It's the final day of the countdown to PolishCon! The kid had a day off school yesterday so we spent the day cleaning and enjoying our time together since I'll be gone this weekend. So, I'm sorry for leaving you hanging, but I have this one last post to leave you with before I head out later tonight. We are finishing this week off with the beautiful exclusives that will be available at Bohemian Polish's table this weekend. I also have seven new cuticle oil scents that will be released at PolishCon! I can't wait for you to smell these. Each one is incredible! Keep reading to find out more! 

It's Wednesday!! That means it is day 3 of the countdown to PolishCon! This time I've got a new collection and 3 exclusives that will be at LynBDesign's table this weekend! Be prepared to have a couple laughs, as the collection she will be releasing at PolishCon is the You're Punny Collection. It is a set of 9 polishes all with adorably punny names. You'll find some beautiful holos, some playful crellies, lots of shimmer, flakies, and glitter even! A little something for everyone in there! Keep reading to find out more about these, as well as the exclusives she will have available!!

It's day two in the countdown to PolishCon! Today, I'm showing you some polishes and hand care that will be available at Ever After's table. I'm sure you've seen the Flake it Up Jellies Collection...I really hope you're not tired of these gorgeous flakie filled jellies, because you're getting ready to see them again! Just a warning to those of you attending PolishCon, you're going to have a very hard time narrowing down what you will be walking away from the Ever After table with. I hope my post today helps you make up your mind a little bit. 

It's Monday, y'all!!! Do you know what that means?! We are starting the countdown to Chicago 2017 PolishCon! This Saturday is the big event and it's back in Chicago! I'm so excited that I get to go again! This time, I'll be working though. If you're going, stop by the Bad Bitch Polish table! You'll get to tell Brit and I "Hi!", and you'll get to buy some gorgeous polish!! I've got a couple more trios to show you today, as well as the October Birthstone Duo and the PolishCon exclusive. Get your shopping list ready and keep reading! There's a lot to see!!

I've got the new House of Neptune Collection from Little Black Dress Nail Lacquer to show you all today! Any collection that has a mermaid theme is good in my book, and this set of four polishes are perfect for a multitude of mermaid manis. Courtne always has a fun theme or story behind her collections. When I first heard of this collection I immediately got excited. They definitely didn't disappoint! Keep reading to find out more!

You guys...I'm back...I'm tired and I don't think there is enough coffee in the world to keep me awake, but I'm back! We had an absolute blast in NYC though! Kiddo had a great birthday...we did a lot, we saw a lot, we walked a lot, and we slept very little. So much fun! 

However, today, I get to show you one one of the beautiful polishes from the final week of the Road to PolishCon! This week's contributors are LynBDesigns and Pretty Jelly. Both fantastic brands, but I only have the polish from LynBDesigns to show you. Remember, these are only available for a short period of time, so don't miss out on your chance to get this. Keep reading to check it out!

With the coming of fall comes a new collection from Zoya. For me, both are equally exciting!! The Sophisticates Collection is really just that. Extremely sophisticate! The color are rich and deep and elevated. I know I say this with every collection from Zoya, but it is always true...each collection is better than the last. The Sophisticates Collection is no exception to that statement. These are amazing! I wanted to show these off to you before we leave for vacation tomorrow. So, keep reading to find out more!! 

It's the first day of school here in Maryland. It's weird having the house so quiet this early. But I'm enjoying my coffee without any interruptions and, as much as I miss her...I've missed this. Can't relax for long cause I have to start prepping for our vacation. Today, I get to show you the newest collection from SuperChic Lacquer. She decided to stay away from her super holos this time, and went for more of a playful route...glow-in-the-dark polishes. The Firefly Collection is a set of seven super-squishy, transparent, jelly shades that consist of 3 amazing special effects: intense reflective iridescent micro glitters, scattered holo micro glitters, and a strong glow in the dark pigment. This is the perfect set of rainbow beauties for a manicure fit for a night at a haunted house. Keep reading to find out more!

