KBShimmer Take the Stairs, September 2023 Polish Pickup

Press Sample

Apparently I had this sitting in drafts, just waiting to be published, but I truly thought I published it. My fault! Luckily, this polish is available this Friday, so you are all good to still get it. Polish pick up is inspired by my favorite holiday, Halloween. The theme this month is spooky with Haunted History.

Stella Chroma July 2023 Neon LE

Gift

Stella Chroma does a monthly mystery polish that she sends out to subscribers. I don’t currently subscribe to this, but I have subscribed to her mystery boxes in the past and loved them. It’s a chance for you to try new polishes that you might not otherwise purchase. I find that sometimes I love polishes so much more once they’re on my nails than in a bottle. For April’s color, Pam did an amazing pink neon. People went crazy for it and so she surprised everyone by creating a special, limited edition polish that is slightly different from the monthly mystery. She sold out in just a few hours. I know I’m going to be moving to autumn polishes soon, so I wanted to put on this polish before I no longer was in the neon mood. I don’t like my polishes sitting around untried. I only have two untried polishes right now and this is one of them.

1991 Totally Hair Barbie Inspired Art with Zoya Beachy Brights

 Press Sample

Ok so this might be the last Barbie-inspired manicure. I know I had the Totally Hair Barbie but I could not find that one. Well, looking at the dress online, I realized that the Zoya Beachy Brights were basically the same colors! So I set out to create a manicure like her dress!

KBShimmer Sugar Rush Rainbow Dotticure

 Press Sample

It's been a hot minute since I have done a dotticure. I had the KBShimmer Sugar Rush collection on my desk waiting to be put into my spreadsheet when I realized I hadn't officially done any art with the majority of the collection. I did do watermelon nails with the two reflectives from the collection, but I wanted to do more!

1994 Birthday Barbie Nail Art

 Press Sample

She's the prettiest present of all! So I still have not seen Barbie movie but the movie inspired me to look at Barbies, including my own, and create nail art. Well I have one particular Barbie that I loved so much, I never even opened it! Yup! It was the 1994 Birthday Barbie and for some reason, I thought it was so special, I did not want to play with it. I just wanted to look at it. Weird? Maybe. But who knows why we do things when we are little. So I fished out this Barbie and decided I needed to do nails based on her dress that I found to be so mesmerizing as a little kid!
