Press Samples for Polish Pickup
December 2019 | Winter Is Coming

I have the final Polish Pickup post for 2019. Hard to believe another year is almost over… but at least we’re going out with a bang! Today we’re going to take a look at the Polish Pickup December 2019 Winter Is Coming shop!

This month the sales dates are changing. Instead of our typical Friday – Monday format, it will be a few days early and run from Monday – Friday. So mark your calendars for December 2nd – December 6th. This is to help expedite shipping a bit, but also give some breathing room for makers and PPU staff for the holidays.

This month I have 102 items to share with you all. It was a busy month, but as always – it was a fun month and putting the final collage together always makes me think “I did HOW many?!” but here we are.

The theme this month is ‘Winter Is Coming’ which left makers open to a lot of possibilities. They could go the Game of Thrones route or Winter in general. Anything from Winter traditions to holidays to memories to anything that freezes your little tush off. With the assortment I reviewed, there’s actually a nice, balanced mix of GoT and Winter in general.

This is an EXTREMELY photo heavy post. As of right now it’s 101 items with 3-7 photos PER item. If there is something specific you are looking for – on desktop hit CTRL + F and type what you are searching for. Otherwise, enjoy the long scroll down the page, and of course the giveaway at the end.

Let’s get this show on the road.

Description: Cherry On The Rocks is a slightly rusty cherry red jelly base loaded with red shimmer, scattered holographic glitter, small iridescent rainbow glitter, metallic red and silver holographic glitter, and rainbow flakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

The glitters within give this shade a light texture, but 1 coat of top coat should still smooth it over.

Price: $12.00 | Cap: 80 US / 5 UK

Inspiration: Poorly plowed roads that sparkle in the sun, the residual snow can be so brilliant sunglasses are needed

Price: $12.00 | No Cap

Anchor & Heart Lacquer | Siren’s Cure Cuticle Creme

Inspiration: The bright, fruity scents of holiday cooking & baking!

Description: Siren’s Cure Cuticle Creme is an interesting consistency. It’s whipped, so it feels light, but has a nice thickness to it at the same time. When applying, it reminds me of butter. It starts off feeling thickish, but melts away when in contact with body heat. It’s a really nice consistency and doesn’t feel heavy or greasy.

The scent is Merry Cranberry and it smells like the holidays. It has that crisp cranberry scent with the sweetness of raspberries. Basically the holidays minus the cinnamon scent.

Ingredients: Organic Aloe Leaf Juice, Organic Coconut Oil, DMAE Bitartrate, Emulsifying Wax, Stearic Acid, Glycerin, Organic Jojoba Seed Oil, Meadowfoam Seed Oil, Avocado Fruit Oil, Witch Hazel Water, Phenoxyethanol, Vitamin E, Sunflower Seed Oil, MSM, Organic White Willow Bark Extract, Organic Neem Seed Oil, Organic Rosemary Leaf Extract, Organic Sunflower Seed Oil, Organic Alcohol, Xanthan Gum, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate

Inspiration: The ice planet Hoth from Star Wars. After destroying the first Death Star the rebel alliance is forced to flee and set up a new base of operations. The remote ice world of Hoth provides a beautiful but dangerous landscape for the rebels, complete with snow monsters and freezing temperatures that might just earn you a dunk in the bacta tank.

Price: $13.00 | Cap: 100 US / 10 UK

Baroness X | Acetone Antidote in I Want A Pink Xmas Tree!

Inspiration: non-traditional holiday trees

Description: Acetone Antidote is back – and I look forward to this every month. This month we have I Want A Pink Xmas Tree! which honestly sounds like a battle I would have with Nick.. mainly knowing he would say no. The scent is a powdery evergreen scent (the powdery scent cuts the harshness of evergreen) with light notes of berries, green apple and spun sugar. The scents shouldn’t work together… but they do. You get powder, shrubbery, sweet and tart all in one.

My nose primarily picks up tart apple and powder. It’s sweet but light.

If you are new to Acetone Antidote – this is a small vial of liquid that you pour into your polish remover in order to cut the harshness. I generally use a full vial for 10-12oz of remover, but you can do less if you prefer. Most use it with Acetone remover, but I use it in Remove + so it bumps up the moisturizing properties.

