Girly Bits V.I.Polish IEC 2017

Nothing To Disclose

In 2017, I went to IEC—Indie Expo Canada—in Toronto, Canada. It was my first time in Canada and my first time traveling internationally by myself. I was so excited to go and really enjoyed my time. Today I'm sharing Girly Bits V.I.Polish IEC 2017, which was originally a medium denim blue with blue and silver flakes, holo and blue shimmer. Mine has faded quite a bit to a dark blue and the shimmer switches from blue to purple in different lights.

This is my final polish from my August Pookie's Polish Swap. I still have my November and January ones to post but hey, baby steps. This is Atomic Polish Does This Sound Like A Man Who Needs To Be In A Hospital? I think this is the longest polish name I've ever owned. Now, this was from the Hella Handmade Creations July 2023 "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia." This is a pale blue base with an aqua to green shimmer shift.

A pause in my normal blogging schedule to post about the Zoya Color of the Month for January - Yuki. This a tinted white base with opalescent flakes that sparkle. You can wear it alone or over another shade of your choise.

Cadillacquer I Don't Know What To Say

Nothing To Disclose

I'm winding down the rest of my Pookie's Polish Swap and this is Cadillacquer I Don't Know What To Say. This thermal was from 2021 so I do think it's faded since the bottle shots I see online are much more red and my bottle is more pink. It's supposed to be a red to "colorless" thermal but it looks more blue to me in the warm state.

Colores de Carol Red Hot Flannel

Nothing To Disclose

Another new-to-me brand! This is Colores de Carol Red Hot Flannel, a red magnetic polish from the Polish Pick Up for October 2023. Now the original description says it's a deep oxblood with green, gold, copper, purple shift, fairy flakes and multidimensional magnetic effect.
