It's been nail mail week here. I got my previously posted 365 grab bag, my Black Sheep Lacquer bag and here is my Glitter Guilty box for this month. She did a Disney's Frozen theme, and I just love these polishes. I haven't seen the movie yet, so hubby & I will have to rent it soon. I've already done a mani with these, on one hand I did all purple with the blue as an accent nail, and on the other hand I did all blue with the purple as an accent. Looks really cute!!
 
I got the same ones as you. Even though yellow polishes aren't my favorite, this one looks interesting. I'll give it a shot.
Did you have a name on your mini? And yeah I think the yellow looks pretty cool although all the glitter seems to have settled to one side for me and even with rolling and shaking it doesn't seem to move so we will see how it applies.

I applied the yellow on a few nails this morning, and found that if I stood the bottle upside down for a few minutes, most of the glitter in the bottle moved around pretty well (I still had some stuck to the side) and I didn't have any application problems. My impression is that the glitter is dense enough in the bottle, but the base is somewhat thin so it settles fairly quickly.

Nope, no name on the mini.
 
Wow! Looks like a great month. I can't wait to get mine, it's my favorite polish sub :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Is the mini a thermal? I thought i saw her post something on fb about a periwinkle to white thermal?
Ack, I just tested it, and it totally is! Awesome!
Do you use base/topcoat with the thermal polishes? I'm a noob.. I used my BL horsepower and seche topcoat and there's no thermal effect

Nope.  Nothing special.  I don't use any base coat with mine just out of habit.  Top coat has never affected any I own.  Some are way more sensitive than others.

Same with me - I use a top coat and base coat just like I do with any other polishes

On a related note, I'm amazed that I can still smell a scented polish through multiple layers of other polish and a topcoat! I used one coat of Fresh Paint's "Alex's Lemonade" (lemon scented) as an undie for my BSL "Lemon Drop" and I can still smell it. This is my first time using a scented polish, and I'm pleasantly surprised.

That sounds awesome
 
Post pictures! I'm dying to see Lemon Drop in action. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I specifically made it on the thin side, I should have written a note with it to get everyone to turn it upside down first. It was in my head to do it but totally forgot! I had it in a thicker base, but I find with the thicker crelly's the glitter gets covered up with the colour too easily. I love reading this site and getting all of your input, I'm really happy I found this board!

Not the best picture (phone at my desk!), but here you go: Lemon Drop on my thumb (2 costs with an undie of Fresh Paint Alex's Lemonade), and Mod Lacquers Powdered Confection collection on my other fingers:

Nice! I am still waiting on mine.

Please post pics when you get it, I'd love to see if there's differences. Will do.

So pretty, reminds me of Easter candy.

 
I decided to order the mystery mini bag from Rainbow Honey since I didn't get off the wait list for Ipsy until after the bag was shipped for April.   I still got 25% off an order so I thought I would give it a shot.

It looks really good this month. Mine is apparently walking here and should arrive on Monday. I might sign up for the monthly sub, but we have a dr appointment on Monday which could lead to some expensive non-insurance covered treatments so I'm going to hold off til after that. Not to mention that I need more polish like I need a hole in my head. But her minis are so darn cute!!!

I am pretty excited it will be my first Rainbow Honey.  Also I am sure there is some color/shade/finish you don't have.  I hope everything goes well Monday!

Thanks!! I am cautiously optimistic.
 
I am loving Farore by Black Sheep Lacquer it is pretty much white with gold pieces when warm and a medium blue when under cold water. And when I went to get a pickle out of the jar it turned dark blue I was so surprised love it. Oh and it changes just by going outside in the morning. I have short nails so I'm glad it is sensitive.
