OPI Pompeii Purple
8.07.2025
I only have a handful of polishes left from this Pookie's Polish Swap and today I have OPI Pompeii Purple. This is a fuchsia purple with a pearl finish.
Chill Zone Sun-Kissed Kisses
7.10.2025
Today's Chill Zone polish is called Sun-Kissed Kisses, a rosy pink opaque pearl. I think this was my favorite color of the bunch. I've always loved this hue of color. The website says this is a cream, but there's a subtle pearl shimmer.
lakur by Londontown Weekend Cheers
6.28.2025
As I was auditing my polish, I found 4 lakur by Londontown polishes in my stash. Today I'm sharing Weekend Cheers, a coral pink creme with a tiny slight pearl finish.
SPARITUAL Winter Berry
5.28.2025
Here's a brand I haven't seen in a hot minute! This is SPARITUAL Winter Berry, a purple-based pearl. They call it a shimmer, but to me, this is a pearl finish. I have the full size bottle here but this was also available in their Otherworldly Mini Kit.
Morgan Taylor All Sands on Deck
5.22.2025
Did you see the live-action Disney movie The Little Mermaid? I thought it was beautiful and was happy to see Morgan Taylor partner with Disney for a collection. This is Morgan Taylor All Sands on Deck, a yellow pearl.
essie pinkies out
5.19.2025
I pulled another creme out of my Pookie's Polish Swap - this is essie pinkies out. It's a pearly apricot coral with a hot pink/red flash.
China Glaze Nickel Ice
4.22.2025
Here's a real throwback today! I have China Glaze Nickel Ice, a grey iridescent pearl shimmer. The pearl leans pink. This is a pre-2000, original core-line polish. I don't have the exact year it came out but with all the talk about the China Glaze rebrand (I'm writing this prior to the big release news on April 20), I thought it would be fun to revisit my oldies.
All Mixed Up Lacquers Maximum Effort!
4.20.2025
Today I have a 2024-released polish that was inspired by Deadpool. This is All Mixed Up Lacquers Maximum Effort!, and it's a red with peal shimmer. The shimmer really throws me off but it's definitely something unique.
OPI Significant Other Color
4.12.2025
I am trying to make some room in my Helmers and grabbed OPI Significant Other Color, a pink/lilac pearl with green shimmer. I don't remember when I got this bottle but I had never seen anything like it. It's crazy how many bottles of OPI have and I was super grateful when I used to be on their media list and would get advanced samples.
Kokie Hotline
4.03.2025
During one of my Pookie's Polish Swaps, I got this bottle of Kokie "Green Polish" called Hotline. This is an orange pearl/metallic polish. I first saw Kokie at Cosmoprof, grabbed a few bottles and was told that it would be in my local cvs/pharmacy soon. I'll be honest, I haven't kept up with the brand but this "green line" says it's 16-free with 83% bio-sourced with clean, plant-based ingredients.
Sally Hansen Out of this Pearl
12.30.2023
I have another Sally Hansen Miracle Gel™ polish today - Out of this Pearl. This a frosty rose gold polish.
ella + mila everglow
5.31.2023
Another soft and sweet polish from ella + mila today with everglow. This is a holographic pearl shimmer that has a lot of pink tones.
Zoya Angel
4.11.2023
Back in the day, Zoya was one of my biggest PR supporters, and I appreciated being able to receive full collections at no-cost, to swatch and share on my blog. I was removed from their list during my inactivity but recently found that they had re-added me and I received the Pink Palette - Summer 2022. Today I have Angel, an iridescent pink lace overlay with periwinkle and golden glitter. Two things about this polish... it is best over other polishes and yes, there was another Zoya "Angel" back in early 2000s - a light pink pearl.
China Glaze Ah Ah Ah-mazing!
4.01.2023
It's April Fools Day and well, China Glaze has done it to me again. This is the finale from the "You Do Hue" 2019 collection with Sesame Street - Ah Ah Ah-mazing!, a metallic pearl purple.
duri The Struggle Is Real
8.17.2021
As I mentioned yesterday, duri has a line of nail lacquers (psst: they carry gel too!) and today I have a pearlescent and sheer white with a fine, classic glitter. This is The Struggle Is Real ($8.50).
nubar Purple Aster
1.04.2021
I don't know what happened in December. Granted, it was my 37th birthday in there somewhere, and there was Christmas and New Years and things just kind of melted together. Another thing that happened was my 8th wedding anniversary and to celebrate, we had family portraits taken by Sweetest Snaps Photography. I found Ashlee through a mom friend who has a daughter the same age as my middle son. I saw a photo in their house that was just breathtaking of her and her two girls and I asked who did them and she told me about Sweetest Snaps.
Morgan Taylor Can You See My Aura?
11.26.2020
Happy Thanksgiving! As I mentioned before, this is my least favorite holiday but it's just because I don't eat turkey or ham or most the "traditional" dishes that you're probably about to eat. When I was a kid, my Mom did the traditional dinner ONCE... used the fine china, invited her two brothers and their families... and at the end of it, she was burned out physically and emotionally. From then on, Thanksgiving became more a day of relaxing and being thankful and less about the food. In fact, what we'd do is go to the deli the day before and get all our favorite meats, cheeses and finger foods (crackers, pickles, you know what I'm talking about) and we'd have what my mom called a "smorgasbord." However, it more resembled the charcuterie boards that I drool over on Instagram.
Today I picked Morgan Taylor Can You See My Aura? to wear. This was part of the Ullusion Platinum Collection from summer 2019. It's a white duo-chrome that shifts pink pearl. When I first saw it, I was like "Oh, that's pretty" but then it just sat on my shelf. However, the reason I pulled it now is because I'm super thankful for Morgan Taylor. They were always really nice to me at Cosmoprof North America when I'd go, and supported PolishGalore for years with press samples.
Morgan Taylor A Starry Night
4.23.2020
Only two left in the Morgan Taylor winter 2019 Champagne and Moonbeams collection and today is an indigo pearl called A Starry Night. Now, I think this would have been super beautiful with an accent nail of Sprinkle of Twinkle but I'm rearranging my nail polishes (again? yes again), I had already put that polish up in its drawer.
Morgan Taylor Follow The Petals
3.29.2019
I only received 5 of the 6 polishes from the Color of Petals collection so today I have the last one - Follow The Petals which is a pearl pink. If you've been reading awhile you know how I feel about pearl polishes but let's see what happened when I applied.
China Glaze Toast It Up
6.12.2018
I have some exciting news coming soon and it requires a clean desk for me so I'm going through some more polishes that are sitting around, waiting to be worn and written about. Today is one that has been here for over 6 months, partially because I've been giving it the side eye. This is China Glaze Toast It Up from the Glam Finale collection.