Summer is almost over, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy some gorgeous neons! Not only neons...but neons with flakies!! Necessary Evil Polish has gone and given us just that! Her Neon Collection is inspired by the valley girls of the Bay Area during the 1980's. This set of five vibrant, squishy jellies are the perfect way to close out this summer. I kinda messed up in my last post and showed off one of the polishes already, but you'll be seeing it again along with the rest of the collection. Just keep reading!!

It's September, y'all!! How in the world are we already in the ninth month of the year?! This is bonkers! My kid starts school next week. This seems unreal. Time flies! However, on a good note, LynBDesigns will be releasing her September Monthly Duo as well as a new batch of Beautiful Mistakes. I think she's saving all the other stuff to release at PolishCon at the end of the month. *hint hint* These will be releasing today though, and the Beautiful Mistakes are all VERY limited edition. So, make a list so you can snag what you want as soon as they are available! Keep reading to find out more!

I can't believe that September will be here tomorrow!!! I'm so glad my kiddo will be starting school next week, but tomorrow Bad Bitch Polish will be re-opening her shop after being in vacation mode so she could move. She has several items that will be releasing, like the September Birthstone Duo, the Spooktacular Creams Trio, and the Crisp Nights Trio. She will also have all of the previous Birthstone Duos back in stock as well. I didn't get to show you one of those when they first released, so we are going to start off the post with the August Birthstone Duo! Keep reading to find out more!

I know I showed you one beauty from Fanchromatic Nails, but I've got two more to show you all today. These, however, are new releases that will be available in her shop tomorrow! Not only are these polishes so much fun, but they come from fantastic inspirations too! This brand may be new to me, but I have to say I have been incredibly impressed with everything I've used so far. This might be my new brand to watch! Keep reading to find out why!

It's time for another Polish Pickup!! September's theme is Fall Foliage and Fun. And the direction some people have taken this theme is absolutely fantastical!! The next Polish Pickup will be open for pre-order this weekend! Don't worry, this post is no where near as long as my last Polish Pickup blog. I only have five of the polishes that will be available this time around. Keep reading to find out more about these.

September is almost here, and fall is just around the corner and the fall collections are starting to arrive. I don't know about you all, but I am so ready for the jewel-toned heaven! On September 1st, Different Dimension will be releasing her Someday We'll All Be Memories Too Collection. A set of 6 rich and deep polishes perfect for the fall and winter months. I was blown away by these, and the holos were all one coaters for me. Incredibly impressive!! Not that DD could ever disappoint. Keep reading to find out more about this transitional collection.

Any fans of the movie Grease here? Well, if you love the movie, you're in for a treat!! If not, and you're just here for the polish...you're still in for a treat! Turtle Tootsie Polishes went and created a Grease inspired collection, and she did it justice!! I can tell she had a blast with these! They are so happy! You have a couple days before it is released, so go take a peek at these. Have your wish list handy because it will be growing. Warning, you'll be singing while flipping through this post. 

Today at noon MST Literary Lacquers will be doing a release of a couple special limited edition polishes and a re-release of some pretty incredible past shades. I have the birthday LE beauty to show you right now, as well as a couple that are re-releasing that I already own. Everything LitLaq does is incredible. This LE polish is perfection. You want to put it on your wish list immediately. Trust me! Keep reading to get a peek, and to find out more about what will be released.

We're going to take a little throw back today. I've got a set of macaron inspired pearlescent polishes from My Stunning Nails. This set of six pretties is the Macaroon Delight Collection. Yes, with two O's. But each one is, in fact, named for a different flavor of the French, almond-based, sweet. NOT the coconut one. She is a big fan of the traditional pearlescent polishes and decided to do a nice little rainbow set. She originally made them with iridescent flakies, but they were drowned out by the base. She took them out, and kept it simple. Keep reading to check them out!

I'm going to keep it short and sweet today. Cupcake Polish recently made a few customs for the Indie Polish Lovers United Facebook group. This stunning, creamy, coppery, peach beauty caught my eye and I knew I just had to have it! I feel weird just ordering one polish, so I had to grab something else to go with it. I was feeling pinks, and this other one seemed to completely jump out at me. I fell in love with these, so keep reading to get a peek at my swatches. 

