Today's polish is a no from me. The funny part is that I bought this in 2022 thinking I would wear it around Holi in 2023. Well I remembered to wear it about a week after Holi in 2023, 2024, and now 2025. 🤦‍♀️😂 But I decided this time I was going to wear it and didn't care that I was late! On paper I love this one. It's a purple jelly base with a rainbow of metallic flakes. It just seemed patchy even after three coats. I also thought the flakes would stand out from the base a little more than they did. Ohh well, at least I got it on my nails. LOL This is Festival of Colours from Paint it Pretty Polish.

Today's polish is a perfect wintery polish. Sadly there was no sun to show off just how shimmery and sparkly this one is. So instead, in the second picture, I zoomed in a little closer than I usually do so you can see the rainbow of tiny iridescent flakes that make up this polish. Seriously, click on that photo and zoom in on my ring finger. The longer you look the more colors you see. 😍🌈 I really love how this one looks and I am now officially ready for all of the winter polishes I have lined up in my untrieds.

Today's polish was nice, but not my favorite. Maybe it's because I didn't realize how similar this one was to the gorgeous Great Lakes Lacquer polish I had on a few days ago, but I found myself underwhelmed when I put this on. I did like the multichrome flakes this one has, but they're so tiny you almost can't see them. This is Metamorphosis from Sassy Sauce.

Today's polish made me so happy! 😍 This color green is my favorite and all those flakes made me feel like I had crushed emeralds on my nails. The addition of the holo glitter gave it just the right amount of sparkle. It also looked wonderful matte. The inspiration for this one is Indiana Jones, which I think fits perfectly.

Today's polish has summery oceanic vibes. Between the blue jelly base and all of the pretty iridescent flakeys and shimmer, looking at my nails made me feel like I was at the beach. It's still technically summer and I live in California so i can wear beach colors year round. Right? 😂 This is The Crab from Starrily.

Today's polish is completely unique to my collection. The base is a cool-leaning purple jelly that is packed with gold to green UP pigment as well as red to orange to green iridescent flakes. When I first applied this inside my house I thought "Ok, that's fine. Not my favorite." But once I went out into direct sunlight my mouth hit the floor. It is SO sparkly and SO shifty I couldn't get over it. I especially loved when the UP shifts to green and makes the base jelly go from purple to a blue-indigo color. I show that shift in the video so keep watching until the end of you want to see it. This is Ill Met By Moonlight from Bee's Knees Lacquer.

Today's polish is a really unique holo polish. The base is a gun metal linear holo and on top of that is a coppery shimmer, gunmetal flakes and iridescent flakes. The shimmer is seen most easily in the second picture and the flakes in the third picture. I love how it all comes together to make a polish that from a distance looks fairly neutral, but up close has all sorts of fun stuff to look at, especially in the sun. 😍 This is Booyah! from Bee's Knees Lacquer.
