Don Deeva Plastic Thoughts

Nothing To Disclose

I have another Don Deeva polish today from my Pookie's Polish Swap and this one is Plastic Thoughts. This is a jelly purple polish with lots of shimmer and flakies.

Cracked I Yam What I Yam

Nothing To Disclose

Pulling another from my Pookie's Polish Swap trade, and this is my first Cracked polish. This is I Yam What I Yam, which was the October 2024 Jelly of the Month. This is an orange jelly.

OPI IndiGO OFF

I have the final polish from the Make 'Em Jelly Summer 2025 collection that I received and this is OPI IndiGO OFF, a navy blue jelly. I was super excited about this polish because I'm all about the navy blues.

OPI Pose-In Ivy

I'm using another of the OPI Make 'Em Jelly polishes today, and this is Pose-In Ivy, a jelly leaf green. I wasn't sure how opaque this jelly would get but I did like the challenge.

This is my final lakur by Londontown polish that I had received to try. This is lakur Beau of the City, a blue jelly.

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!

OPI Mural Mural on the Wall

Nothing To Disclose

Well this is a unique one! I got this from my Pookie's Polish Swap and it's OPI Mural Mural on the Wall in their Infinite Shine 2 formula. So the Infinite Shine system is a 3 piece method to give you up to 11-days of long lasting wear. I don't own the Infinite 1 (base) or Infinite 3 (top), but I still wanted to share this coral/orange jelly polish that has golden shimmer.

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.

Zoya Georgie


I was really curious about today's Zoya Beachy Brights 2 Georgie, because a red jelly holographic polish? Yes please! Zoya doesn't call this a jelly but it behaved like one for me.

Ethereal Pink Sugar Heart

Nothing To Disclose

I feel like I have learned about so many indie brands through my Pookie's Polish Swap. Today I have Ethereal Pink Sugar Heart from the In The Name of The Moon, Part 3 collection. This is a sheer hot pink jelly with pink to gold color shifting flakies. These three collections were inspired by Sailor Moon.

Sally Hansen Class Act


I'm finishing off the last couple of Sally Hansen Mega Strength polishes and today I have a squishy red jelly called Class Act.

China Glaze Living In The Elmo-Ment

Press Sample

One of the last collections that I got from China Glaze was their "You Do Hue" 2019 collection with Sesame Street. Today I have Living In The Elmo-Ment, which is a red jelly with rainbow reflective glitter.

China Glaze Fur Real Though

Press Sample

It is wild that I started this blog almost 13 years ago. Today I have the brand that started it all for me - China Glaze. This is Fur Real Though from the "You Do Hue" 2019 collection, a celebration collaboration with Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary. I loved Sesame Street as a kid, but my three boys were not interested. This is a squishy fuschia pink polish that is not quite a jelly but leans that way.

duri Sorry Not Sorry


I'm at the end of my duri journey and thankful that duri allowed me to review some of their polishes. It took me a long time do it but after two separate rounds of COVID and long-lasting effects from the first round, blogging really took a back seat. I'm still being seen by a cardiologist and a pulmonologist but so far my tests have come back favorably. Today I have duri Sorry Not Sorry which is listed as an opaque purple but it was more of a jelly for me.

duri Humble Brag

Press Sample

Well January sure snuck up on me! In addition to work, I had a small surgery (things went well!) and we've had lot of delays with the kids' school because of both COVID and weather. It's shaping up to be an interesting year already! One of my goals for 2022 is to get my house cleaned out/organized and since my desk is always full of polish, it's time for another post! Today I chose duri Humble Brag, which is a squishy cherry red.

Morgan Taylor Barely Buff

Press Sample

Okay. So today's color is one of those "But why" but at the same time, it makes sense. Hear me out. Today from the Morgan Taylor Spring 2020 "Editor's Picks" collection is Barely Buff and this is listed as "palest pink creme." Listen... this is like what you wear to have smooth looking nails when you aren't allowed to wear nail polish that's "loud". 

Morgan Taylor Call My Blush

Press Sample

Continuing with the Morgan Taylor Spring 2020 "Editor's Picks" collection is Call My Blush, which is a soft sheer pink. Much like yesterday's On Cloud Mine, this polish has a jelly consistency.

Morgan Taylor On Cloud Mine

Press Sample

I'm finishing the rest of the Morgan Taylor Spring 2020 "Editor's Picks" collection and the next few are what I feel really are the definition of "runway". Today I have On Cloud Mine which is a sheer peachy pink. This had a jelly like consistency.

Morgan Taylor See You In My Dreams

Press Sample

I love a good classic red. When I first saw Morgan Taylor See You In My Dreams from the winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection, I thought it was a vampy shimmer but I was happily surprised to find a more squishy vamp red! Not officially a jelly but I can't call this a creme either!

lakur by Londontown Invisible Crown

 Press Sample


So last week, I pushed all these posts back so I could get the Morgan Taylor Summer 2019 collection written and I asked on my Facebook Page if you liked it when I write all about one brand or mix it up. The votes were overwhelming "Mix It Up!" so I'm going to try and post a different brand every week day. Now, I may have two posts a week from the same brand but not back to back. Since I have more polish than I can wear in a lifetime, I don't think it will be an issue! Now back to my regular schedule - you'll notice my nails are much longer because these pictures were actually taken back in March!

As I was clearing out a box next to my desk, I found another lakur by Londontown color and considering how pretty Londoner Love was, I thought I'd try this light pink jelly, Invisible Crown.
