From left to right: Key Lime Pie, Frooty Pebbles (both from Etsy discontinued), Sapphire customer appreciation mini (for spending $30.00), Snow White, Rachel's birthday polish (for spending $15.00) , Retro Chic (discontinue), Random Access Memories, Galaxy Quest, Superman, Halloween 2.0 and Green Bay Packers (both of the latter I had mini's and had to get full size).  I loved the earrings in her mystery bag that were made with the Random Access polish and had to buy it also.

Such pretty colors!

Boo for sinking glitters.  After reading a review of Glitter Food besides being a great topcoat for glitter polishes it works to fix these.  I removed by syringe as much of the liquid that I could without loosing glitter and replaced it with Glitter Food.  That was about 10 hours ago and it's still holding up.  I put a pic of the Glitter Food with to show how much I actually had to use. I can't wait to see what it does on top of the glitters.  Anyone using it currently?


I never heard of that but wow looks like it works great!

Ok, so wait....I've never heard of this....your glitter polish separated and you put that stuff in and it brought it back? Really? First of all, I've never seen a glitter polish separate like that, and second, that you can bring it back!! That's cool!!!

Has anyone used Super Black? I think they look beautiful, but I haven't tried them yet. I want the holographic/color change ones, Whip or Wishful Thinking. If you have tried it... will you post a photo?

Yeah basically if a polish base isn't a suspension base the glitter will sink.  I read a lot about it awhile ago and was interested in getting it as a topcoat for some of my indie glitters.  This is the first time that I have ever had a polish sink like that so I figured now was a good time to try it.

Ladies, any help you can give me is appreciated!!  My birthday is next month and I am looking to treat myself big time, you only turn 40 once, right??  I want to get some indie polish grab bags and I am wondering what your favorite ones are.  I have already gotten ones from Hit Polish, Darling Diva and Polish Addict and I'm just looking for different ones.  I'd prefer to get the biggest bang for my buck to make my birthday really special.  Any ones you have gotten that you really love??  Any ones that aren't worth the price?  Thanks in advance!!

I really like this one http://overallbeauty.com/shop/nail-polish-gift-grab-bag/

It's not the best bang for your buck but you can request particular brands & colors. II have a review on my blog (I bought 2 more but haven't had time to review it yet) if you are curious. You get 3 full size polishes & some nail art supplies. 

I recently found this one but haven't tried it yet https://serumno5.com/product/surprise-pack/

This is a really good deal but I've never tried any of her polishes

Thanks for the recommendations!! I ordered one from the third link you posted...I will share pics when it comes in. I also got in on the Llarowe restock today and ordered an intro grab bag, so again, I will post pics when that arrives. That's it for now, but I plan on ordering more throughout the month as funds allow, so if you know of any others I should try, I will be a guinea pig!!! ðŸ–

Yay, I got a shipping notice for the Hit Polish Dark Crystal mystery grab bag!  I was afraid it would sell out before she got to my order since there were only sixteen sets made.  I have no clue how many are usually available.  

(And it turns out that proceeds from it are going to the Humane Society of York County to pay for surgery for a Blue Heeler puppy that was thrown out of a car.  It makes me want to go grab my monsters -- both formerly stray kittens -- and snuggle them because our local humane society got ahold of them before they were injured or abused, although Edgar had a nasty upper respiratory infection when I adopted them that left him a little bit underdeveloped physically, although he's really smart.  Oscar is big and...  not as smart.  They kind of remind me of Lennie and George sometimes.  I just hope that their endings are dissimilar.)

I missed the OOAK I wanted but I she's incredibly fast with the shipping.  I ordered from her sale last Friday and they were right there in my mailbox on Monday!  So glad to know I helped a puppy too.

Another sleepless night ordering indies online!  I keep adding to this incredibly long list I have in a notebook dedicated to nothing but polish.  Good thing for my wallet I told myself only 1 bottle.  (but that was before midnight, isn't it technically another day???)

Technically. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> A bottle of lacquer a day keeps the doctor away. I think that's what they say anyway. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Hey, it's a midnight deadline for Mogwai-to-Gremlin conversion! It should work for this sort of reset as well.

OMG these are so pretty!!  I can't wait until I get off work to swatch them I just quick snapped a photo on break when I ran to get the mail.

 

[NotTheMama]

Wow...love those!! I have a mystery box from Llarowe waiting at home for me, I will post pics when I get off work.

 

[meaganola]

The white one has a whole lot of microholo glitter that doesn't show up on camera.  Time to take off this Sally Hansen Chrome (shade: Pure Chrome) and switch to something sparkly for Tuesday Nails once I decide which one to get!