I recently received a package from Essie and Preen.me. I admit, it's been a while since I've used an Essie polish. The ones I had previously were difficult to work with and I realized I wasn't a fan of the brushes. When this opportunity came up I knew it was the perfect chance to try again. I'm so glad I did! I received ten polishes from their core line as well as a top coat, and I was pleased as punch with each and every one! Keep reading to find out more!

I'm sorry I was absent yesterday. I needed a break. I went to type up my post the night before, and my computer basically gave me the bird. I ended up being on the phone with Apple Care for over 3 hours. We didn't hang up until almost midnight. Needless to say I went to bed after that and figured I'd take the day off to hang with the kiddo. But, I'm back, and I've got three more Message in a Bottle Polishes from Anchor & Heart Lacquer to show you all today. She did a quick and short release of these a bit ago, then went on vacation so they could move. Now that they are settled, her shop is back open. The month's I have for you today are June, July, and August. September is right around the corner so make sure you grab these before the next batch is released. Go take a look!

I've got some more beauties from JulieG to show you all today! I received their limited edition Bohemian Dreams Collection, and you all are in for a treat! These six creams are not only great for year-round wear, but they have some of the most incredible formulas! It is hard to believe you can find them at a drugstore. Again, these are limited edition. Keep reading to find out why you don't want to miss out on these!

Anyone else get a super sweet tooth during the summer months? It seems I'm not the only one! Candy was the theme for The Indie Shop a couple months ago, and now My Stunning Nails, Polish 'M, and Alter Ego Body Care Products decided to come together to give us the Candy Polish Box! A sweet little trio that is perfect for satisfying a little craving! Mark your calendars because you'll be able to pre-order the Candy Polish Box this weekend!! Keep reading to find out about these sweet treats and to see my swatches!

Different Dimension has been cranking out some amazing products! If you missed my post on the 90's Trio go check it out! Then, come back here so you can take a look at what she just released this past weekend. The Wild Spirit Trio is a set of three polishes to help the transition from summer into fall. They are the perfect for when it's too hot out for vampy colors and too cold out for neons. However, if you know me and my blog, you know I love neons in the winter months. However, this trio is definitely a fabulous transitional set. Keep reading to find out more about these!

I was recently contacted by LeChat Nails to review some of their products. I had never tried this brand before so I was super excited. I had seen them in stores, but only the gel versions. I honestly didn't even realize they had regular polish. When I realized they had regular polish I jumped at the chance. I will have several posts on LeChat Nails over the next couple weeks, but lets start off with four polishes from their Dare to Wear Mood Polish line. 

I was recently contacted by Madam Glam about reviewing some products. I had never tried any of their products before, so I jumped on the chance. Of course, it took me forever to narrow it down. I basically told them to send them whatever they felt like. I'm not good at narrowing things down. I was absolutely pleased at everything they sent though. It was my first experience with Madam Glam, and I don't think it will be my last.

It's time for more pretties from Little Black Dress Nail Lacquer. This time, she's gone balls to the wall and filled three basic summer colors with holo. Drawing inspiration from some of her favorite gemstones, she's given us the Summer Holo Gemstone Collection. These holos are intense and will be perfect year round wear. You're going to have a lot of fun with these! 

Top Shelf Lacquer has teamed back up with Crystal's Charity Lacquers for August 2017, along with Cupcake Polish. The charity for August 2017 is the BCSPCA. I know a lot of us in the nail community have a soft spot for animals of any kind, so this month's charity will be special to many! I have both of the polishes that Top Shelf Lacquer created on the blog today. They are beautiful, and you're going to want them both...you've been warned!

I'm sorry for skipping this post on Friday, but I spent a couple days taking my kid back and forth between different appointments. I can't believe I'm having to start getting ready for school to start. Luckily, here, they decided to push back the starting date to the day after Labor Day. I have about a month before she actually starts, but might as well get it done now. 

