Good Knight Polish What's Kraken?

Nothing To Disclose

Another day, another new-to-me brand! This is Good Knight Polish What's Kraken? and it's a green creme with blue shimmer. The formula was super easy to apply.

Nothing To Disclose

I have another new-to-me polish from one of my Pookie's Polish Swap from Humble Bee Polish called Fiery Ember. This brand is sold on Etsy and this polish was released in fall 2024 as part of the Sunset Rainbow collection.

ella + mila Heart of Gold


Today I have ella + mila Heart of Gold from the Birthday collection, which is a true gold microglitter in a clear base. I don't think I have anything quite like this.

Zoya Stassi


Happy St. Patrick's Day! Today I have Zoya Stassi, a grass green shimmer with blue, yellow, and green glitter. I thought this was a great pop of green for today.

Glisten & Glow Mall Madness


Today I have another polish from my Pookie's Polish Swap - this is Glisten & Glow Mall Madness, which is limited edition from the Sparkle & Shine June 2023 box. This is a hot pink jelly with flakies and fuchsia shimmer.

BLUSH Lacquers The Turn

Nothing To Disclose

I pulled another oldie but goodie from my Helmer today. This is BLUSH Lacquers The Turn, which was part of the Magician's Trick limited edition trio. It has a plum base with brown shimmer and scattered holo and was from PolishCon 2017.

KBShimmer Claws and Effect

Press Sample

I also found this polish in my stash, but I forgot I got it in 2015 from the KBShimmer Winter/Holiday collection. Claws and Effect is a dark purple-leaning navy holo polish with blue/pink shifting glass flakes. I originally thought it was a straight holographic purple polish!

Here's a brand that we know and love! Today I have essie sunny daze, an amber nude nail polish with golden shimmer. This color has been discontinued so if you want it, snag it quick!

Rescue Beauty Lounge Scrangie

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have Rescue Beauty Lounge Scrangie, which was from the original Blogger Collection by Rescue Beauty Lounge back in the day. It was released in July 2009, and I quickly bought it because the Scrangie blog was one of my gateways into nail polish blogging. The blog ended in 2014, but the blogger is now known as Sam and uses he/him pronouns. Additionally, my polish has sadly faded.

Helios Memory Lane

Nothing To Disclose

Another new-to-me brand! This is Helios, a new professional nail brand from New York. This is their Luminor line, which looks like it's a reflective glitter, but to me, it was more of a shimmer. This is Memory Lane, a grey-based silver glitter.

Death Valley Nails Spoiled Milk

 Nothing To Disclose

I'm trying another new indie brand today! This one is Death Valley Nails Spoiled Milk, and it's a photochromatic/solar polish. Unfortunately, I didn't know that until later when I was looking to learn more about the brand. This is a white based polish with gold flakes and gold shimmer but in the sun, it turns a light grey.

Tonic Passion Fruit

Nothing To Disclose

One thing that I have been sad about when searching my polishes is the faded ones. Today I have Tonic Passion Fruit, which was originally a neon pink-coral with lilac/pink shimmer. As you can see, my bottle is now a melon orange but there is still some pink shimmer.

Rescue Beauty Lounge Liberty

Nothing To Disclose

I remember when the Rescue Beauty Lounge Bloggers 2.0 collection came out and I fell in love with Liberty, a mint-green with blue shimmer. It was created with Pammy from Polish Police. Unfortunately, her website is long gone but she does still have an Instagram for her writing. This was a time in my life where I really all about the mint greens.

OPI DS Mystery


I found another OPI DS or "Designer Series" polish today. This is DS Mystery, a deep purple with gold shimmer.

OPI DS Illuminate

Nothing To Disclose

Back in the day, the OPI DS or "Designer Series" was all the rave. Today I have OPI DS Illuminate, a brown holographic with green shimmer. This is super unique!

Tonic #Chibound

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have Tonic #Chibound, which was originally a PolishCon limited edition color. This is a deep glowing royal blue with blue-purple multichrome pigment and blue-purple shimmer.

Girly Bits V.I.Polish IEC 2017

Nothing To Disclose

In 2017, I went to IEC—Indie Expo Canada—in Toronto, Canada. It was my first time in Canada and my first time traveling internationally by myself. I was so excited to go and really enjoyed my time. Today I'm sharing Girly Bits V.I.Polish IEC 2017, which was originally a medium denim blue with blue and silver flakes, holo and blue shimmer. Mine has faded quite a bit to a dark blue and the shimmer switches from blue to purple in different lights.

Nothing To Disclose

This is my final polish from my August Pookie's Polish Swap. I still have my November and January ones to post but hey, baby steps. This is Atomic Polish Does This Sound Like A Man Who Needs To Be In A Hospital? I think this is the longest polish name I've ever owned. Now, this was from the Hella Handmade Creations July 2023 "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia." This is a pale blue base with an aqua to green shimmer shift.
