I've been keeping an eye on Cosmic Auria's site since they told me Suzie, Prism Polish's maker was taking it over. I noticed today there's a link to the new site up now, w00t!

📣 THEY SELL BULK THINNER!! 📣 And it's the optimal ethyl acetate/butyl acetate only thinner.

I've never been this excited about chemicals before. They also have bulk QDTC, base coat etc.

I'm not affiliated with them, I'm just super hyped about the bulk thinner 😅 Please share the link far and wide!

I've got an eclipse beach picnic later so, obvs, ILNP's Eclipse.

Although we're losing up to 95% of the sun's rays here in the UK, I figured I'd catch as many as possible of them with some holo.

2x coats ILNP Eclipse
1x Avon Matte top coat to help with chrome isolation
Stamped with an unnamed Saviland green-gold polish using Moyou Illusion Collection 01 plate, Sally Hansen holo chrome powder immediately rubbed onto stamped polish with fingertip
1x coat DIY peel off base (50/50 clear glue and isopropyl alcohol) to protect the chrome from QDTC
1x coat Seche Vite QDTC

Anyone else prepped their nails for today's terrifying sun disappearance?

I was looking for nail polish. Apparently her(?) buyers can customise nail colour 😆

Thumb: 1 coat cheap gold metallic, 1 coat gold scattered holo topper with pinch of gold holo shards, QDTC
Index finger: 1 coat crushed silver holo, 1 coat blue/purple/pink iridescent flake topper, 1 coat crushed silver holo with pinch of silver holo shards, QDTC
Middle finger: 1 coat black creme, 1 coat scattered holo topper, 1 coat mixed colour reflective topper, QDTC mixed with dot of black creme (probably needed lil more black creme)
Ring finger: 1 coat cheap red metallic, QDTC
Pinky: 1 coat gold metallic, QDTC

Featuring my ✨deluxe✨ edition Uno set (it has a metal tin 💅)

Mani for my local Pride march tomorrow in a town where the Pride flag was vandalised and torn off the council's flagpole 😬

Finally came up with a pan mani I'm happy with! Blacklight reactive 🤩

Layers:
1x Leighton Denny base coat
1x China Glaze Blanc Out
1x Make Up Gallery Silver Treasure (holo glitter topper)
Pink/yellow/blue self-mixed jellies (drugstore topcoat and alcohol inks) in 1 layer
1x DIY peel-off base coat (50/50 mix of clear glue and isopropyl alcohol) as anti-smudge coat
1x Seche Vite

I just inherited my mother's ancient pinking shears, so made some holo decals and chopped them up. It's a dark, rainy day today (yay UK summertime) so couldn't manage to photograph any of my planned extra holo rainbows.

1x coat Leighton Denny basecoat
2x Glisten & Glow Fairy's Tryst
Decals made with self-mixed holos except the purple, which is Prism Polish's Grape Crush, pressed into Fairy's Tryst while still tacky
2x coats Seche Vite.

Using Moyou plates Mix & Match -04 and Paradise Collection -06, and a Temu plate named NSP005 for the righthand thumbnail. Not gonna admit how long this took me 😅

I found out last night that crackles can be tinted with alcohol inks. These were all old lumpy silver or white crackles, the inks seemed to make them more liquid and workable, too. Sponged ombres worked as well but I'd sponged over black, which washed the colours out, too lazy to replicate over white 😅

I was planning some complicated clown/circus nail art but this topper was way easier.
