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.

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.