Ingredients: glycerin, jojoba oil, h2o, fragrance, poly 80

Price: $4.25 | Cap: 145 US / 10 UK

Baroness X | Ice Bubble Flambé (Thermal)

Inspiration: Our inspo is month is flammable ice bubbles that form in ice in some lakes. Most famously from Lake Abraham in Alberta, Canada. Methane bubbles are produced by decaying organic matter in the sediments at the bottom of lakes or rivers. The bubbles freeze when temperatures plunge.

Bee’s Knees Lacquer | Blood Magic

Inspiration: Inspired by the way dragon eggs are hatched in Game of Thrones

Description: Blood Magic is a rusty reddish burgundy jelly base with bright red to green shimmer and red o green ghost flakes. My photos do pull a bit bright, but I find the 3 fingered posed photo to be closest to accurate (but still it’s a bit darker in person.) I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $13.00 | No Cap

Bee’s Knees Lacquer | Smarter Than The Average Dragon Tinted Lip Balm

Inspiration: Drogon from Game of Thrones

Description: Smarter Than Your Average Dragon is an unscented shimmery red lip balm. It’s definitely a pink leaning red, and on me it comes out strawberry pinkish red with my lip pigmentation. I found this slightly sheerer than previous months, so 1 swipe will give you a nice wash of pinky red color, but it builds up nicely. On my lips in the photo below is 3 swipes over my lips.

Price: $5.00 | No Cap

Beyond The Nail | Sansational

Inspiration: Sansa Stark in her Pink Dress

Crystal Knockout | Pastel Mirror

Inspiration: An iced-over lake reflecting the winter sunset

Description: Pastel Mirror is a delicate rose pink chrome base with shifts of purple and gold and subtle iridescent shimmer. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

This is slightly stronger in person, but the paleness of my skin and the paleness of the polish washed everything out. It’s a very delicate shade in general though.

Price:$11.00 | Cap: 80 US/ 10 UK

Cupcake Polish | The Santa Clause

Inspiration: The Santa Clause Movie starring Tim Allen

Description: The Santa Clause is a burgundy red based multichrome that shifts from red to gold to green. Certain angles, this polish is deep and vampy, and others it’s bright and cheery. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Inspiration: Cuticula was inspired by a winter sunset and played off the colors of the photo of berry and lemon yellow shades.

Description: This month’s scent is Blackberry Lemon Curd, which smells like fresh squeezed lemons and berries mellowed out by vanilla, with a bit of fresh cream. It’s in my top 3 favorite Cuticula scents.

The duo this month includes Mic Drop base coat, which is a ridge filling and sticky base coat in 1 bottle. It’s 5 free and dries down to a pale, sheer milky base. Limitless Top Coat is also 5 Free, and it’s a quick dry top coat that gives your mani a nice shine, and if you float it… it plays nice with nail art too.

Price: $16.00 | Cap: 200 Duos US / 20 Duos UK

Cuticula | Fairy Frost Cloud Cover Matte Top Coat

Inspiration: a photo of a fairy standing in the snow.

I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

The first photo below is the best of mine for transition colors. We just had colds sweep through our house and my body temp is still all over the place, so the transition tried to go back to cold too quickly for a photo session.

Price: $12.00 | Cap: 180

Stamping Plate by DRK Nails | Designer 3 (Snow Flake)

Inspiration: A rainbow in the winter

Description: Designer 3 Snowflake Stamping Plate is a larger imaged plate that gives room for a lot of creativity. There are large snowflakes all over the plate that connect, and in some cases, they can also pass as flowers (so it goes from a Winter to Spring stamping plate). It’s deeper etched and images were super easy to pick up using a clear stamper.

Price: $7.50 | Cap: 50

DRK Nails | Gratitude

Inspiration: Rainbows in the Winter

Description: Gratitude is a pale silvery foil finish shade filled with pink to green aurora shimmer, holographic microflakes and iridescent blue to purple microflakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $12.00 | Cap: 130

Frozen Lake Stamping Plate | Esmaltes da Kelly

Inspiration: Frozen Lake

Description: Esmaltes da Kelly brings us a fall to Winter like plate with a nice variety of images. I did have some initial trouble picking up images with thinner stamping polishes, so I do recommend thicker, more pigmented ones. Could be my user error – but I was cruising along and came across that bump. Once I swapped stamping polish brands, it was smooth sailing.

