Tomorrow is a very important day here in the United States - Election Day. Fun fact - I even ran in two local elections (didn't win) and plan on running again in 2028. When The United Colors Project was pitched to me, I was interested in reading their story.
While I do want to review their polishes separately, as I usually do, I also wanted to do a little nail art (in my own way) for tomorrow using the America The Beautiful collection.
Nothing To Disclose
Y'all know that I love the OG Sally Hansen Pacific Blue, but it's been discontinued and that breaks my heart. However, I kept seeing Sally Hansen On the Download in stores with a "HOT" sticker on it so I finally broke down and bought it.
I was not ready for this yellow creme from the Zoya Beachy Brights 2 Summer 2024 collection. Today I have Taji and it's a pencil wood yellow creme.
Today I have the final polish from the cuccio 2019 Heatwave collection with Seriously Celsius, which is a yellow-green creme.
Here's the final purple from the cuccio 2019 Heatwave collection with Water You Doing? which is a "plush blue purple creme". I thought the last purple was Barney but this is SUPER Barney.
I'm going into the purples of the cuccio 2019 Heatwave collection and today is Mercury Rising - a luscious wine grape creme. This is very Barney purple to me.
Ever have a color that just doesn't want to photograph right? That's today's cuccio Summer 2019 Heatwave polish today with Don't Get Tide Down. This is a "sensual aubergine creme" which is like eggplant purple but it wanted to photograph pink for some reason.
Here's another cuccio Summer 2019 Heatwave polish today with Hot Thang! This is a hot pink creme and reminded me of Miami vibes.
I have another from the cuccio Summer 2019 Heatwave collection today with Paradise Found, a melon creme.
Switching gears a little and going back to cuccio with their Summer 2019 Heatwave collection. Today I have a bright cherry red creme called Life's Not Fahrenheit.
Today I have the final creme from the Zoya Spring 2024 Bloom Collection. This is Zoya Zaria, and it's listed as a deep spring rose pink creme.
Continuing with the Zoya Spring 2024 Bloom Collection, today I have Zoya Phoebe, a melon pink creme.
Happy July! Today I have Zoya Fleur, a classic pink creme from the Spring 2024 Bloom Collection. This is a shade darker than your typical pink but it's one of four pinks in this collection.
Today I have one more from my Pookie's Polish Swap polish from my partner wild_moon_lacquer, and this was another new-to-me brand. This is Cadillacquer Seek The Fire. This polish came out in 2014 and back then, it was definitely a more dark blue with red glitter. I do believe my bottle has faded which I really like this color.

I've been participating in the Pookie's Polish Swap on Instagram, and in May, I was partnered with wild_moon_lacquer, and she sent me some amazing polishes, including Black Dahlia Lacquer Black Magic, a charcoal black polish with holographic glitter.
May absolutely flew past me. We had a lot of illness in the household so I'm ready to kick May Flowers and bring on summer. Today I have the finale from the cuccio 2019 Coquette Collection. Today I have Hair Toss, a soft eucalyptus creme. This color sat on my desk for a long time and I don't know why.
Zoya really hit it out of the park this month with their May Color of the Month, Paisley. This is a wisteria violet creme that is also a pastel neon. It does dry matte but I went with a gloss top coat.
Only two more from the cuccio 2019 Coquette Collection! This is Why, Hello! and is listed as an airy, yet grounded sage crème.
I'm finishing up the cuccio 2019 Coquette Collection and today I have Follow Your Butterflies, a tranquil cool blue creme.
The cuccio's 2019 Coquette Collection was quite delicate and today's Take Your Breath Away is no exception. This is listed as a powdery purple creme.
