Ever After Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds


I am such a sucker for holographic glitter. When I first saw Ever After Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, I just had to have it. This was a 2017 release along with 2 other polishes in a "Beatles" trio. This is a holographic glitter in a very light lilac base.

Cadillacquer Seek The Fire


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. 

Black Dahlia Lacquer Black Magic

Nothing To Disclose

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. 

Lá¿¡men Nails Night Flight

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have a new-to-me indie brand that I received in a polish swap. This is Lá¿¡men Nails Night Flight, and it's a beautiful light purple/pink base with tons of holographic glitter and a purple shimmer. I'm blown away.

Different dimension Freedom

Nothing To Disclose

When spring hits, I love bringing out my white polishes, mostly for pedicures, but today I pulled out Different dimension Freedom, which is a snow white base with holographic microglitter. This was released in 2016 as part of the All American Collection.

Zoya Love


Somehow I missed posting the February Color Of The Month from Zoya named Love. This is a raspberry base with tons of small and medium red glitter.

Zoya Lucky


It's quite fitting that the Zoya's limited edition color of the month for March was a vibrant leafy green. This is Lucky, a green base with lots of gold and blue glitter, perfect for St. Patrick's Day.

Sally Hansen Wild Card


I have one last Sally Hansen Mega Strength today and it's a lovely gold glitter with small rainbow reflective glitter called Wild Card. Because I wasn't sure how opaque it was, I ended up putting it over yesterday's polish.

Zoya Vienna


I misunderstood Zoya's limited edition color of the month collection. For some reason, I thought that Vienna was the January color but it's actually the December color. This is a brilliant gold metallic with iridescent hex shimmer, irregular flakies, gold and iridescent micro shimmer, and fine white pearl.

Today is a great day! Fourteen years ago, I started PolishGalore and if I'm looking right, I am now the second longest running nails focused blog in the United States, second to xoxo, Jen. I've actually gotten to meet Jen at a polish convention and I hope to get to see her again one day and this time, we're taking photos!

Great Lakes Lacquer Love At Grand Prospect


Still going strong with these PolishCon NYC 2017 polishes. Today I have Great Lakes Lacquer Love At Grand Prospect which was the VIP polish from Great Lakes. This is a coral red with microglitter that just gives an extra little shimmer going on.

Girly Bits A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In My Bed


This polish is a fun one. This is Girly Bits A Stripper Has Been Sleeping In My Bed and it's chock full of glitter in a clear base.

Digital Nails Red Wedding

Nothing To Disclose

I really miss how Digital Nails tapped into the fandoms of the day or memes of the minute. Today I have Digital Nails Red Wedding, a nod to Game of Thrones massacre from the third book "A Sword of Swords." This polish is packed with multiple sizes of red glitter in a tinted red base.

Starrily Ultima

Nothing To Disclose

I love silver holographic glitter polishes. It's the magpie in me. Today I have Starrily Ultima, which was one of my first indie polishes purchased. It's like crushed diamonds on your nails. This is really best under a base coat (like a grey) or sponged on but y'all know I don't have time for that.

KBShimmer We Make Your Dreams Come Blue

Nothing To Disclose

I really do miss the days of PolishCon. I got to visit some new places and really be in the presence of other polish lovers. Today I have KBShimmer We Make Your Dreams Come Blue from the 2017 NYC PolishCon. This is a unique polish for me with an icy blue base that shifts to light violet, shimmer, and holographic microflakes.

Trying to get the motivation back to do my nails again - it's summertime here but we don't have many plans because of work. Today I grabbed ella + mila first birthday, a clear base with micro glitter. You can wear this over a myriad of colors but I decided to just wear it alone.

KBShimmer Sun & Games


My alma mater's colors are blue and gold so when I saw KBShimmer Sun & Games, I knew I wanted it for game day. This is a bright gold with holographic glitter from the 2015 Summer Collection.

Zoya Angel

Press Sample

Back in the day, Zoya was one of my biggest PR supporters, and I appreciated being able to receive full collections at no-cost, to swatch and share on my blog. I was removed from their list during my inactivity but recently found that they had re-added me and I received the Pink Palette - Summer 2022. Today I have Angel, an iridescent pink lace overlay with periwinkle and golden glitter. Two things about this polish... it is best over other polishes and yes, there was another Zoya "Angel" back in early 2000s - a light pink pearl.

China Glaze Grover It


Only two more polishes from China Glaze "You Do Hue" 2019 collection with Sesame Street. Today is Grover It, which is a rainbow reflective and blue glitter in a blue-tinted base.

China Glaze Dat Color Dough


China Glaze is playing with my heart. So I'm almost finished with the "You Do Hue" 2019 collection with Sesame Street. When I wore Free To Be Sesame, I was so excited. So when I saw Dat Color Dough, which is a blue glitter in a clear base, I thought it was going to be the same pay off.