Price: $14.00 | Cap: 100

Emily de Molly | Capture The Dream (Magnetic)

Inspiration: Blades of Glory

Description: Capture The Dream in a dark purple creme base with silvery white magnetic pigment. Very reactive to a magnetic, and a more simplistic magnetic that’s still stunning. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $11.00 | Cap: None

Esmaltes da Kelly | Frozen Lake

Inspiration: Frozen Lake

Description: Frozen Lake is a clear base loaded with micro glitters! You’ll find an assortment of galaxy gold, silver, blue, green, lavender microglitters, as well as violet shimmer and purple and silver holographic flecks mixed in. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

The glitter particles are tiny, so there is a very mild texture, but 1 coat of top coat smoothed it over.

Price: $10.00 | Cap: 150

Ethereal Lacquer | Ice Fire

Inspiration: Inspired by the magic of Iceland’s Blue Lagoon

Description: Ice Fire is a multichrome that shifts teal to blue to purple to magenta and has an almost foil like finish. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $11.00 | No Cap

Ginger Fizz Boutique | First Snow Wax

Inspiration: There’s nothing quite like the first snowflakes of the season. Time seems to stand still while children and adults alike get lost in the magical world of a winter wonderland. You are taken back to your childhood days of making snow angles, building snowmen, and sledding down the biggest hills in town. It’s no wonder as adults we are still mystified by the power of a single, unique snowflake. Enjoy melting this scent and try creating some of your own paper snowflakes while you wait on the first snowflakes of the season.

Description: First Snow is a mini wax loaf that has lilac, light turquoise, and sky blue layers topped with three white, sparkling, snowflakes. This mini loaf is scented with juicy pear and leafy greens dusted with sugared cinnamon spices. The top notes are leaf green, orange, citrus and lime, middle notes are ripe pear and apple, and bottom notes are sugar and slight woodiness.

This is a very welcoming scent with milder fruits that give you that bit of juicy fragrance and the leafy greens and cinnamon balance it out to make it a good home fragrance that isn’t too sweet, but not too “holiday” My nose primarily picks up juicy pear, lime and sugar.

Price: $8.00 | Cap: 75 US / 25 UK

Girly Bits | I Came, I Thaw, I Conquered

Inspiration:  Ice Age (the movie)

Just wanted to mention when naming this polish came up, I voted for Ice Hole. Pam… I want to see an Ice Hole polish sometime.

Description: Ice Hole I Came, I Thaw, I Conquered is a soft lilac purple jelly base loaded with blue to aqua to purple to pink to violet shimmer that gives a glowy look, plus a subtle scattered holographic effect. It is on the sheer side when you first apply, but don’t freak out – it will build up nicely. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $13.00 | No Cap

Glisten & Glow | Cuticle Remover Pen & Cuticle Oil Pen Duo

Inspiration: None

Description: This month Glisten & Glow brings us a duo pack of her cuticle remover and cuticle oil – both scented in Winter Cheer! The scent is a custom blend of orange, cinnamon, clove, cranberry and baked vanilla. My nose especially picks up on the orange and clove, but it’s a very warm scent. I detected a hint of the vanilla, but not the cranberry… all noses are different though. It’s a nice, holiday scent.

Glisten & Glow’s cuticle remover softens and removes excess cuticle as well as eponychium skin and comes in an easy to use twist-up pen style applicator. The cuticle oil is in the same style twist up pen – and I actually keep this duo in my desk drawer at work. It’s very easy to carry.

Directions for Cuticle Remover: Apply generously to the cuticle area and let sit for 60 seconds. Next, gently push back with your favorite tool, I personally love my Germanikure Crystal Cuticle Pusher (that’s an affiliate link) Finally, wash hands and cuticles thoroughly with soap and water.

ingredients: distilled water, potassium hydroxide, coconut oil and fragrance Glisten & Glow Cuticle Oil Pen is a custom blend of Jojoba Oil, Vitamin E oil, grapeseed oil, sweet almond oil, sunflower oil, argan oil, castor oil, acai berry extract, tea tree oil and fragrance oil

Glisten & Glow | Olive, The Other Reindeer

Inspiration: Based on the children’s book and TV/DVD of Olive, The Other Reindeer written by Vivian Walsh about a jack Russell terrier dog, Olive who tries to save Christmas and help Santa deliver the presents to all the children. The play on words with OLIVE and “All of the” sure causes quite the mix up one little dog’s quest to save the day, not to mention all the characters that get in his way!

Description: Olive, The Other Reindeer is a white crelly base packed with various size and shape red, green and gold glitters. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $12.00 | Cap:160

I did these photos while still having a fever from a cold & flu bug, so the middle shade is only peeking out a little for photos.

