Pahlish November Polish Pickup

     Hello, lacquered lovelies! I have Pahlish’s contribution to Polish Pickup’s November theme, Bad Ass Women! It was no surprise to me that Shannon chose Doctor Who as her inspiration. The 13th Doctor, Jodie Whittaker, is the first woman to lead the show in Doctor Who history and Pahlish is super excited to explore space and time with her. She definitely qualifies as a bad ass woman, don’t you agree?                                                              Before we get into swatches, let’s talk about Polish Pickup.  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 from a multitude of different makers here. The shop opens the first Friday of every month and closes the following Monday. This month, the shop opens on 11/2 at 11 am EST and clo

Heather's Hues November Polish Pickup

     Hello, all! I have Heather's Hues Polish Pickup for November to share with you today. The theme is Bad Ass Women and Heather chose Frida Kahlo as her inspiration. Before we talk more about the woman who inspired this polish, let’s talk about Polish Pickup for a minute.          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.

     Hello, lacquer lovers! I have some new beauties from Glam Polish to share with you today! Revealing The Magical World Limited Edition collection is  based on the movie, Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them.

Grace-full Nail Polish Nolite Te Bastardes Carborundorum collection

     Hello, lovelies! I have a new collection from Grace-full Nail Polish called Nolite te bastardes carborundorum which is Latin for “Don’t let the bastards grind you down” and is inspired by the amazing show and book, The Handmaid’s Tale. I love this show and have attempted to read the book. My short attention span and busy schedule make it hard to read books at times.      This collection will be available here on 10/26 at 8pm AEDT (Australian time) or 5am Central time.                                                              This collection has 8 polishes and was inspired by an idea from the Facebook fan group (I will post the link to this down below). Theresa (maker of Grace-full) purposely left out the extra sparkles and add ins that she would usually add to her polishes since this collection is based on a very utilitarian society. Ok, swatch time! Let’s get into it.       Praise Be is a soft green crelly with gold and silver holo microglitters. I was able t
