First polish from Bee’s Knees Lacquer and it’s extremely my shit. This is “Dark Justiciar”, made in honor of BG3, a fantastic game that I did not play.

Emily de Molly “Praying For Change”. It’s a beautiful color that unfortunately I don’t like at all on my skin tone.

Easter nails! Cracked “Frolicking In The Fields” over “Dark Like My Heart”. I don’t love how this turned out and for the effort wish I’d just done “Lahar” instead.

Pale hand with fingernails painted lavender.
Uno Mas “Escape Goat” from last week. Didn’t enjoy this one as much as I expected to, I think because I just don’t spend enough time in the sun to see the UV shift. Also had cracking with the top coat.

Mooncat’s “Twilight Sonata”. This one desperately needs thinner because since last year it’s taken on the consistency of brownie batter

A couple friends of mine have gotten me into indie nail polish. The colors are so cool. (ꈍ◡ꈍ)

Emily de Molly “Distance to the Sun”. I’m discovering thermals are my favorite polishes and much like the last EdM I tried, this one is incredible.

February nails! Documenting my weekly manis as a reminder that we already have polish at home. The magnetics are of course my favorite, but at almost two hours I just can't do it every week. 💅 #nailpolish #indienailpolish #lacquerista
Pale hand with dark purplish painted fingernails. They’re mid length and pointed.
Two pale hands with fingernails painted dark purplish. One hand has mid length pointed nails, and it’s holding the second hand, with shorter fingernails. Despite being roughly the same skin tone, these hands belong to two distinct individuals.
Frustrated with my inability to photograph this color accurately. “Wicked Sorcery” by Sassy Sauce—and why did I do a better job magnetizing @music2000.bsky.social’s nails than my own??

Over a background of black and white checkerboard design, two dozen swatch sticks lay fanned out around their binding ring. Every color of the rainbow is swatched in nail polish, and they each are labeled with their names, which are cities across the globe.
New ring of swatch sticks headed to MadeHere along with a refreshed selection for #2026 🎁
Have you visited this shop in Portland, Oregon? It's packed with local makers' wares and conveniently located across from Powells bookstore!

I am going to try a different camera angel next that will hopefully work better
I also can not decide if I think the video is a little overexposed or not so I might work on the video lighting a little more.

Revisiting this one with a different nail shape and I like it better. However, I’ve also realized in the interim that I don’t like cremes. The application has to be perfect, and they’re just kinda boring!

I am OBSESSED with Emily de Molly’s “Ghostly Apparition”. It was a Christmas gift and my first from EdM, but will definitely not be my last. Absolutely gorgeous tri-thermal.

Okay yeah this thermal polish is way more interesting now that it’s 20°F.

Cracked “SNAP Back” is a really dynamic polish. Looks purple at a glance but is actually royal blue + copper.

I'm holding my solar reactive nail polish Kinshasa and my nails are facing the camera. They're purple on one side fading to sky blue like the DRC flag on the other. Cascading down from the top of the nails are holographic square glitters in whimsical lines like icicles.
Happy birthday @lacquerlove75.bsky.social ! 🎂 For the #☕️dayBday collab on IG I wore #VoyagetoKinshasa accented with a #Rimmel square holo glitter reminiscent of your diamond art projects 😊 Hope you have a wonderful day!

Monique at Cracked also has the only take on “Cloud Dancer” worth anything, imo. A riff on Pantone’s color of the year but actually interesting.

A white hand in a black knit sleeve. The focus is on the nails that are painting a black jelly with rainbow flake glitters throughout.
I’m hoping to get some nail art and Valentines art done soon, if energy and pain levels allow. 💖
Wearing Tyler’s Trinkets Flake It ‘Til You Make It because my mood is dark but I want pretty shinys to make me happy. ✨

I'm holding my fingertips to the camera and they are painted in plum pink, cornflower blue, chartreuse green, and pumpkin orange sheer glitter crelly nail polish. Next to my knuckles is the year 2026 in pink.
Happy New Year! 🥳 My new year's resolution is to create at least 2 collections for 2026 to make up for those that were retired over the past year of supply challenges. Here's some prototypes I've been playing with. What would you like to see added to my shop?

Pale hand with fingernails painted whiteish with snowflake glitter.
Fauve’s Frostbite. Ngl I’m not seeing a ton of the thermal shift unless I put my nails directly in ice water, but that also might be the fact that it’s 70°F outside