Price: $12.00 | Cap: 180

Heather’s Hues | No Two Snowflakes Are Alike

Inspiration: Macro photography of snowflakes

Description: No Two Snowflakes Are Alike is a densely packed effect topper that can be worn alone in 3 coats, or used over a base color.

I used 1 coat over a black creme for these photos.

Price: $11.00 | Cap: 100

Stamper by Hit the Bottle Polishes | Double Shot No Ice

Inspiration: None

Description: The Double Shot, No Ice Stamper is a dual headed stamper. It comes apart in 3 pieces, a short barrel holding a stamper head, a long barrel with a stamper head and the cap (shown in photo below) The stamper heads are semi firm, with a little squish to them and are slightly sticky.

I’ve been using this same stamper, but with “ice” (crystals in the small barrel) so I’m familiar and comfortable with this style of stamper. What I usually do is use the long barrel end to stamp with, and I used the short barrel to burnish powder on and stamp with. Powders make the stamping heads slightly cloudy over time, so this way I’m not messing up my main stamper. You can also not use the smaller side and just have it hold onto a replacement stamping head.

Each month for Polish Pickup – when you see any stamp I’ve done – it’s done with this stamper (again, the “ice” version)

You will receive the 3 piece stamper and a scraper card in a clear box.

Price: $10.50 | Cap: 150

Hit the Bottle | Staring at the Embers (Stamping Polish)

Inspiration: being cozy in front of a glowing winter’s fire

Description: Staring At The Embers is a bright orange leaning coral creme with a very subtle gold sheen to it. It can work as a 1 coat creme or a stamping polish. I used 1 coat on my index and pinky, and stamped over black for middle and ring. It does dry to a satin finish, so use top coat to give it a glossy look.

Price: $8.50 | Cap: 200

Indie by Patty Lopes | Welcome to my Castle

Inspiration: Frozen’s Ice Castle

Description: Welcome To My Castle is a sheer white crelly base with holographic blue micro glitters, as well as white and blue glitters. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $11.00 | Cap: 80

Inspiration: We wanted to incorporate both GoT and a normal wintery theme. The color was inspired by a sunrise over a snow covered home and field and the name was inspired by a famous line from Game of Thrones

Description: A Polish Has No Name is a pale grey creme with stunning copper shimmer that is slightly larger particle so it looks like tiny flecks. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $11.00 | No Cap

Inspiration: Inspired by LOL Winter Disco

Price: $13.00 | Cap: 400

KBShimmer | Cocoa & Cookies Sugar Scrub

Inspiration: Hot Chocolate & Christmas Cookies

Description: KBShimmer is back with her sugar scrub, and I swear this one makes you want to grab a spoon and dig in. Don’t though… don’t eat the body products.

Cocoa & Cookies smells exactly how you’d expect. If you took a fresh baked sugar cookie… and dipped it into a mug of hot chocolate and took a big whiff.. this is what that would smell like. It’s deliciously sweet and chocolately. I find the cocoa to be the stronger scent, but it’s a milk chocolate cocoa, so it’s semi mild and smooth, then I pick up the bakery sugar cookie scent.

KBShimmer’s sugar scrubs are good for all over the body or as a hand scrub, the sugar particles are medium grit so they do a good job getting dry spots on your body situated.

Price: $10.00 | No Cap

KBShimmer | Un-brrr-lieveable (Thermal)

Inspiration: Ice Castles

Description: Un-brrr-lieveable is a thermal that transitions from a cool toned purple (cold) and transitions to a light medium blue (warm) with iridescent flakes that flash pink, purple, aqua, green and gold, as well as silver holographic microglitters.

My camera freaked out with this one and the colors aren’t 100% accurate. The purple is a more vibrant purple and the blue goes a few shades lighter. I do recommend checking out the listing for a closer look at other shots.

Price: $10.00 | No Cap

Lemming Lacquer | Flame of Hope

Inspiration: The Little Match Girl by Hans Christian Andersen

Description: Flame Of Hope is a navy blue crelly base loaded with holographic microglitter, red to bronze to copper shifting shimmer, as well as green to gold to orange to red iridescent flakes. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Inspiration: Edward Gorey’s Gashlycrumb Tinies

Description: W is for Winnie is a cold grey-blue jelly base packed with holographic microflakes, aurora shimmer and iridescent flakes that shift between orange, red, gold, and green. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

No photo does this polish justice. The shift, shimmer and holo play so nicely together and it’s a “see it in person and be wow’d” kind of color.

