Night Owl Lacquer Polish Pickup Exclusive Swatches and Review

**press sample**

Hey there loves! I am super excited for this blog post! I have a new to me brand to share with you all, and I know you're going to love it! This is Night Owl Lacquer's contribution to this month's Polish Pick Up theme, Under the Sea. Isn't she stunning?
Before we jump into swatches, let me quickly explain what the Polish Pick Up is. The Polish Pick Up is a collaboration of various indie polish makers creating polishes based on a theme that the group votes on each month. Unlike regular collar boxes, you get to pick and choose which polishes you buy each month! Now that you know a little bit about how this collab works, let's get into some swatches!
Night Owl Lacquer's contribution, 'With Fronds Like These, Who Needs Anemones', is a blue base polish with purple sparks, bright blue micro flakies, and scattered holo. Lindsay's inspiration pick was a gorgeous photo of a blue sea anemone. I think Nemo would be proud! This polish is truly gorgeous. The formula was really nice and easy to work with. Application was smooth and effortless. Swatches show three thin coats, but can totally pass with just two thicker coats. Last photo shows the polish matte and its amazing!





This and all the other Polish Pickup polishes will be available for preorder from the PPU website from June 2nd until June 5th. The Night Owl Lacquer will be $9 plus the PPU flat shipping rate of $3. I'm really impressed with this polish and can't wait to try more from NOL! Be sure to join both the NOL and the PPU Facebook groups for all the latest news and launches. Thanks so much for stopping by!

KBShimmer Nail Polish The Office Space Collection Swatches & Review

**press sample**


Hello, hello my friends! Hope all is well. I am slowly recuperating from this horrid cold, but today is a special day and I am so excited to share these pretties with you! Yesterday, January 4th, KBShimmer launched their newest collection and it is amazing! Here is, The Office Space Collection!
This 8 piece collection is perfect for when you want to rebel a little, but stay within the lines. These are described as naughty and neutral shades that are perfect for the office-you get color and sparkle on your nails, while keeping your boss happy. So without further ado, lets get into some swatches!

Take Back CTRL
Take Back CTRL is a dusty rose, mauve leaning creme. She is described as the perfect punch of pink for the workplace. Swatches show two coats plus KBShimmer Clearly On Top top coat.



Supplies Party
Supplies Party is a warm cream liquid metal, aka Birthstone Finish, loaded with metallic flakes and holo sparks. She is described as a color that will make even the 5th meeting of the day seem enjoyable. Swatches show two coats plus Clearly On Top top coat.



Staple Relationship
Staple Relationship is a deep grey crelly with purple undertones full of silvery flakes and holo sparkles. She represents those days when it seems like the stapler is the best work relationship you have, until you cast your eyes on this metallic shade on your tips. Swatches show three thin coats plus Clearly On Top top coat.



Makin' Copies
Makin' Copies is a pale silver filled with white shimmer and linear holo sparkles. She's said to really show her sparkles when the light from the copy machine hits. Swatches show three thin coat and Clearly On Top top coat.



Fax of Life
Fax of Life is a platinum grey linear holo. She's described as being perfect for a sparkly grey manicure both indoors and out! Swatches show two coats plus Clearly On Top top coat.



Cubicle Pusher
Cubicle Pusher is a muted holographic grape polish. This polish will make your nails the one topic of conversation you don't mind if your cubicle neighbor hears! Swatches show two coats plus Clearly On Top top coat.



Caught on Tape
Caught on Tape is a pale mauve creme. She's described as a trendy pale shade that will make your nails pop on even the worst security camera. Swatches show two coats plus Clearly On Top top coat.



A Hint of Manila
A Hint of Manila is a soft tan mega flame with holographic sparkle. She's described as vanilla but not boring, and will make filing a pleasure. Swatches show three thin coats plus Clearly On Top top coat.



The formulas on all the polishes were really fantastic. They all applied really easily and gave zero issues. I do highly recommend letting each coat fully dry before moving on to the next when using the polishes with glitter and flakies, to insure the best possible application. For all swatches I used KBShimmer's Fillin' Groovy Ridge Filling base coat and Clearly on Top quick dry top coat.

I really enjoyed this collection a lot. The colors are beautiful and unique, definite must haves for the workplace and more. This collection is available now for $9.25 on the KBShimmer website. Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to let me know which pretties you decide on picking up. Until next time my friends!
