Hey all! Another Polish Pickup and the theme is Elements. I am going to be honest and say meh to this theme. I feel like the themes are uninspired lately or maybe I miss inspiration from indies themselves as they probably get more inspo from themes they create as opposed to PPU forcing makers to fit into their theme. I happen to enjoy all three polishes from this month, so let's take a look.

Well, I'm back with one more post on the Golden Hour collection from Jessica Cosmetics, but I know I'll be using the colors all the time in nail art and such. The collection is called Golden Hour, so I had to do a kind of sunset gradient look, and this is what I came up with.

Happy Monday, everyone! Today I have a simple and fun nail art to share. Summer 2021 has been all about the simple and fun nail are and this look is included. Of course, I wanted to do some art with the Zoya Dreamin' collection but I don't know, it did not exactly give me summer vibes at first. Well, I change my mind! It's totally summer!

Whenever I get cremes for Zoya, especially pink cremes, I like to compare them to others that I have in my stash. Really, it's a way for me to figure out what colors to donate and which are unique for my stash. So when I swatched the Dreamin' collection, a few felt familiar. I actually re-swatched these, so these are truly quick and dirty swatches for comparison reasons.

Like I mentioned in my Cosmic Pop post last month, I thought the Zoya Neons was the summer collection but turns out, they had three! Hah! So I am finally caught up with sharing all of the new Zoya releases. GO ME. Today I am sharing the Dreamin' collection, which is their actual summer collection (although it feels like a spring to summer transitional collection). So let's check it out!

Pusheen is a jack of all trades! Now, he sails. And why not? I guess July would be the perfect time of year to go on a boat. Of course, I had to simplify this look to fit on my nail, but I absolutely loveeeeee how it came out. So read the rest of my post for all the details!

Of course I wanted to do some nail art with the Zoya Neons. Although I wasn’t thrilled with how they worked on their own, I knew they would be nice with art. I really wanted to do some random vertical lines and so, here they are.

I was so excited when Zoya announced their Easy Neons, as many others were. These are supposed to be full coverage, no white base needed, neons. Well, you can certainly see my nail line in the first image, so there’s a hint of this collection. Let's check out this collection now!

Can you believe I am actually posting an HHC polish on time? They are always sent on time, I’m just always late. I love that Cynthia is exposing me to all new flowers. I have a Pinterest board of flowers I love and I’ve been having fun looking at these as I get the polishes in. This is available July 14-21, so let’s take a look at more photos.

I usually post nail polishes from Jessica Cosmetics but they have an entire hand and nail care line and they sent me a few items so I thought I would share. I’ve used their nail files and cuticle oils but and do enjoy their base and top coats. This is my first time trying their lotions and cuticle balm, so why not share it?

Seriously, as a 90s kid, I am not sure how I feel about my students embracing the trends I tried to forget hahah. I think about Carrie Bradshaw telling Jack Berger that NO WAY would a woman be caught in public with a scrunchie (high pitched voice). Well...now, she would cry haha. So everyone loves a smiley face and I was inspired by the new Jessica Cosmetics Golden Hour for some 90s art!

🎆Happy Fourth of July! 🎆 I had all the intentions of posting my Fourth of July nail art a few days ago but life got away from me and so I only did my nails last night and I did a really quick art. I looked back at my blog and realized I am mostly uninspired when it comes to Fourth of July nail art. I have some really awesome ones that I’ve done but lately my life has been about the simple. I pulled out colors I knew I wanted to use, thought of a few ideas, show them to my significant other, and I let him pick out my art. Also, if you still want to do some nail art, this took 30 minutes total so it was quick and easy if I do say so myself!