Price: $13.00 | Cap: 190

Lucky 13 Lacquer | Nuclear Winter Wonderland (Thermal & Glow In The Dark)

Inspiration: nuclear winter, Crawl out through the fallout, baby!

Description: Nuclear Winter Wonderland is a steel blue (cold) to dusty peachy pink (warm) thermal with white shimmer and crimson to copper to gold color shifting shimmer mixed in. I dropped the ball a bit – as it’s a glow in the dark and I was so focused on the thermal that I forgot to photograph it. It’s a strong red glow in the dark effect.

I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos. The polish dries down to a satin like finish without a topper.

Price: $10.00 | Cap: 140

Being the mom of a 13 year old boy… this is a must have product in our bathroom. I do have bottles from past shops that I have brought to work as well since it’s a public restroom on our floor. Everyone at work knows where I keep them so they can grab them if they need. So office or home – it’s nice to have and it works.

Price: $6.00 | No Cap

Nailed It Nail Polish | Peppermint Forest Bye, Girl Barrier

Inspiration: Inspired by Mr. Mint from Candy Land

Description: Bye, Girl Barrier in Peppermint Forest, inspired by Mr Mint from Candy Land! This is a dual use product. You can use it as a latex cuticle barrier for nail art… and like I do – as a peel off base coat. It has no color so it dries down clear and doesn’t interfere with swatching or altering colors.

Want to know how I get through hundreds of swatches without my cuticles shriveling up? Products like this.

Brush 1 coat on, wait about a minute and a half for it to dry (when it’s clear, dry) paint, photograph, peel and go. It minimizes use of remover and still forms a nice base to avoid staining too.

It’s latex though, so if you have an allergy to it, don’t use.

This is lightly scented with a creamy vanilla scent and touch of peppermint so it doesn’t smell like straight up latex and is easier to handle.

Price: $6.75 | Cap: 45

Description: The “three’s a crowd” bracelet trio comes ready to be gifted with a fabric bag and a winter themed card so you are never caught empty handed! Perfect to gift, but so sparkly, gorgeous and easy to wear that you might be tempted to keep them for yourself.

Featuring a wintery color palette, these stacking bracelets are primarily shades of silver and pewter with accents of blue and blurple. Each stretch bracelet is 7 inches. These 3 coordinating stacking bracelets look stunning layered together, but also make a statement when worn alone.

These are really nicely done and make nice arm candy. The stretch piece inside is a thin, clear stretchy piece, and I had no issues with it feeling like it might snap. Perfect for wearing with jeans or on a night out.

Price: $15.00 | Cap: 25 Sets

Bath Fizz by Pepper Pot Polish | Warm Fuzzy

Inspiration: Inspired by your favorite cozy blanket and sitting by a roaring fire.

Description: Warm Fuzzy Bath Fizz is a nice, warm scent. Sweet spice, fragrant woods, tonka bean, light and dark musk, resin and rum. Nick really loved the scent because it wasn’t so “girly” and the scent lingers awhile after. I find myself sprinkling a little in the sink and running warm water just to scent the bathroom.

Bath Fizz is like a crushed bath bomb. Run water and then pour in your desired amount and it will fizz a bit and scent your bath water while also adding some body softening properties for a nice, silky smooth feeling after.

Quixotic Polish | Make it Stop

Inspiration: Inspired by Mariah Carey’s “All I want for Christmas, is you” 

I don’t listen to radio or anything much, and I can honestly say I don’t know all the words to this song. I’ve only heard snippets in movies, commercials and Del’s Youtube.

Starlight and Sparkles | Frost Flowers

Inspiration: Inspired by frost flowers, or sea ice, are ice crystals that grow on thin ice over water. The feathery ice crystal structures they form tend to grow in groups, and look like glittering flowers in a field of sparkling ice. Frost flowers or ice flowers are also what a lot of people call the beautiful patterns of crystals that can form in ice on windows and windshields. I always loved those patterns in ice, so finding out they basically come in 3D, and that there are places where there are whole “meadows” of them, I knew I had to pick frost flowers for my polish inspiration this month!

Description: Frost Flowers is a blue leaning periwinkle crelly base with blue to purple and teal to violet iridescent aurora flakes, pearl white microflakes, and blue to purple and purple to pink iridescent shimmer. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Starlight and Sparkles | Flurry in a Bottle Snow Globe

Inspiration: Inspired by snow globes!

