Okay China Glaze, you're finally getting my attention with the "You Do Hue" 2019 collection with Sesame Street.

I've been wanting to make sure I blog daily but I'm starting to get into a bit of a lull. However, today I pulled out Girly Bits Sky Theater and forgot how beautiful this polish is!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Remember the year that I did a bunch of green polishes leading up to the holiday? I should have done that again but at least I'm wearing green today!

More of my 2017 stash here - this is Tonic One Million Flowers , a duo they did with Ever After. This beautiful silver holographic with glitter and shows a lot of purple flash. I really like that you can layer this over a polish or wear it on its own.

Sally Hansen Hypnautical

Nothing To Disclose
Back in 2013, Sally Hansen announced their Triple Shine line, and one polish that caught my eye was Hypnautical, a blue and green shred glitter in a slightly green tinted base. At only $4.99, I hunted this down until I was able to find it at my local drugstore.

It's fun to rummage through my Helmer drawers and find my hidden gems like today's Sephora by OPI Meet Me At the Disco. This is a rainbow reflective microglitter in a clear base. While it's meant to be a top coat, I think you already know what I did.

Morgan Taylor Coming Up Crystal

Nothing To Disclose
My nails are almost 100% grown out since my gel removal in July. Again, don't remove hard gel unless you know what you're doing. Today I have a Morgan Taylor polish called Coming Up Crystal that I bought from my local Sally Beauty Supply. This polish was released in Winter 2021 for the release for the Sing 2 movie. Now, I hadn't seen the movies before but I loved this rainbow reflective silver glitter polish and it had to come home with me.

We are nearly the end of my duri journey and I have to say, I've been pretty impressed with their range. Today I have a sparkly number with duri A Million Likes. I thought this was like a foil but it's listed as a glitter on their website.

China Glaze Get Off My Cold Case

Press Sample

It turns out I had the entire "To Catch A Colour" Halloween 2019 collection from China Glaze here so I figured let's go ahead and finish off this 6 piece set the next few days. Today I have Get Off My Cold Case, which is orange shreds and microglitter along with black small and medium hexagonal glitter all in a clear base.  However, my base is definitely tinted orange, so it looks like this one is a bleeder.

China Glaze Private Side-Eye

This polish is not black. Today I decided to pull from a pile of China Glaze that I had from 2019. I originally didn't know what color this was but it's Private Side-Eye from the "To Catch A Colour" Halloween collection. This is a super dark purple with rainbow reflective glitter, almost a scattered holo.
