Nothing To Disclose
I have another thermal polish today from my Pookie's Polish Swap! This is Chamaeleon Nails Ahsoka. This was the second polish for the August aliens theme for the Little Box of Horrors, inspired by the Togruta, specifically the character Ahsoka. This is a thermal going from brown (cold) to pink (warm) with pink/orange shifting iridescent flakies, and white hex glitters in various sizes.

China Glaze Fairy Dust

Nothing To Disclose
As you can see, China Glaze changed everything about their bottles. The logo is now a 3D design in the glass, featuring a tapered lid with the finish printed on the neck. The brush has also changed to the flat paddle brush for good. I haven't been to Ulta to see their exclusives but I was at Sally's recently and grabbed this bottle of Fairy Dust, their OG rainbow microglitter. (Note: My bottle says "glossy" but online, I've seen that the bottles of Fairy Dust say "sheer".)

During my last Pookie's Polish Swap, I got this bottle of KBShimmer Spotted from the February 2024 Polish Pickup (PPU). I was super stoked because it reminded me of Upside Round and Spot Sign mixed together.

Chill Zone Strawberries In My Champagne

Press Sample

I'll have two more Chill Zone polishes and today's polish is called Strawberries In My Champagne. This is a glitter in a clear base but my glitter has definitely faded and bled into the base.

Zoya Dulcie

Only two polishes left in the Zoya Spring 2025 Naturel Sparkles collection, and today, I have Zoya Dulcie, a mid-tone nude inspired by caramel and flan, delicately infused with pink micro glitter. 

Zoya Avalon

Press Sample

I'm about halfway through the Spring 2025 collection, and today, I have Zoya Avalon, a sweet cotton candy pink infused with hints of pink and golden glitter. It's crazy how you can have so many shades of pink and there's still room for more.

Zoya Cleo

Press Sample

I have another Zoya Spring 2025 Naturel Sparkles polish today! This is Cleo, a "fusion of pink and coral infused with fine pink and gold micro glitter. I thought this was going to be my favorite.

Zoya Nadine

So I thought I was grabbing the second half of the Zoya Fall 2024 collection called "Luxe Noir" but I actually grabbed the Spring 2025 Naturel Sparkles collection. Today I have Nadine, a tempting deep berry pink infused with specks of pink and golden glitter. This reminds me so much of the glass fleck collections that Zoya was known for.

Zoya Anabelle

Cameo Colours Only Bad Witches Are Ugly

Nothing To Disclose
Can you believe it's summer already? Today I have yet ANOTHER new-to-me indie brand called Cameo Colours. This is the shade Only Bad Witches Are Ugly, from the Polish Pickup June 2021. This is a gorgeous bubblegum pink with holographic glitter. The theme that month was "Over the Rainbows" and this was a nod to Glinda the Good Witch of course. But was she really good? This polish had a cap of only 100 bottles.

Cuticula Bella Nuit

Nothing To Disclose
I have another Cuticula polish today. This is Bella Nuit from the May 2022 Polish Pickup. This is a black jelly base with orange and gold flakes and silver reflective glitter. This is pretty unique! How did it wear?

Nothing To Disclose
I have a mini bottle today from Alter Ego. This is Dolly It Up, a bronze-gold glitter in a clear base. This was sold during The Polish and Beauty Expo Nashville. I was actually really surprised by this one's coverage!