Description: Flurry in a Bottle is a snow globe in a polish bottle! It contains blue and silver metallic and holographic glitter, blue-purple iridescent glitter, and two sizes of holographic silver snowflakes. Shake it up and watch the magic! The silver snowflakes are larger and heavier, and fall more quickly, while the smaller glitters drift more slowly downward. After it’s shaken up, you can tilt and flip the bottle, watching the snowflakes move, and how they move the other glitter as they fall.

The polish snow globe comes with a lanyard clip and a small ball chain with clasp (good for attaching to a purse or tote), as well as a lobster clasp with a ring on the end (good for using a ribbon loop to hang it like an ornament).

7.5mL bottle, full height approximately 3 and 1/8″

Price: $7.50 | Cap: 185

Inspiration: Inspired by Tyrion Lannister and his love for wine and knowledge.

Description: My favorite hand scrub! This month Stella Chroma went with a warm red wine scent with a woodsy finish. Reminds me of a Cabernet that Nick enjoys. I usually bring these to work to use… but this one will stay home. Don’t need them thinking I’m a lush.

Stella Chroma’s Emulsified Sugar Scrub is an incredibly fine particle sugar that’s densely packed in. Dig a little out of the jar, massage into your hands then rinse and keep rubbing it in while rinsing. Your hands will feel smooth, soft and incredible.

Sweet & Sour Lacquer | Unbeleafably Evergreen

Inspiration: During the winter months, we usually rush to cover our plants to keep them from freezing over. Hellebores actually love the cold and thrive during the winter months. They start blooming around December, and continue through mid-Spring. However, hellebores are categorized as perennials and evergreen. Meaning, that they last for what seems an infinite amount of time, and they retain their green leaves year round.

Description: Unbeleafably Evergreen is a sheer golden green base with flakes that shift shifts from lime-blue-gold, violet-blue-green, and red-copper-gold-green. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

The Soapy Chef | Winter is Here Whipped Body Butter

Inspiration: Inspired by Hot Apple Cider

Description: This is a fluffy whipped body butter. It moisturizes like crazy but doesn’t leave your skin greasy. Perfect for winter. Smells like hot cider, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg.

It’s basically a hug in a jar. My nose picks up the apple cider and nutmeg the most, with a hint of clove.

The consistency is thick but airy at the same time and it melts so nicely. I used it on my legs after shaving and WOW they felt incredible.

ingredients: Cocoa butter, btms 50, Distilled water, vegetable glycerin, fragrance oil, Germall plus liquid preservative, freshly grated cinnamon stick

Price: $10.00 | Cap: 50

QDTC by Top Shelf Lacquer | Winter Sparkles

Inspiration: inspired by the frozen twinkling branches in winter time in my area of the country (midwest / Cincinnati).

Description: Winter Sparkles is an actual glitter top coat, not a topper. It’s a quick dry top coat with copper holographic microglitters suspended within. You can use it to top your mani and go without need for another top coat layer.

This is fun and fast drying, but I don’t find it as glossy when dried down as a normal quick dry, I’m guessing due to the pigment/glitter mixed in. But it still works incredibly well.

Price: $9.00 | Cap: 300

Turtle Tootsie Polishes | Purple Cozy Blanket

Inspiration: A Cozy Blanket

Description: Purple Cozy Blanket is a deep dark purple linear holographic polish with pink, green and gold shimmers and black holo micro glitter.

Price: $11.50 | Cap: 200

4-1 Nail Serum By Vanessa Molina

Inspiration: Winter

Description: This is a 4-in-1 Nail Serum that is made to strengths nails, nourishes nails and cuticles, cleanse and protects hands.

One thing that surprised me, is that this is a spray. Not a pump or wand. It sprays onto your nails. You do need to use quick bursts when pumping the nozzle to avoid a stream (that looks dirtier written out than I intended) so you get the spray on your nails and cuticles. It’s not a heavy serum, so it soaks in quick. It does have a floral like, slightly perfumy scent to it.

I’ve only been using it for a week, so I can’t say whether it’s helping or not. I haven’t had any bad reactions to it and my nails and cuticles look good still after over 100 swatches done in 3 days – so that’s good, right?

Price: $8.50 | Cap: 100

Vapid. | Doing Yeti Things (Thermal)

Inspiration:

Description: Doin’ Yeti Things is a thermal that transitions from a pale blue tinged grey (warm) to medium almost turquoise blue (cold) with green to pink to gold shifting shimmer and a bit of scattered holo. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Price: $13.00 | Cap: 300
