ILNP Haul!

I have five new purple and pink polishes from ILNP to share today! These beauties were my birthday gift to myself this year. I hadn't purchased from ILNP for a while, so my wishlist was building up! I have always loved ILNP's colors and formulas and these five new shades were no exception. Firs up…

ILNP Purples: “Ruby Sky”, “Hush”, “Kings & Queens”, & “Lilac Bridges”

Since I'm bored in my apartment during self-quarantine in New York, I decided to swatch some beautiful purple polishes in my personal collection from ILNP!

ILNP “Peachy Queen”

A Year in Review: My Five Favorite Polishes of 2017

In 2017, I wore 61 different manicures! In retrospect, it seems like a small number compared to the amount of bottles I BOUGHT.... Whoops. I took a nice trip down manicure lane and picked out my five favorite polishes of 2017! My number one polish this year was, hands down, Femme Fatale's "Exosphere", which was…
