I Feel Pine

Purple magnetic polish with green, pink and gold shimmer once magnet is applied

Oh hey there science polish, I see you! (I call polishes that change due to temperature, light, and magnets science polishes - I LOVE science polishes!) This looks fairly unassuming in the bottle, and then you apply the magnet and BAM! Gorgeous. Sorry for the abundance of photos, but I needed them all to show all the different looks from this single polish.

Opacity scale (1-5): 3

Finish: Magnetic, 2 coats to be opaque




Under Cover

Medium fuchsia linear holo

This beautiful berry shaded holo is perfect to finish off your NYE look with a little edge!

Opacity scale (1-5): 3

Finish: Holographic, 2 coats to be opaque






Everyday I'm Shovelin'

Glowy sky blue shimmer with reflects of pink, purple, gold and gold flakes

Seriously so glowy! It truly looks like it is lit from within and totally different from every angle! I makes me think of icicles and frosty windows. I absolutely love this one - it's one of my favorites of the entire collection!

Opacity scale (1-5): 3

Finish: Shimmer, 2 coats to be opaque




All Downhill From Here

Royal blue shimmer with aqua and deep purple reflects, and scattered holo

This one is mermaidy AF. I love the aqua reflect (the strongest), it's such a vibrant color!

Opacity scale (1-5): 3

Finish: Shimmer, 2 coats to be opaque








Living the Hygge Life

Vibrant green polish with copper, green, and gold reflects. Subtle scattered holo

Hygge is 100% the most fun word to say. lol HOO-GAH! Hygge is a Danish word that conveys coziness and comfort! I totally think that is exemplified in the warmth of this polish - the gorgeous coppery red shimmer is awesome against the vibrant green! This is another one that is hard to capture in a photo, so you get lots of photos!

Opacity scale (1-5): 2.5

Finish: Shimmer, 2-3 coats to be opaque





Under Pressure

Foiled silver holo

This polish SCREAMS icy winter! It's a super foily silver with holo that sparks beautifully when the light hits it right!

Opacity scale (1-5): 2.5

Finish: Foiled holo, 2-3 coats to be opaque





License to Chill

Milky white crelly with opalescent flakes

OOOH, sweet opal-y goodness! This polish beautiful, my only complaint is that I wish it were a bit smoother, otherwise - gorgeous!! I love the opal-inspired flakes in it - they shine differently from each direction the light hits them, and wow!

Opacity scale (1-5): 2

Finish: Crelly Flakie, 3+ coats to be opaque






Stay Toasty My Friends

Rose metallic with golden and green shift and subtle holo flakes

This shade shifts like flames licking in the fireplace, just ready to toast Santa's ass when he comes down the chimney - it's definitely different than the rest of the collection in it's warmness, but I actually like that - it offers a break from the cooler shades, but still stays tied in because of the copper shift that can be found in some of the other polishes.

Opacity scale (1-5): 2

Finish: Metallic, 2-3 coats to be opaque





I'm sMitten

A delicate lilac shimmer with flakes of shimmer that shift green, copper, and gold

This is my favorite polish of the whole collection! You could say that 'I'm sMitten'! HAHA I love the shimmer, I love the pale simplicity of the base, it's just so damn pretty! It's such a nice twist on a 'white' polish, and it's absolutely gorgeous.

Opacity scale (1-5): 2

Finish: Shimmer, 2-3 coats to be opaque


OK, so now that you've seen them all, are you ready to proclaim a snow day (regardless of weather) to stay at home and polish your nails all day? I know I am, and I live in Vegas, the land of little snow... My favorites of the entire collection are I'm sMitten, License to Chill, and Everyday I'm Shovelin'. I Feel Pine and Living the Hygge Life are close runners up though!!
