Jessica Starry Night

Press Sample
I have had this bottle of polish in my desk organizer for quite some time, and today is the day to show it off. Today, I have Jessica Starry Night from the Phenom Vivid Colour collection. This is a 3-step system that dries in natural light and has a chip-resistant, gel-like shine for up to 10 days but removes like polish. Starry Night is a peacock blue with tiny blue microshimmer.

Witchcult Nail Lacquer Sea Glass

Nothing To Disclose
I have such a love/hate with thermal polishes. Today I have another new-to-me indie called witchcult nail lacquer and this is their thermal Sea Glass. From what I can tell online, it's a seafoam-aqua stage when warm, and is a grey-purple when cold. There's also lots of mylar flakies running through it. Unfortunately, my bottle is "dead" and stuck in its cold state.

Zoya Maisie

Nothing To Disclose
Last month I showed you Zoya Opal, now here is Zoya Maisie from the same Fleck Effects collection. This one is green mylar flakies in a blue-tinted base. The bottle is beautiful on its own for sure.

OPI Dating a Royal

Nothing To Disclose
When I saw OPI Dating a Royal in my last swap with Pookie's Polish Swap, I was so stoked to see a beautiful royal blue. This was from the Mod about Brights Summer 2008 collection but surprise - it's a jelly/crelly!

Syzygy Boston Violet Sea Snail

Nothing To Disclose
I finally have nails long enough for thermal polishes! Today I have a new to me brand - Syzygy Boston in the shade Violet Sea Snail. This is a blue to purple thermal with lots of blue and purple flakies.

Press Sample

I found another Patricia bottle in my Helmer. I swear, it's like a treasure chest some days! This is Love Dove, and it's a soft blue creme. This is totally a wedding color to me!

China Glaze On The Rocks

Nothing To Disclose
I have another oldie China Glaze today! This is On The Rocks, a sheer seafoam aqua/green nail with aqua micro-shimmer. This was from the 2006 Tequila Toes collection. Talk about a throwback.

Noodles Nail Polish Blue Lagoon

Nothing To Disclose
I love that I keep learning about new indie brands through my Pookie's Polish Swap on Instagram. For some reason, hashtags haven't worked for me, but if you're interested, PookieBear0625 is the group owner. Today I have Noodles Nail Polish Blue Lagoon, a semi-sheer, cyan blue crelly with blue/green/gold shifting flakes, light blue matte glitter, and lime/gold iridescent glitter. This was from the August 2023 For The Love of Polish Box called "Summer Drinks."

Jessie Monroe Ex For a Reason

Nothing To Disclose
Today, I'm featuring another new brand, Jessie Monroe. This one, Ex For a Reason, has a blue-tinted base with tons of blue glitter. I actually have a pair of sneakers that are this exact shade.

Zoya Bunny

Press Sample

Yesterday I got an email that my Zoya Color of the Month was here! I came home to Zoya Bunny, a modern pastel blue creme. This is a perfect spring color but also would be great for wedding season! 

China Glaze Fall From Grace

Nothing To Disclose
If you're an OG to the blog, you know that I was originally addicted to China Glaze and was fortunate enough to receive press samples from them for years. Unfortunately, I haven't seen much of them in the last few years and they haven't put out a collection since Spring 2014. Today I have China Glaze Fall From Grace from the Halloween 2023 "Serpentine" collection. This is a navy jelly with tons of blue and purple sparkles.

OPI Tealing Festive

Nothing To Disclose
Well, I had a devastating nail break this week, so I figured I'd finish all my swap bottles from Pookie's Polish Swap and see how long they grow before my manicure next week. This is OPI Tealing Festive - a medium-dark blue-green metallic.

Different dimension Pier Pressure

Nothing To Disclose
I keep randomly pulling polishes from my Helmer, and today is a throwback to 2016 with Different dimension Pier Pressure. This was from the Pretty Nauti collection and was a silver shimmer base with blue and green glitters and a holographic glitter scattered throughout. It was supposed to look like sea glass, one of my new obsessions.

Zoya Feifei

Press Sample

As I was making room in my Helmer, I grabbed Zoya Feifei, a metallic blue/grey with green and gold shimmer. I don't even recall how old this is, but it's an older polish for sure.

Shimmer Kim

Nothing To Disclose
I pulled another Shimmer polish today - this is Kim, and it's a blue, purple, and silver glitter bomb. My base is tinted blue now but I'm pretty sure it was a clear base originally. I bought this polish because my Mom's name was Kim.

Lime Crime Once In A Blue Mousse

Nothing To Disclose
Recently I was cleaning my Helmers and I forgot that I really liked Lime Crime Once In A Blue Mousse when it first came out. This is a pale blue creme that dries a bit matte but as always, I like to add top coat.

Good Knight Polish What's Kraken?

Nothing To Disclose
Another day, another new-to-me brand! This is Good Knight Polish What's Kraken? and it's a green creme with blue shimmer. The formula was super easy to apply.

KBShimmer Navy or Not, Here I Come

Press Sample
Here is another oldie but goodie from KBShimmer. This is Navy Or Not, Here I Come, from the Road to PolishCon Fall 2017. This is a vibrant blue linear holographic polish with color-shifting flakes.

KBShimmer Claws and Effect

Press Sample
I also found this polish in my stash, but I forgot I got it in 2015 from the KBShimmer Winter/Holiday collection. Claws and Effect is a dark purple-leaning navy holo polish with blue/pink shifting glass flakes. I originally thought it was a straight holographic purple polish!
