This time last year Glam Polish released their limited edition Beauty and the Beach collection. And in true fashion I bought my favorite shades the day they released.

L-R Lynnderella Connect the Dots | Glam Polish Splish Splash | Glam Polish Beauty and the Beach

I ordered 5 or 6 shades from the 12-piece set and I immediately knew the two I wanted to use were Glam Polish Splish Splash and Glam Polish Beauty and the Beach.

After a singular coat of white, I then used a makeup sponge to create the gradient from Splish Splash to Beauty and the Beach. What I learned from this? That the formula on these is almost too thin to create a buildable gradient. tthis gradient required so many layers that hese nails were already bordering on too thicc before I added the finishing touch of Lynnderella Connect the Dots.

Ultimately, I do like the look of these nails. However, if I were to do this mani again... Well, I wouldn't. Some things really are more fashionable than functional.

But at least they look good right?

How do you feel about Glam Polish? Yay or nay? Let's chat in the comments.

Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

We're cool for the summer. 😎

Today, I've got some fun neon nail art featuring the Black-owned indie brand, Tinted Paradise. 

Admittedly, these nails sat in my drafts for about a year. I've done my fair share of nail painting in my time under Big Rona, but actually editing the photos and the blog posts were another thing entirely.

To start this mani I did 2-3 coats of Sundazed. Next, I added one coat of Holographic.What I will mention about this holographic topper is how incredibly subtle it is even outside under direct sunlight.

After I laid down my base for these nails, I stamped over it using a miscellaneous white stamping polish and Maniology Teenage Dream  BM-P103 to reach the final look.

After sealing with my go-to quick dry top coat, these eye-searing nails were ready for the summer sun. And by summer sun I mean my solo & socially distant bike ride to the park.

Are you ready for neon nail season? Because y'all know I am. Let's chat in the comments.

Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.
