I'm finally reviewing my final cuccio collection that I had received from the company. The "Paradiso" Spring/Summer 2023 collection was a throwback to cuccio's Italian roots. So I've noticed that cuccio has definitely been more into their gels and nail care but in looking at their website, they did have a Spring/Summer 2026 collection called Spellbound that has both lacquer and gel. Back to today's polish - this is Monza Monza, a poppy red shimmer.

Today's polish is really bittersweet (IYKYK). This is Shinespark Nail Polish Moondust Holo, a scattered holo topper. The reason this is so bittersweet is that the brand owner, Molly Watson, was murdered by her fiance who was living a double life. She and I had talked quite a bit about her fiance back when I was active on BabyCenter during my pregnancy with my second kiddo so this has just been a hard memory to go through.

Sometimes I forgot about the polishes I have like this unicorn from Ninja Polish called Mystic Glacier. This was from the Enigma collection and it's a soft blue base with multichromatic pigments in copper and green. I've seen this polish sell for nearly $100 on resale sites and I have been tempted.

I have my last polish from the latest Pookie Polish Swap and this is Alchemy Lacquers Effervescent from the Peacock Parade collection that I think was released in Summer 2022. This is a beautiful glowy blue polish with green duochrome shimmer.

I'm powering through my latest Pookie's Polish Swap and today is Pahlish Kismet, from the 2025 "Life of a Showgirl" collection. Kismet is a prussian blue with fine purple/pink/gold shimmer. Now, the prussian blue is so hard to photograph but it is the base especially in the first two coats.
