Polish Pickup Pack - December 2019

Polish Pickup Pack - December 2019


This is the final month of PPU for 2019! Time has really flown by fast!! As the sale window closes on the 6th, I've got a few things to show in case there is any last minute shopping left, or if anyone's just looking to reference the polishes down the road ;)


*Polishes provided as press samples for review*

Bee's Knees Lacquer
NameBlood Magic
Price: $13
Cap: none
Description: a burgundy based polish with bright red to green shimmer and OG UP (red to green) ghost flakes
Inspiration: inspired by the way dragon eggs were hatched in Game of Thrones 

Bee's Knees Lacquer - Blood Magic
3 coats + top coat for swatches - this red polish really glows! And the shimmers and flakes warm it up even more, glimmering like gold

JReine

NameCrystal Star
Price: $13
Cap: 400
Description: a super shifty baby blue that shifts fuchsia/red/green/gold
Inspiration: LOL Winter Disco
JReine - Crystal Star
3 this coats + top coat - I could still see a hint of VNL on some nails, but it's very slight - the shimmers in the polish help draw the eye away from that. The pink and green were the most visible for me and it's such a delicate color! I felt that I just needed some snowflakes and it would be a perfect simple winter mani!

JReine is participating in IPU this month as well - with another stunning powder!Pixie Magic Kit - $15, cap 400
Kit includes - .30 grams of pixie powder Disco & applicator, 5ml bottle of Super Base. Disco shifts red/green/gold with a beautiful holo flame


The powder is a light grey color with a red shimmer, but boy does it light up a polish!! I used a teal base, applied Super Base and burnished the powder in after about 20 seconds. Then top coated with Seche Vite and voila!


So if that's now amazing enough, it turns out that the teal polish I grabbed to be my undies is actually a thermal! It's a baby blue in warm state and teal in cold - if anyone's curious, it's Hey, Listen! by Lucky 13 Lacquer
