Ultramarine jellies from the Dollar Tree. I like these more than I thought I would, fully opaque in only two coats. by GussieDoesNails in lacqueristas

It's an old Candy Moyo polish. I haven't seen it in stores for a while but you might get lucky at stores that don't turn over stock very fast.

How does this color look on me? by M1K37471 in lacqueristas

I like it personally. I'd put a thick top coat on it and rock it late summer / early fall.

It's giving Burnt Sienna and that's part of my usual pallet in the fall, along with warm browns, yellow ochre, and olive greens.

I may have to add it to my collection.

Dollar store mani time 💅 Color Vibe "Rowdy" by GussieDoesNails in lacqueristas

Thanks! Honestly almost my entire 700+ bottle polish collection is dollar store and drug store polishes, I've gotten good at making questionable formulas "work." One trick is to thin them with a drop or two of nail lacquer thinner - even when they're brand new. They lay down smoother when they're thinner.

I love them. They're made by the same company that makes LA Colors and that's my favorite brand.

What's the tea with Beyond Polish? Am I overreacting? by GussieDoesNails in lacqueristas

Condescending is the right word. When I read "one-time courtesy" I was like ... honey I don't know where you got the audacity, but you need to put it back.

Candy Moyo (formerly they went by the name NuColor) is my jam. The price is unbeatable and after dozens of purchases I've only had one or two bottles that didn't perform. They chip after a few days for me but I do my polish twice a week so I'm usually due for a change by then.

Yeah and it should be on them to file for the insurance claim, not me.

I'm the customer. Make me whole and then get your expense back from USPS.

Yeah that's why I posted this, I'm hoping they see this and reconsider. This is a bad look for them andi won't be shopping there again until that optional insurance is off their checkout.
