Pahlish September 2018 Polish Pickup

                                                     Hello, all! I have a very gorgeous new Pahlish to share with you today. Pahlish created a polish for Polish Pickup’s theme for September, Horror Movies! I’m thrilled about this month’s theme and so far, all the polishes I have seen are gorgeous! My wallet will be crying after I place my order. Before I get into the details and swatches, let’s talk about Polish Pickup for a second. Maybe you’re new to the nail polish community and are wondering what Polish Pickup is.  Let me tell you! Polish Pickup is an interactive group on Facebook (I will include the link to the group at the end of this post) that allows you to submit theme ideas for each month and vote for your favorite theme. After the theme is picked, you may then select your favorite polishes to purchase here .   They offer flat rate shipping to the US ($3) and Canada ($5) and orders will usually start shipping about 3 weeks after the shop has closed.

Pahlish Ciao Bella! Collection

                                                          Hello, lovelies! I have a new collection from Pahlish to share with you guys today. This collection is called Ciao Bella! and is inspired by all things Italian and the end of summer. These polishes will be available to purchase on Sunday, August 19th at 7pm central. They can be purchased on their site here . Alright, let’s get in to the swatches.      First up, I have this collection’s namesake, Ciao Bella! This is a gorgeous neon strawberry red jelly polish with a mix of holographic, platinum and multichrome flakes as well as a subtle red to green shifting pigment. I used 3 thin coats for this swatch and Cuticula’s Rock Candy Static base coat and their quick dry top coat. The formula was perfection and removal was very easy with no scrubbing required at all. I also added some stamping using a plate from Clear Jelly Stamper, plate CJS-40.      Next up, I have Uliveto, a beautiful olive cream with a mix of irides

P*O*P Polish Pastel Oil Slick 360 collection

                                                    Hello, multichrome lovers! Are you ready to see something new, exciting and gorgeous?? Because I have 8 new multichromes from P*O*P Polish to share with you guys today! I was very excited when Bianca asked me to swatch her new polishes and even more excited to find out that we both live in the same city. So not only did I find a new to me indie brand, I found a new, local indie brand which is super exciting to me. These multichromes are new because they are pastel! We’re used to the darker toned multichromes where the normal shifts are blues, greens, purples, golds but these new pastel multichromes have a shift added. Nude and grey shifts can be seen in these in certain lighting. They were hard to capture but they’re there. These polishes were so intriguing to swatch. I was staring at my fingers constantly when I wore them. The Pastel Oil Slicks will be available to purchase on August 10th at 3pm EST here:  https://www.etsy.com/sho
