Press Samples of the Polished Gamers Box
November 2021 | Tomb Raider
Happy Saturday! I’m really late with this post, so I’ve been sharing my swatches in the Polished Gamers Box FB group. Basically – my blog was running slow for some reason and Nick decided to switch up some things (I really don’t know what the lingo is… that’s why he does it all) and well, my blog did a swap of sorts and was down on and off for a couple days so I was unable to post. So today will be a flurry of posts, swatching and finishing up packing from my blog sale.
Also, why did I think it was a good idea to hold a blog sale during the Black Friday/Holiday time frame?
First up post wise – we’re going to look at the Polished Gamers Box November 2021 Tomb Raider themed shop.
I have 7 shades to share this month with a nice mix of shades – but primarily fall looking ones. Today IS the final day to order – so jump on it while you still can.
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues Peel Off Base and Vibrant Vinyls Fast & Hard Top Coat. I purchased the Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues, but the Vibrant Vinyls Top Coat is a PR item sent to me for review. I do however admin for both Fan Groups for those 2 brands.
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).
Lets jump in and take a look!
Bluebird Lacquer | I See Your Point

Jen & Berries | Tomb with a View

Lemming Lacquer | Temple Fire

This shade is slightly deeper in person – the jelly base lets the light pass through it and brightens it up a bit more than the base should be.
