Nail Polish Facebook Groups You Should Join! Part 2-the fangirl ones!

So the second type of Facebook group are the ones that are specific to the brand, or just indie polish lovers. These groups are awesome as they often have group exclusive polishes, or sometimes group discounts- and this is where you'll hear news of new collections and goings on first! So here are some I'm a part of and can recommend. The first link is to the FB group, and I've also linked the shop too.

Vapicorns   Vapid Lacquer is a great brand with great polishes, "Nail Sauce" (which I love!!) and other things. They have fun mani contests, and announce their Vapid restocks there. I had a mix up in an order and they really have excellent customer service. Highly recommend.

Tonic Nail Polish   Tonic has a great following, for good reason! The polishes are gorgeous, the formulas are great, and they have great customer service!!!  I have to brag- I found Tonic when she still sold her polish on etsy, so I'm an early adopter! My first Tonics were Angelfish and Rainbowfish, both still available, and both beautiful!

The Howling Boutique's Wolf Pack  This is for the brand Supermoon Lacquer (she has an online boutique called Howling Boutique, where she sells really pretty jewelry). I really like this brand, I

have 10 of them so far- fun fact, I named one of the polishes in her Chosen Collection (Green Goddess)- she had her fans in her FB group suggest names and then vote on them.  The maker, Mardi, is really responsive.

Bee's Knees Buzz This is a new indie brand, and she has some gorgeous polishes! She does FB exclusives, and has info on releases and other things. I have 2 Bee's Knees polishes, and have already

tried one, which is unusual, lol.

Chaos and Crocodiles Cove  This is sometimes a hard brand to pin down, their restocks and new collections are few and far between, it seems, so being in the Facebook group is nice because you getChaos and Crocodiles

a heads up! Here is their website

Polish Idjits  This is the group for Supernatural Lacquer. I found this brand one day just messing around online, and I'm a huge fan of the show Supernatural. I have 12 of her polishes. Her FB group

is great for finding out about restocks.

ILNP Lovers Anonymous  I love this polish brand, but this isn't a super active group, but still fun! ILNP is known for their amazing polishes, super fast shipping, and amazing customer service!

Blush Beauties Blush is a newer brand to me, but I have already picked up 8 of her polishes! You can find reviews and new collection info. Blush is sold on etsy.

Fair Maidens: Fierce and Fabulous  I really like Fair Maiden polishes, their site is down for construction, but they are an amazing brand.

Pahlish Lovers  This is an active group, you'll always find people posting pictures of their manis and restock info. Addicting!!!! Pahlish

The CrowsToes Minion Crowalition  This one can get a little rowdy, especially on Friday (f-yeah Crowstoes.

Friday), but so fun! And good info on when the shop opens. Here's the website

Cupcake Nail Polish Lovers  I found Cupcake Nail Polish in 2015 with the polish everyone was raving about- Berry Good Looking. It's gorgeous, and you need it, lol. Same as with other groups- new

collections, reviews, etc.

Femme Fatale Fiends- this group has customs (and sometimes charity polishes), release info for planning purposes, and beautiful pictures of polishes! They ship from their Femme Fatale Australian website, with worldwide shipping.

Polished Princeses- an Ever After fan group- the Ever After group usually has a fun Monday bingo game, and group exclusives.

Lollipop's Posse- this is for Lollipop Posse Lacquer- the maker (Karen Sloan) often has contests for Lollipop Loot (most recently it was a contest to name the Black Friday polish!), and keeps you up to date on releases, etc.

Grace-full Nail Polish Fan Group- You don't hear a lot about Grace-full Nail Polish, I bought some in 2016 on Black Friday and joined her group. I have 4 of her polishes, and have tried one, and it was really good!

Joyful Fingers, a Joy Lacquer Fan Group So I'm extra partial to this group because I entered a contest (we posted pictures of our pets/kids, and the maker's daughter picked which one she liked) and I won! Well, a picture of my cat Kitty Purry won, lol.  See the winning picture below, lol. I got several polishes and they are really great! Here is the Joy Lacquer site!

Adorably Anonymous I actually don't have any Anonymous Lacquer polishes...yet...but do belong to the group!

Literary (&) Lacquers This is the group for bibliophiles and polishaholics! Polish and book releases! WhatchareadingWednesdays!

Nvr Enuff Ffans  I don't have any Nvr Enuff polishes either, but again, none yet! LOL. They have contests, beautiful swatches and new collections and group exclusives!

LynB Loves I have a bunch of LynBdesigns polishes, some I love, some I don't (I'm looking at you, Mind Palace!!). She always has beautiful new releases and often has 50% sales.

Smitten with Dreamland I don't have any of these polishes either- I first heard about this brand when they were a maker on Hella Holo Customs, but I'm sure the day will come when I must have one!

Lacquester Lovers This is group from the Netherlands- I think the best way to buy these polishes are through stockists (like color4nails, etc.) just because of shipping issues (it's November 2017 now, and I'm still waiting for a Hella Holo custom polish from August!). But her polishes are absolutely

gorgeous, and this group is a great way to see what is coming up from the brand!

