Morgan Taylor Lost In Paradise

Press Sample

Why do some of the prettiest polishes get UBS! Ugly Bottle Syndrome is just when the pigments sink so while this Morgan Taylor polish is definitely an aqua creme, it looks way more green on the bottom half of the bottle! This is Lost In Paradise, another polish that I have a swatch stick for this polish but I never wore it! I don't think this was part of any collection and was just part of their core release instead.

Morgan Taylor Holy Cow-Girl!

Press Sample

It's the finale of the cuccio Summer 2022 Karaoke collection - today I have Liquid Courage, which is listed as a white shimmer topper. Now, to me, this is a nude color with lots of green shimmer, so I was a bit excited to wear this one.

Shimmer Crystal

Nothing To Disclose
I have another Shimmer polish from my Pookie's Polish Swap and it's named Crystal (so close!). This is a glitter bomb of brown, gold, green, amber and there was originally holo sparkle. This polish was originally released in 2013 and I do feel like some of the green glitter has faded.

KBShimmer Aurora

Back in 2014, flakies had a HOLD on the polish world. I bought from several brands because it was just a magpie of "I want everything." Today I have KBShimmer Aurora, a green to orange flakie.

I was organizing one of my Helmer drawers and pulled this Great Lakes Lacquer polish called Festival of Fantasies which is a limited edition from PolishCon Chicago 2017. This is a beautiful violet jelly with red-to-green shimmer and red-to-bronze flakies. I can't believe I haven't worn it before!

KBShimmer Tapped Out (R)

Nothing To Disclose
When KBShimmer launched her line of reflective glitter polishes in 2021, I immediately bought four, including today's polish, Tapped Out. This is a gorgeous dark-wash denim blue polish with glowy pink shimmer, and you can sometimes see green or gold. Add in some silver reflect pigment, and it's just amazing.

KBShimmer Pine-ing For Yule

Nothing To Disclose
I was in love with this polish when it first came out in Winter 2014. This is KBShimmer Pine-ing For Yule, a clear-based glitter with holographic micro glitter, green triangles, and red stars. I didn't realize it at the time, but this was a Toys for Tots charity polish! If you follow me on Instagram, you may know that I'm now a Toys for Tots coordinator, which makes me very excited.

Morgan Taylor Later Alligator

Press Sample
I was looking for a good creme to use for my upcoming blog post tomorrow and pulled Morgan Taylor Later Alligator from my Helmer. This is a true grass-green creme. Now my bottle needed quite a bit of shaking, but ugly bottles don't mean ugly polishes. Let's get into it.
