candied ginger and vanilla glazed donuts.
I find this to be a warmer scent due to the ginger, but despite the vanilla glazed donut – it’s not super sweet. It’s a nice, calm, almost incense like scent. It reminds me or an incense I’d smell walking into a Berkeley shop (no patchouli or sandalwood, but it has that same type of welcoming scent)
Price: $10.50 | Cap: 75
LynBDesigns | Squid Goals (Magnetic)
Theme: Animal Magnetism
Description: Squid Goals is a deep indigo base with teal to purple shifting shimmer and silver lavender magnetic pigment, as well as holo flakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos, and I only magnetized the 2 middle nails to show it both ways.
Price: $13.00 | Cap: 200
