jen & berries Beady One

Nothing To Disclose

I have another jen & berries polish today from one of my Pookie's Secret Swap partners. This is Beady One and the label says it was from the PGB Star Wars, PGB April 2023. A short search showed that PGB stands for "The Polished Gamers Box" and it looks like it's now out of business, but it was a themed box that went out at least quarterly.

Monarch Lacquer Fish Food

Nothing To Disclose
Today I have yet another new-to-me brand but not entirely. Before she was Monarch Lacquer, she was half of Fair Maiden, a brand I definitely loved. Today I have Fish Food from her Mix-It-Monday series. These are limited run bottles that are made on Monday, named by her followers, and then sold that week (if I understand correctly). This is an interesting pale green crelly with lots of blue shimmer and blue-to-purple flakies.

ILNP Forest Drive

Nothing To Disclose
I just celebrated 15 years of my blog last week. From what I can tell, I am the second longest-running nails-only blog in the United States. Woo! We had family photos this last week and for some reason, I was feeling green. This is ILNP Forest Drive from the Home For the Holidays Collection. It's a deep green with scattered holographic and has a jelly/crelly opacity.

Anchor & Heart You Are Not Alone

Nothing To Disclose
Today I have another Anchor & Heart called You Are Not Alone. This was from a Breast Cancer Awareness Hope Box from 2018. This polish was a dusty pink jelly with rose gold metallic flakes and orange shifting flakes. I do think my bottle has faded from others I've found online. It also may be that the metallic flakes have tainted my bottle a bit.

China Glaze Metropolitan

Nothing To Disclose
Why did I have this beauty locked away? I found this bottle of China Glaze Metropolitan in a box behind my desk so I thought it was time to wear it. This is a deep burgundy red with brown undertones and bronze gold micro-shimmer from the 2005 Urban Chic collection. I also have Rapture and Crystal Ball from this collection.
