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!

Little Black Dress Nail Lacquer House of Neptune Collection Swatch and Review
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!!

Bad Bitch Polish Early September 2017 Releases Swatch and Review
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!

Different Dimensions Someday We'll All Be Memories Too Collection Swatch and Review
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!

Anchor & Heart Polish June, July, and August Message in a Bottle Polishes Swatch and Review
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!
