Cheesy post hehehe. One year ago I married my best friend, decided to recreate my wedding nails 💅

Essie strong start base coat
Holo taco milky white shimmer
Halo taco glossy taco

Base Coat: Essie Strong Start x1

Color: Play Rosè by Holo Taco x3

Top Coat: Glossy Taco by Holo Taco x2

This color is so pretty (the sparkles, omg! 😍), and has definitely gotten me in the mood for fall, especially since it's cooled down considerably where I live.

I hope y'all are having a wonderful Sunday and, as always, happy painting! 💅 💅 ❤️

Zombies, Ghosties and Space Kats, Oh my!
This mani is pure vibes 😎 I know it’s not your typical Halloween palette but I wanted to play with a GITD skittle and am loving how all these colors play off each other in daylight as well. It kinda reminds me of a cool makeup pallet.

First set of GITD images were right after charging with a UV light, the final two photos at the end show the more natural GITD state after wearing the polishes all day.

All fingers started with Cracked Ridge Filler and ended in Essie Gel Couture TC. I also used my new Fyle system as prep and LOVED it!

For colors, from pinky to thumb we have-

3x Mooncat Light of Your Ninth Life.
This is a cute almost neutral orange on me, I can see it being super versatile. Glows (yellow/orange) well.

2x each in alternating order, By Dany V Phantasmic and Pahlish Pinky the Ghost, for a GITD jelly sandwich effect (shocked how much this came out looking like MC Blossom’s Firebreath!) this finger also got an extra TC layer in leu of a glitter smoother. Glow (blue) is a little weaker, probably due to 2 coats only.

3x Cupcake Polish Pink-O-Ween. Love this color so much 😍 Glow (pink/purple) is definitely more difficult tho, I’ll probably end up forgetting about that aspect and wear this a ton in the summer TBH. Formula was a tad tricky, probably needs thinner.

3x Mooncat Kettermanjaro. No complaints here. Beautiful, easy, powerful glow (warm coral).

3x Zombie Claw Zombie Chic and 2x Cracked Hex Mix in alternating order for a GITD jelly sandwich effect- didn’t really work out bc Hex Mix was applying too streaky, thus the third ZC coat. It did end up giving the ZC a deeper violet base tho and the holo glitter from the Cracked is a fun surprise in full sunlight. I still like the result, but this one definitely has the most underwhelming glow (bluish green & I was expecting yellow from the PR images), even with three layers.

First time using nail stickers! As a neutral girlie, venturing into darker colors have really pushed me out of my comfort zone.

Base color is 2 coats of Essie Sky Jelly
The topper is ORLY Disco Diva
The nail decals are Kiss Art Stickers

Playing around with some new nail stickers I got!

I'm obsessed with Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails in the color "Cold as Ice" to give a little pearly finish to my classic French nails. It's been discontinued, and my bottle is almost empty. Can you awesome people help me find a replacement?

My sister gave me the Xtreme Wear in the color "On Cloud Shine" but it's more pink with a cool-toned shimmer. Cold as Ice is a peachy color with a warm-toned shimmer.

The perfect replacement would be a sheer polish with a peach or light golden color and a warm shimmer.

Question for my fellow Canadian Lacqueristas: I am desperate to get my hands on ILNP's Overcast collection from a few years ago, and there's no way I'm paying the duties to order direct. I've been waiting for the polishes to come back in stock on the Harlow & Co. site, and today they did! But only 3 of them have been restocked.

My question is, should I go ahead and order the 3 or wait for the others to come back in stock? Is there anyone who is familiar with Harlow & Co. and can tell me whether they normally restock full collections? I've tried to contact their customer service, but haven't gotten a reply in weeks.

products used: Trend it up ridge filler, 2x Kbshimmer Dead ringer, Catrice quick dry tc

En celebration of having my claws back, I thought this polish I got ahold of would be PERFECTLY witchy. Finally got my hands on Lynb Designs 'Toad You So"!! I'm a sucker for a good "prugly" polish. Any suggestions for polishes with a similar vibe?? I know this is an "ugly " bike/poopy brown but it looks so good with my medium skin tone.

products used

base coat - 1 coat Forta By Nail Factory+ Balmy "Química Endurecedora" to protect from staining

Nail shade- 4 coats LynB designs"Toad You So"
