Polished for Days It's all so Magical

Nothing To Disclose
I'm making a dent through the polishes on my desk from my last 3 Pookie's Polish Swap and today I have Polished for Days It's all so Magical. This was from "The Once Upon A Dream" collection from 2022. It's an aqua/teal crelly with gold iridescent and black matte flakies. This polish was inspired by Jasmine from Aladdin.

Anchor & Heart Kissing at Sunset

Nothing To Disclose
I got this next polish, Anchor & Heart Kissing at Sunset, from my third Pookie's Polish Swap with wild_moon_lacquer. This has been a great way to learn about new indie polishes, share polishes with new homes, and have some fun polish love again. Think sisterhood of the traveling polish. This initially was a 2016 limited edition polish that was originally a peachy orange holo with gold flecks. Unfortunately, my bottle has definitely faded.

This is an orange-coral polish with holographic glitter and gold shimmer. This polish was from the Polish Pickup in July 2017 "Cocktails & Mocktails."

I'm getting through the rest of my secret swap stashes and today I have Bee's Knees Lacquer (BKL) Turn Back, from the Radio Rental collection. This was part of their 5 year anniversary release. This is a red-gold-green multichrome with emerald green reflective glitter. The bottle is magical.

I feel like every time I wear Bee's Knees Lacquer, the bottle has changed. Today I have I Was Almost A Pancake, from the Resident Evil 4 collection. This is listed as a grape purple with gold to red multichrome shimmer.

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.

Bee's Knees Lacquer You Conjured Me Out of Hope

Nothing To Disclose
As I mentioned before, I was part of two Secret Santa type swaps this holiday season, and in my Instragram swap from Pookie's Polish Swap, I got this amazing Bee's Knees Lacquer called You Conjured Me Out of Hope. This was from a 2022 mystery bag polish that had something called "Ghost Flakes" as well as light reflective glitter. From the maker: "Ghost flakes are the largest particle size of UP (unicorn pee!). They aren't quite as sparkly because they're denser and more flake-like, but they have the same hard color shift. Lastly, these polishes have half the amount of light reflective glitter we have been using so it adds some depth without taking away from the ghost flakes." This is an indigo polish with gold to green ghost flakes and an emerald light reflective glitter.

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

Press Sample

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.

KBShimmer Supplies Party

Nothing To Disclose

Back in early 2017, I bought KBShimmer Supplies Party, from the Office Space collection. This was listed as a warm creme with metallic flakes and holo sparkle - much like their birthstone collection that I loved.

I definitely feel like I'm in a time warp with these 2017 polishes and Great Lakes Lacquer Like Air, I'll Rise reminded me of everything good. This is a multi-chrome holographic polish that has purple, gold, teal and green flashes.

China Glaze I Believe In Snuffy
