I've been really excited to try this one for awhile! Mooncat My Cabbages from their Avatar collection. It's stunningly green and shiny, big green and gold flakies. I'm loving them!

Hopping on the band wagon of sharing my collection. I've been collecting since around 2011 but really started around covid. Started with bourbon and American single malt but have been gravitating more towards Scotch the last few years. Most of my bottles are open, less a handful of stock tater bottles and everyday drinkers.

Maybe not the best way to share my collection given you can only see about half of them in these photos but hopefully the ones up front are worth a glance!

Trying out Holo Taco's Picnic Party Topper for the first time and it looks amazing! Lots of fun colorful randomness!

Testing out another one from Mooncat's Deadly by Nature collection, Deadly Nightshade! Applied loose glitter with colors to match the shifty nature of the primary polish on my accent nail. The first photos are in the shade, the later are in direct sunlight. The last photo is of my accent nail with the loose glitter which I think turned out really well!

I tried out another color from my Mooncat haul this week, Jewel Beetle! It's a really cool shifty polish that changes from pinky red to green to gold depending light angles. I like to do an accent nail but had the hardest time trying to match or contrast this one. My wife came up with a great idea to burnish loose glitter (turquoise, green, and magenta) to a sticky base coat over a dark pink polish base to mimic the shifty nature of the Jewel Beetle polish. It turned out so well both of us were momentarily stunned by the sparkle! Pictures in different light levels included to try to approximate all the shades this one has.

I didn't want to decide what color to wear this week so I put on a blind fold and asked my wife to make it a mystery. She decided to go with our new Mooncat Manchineel Tree polish, a neon green with a really cool yellow/gold/orange Solar effect! She added an awesome ombre accent nail to mimic the color change effect of the rest of my nails!

The first pictures are taken in the shade, the later with UV exposure and the last photo with super exposure from a UV light on my thumb which makes the color change to a burt orange hue!

Application by my amazing supporting wife!

I was finally able to get my hands on Mooncat Death's Trumpet which always seems to be sold out (for good reason). It's a Solar Polish from Mooncat's Deadly by Nature collection which are all super cool!

I don't have a lot of pink polish experience but I'm really loving it! Death's Trumpet is UV reactive and turns a bold purple with solar/UV exposure.

Added Mooncat Maelstrom, one of my favorite green shades as an accent nail.

First pictures are with limited solar exposure, the second batch are with heavy UV. The final picture has only the thumb activated for comparison to non activated.

In honor of America's 250th birthday coming up I thought I'd get in the spirit with my nails this week! I had about 20 combinations ideas but went with this combo incorporating a cool thermal polish I got awhile from Mooncat which changes from white when warm to light blue when cold. I included pictures of the white form, half blue and full blue.

Recently got another batch of Mooncat polishes (I'm a bit obsessed as I've had gotten like 2 orders in a month) and decided on a blue/purple theme. Mooncat Werewolf's Bane is a holographic purple that I swear looked more blue when I put it on but now I can only see the purple. I paired that color with my new lilac Mooncat, Insomniac, a light purple creme polish on my ring fingers!

Included photos of both shade and sun but like most polishes, my phone camera doesn't do a good job of capturing the color I experience in person!!

I was really excited to try out Mermaid Bait from my recent Mooncat haul! It did not disappoint! Colors shift between turquoise, blue and green with a rose gold shimmer at certain angles! For science and because glow in the dark nails are awesome I added a glow in the dark base under the mermaid bait to my index and ring Fingers. The addition gives those nails a blueish tint rather than turquoise.

​

My lovely and talented wife did the application!

​

Fyi, I drew in my fingers on the glow in the dark shot so it didn't just look a pair of creepy eyes lol.

I just purchased a handful of really cool Mooncat polishes during their Memorial Day sale. Right away I had to try on 404: Soul Not Found, a crazily awesome magnetic that shifts from blue, to purple to magenta with a crazy shimmer galaxy effect when magnetized as a cat's eye! I'm very impressed and am probably going to have trouble focusing on anything but my nails for a few days. Pictures don't do the magnetization effect any justice.

Application was by my amazing and talented wife! So thankful for her!

Originally bought this polish as it kind of matched our new car! Still one of my favs! The color shifts between teal, oil slick, and purple depending on how the light hits it. First pic is up against my car (it shifts color a bit too but not as much)
