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

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.

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.