Now, I get to show you this amazing new collection that LynBDesigns on Friday. LynBDesigns has never created a full collection of holos, so this is kind of a big deal for her. The MK Ultra Holos Collection is a set of nine super creamy holos that are sure to be basic requirements in everyone's collection. I know you probably saw a ton of amazing swatches last week, but humor me and take a peek at what I have to show you. 

It's been one hell of a week here on the blog...we've had my giant Polish Pickup post, some incredible neons, and a sneak peek into fall. It wouldn't be a complete week if we didn't have an all pink post! Pug Posse Nail Lacquer has gone and released a playful The Pink Collection! I may be ready for fall, but you can give me a lovely pink any day of the year! These four are adorable, and one was even named by her son. Pink will never get old! Go check 'em out!

It is now August, and I'm so freaking ready for fall. I'm surprised I haven't melted into a giant puddle of skin and goo. It's been so hot and I'm completely over it! Well, Polish My Life has come to my rescue and is giving us a little taste of cooler, crisper weather with the Sweet Sips of Fall Collection. These four are for sure must haves for the fall. Go take a look and dream of cooler weather with me! 

I know yesterday's post was a doozy. I won't apologize for that...it was a pretty epic post. But today, Tuesday, August 1st, are you prepared to have your life changed forever? Yes, it is a pretty bold statement, but these neons are incredibly life changing. Different Dimension went and did a thing and is now giving us the incredibly nostalgic 90's Trio. I do love a good neon, but these are f*cking GREAT neons!! They were created specifically for nail art, stamping and watermarbling...seriously just try to hold back the ideas as you're scrolling! Go check it out!

First things first...before you go any further make sure you go to the bathroom, grab a snack, a cup of coffee/tea/whatever you drink in the morning, and make sure you have the notes section of your phone ready to go to keep track of what you're going to want. 

Now, that you are ready to go, I'm the guest blogger for the August Polish Pickup. August's theme is Old Hollywood, and you can tell these ladies had a blast getting creative. This post is a doozy!! I didn't receive two of the polishes, but I still included ways for you to see them here. I didn't want to leave anything out. I'm not going to babble on anymore. There is too much to see!

Who doesn't love mermaids?! Well, Envy Lacquer has gone and decided to give us the Mermaid at Sea Collection. This collection is a set of six beauties that are sure to leave an impression. The ladies who will be attending the Indie Shop tomorrow will get to snag these first! They won't be available to the public until August. You won't have to wait too long. Let's get to it, I loved these too much to babble on.

It's almost August!! Which means you only have a couple more days to buy July's Fantasmic Flakies custom from Lantern & Wren. Grab it...you'll love it!! I'm going to show you what you have to look forward to for August's Fantasmic Flakies custom from Pretty Jelly! And I'm going to be honest with you all...I don't think you're ready for this jelly...

I'm super excited about today's post. I was contacted by Dave, the man behind Octopus Party Nail Lacquer and just the coolest guy ever, to work with some of his upcoming products. Ummmmmm DUH!! I fell in love with Octopus Party Nail Lacquer after I was forced by Jen to buy some of his polish at PolishCon NYC. He has a knack for color combos and this is one man who knows his way to a woman's heart...SPARKLE! These will be available to pre-order in just a few days so we are going to jump right into things.

You guys got a hodge-podge of products from one brand yesterday. Today, You're going to be seeing a collection, a trio, and a limited edition polish from another brand...Leesha's Lacquer. I haven't had any of her products on my blog since my PolishCon NYC VIP bag review. So, it's about time! Her new Drag Eleganza Extravaganza Collection is inspired by RuPaul's Drag Race. It is a set of six fabulous and vibrant neons with just the right amount of holo sparkle. In addition to the Drag Eleganza Extravaganza Collection, I also have her 4th of July Trio and her limited edition pride-inspired polish. Yeah, I know it's almost August, but she got caught up with school and things happen. But these are fantastic, so...4th of July or not...you'll enjoy these! But, since there is so much to show you...let's get to it!

It's Monday, and I'm just not feeling today. I dunno what it is...I'm normally good with Mondays. So, I'm trying to brighten things up a bit. I have a ton of swatch spam to show you from the new and wonderful Necessary Evil Polish. I have the last two thirds of her Galactic Collection, a new Summer California Dreaming line, and a super special polish that doesn't belong in a collection. You guys, this brand is going places! You need to hop on board now! Ready to take a peek?!

