Moonflower Polish ~ August 2020 PPU

*This polish was provided for review


Hello!! How are we all doing? Staying safe and healthy I hope 🤞🏼 Where I am it is thundering and lightning so this is the perfect time to write about this amazing beauty from Nadia of Moonflower Polish


Lightning Crashes is a “dark purple base with purple-to-blue iridescent micro flakes and scattered holo. It can be used as a regular polish in 1-2 coats or as a stamping polish. Lightning storms over Orlando Florida. Meteorology is one of my favorite sciences. The area of Central Florida where I live is known as Lightning Alley because it's the spot with the most lightning strikes in the northern hemisphere. The unique shape of the peninsula means there's usually going to be a thunderstorm in the afternoon, due to the collision of sea breezes from the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.” This is a deep grape color with blue flashes. It’s fantastic. I mean, I may be biased because blue and purple are my favorite polish colors, but I doubt it. The formula is perfect and only takes 1 coat. Could it get any better? YES! It stamps perfectly! I used one coat for these pics plus top coat. 












Amazing right?!?! Polish Pickup’s theme is Weird Science and it will be open from August 7th - August 10th. Lightning Crashes will be $12.50 with a cap of 75 US and 5 UK.

R&P Jewelry ~ July 2020 PPU

*This ring was provided for review


Hello! I have something totally new for me today. I have a small review of a gorgeous ring that will be available next weekend with PPU! Brittany of R&P Jewelry is bringing you this super dainty, simulated opal, sterling silver ring. Let me give you the details.

This ring is set on a 16 gauge, sterling silver, twisted band. The stone itself is a 4mm simulated opal. If that wasn't made clear to me I would never know. The stone is so colorful 😍 So much work goes into making this ring. First, the band is measured and cut. It is then soldered into a circle, filed and sanded, then shaped into it's final perfect circle form. Once that part is done the bezel is soldered onto the ring. It is then filed and sanded again. The ring is then cleaned up by being sanded and tumbled. The stone is now finally set and the ring gets one final polish. I just love it. I can't think of any fancy words to describe it because I just love it. I put it on and I haven't taken it off. I prefer dainty, simple jewelry and this is just that! It goes with everything. Let me show you the many pics I took of this beauty. 














So? Do you love it? This ring will be available for July's PPU from July 3rd - July 6th 2020. The ring I took pictures of is a 7. The ring that will be available is a size 8. There are only 50 available and they will cost $15 each. Wish listing is open now so hop on over and add it! Links below :) Have a fantastic day y'all!

Moonflower Polish ~ June 2020 PPU

*This polish was provided for review


Good morning friends! How is your weekend so far? Mine is amazing! I got the call that our offer for a house was accepted. I'm buying a house!!! I'm so very excited that I couldn't sleep well so here I am. Today I have for you Moonflower Polish's contribution to Polish Pickup's Cocktails & Mocktails. Shall we?


Blueberry Lemonade is a "Pinkish mauve crème with subtle hint of purple to blue multichrome sparkle." This polish is inspired by the cocktail at the Boathouse Restaurant in Disney Springs (Orlando, FL). As usual, this polish is made for stamping and other nail art. It is suggested that if you do use it for regular wear, you add thinner to the polish so it isn't as thick. I actually didn't add a thing and it polished perfectly for me. I really love the color. To me it's a cross between bubblegum and roses. The shimmer is pretty subtle but over black it really pops. That was my favorite nail. For the regular wear I used 2 coats. You could totally pull off 1 coat if you polish thicker. 








Look out for more manis with this color because it is just perfect! Polish Pickup goes live on June 5th through the 8th at 11am EST. Blueberry Lemonade will be $12.50 and there will be a cap of 75 US only. Ninja fingers y'all. Hope you have a fantastic Sunday and a very happy Memorial Day! Links below.

Sweet Heart Polish ~ December '19 PPU

*Provided for review




Hello! How is everyone doing? Is your holiday shopping done? I haven't even started lol! It's been so busy around here. We have appointments related to the baby 2-3 times a week. We'll get to the shopping eventually... For now, I have a gift idea for you! Let's check out Sweet Heart Polish's contribution to Decembers PPU theme: Winter Is Coming!




You Sit On A Throne Of Lies "is a greige crelly base with gold flakes, taupe to green, blue to pink, and red to gold ucc flakes. It also has a copper shimmer with red and blue sparks that catch the light ever so slightly."  This polis is inspired by the movie ELF where Buddy realizes that the store Santa is not the real Santa. Not gonna lie, I totally squealed when I saw the name of this polish. ELF is on repeat at my house until Christmas! Such a fun, family movie ❤ YSOATOL is the perfect holiday neutral polish. It's got that wow factor but at the same time is subtle. I'm still wearing this mani right now. Super gorgeous. I used 3 thin coats for my swatches but you could totally use 2 normal - thicker coats. Formula was amazing. This polish definitely leaned more grey on me. It has more beige than my nail pics show. Check out the bottle shots for truest color. This polish will be $9.50 and will have a cap of 95 bottles for the US and 5 bottles for the UK.

Moonflower Polish ~ May '19 PPU

*Provided for review

It's almost that time again! PPU is back with one of my favorite themes!! The 80's!! I was born in the 80's so I have been reminiscing for weeks. This may sound corny, but I'm sure other 80's babies will understand; It was a simpler time. I appreciate the childhood I had. The things that molded me into who I am today! Times like this I wish I worked so I could buy these pretties. I shall live vicariously through you all so please buy up everything this month! I need it lol! One polish I do have is from Moonflower Lacquer. This polish is based on Puerto Rican pop sensation Chayanne and his 1987 Fiesta en America music video. Let's have a look.


Fiesta en America is a denim blue creme stamping polish with scattered holo, red-gold micro flakes and green-blue micro flakes. This one is dynamic and so freaking awesome. Denim is a spot on description of the blue color. The flakes are such a great addition. It looks peppered ya know? Really spectacular polish. I used2 smooth coats for my swatches.
