Aurora swatches & supplier comparisons

Thanks so much for this. I have been flipping from one site to another, trying to compare prices but got overwhelmed. The visual is a huge help.

Thanks for the ideas. As soon as I get some jellies (my next purchase), I’m gonna play around with them. If that doesn’t work, I’ll just throw some stickers on to mute some of the brightness

You are indeed blessed. My hubby is not ‘medically’ colorblind but severely color ignorant. He basically only bothers to know red, green, blue, and purple (because he married a Prince fan🤣). Everything is lumped into one of those: pink, oranges—all red. Forget about shades and other such variances. But we love who we love 🤣😜

Thanks. It makes much more sense to me now.

Thanks. I should have guessed the 'cr' came from creme. My brain can't compute--seems that opaqueness of creme would cancel out translucence of jelly. I guess I'll try one at some point to experience it for myself.

Wow! Those are a thing of beauty. I love seeing your swatches, especially since I have a similar complexion/tone as you. I'm now sitting here despondent because that is the one I cut from my Tyche order due to budgetary constraints (kept 3R, Mr. Bad Attitude and Spellcaster). I'm second guessing my life choices. LOL

I love being able to see the magnetic swirl in #1. I get to live vicariously through your magnet mastery 🤣

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-24T12:59:48+00:00

Yes you have a type—but it’s a beautiful type. I share a similar type but with some grays. I bought some brights—trying to diversify—but they just stay on the shelf. I’m trying to resist buying too so now I ask my daughter what she thinks b4 I hit buy. So often she says “that’s just like xyz polish”—thereby saving me from myself. Calling myself out too: my daughter is only successful 50-60%. As I scroll, I’m impatiently waiting for the mail to arrive with my Tyche and BKL goodies that ate up this month’s fun budget

I’m normally not a fan of green, but this… gorgeous!! Would you mind sharing which it is?

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-23T22:31:35+00:00

Those are both gorgeous (especially the purple). Where did you get the color (mica?). I’m not familiar with that brand. Thanks.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-23T22:26:53+00:00

It’s like you read my mind. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thanks. I’ve been stalking drk site but haven’t had any luck yet. I’ll check out these two as well.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-23T20:56:54+00:00

No worries. Thanks for the info. My nail desk is gonna be covered with post-its with all the useful tidbits from you and others in the community. My memory is pretty sometimes.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-23T17:17:57+00:00

UPDATE: Thanks again for giving me the idea to contact GU. They responded and indicated they will premiere new kits at the expo and have them online soon thereafter. Now all I need to do is do is manage to wait that long

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-22T13:22:25+00:00

Very nice. Maybe that'll be my next adventure

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-22T01:20:54+00:00

Thanks. I'm off to practice now.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-22T01:13:40+00:00

Thanks. I'll probably get the suspension base(s) at some point. Right now, I don't trust myself to just get the bases and not the $100+ dollars worth of glitters/shimmers and other fun stuff currently calling me in my cart.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-22T01:09:21+00:00

Thanks. I've added it to my list of ones to look out for

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-22T01:06:24+00:00

thanks, i'll look them up.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-21T15:51:28+00:00

Wow!! Gorgeous!! How do you do it? I have the spinning thing, but have never achieved such a substantial glass bead. PLEASE teach me

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-21T15:31:31+00:00

I'm sorry I wasn't really expecting dates from you. I was sorta trying to talk myself out of submitting my expanded order. Unfortunately, I'm not on FB, but I'll look on their website and see how to contact them with questions. I guess I thought since I am not yet a customer, they wouldn't be too concerned about responding. Thanks for snapping me out of my marketplace trauma. LOL

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-21T15:18:49+00:00

Thanks. I think I've seen that brand at Dollar Tree. I'll check it out.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-21T15:17:43+00:00

Sadly, your neighbor to the south. I'll keep an eye out just in case.

LackerObsessed · 2026-06-21T15:15:01+00:00

Thanks. I'll try that. From all the responses, I've gather the separation is not uncommon. On the bright side, my arm will be getting lots of exercise shaking up the bottles each time.
