Try it Tuesday Bee's Knees House on Haunted Chill

If you haven't tried Bee's Knees Lacquer yet, you should! They're a newer indie brand, and this polish, House on Haunted Chill, is a MUST!!!

It is super super sheer, which I did not expect- but it really didn't matter, it was easy to work with. This is 4 coats with no undies - but I actually did 7 coats because I did 3 coats, got called for a kid issue and messed it up and had to take it all off and re-do. So, as you can see in the picture, I definitely have a fill line now!! Such is the life of a mom!

Of course you can put this over something and get different effects. I love the macro above, it shows the shimmery nature of the polish.

This is such a gorgeous polish. It's one of my favorites. You can see that at different angles you see different shifts. So cool!





This picture below shows the silvery shimmery effect this polish has.

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

Mainstream Mani Monday Orly Sparkling Garbage

I think this polish is so cool- I did 4 thin coats to build it up, and it's a really neat look!

I like the color a lot, it's a softer green, and I really like the scattered holo effect.  I didn't use any "undies," this is just the polish itself.

You can really see the holo in the macro.


I really like the soft green color, and I can see that it would also make a good topper with one coat on top of a green (or whatever color) polish.

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

Nail Mail- my last Black Friday order! Supermoon Lacquer

My very last Black Friday order came! It was from Supermoon Lacquer. She had several issues with getting polishes out- weather, an injury- but she is SO GOOD at keeping people up to date, so I had no problem with it (I'm looking at you, Illyrian! Just let us know what's going on!!!)  

These are all polishes from older collections, with a special one (to me) on the right, I'll explain below. 

From l-r And You'll be a Goner, Boys for Breakfast (and for Lunch), The Lone Heir, and Green Goddess.

You'll Be a Goner and Boys for Breakfast are from the I am Cannibal collection, and The Lone Heir and Green Goddess are from The Chosen collection. Green Goddess is special to me because I named it! Mardi (the maker), let her Facebook Group suggest names, then we voted, and my name won! I finally purchased it. It's not usually a color I gravitate to, but it really is gorgeous, especially in real life.

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

Try it Tuesday- ILNP Zoe

Oooh, ILNP Zoe is GORGEOUS! If you love purple, you'll love this polish!

This is a red-leaning purple holographic polish,  and it is so so pretty. It looks deeper in some lights, and brighter in others.

As I have said a zillion times, ILNP was one of my "gateway" indies- and their formulas are so great. They are smooth and easy to work with, and the price point is great- $10-12!




This was from their 2017 Holiday Collection- I got this one, Rogue and Salem (both from the Winter Collection) during their Black Friday sale.

I love their polishes, and highly recommend- you really can't go wrong.

You can really see the holo flakies in this macro picture. 

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

Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Sin-derella

I really love this polish. It's so different than what I usually wear- I am not into neutrals really, but I HAD to have this one- and I could NOT find it anywhere! No brick and mortar stores, and no where online had it either!

This picture is under my bright lights.

I though I found it, but they emailed me that it really was out of stock. I was so sad. But then, a Makeup Alley friend came to my rescue, and sent it to me!! It was so so nice of her.

And it's gorgeous. It's a beigy neutral polish- with really cool red shimmer running through it! All of these pictures are just in different lights, some in artificial light, and some in sunlight- and you can see how different it can look!

                                                 This is in direct sunlight.













One more!

It's so cool- it looks so different in different lights, but still a beautiful neutral. Depending on what I wore, it looked more beige or more pink.

Try it Tuesday- Night Owl Lacquer She Believed She Could, so She Did- December Polish Pickup

I LOVE THIS POLISH!! Sorry for yelling. I really love this polish.

This is the first thing I've gotten from Night Owl Lacquer. I got this in the December Polish Pickup. Here is the link to the Polish Pickup Pack FB group.


It's a thermal, and it goes from a bright purple (cold) to pink (warm).

It's super cold here in North Carolina- I'm writing this on Monday, 1/15/18, and it's forecast to snow

on Wednesday. So cold, especially for the South! So I had to dip my hands in warm water to get it to shift, but it was very quick to shift (yes, my hands and bottle are wet in the picture above, I had to move fast!!!).

Pink and purple are my favorite colors- my room as a kid was pink, and my dad let me paint a bookshelf purple, lol.



This also has flakies and glitter in it- in fact, it was almost chunky. I did 2 coats of top coat, and it smoothed right out. You can really see in the macro the flakies and glitter shreds.

This went on my top Indies of 2018 right away. I can't stop looking at my hands, and showing off this polish to all my coworkers!



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

Mainstream Mani Monday- Morgan Taylor I'm the Good Witch

I wanted a glitter bomb this weekend because I thought we had a soccer tournament all weekend and I wanted something that would wear like iron. The tournament was cancelled, because we can't deal with cold weather here in the south, but the polish did wear really well!

It's a full coverage glitter, it was opaque in 3 coats, and it was a pretty color. It did give me a little bit of "lobster hands" where my hands look more red than they really are, but only in certain light, like this one on the right.

I liked it well enough- I did get a chip or two, but since the tournament was cancelled, I got to stay home and clean and was pretty rough on my hands, so I don't hold that against the polish.

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