Polish Pickup Slumber Party March 2024: Noodles Nail Polish Parent Trapped

 *press sample*



Hello hello! Is it just me, or did February just fly by? Just yesterday if felt like the first of the year. If you can believe it, Polish Pickup for March starts in just a few days. Tonight I've got the shade from Noodles Nail Polish to share with you. 
This month's theme is Slumber Party, and that seems fairly opened ended, and I'm interested to see how the makers use their creativity to put it to the test. What do you think of when you think of a slumber party? 

The shop officially opens at 11:00 AM ET Friday, March 1st and ends on Monday, March 4th at 11:59 PM (but if a polish has a bottle limit and sells out before the end of the pre-order, it's gone, unless you get lucky and the cap gets raised...which can happen, but you have to be in the Facebook group for the notification) on the PPU website. 







Noodles Nail Polish Parent Trapped (2 coats)
Inspiration: The “Parent Trap” scene with Meredith waking up floating in the lake on her air mattress 
Price: $12
Bottle Limit: 200 bottles


I found the source for the photo! Honestly it's been so long since I've watched The Parent Trap that I completely forgot about this scene. Leave it to Natalie come up with such a fun interpretation. Parent Trapped is a deep turquoise leaning teal jelly base with indigo/blue/green shifting flakes, teal holo glitters, and turquoise matte glitters in hexagonal and square shapes. Doesn't this one remind you a bit of a mermaid tail, just a little darker? I'm absolutely loving the combination of the square glitters and the flakes. This one does dry with texture, so I recommend a coat of a glitter-smoothing topcoat followed by a coat of quick dry topcoat for that smooth finish. It applied flawlessly in just 2 medium coats. 

 Wishlisting for Polish Pickup is going on now, so get shopping! Don't forget, this one does have a bottle limit, so if you're interested, don't wait too long to purchase. You can find out more about Noodles Nail Polish on their websiteInstagram pageFacebook page, and Facebook Fan Group

Zoya February 2024 Color of the Month: Love

*press sample*


New month, new Color of the Month polish from Zoya. February is all about love, and that goes for your nails. I wanted to get this post out as soon as possible, because these limited edition polishes from Zoya are around for approximately a month. It may be March 1st, or it could be later in the month, but none of the other COTM shades are currently available, so there's that. This month we have Love, and it retails for $12 and you can get free shipping with code LOVE24. 






Zoya Love (2 coats)

We have a glitter polish that covers in 2 coats! Love is a red jelly base with loads of various sized hexagonal red glitter. It reminds me of Dorothy's Ruby Red Slippers, don't you think? The polish applies well, and has so much glitter so you don't have to dab it on (regular strokes is fine). It does dry with texture from all the glitter, so I recommend a glitter smoothing topcoat for that smooth finish. I'm actually a big fan of this one and I've been wearing it for the past 3 days. What do you think of this month's shade? 

You can find out more about Zoya on their websiteFacebookTwitter, or Instagram pages. They often have sales, so check their social media pages periodically.

Polish Pickup February 2024 Wild Animals: Noodles Nail Polish Love Birds

 *press sample*



Hello hello! How is it almost February?! Wasn't last week Christmas? I hope you are all staying warm in your respective areas. It's been on and off cold, but nothing unbearable like much of the US had last week. Tonight I've got the Polish Pickup shade from Noodles Nail Polish to share with you. 
This month's theme is Wild Animals, and like last month, I'm also an animal lover and can't wait to see what's in store. 

The shop officially opens at 11:00 AM ET Friday, February 2nd and ends on Monday, February 5th at 11:59 PM (but if a polish has a bottle limit and sells out before the end of the pre-order, it's gone, unless you get lucky and the cap gets raised...which can happen, but you have to be in the Facebook group for the notification) on the PPU website. 








Noodles Nail Polish Love Birds (2 coats)
Inspiration: a photo of 2 love birds 
Price: $12
Bottle Limit: 250 bottles

This month Natalie was inspired by a photo of love birds (very Valentine's Day appropriate indeed!) and Love Birds is a bright pink (leaning red) crelly base with neon pink glitters, lime/gold iridescent glitters,  and purple/red/gold/orange color shifting flakes. The flakes aren't too in-your-face and adds nice visual texture to the polish. It was fairly opaque and only needed 2 regular coats for full opacity. Love Birds does dry with some texture due to the glitters and flakes, so I recommend a glitter-smoothing topcoat followed by a layer of quick-dry topcoat to get a finish like the swatches above.
