In the above bottle photo, you're seeing all that red shimmer.

Zoya Loni Petite


Zoya was one of the first brands to send me press samples, and then, at some point, I fell off their list. Well, last summer, I got a press kit of their 2023 Beachy Brights, which were mini bottles that were called "Petite" officially on their website. I still haven't gotten a new bottle of Zoya base coat, so it just sat here in my box, but now I'm getting back on it.

Jen & Berries You're Living In A Vacuum

Nothing To Disclose

When I first got this jen & berries You're Living In A Vacuum in my secret swap, I wasn't sure what to make of it. I hadn't heard of the brand before but also in low light, this looked like just another greige polish. This polish was originally released in the Polish Pick Up September 2022 "Scary Vibes" but this bottle is from the July 2023 rewind..

Zoya Candy


Zoya is back with their April Color of the Month and this is Candy, a white pink candy creme that goes beyond just pastel. 

cuccio Wink


I'm halfway through the cuccio's 2019 Coquette Collection with Wink, a dusty pink creme. I tend to gravitate to these types of soft pinks when I'm over the holo and sparkle.
