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.

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.

Moonflower Polish ~ May 2020 PPU

*This polish was provided for review



Hello! Are we all ready for Candy Land?! I am so excited for this theme. The makers really brought it this month with all the goodies. Nadia, owner of Moonflower Polish, is bringing you this awesome polish that has been formulated for regular wear! Usually the stamping polish aficionado, Nadia changed her direction for this month. Let's check it out!


Dulce de Coco is an, "off-white crelly full of iridescent microflakies. Dulce de Coco is meant to be worn as a regular nail polish in 2-3 coats. If used for stamping, use over black for best results. It is intentionally more sheer than my usual stamping polishes in order to show off more of the microflakies. Inspired by my favorite traditional Puerto Rican candy, made from coconuts. The polish name translates to "coconut candy"." This polish screams confection 😍 The flakies make this polish. I love that this is an off white not a bright white. It just softens the whole thing. Formula for me was a little on the thick side but Nadia has assured me she will be thinning out the batches sent to everyone else. It was still totally polishable and I only needed 2 coats for full coverage. It is so pretty stamped as well. I'm rambling so let's see some pics.












Let me apologize for the weirdness of my skin. White does that to me. So, what do you think? I love it. It was the perfect base for some candy stamping! Make sure this goes on your wish list because there are only 50 bottles for the US only! This pandemic is affecting everyone everywhere, indies included. That leads to shortages of pigments and other supplies. That means ninja fingers are a must if you want this beauty. It will be $12.50 for a full sized bottle of Dulce de Coco. Polish Pickup goes live tomorrow, May 1st, at 11am EST. Polish Pickup is open May 1st - 4th. Links below! Have a great weekend y'all! Stay Safe ❤

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.

Fiesta en America will be $12.50 with a cap of 75 bottles so get your ninja fingers prepped. Links below! Have a great day 💕

Moonflower Polish ~ Gemstones: Part 2

*Provided for review
*Picture heavy


Hey y'all! Tonight I have for you the second installment of the Gemstones Collection from Nadia of Moonflower Polish. I have a ton of pics so I will get right to the review. Each polish has the same flawless 1 coat application. These polishes were formulated to stamp so they are very opaque. I cannot wait to use them in more nail art. They are super holo but don't dry super shiny so I suggest a good top coat to make them pop! And because I am me, I used 2 coats plus top coat for my swatches. I did not matte these. They are ultra holos so I wanted that to be the focus. Ready for the pics? Me too!




Rubi (Ruby) is a warm toned red ultra holo with slight orange undertones. 2 coats plus glossy top coat