All things NWP They sometimes have free shipping codes, and they also do a Shimmer Me Box each month. I have some gorgeous polishes from NWP- the Labryinth collection! Gorgeous!!

Try it Tuesday- Supernatural Lacquer Moon's Out, Brooms Out

This is a great polish! It's a maroonish brown polish with amazing flakies in it- it's such a complex polish!

This took 3 coats for full opacity, and it dries matte. I am not about the matte life, so I put a big, thick layer of Seche Vite over it- and literally it came to sparkly life as I brushed the top coat on.

This is beautiful. Beautiful, beautiful.

I have loved Supernatural Lacquer ever since I discovered them perusing blogs and Instagram, lol. Their polishes are original, and the formulas are always great.


This is in the sun, where you really see how maroon it is.

I highly recommend joining their Facebook group, Polish Idjits-SPNL fan group (get the Bobby Singer reference??).

This will keep you updated on when her shop is open, and what she's working on next!

Live your life with love in your hearts and glitter on your nails!

Nail Mail- More Destash!!

I was perusing someone's destash- and saw the Elevation Polish- and fell in love- and then found some more to fall in love with, lol.

L-r Arcane Echo, Joy Lacquer You Know UR in Love When, Elevation Polish Shinjuku Goldern Gai,  Sayuri High King, Supermoon Lacquer No Sh*t, Sherlock, Lollipop Posse Midnight Checkout Queen, and Lollipop Posse Love is a Hell you Cannot Bear.


These are my first Elevation and Sayuri polishes, can't wait to try them! And I absolutely love when I get a deal.

Arcane Lacquer is no longer in business, I don't think, but you can get them on Beautyometry. There is some kind of drama around Elevation Polish that I don't really know about, but I linked the website, there are polishes that look like they're for sale, lol.

Live your life with love in your hearts and glitter on your nails!

Try it Tuesday- Pahlish Trick or Mint

Not sure I love this on me, but I love the ghost on the label!!

I really enjoy Pahlish polishes, they always have great formulas, and the bottles are so cute.

This is a minty green, and as I said, I'm not sure I love those types of greens on me, but hey, you gotta try it once!!

This was 2 coats, so great coverage for a lighter color, and as I said, a great formula!

Here's a macro- just a nice pretty light green linear holo. 

Live your life with love in your hearts and glitter on you nails!

Nail Mail - Facebook Destash!!!

The No Trash Destash and Nearly No Rules Destash pages on FB are addicting! It's super fun to find some old lemmings (and I am of course seeing others I must have!). This is from 2 different destashes, but I just combined, lol.

L-r Lacquester POS, Femme Fatale Violet Starling, Cirque Idyllic, Painted Polish Monster on Mirkwood, Emily de Molly Insipid and Crowstoes Lil Miss Sunshine.

This is my first Painted Polish, and I really wanted this one! These destashes are a fun way to conquer lemmings, or just try polishes from new-to-you brands.


Live your life with love in your hearts and glitter on your nails!

Nail Mail- Vapid, and buy all the Nail Sauce!!

Vapid is such a great brand, I highly recommend it. I first discovered them on Instagram or FB, can't remember where, last Black Friday (2016). I was late to the game, but they had a 30% off sale (fingers crossed for a good sale this year!), and they also have a smaller size polish they call a shmedium, which is bigger than a mini, but not as big as full size (obviously, lol). So I got a couple polishes in the shmedium size, and was hooked.

One of the fun things they do are the little samples! This time I got an adorable zebra and a wax sample. This is actually 2 orders combined, so it's not as bad as it appears, lol. That's another thing- they refund shipping if you place an order and then place another one before the first one ships! They just combine the two. Awesome!!

See all the tubs stacked on each side? This is something that you NEED in your life. It's called Nail Sauce, and it's a great cuticle moisturizer- and they smell HEAVENLY!!!  (pause in typing as I apply some to my nails right now!!) I have some at home by my bed and my nail table, and some at work.

The polishes are Smokescreen, Captain Crunkloops, Watercolor Octopus and Not All There Myself. I also got a crystal nail file (I have these everywhere too), and some candy (I hate Air Heads, but my kids are happy!)

I also had a mixup with my nail sauce, they sent a wrong scent, and they ~immediately~ sent me out the right one. So, amazing customer service. I was very impressed.

You can join their Facebook group, Vapicorns, and keep up with when the shop is open and when they have special things available!!!

Try it Tuesday- KB Shimmer Pink Tourmaline

Oooooh- I absolutely love the KB Shimmer Birthstone Polishes (they came out in January 2016). They are birthstone colored foiled types of polishes- easy in 2 coats. This one is Pink Tourmaline. I don't know why it took me so long to try this, I love pink polish!

I wore this on vacation at the beach- because these wear like iron, too!  And I got a ton of compliments on it. It looked especially good when I had a little bit of a tan.

KB Shimmer was one of the first indie brands (along with ILNP) that I tried, and down the rabbit hole I went, lol. I really recommend the brand, and they're really reasonably priced.
