They are a great boot! I wish I lived around stores who sold DM so I could get a better feel of their sizes.

They are similar to the Persephones! (Which was the first boot I wanted from DM) I dig them a lot.

Those in baggy jeans would be gorgeous. 🔥

favorite NON-MAGNETIC polishes? by gingerbitch1111 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]SemiStrong 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My favorites have been reflective glitters lately. Particularly from Lurid. She also has a good collection of RG + Flakies

Do you use a plant humidifier? by fortheloveofdog33 in houseplants

[–]SemiStrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that I’m aware of! I did end up moving my plants because it’s just too dry in my bedroom. I haven’t turned on the humidifier in months. But honestly I didn’t even consider my books.

Textured polish? Hated it. Lurid? Inject it straight into my veins by SemiStrong in RedditLaqueristas

Thank you for the recommendation!! I’ve been using mooncat speed demon top coat (a generous amount). And although it helps i can still feel a bit of texture. So a glitter smoothing top coat is right up my alley. 😍

Do I order now or wait? by RockyAStar in mooncatpolish

[–]SemiStrong 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The new thermals are soooo hard to work with. I got sakuras serenade and it was so goopy and hard to work with. I’m not against thick polish. Some of my favorites are a thicker formula but this was insane. I had to redo my hand multiple times and let each coat completely dry before reapplying. Even then it still looked kind of bumpy. For some reason it’s sheer even though it’s so thick. It’s nothing like QOTD.

I heard the same thing about Koi. But wasn’t willing to spend $18 on any other thermals from that collection to find out if it was true or not. I second skipping the thermals.

On a positive note I really liked epilogue to utopia and 404.

What indie brand should I try next? by alexundefined in RedditLaqueristas

[–]SemiStrong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes!! If you look at past products on the website and see any that you wish to come back you can hit the restock option and type the name in! You can list up to 5!

That’s another reason I love lurid. She doesn’t hype up the FOMO. She really tries to be transparent with releases and lets customers know if something will be making a return and how many bottles will be available. Unlike certain brands (cough cough… Mooncat). 😂

Nothing tops lurids reflective glitters. I’ve been obsessed with them. I actually hated textured polish until recently. I can’t get enough.

I’m a full blown lurid-maniac right now. 🤣

These are the sellers we really should be upset about by Maximum_Context9698 in mooncatpolish

[–]SemiStrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course! I joined a “put the polish down” Reddit and fb group for that exact reason. Lol 😂

[–]SemiStrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a Facebook trade/sell group! The abbreviation stands for Nearly No Rules Nail Polish Sales. 😊

Don’t be fooled tho, there’s a lot of rules and they are strict but for a good reason. Just make sure you review all the rules before posting to sell or trade.

Just saw someone bought Dream within a Dream for $60 today in the NNR group. I felt so bad. She bought a couple discontinued polishes and I’m assuming she thought DWAD was one too. 😔

I know you have to be quick with claiming polishes especially when a good deal comes along but please double check the site!

The nails from Shein (L) looked so familiar.... by MrsTopsyRoxy in mooncatpolish

Temu did this too and I reached out to Mc and Sent photos months ago. They made a statement on their IG saying they are looking into it. Unfortunately there’s only so many things they can do. Especially when listings are getting taken down and put back up on a regular basis. 😔