It's already time for another anniversary set of polishes to help Elvenspun celebrate the joyous occasion!! Turtle Tootsie Polishes is at it again with a gorgeous duo! This set brought me so much joy! They are so cheerful and perfect for this celebratory event. They can easily be used alone or together. The more versatile, the better...right?! The owner of Elvenspun created these herself. If you're not familiar with Elvenspun, it is a shop with handmade clay sculptures, jewelry, and glassware. She even has a couple paintings available! Check out her shop, but first, check out this duo!

I was recently contacted by a company to try their product. Before I answered, I looked up the company. I found out that Edge Perfection is a nail tape. I don't normally do a lot where I have to use it, but when they said it was 5 Free, Ammonia Free, AND Thiuram Free...I knew I just HAD to try it. Most of what bothers me with latex nail tape is the smell. I get scent induced headaches too often and if I could find something that worked for me that didn't have that horrible smell I knew I'd find a keeper!

Hold onto your wallets ladies!!! The new Lollipop Posse Lacquer collection is here and it is fabulous!! The Summer Mix Tape Collection: Overdrive Edition is a set of seven polishes that are absolutely...positively...must have polishes. Crellies and jellies and toppers and flakies and holos and multicromes and shimmers. If you want it, she's got it! Be prepared to get an ear worm or two. I've included videos to all the songs that inspired the Summer Mix Tape Collection: Overdrive Edition. Yeah, these are all songs that are sure to get stuck in your head. Good luck and enjoy!!

It's that time again!! Zoya has graced us with a new collection. I know you all were bombarded with swatches, so I'm here to give you a fresh peek at the Wanderlust Collection. This just might be my favorite collection they've put out to date. There is a wide range of colors. Some brights, some jewels, and even some earth tones. It is the perfect summer to fall transitional collection in my opinion. A great starter pack for someone who can't make up their mind. Seriously, you guys...SO GOOD! Keep reading to check these out!

You guys!!! First...happy Monday!! I know, no one really likes Mondays, but I'm really excited about my post today. Plus, my daughter is back home! The house has been full of singing since she got back yesterday. My heart is full! But, the reason you all are here...nail polish...more importantly...the return of Marbles for Polish!! She quietly left the scene for a bit, but she decided to come back with a BANG! Five gorgeous polishes with contrasting shimmers make up her Summer 2017 Collection. Oh, by the way...they're one coaters! Well, the three I get to show you today are. I can't speak for the other two. Go check 'em out!

It's Friday!! We made it!! My kid has been spending the past three weeks with my mom and I get her back tomorrow! I'm so excited to hug her and squish her to pieces! I've missed her face. In the mean time, I've got a new floral inspired trio from Cameo Colours Lacquers to show you all today. The Bloomin' Summer Trio is a set of three dreamy polishes that will make the hot summer months a bit more bearable! I can't wait to show you. Keep reading, but just a warning...you'll need these.

I've got the July Birthstone Duo from Bad Bitch Polish to show you all today!! Not only that, but make sure you are a member of Bad Bitch Polish Addicts, because I also have her newest group custom to show you and you have to be a member to buy it! And to threaten you, I have a few polishes that are no longer available so you can see what happens when you miss out on something from her. She always creates polishes that are something special. Not something to pass up on. But don't take my word for it...keep reading to find out more!

I've got a limited edition trio from Polish My Life to show you all today. These three are a perfect summer trio! Great colors that can be used year round! The polishes were inspired by the below photo...hence the name...Poolside Trio. In addition to the three polishes, she also sent me several of her hand care essentials to try out and show you all. You all are in for a treat!

I have so many things from Bohemian Polish to show you all today. First off, we have the Endless Summer Collection. It is a set of eight gorgeous, muted neons that even water marble! Each one is named for a song that should be on everyone's summer playlist. Then, I have a couple charity polishes, and several new oil scents to show you. No point in blabbing on...let's get to it...
