Colores de Carol - October Polish Pickup

Hello Lovely People! 

Today I would like to share with you more about the PPU (Polish Pickup)

The Polish Pickup is a Facebook Group where makers create a unique nail polish, or another product based on a theme. 

Each month Polish Pickup will bring you a variety of polishes from indie makers.

 The shop is live the first Friday, 11 AM EST, of each month and stays open for four days, through the following Monday at Midnight EST.  This is the ONLY time frame in which the monthly polishes will be available for purchase.

Polish Pickup ships for a flat fee of $3 in the US and $5 for Canada. They ship internationally at an extra cost.  All polishes are pre-ordered and will be shipped approximately 3 weeks after the sale closes. 

💀💀💀💀

This month's theme is "Villains" and I created a polish inspired by Skeletor. 

Colores de Carol "Nemesis Of Eternia" 

A deep purple base with Aurora shimmer (purple/red), gold/copper multi-chrome magnetic and UCC flakes.

$12 (Magnet included) No cap

Nemesis Of Eternia is available until tomorrow Monday Oct 8th at www.polishpickup.com

Don't forget to join the Facebook Group where you can interact and have fun with all of the makers and thousands of indie lovers, you'll also be the first to know what next month's theme is, along with exclusive sneak peaks.  

Thank you very much for reading!

Happy Halloween

Hello Beauties!

Today I would like to share with you my Halloween nails.

I used three polishes from OPI, I Cannoli Wear OPI, Juice Bar Hopping and Good Grief! To create the gradient effect I used a fan brush to apply the polishes.

For the stamping I used the two Halloween plates from ÜberChic Beauty.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Sally Hansen Pacific Blue

Hello!!

Today I will be sharing with you these cute Halloween nails I just did. I used the one and only Pacific Blue from Sally Hansen (the original formula)

This is the most amazing blue I've ever seen. It's perfect, completely opaque in one coat. It applied smoothly and evenly.

For the stamping I used the two Halloween plates for ÜberChic Beauty.

Do you own Pacific Blue? A while ago Sally Hansen reformulated this shade and came out with a horrible version of it. I'm glad I've scored a couple of bottles as a back up and realizing now that I won't need them all I would like to give away a bottle to one of you.

Just leave a comment telling me what is the number one nail polish on your wish list. I'll pick a winner sometime next week. (It's international)

Thank you very much for reading!
