Whut!! *😲* An actual blog post, I know! I've said it before but just in case you are new, I'm mainly posting stuff on YouTube these days.👈 So go check that out please. I keep this blog cause I like having the pictures actually show up on Google searches, since I know that can be helpful...also cause I occasionally feel like writing.
Anyway...I made these back in October. I'm slowly swatching my Gemstone holo stamping polishes that I made for Moonflower and this was supposed to be the swatch/nail art for Oro. Point is, they are still kinda holiday/autumnal/winter transition that they work for this time of year so I figured I'd go ahead and post.
Ok so the base is Poetry Cowgirl's 525600 Minutes from August's Polish Pickup musicals theme. This polish was inspired by Rent. It's a black jelly base full of glitters and flakies and I love it. I fell in love with indie polishes because of this type of finish. This isn't going to be much of a review though, the formula and application are great and if you want to actually see it in action, which I think says more than my words ever could, just watch the video below.
Swatch is 3 coats with glossy top coat.
On to the stamping! I used Moonflower Polish Oro - a holo gold stamping polish, and Lina Nail Art Supplies Twirls and Swirls 01 plate, with Lantern and Wren's Simply Silver Clear Stamper.
You get two macros 😄...one has lint in it 😖.

Ok so Oro is still available at my shop - www.moonflowerpolish.com. It's $14 for the 15ml bottle. I know that's pricey so that's why I have a mini for $8. These are all handmade polishes, it's an artisan product, which means it costs more than mass produced polishes. It's also 5 free, which a lot of the cheap polishes from China are not (sometimes they are, but not usually), which means none of the super dangerous stuff. Plus....you help support a small business, and also a female run business, and also a mom business? I dunno. It's just me, working from home, making these with love for all of you (and me, cause I use them too, duh). Same goes for all indie polish makers.
That said, Poetry Cowgirl polishes are available in her shop www.poetrycowgirlnailpolish.com. This particular color though is from Polish Pickup. (And I highly recommend clicking on that link to learn all about it, cause it's awesome.)
