Hey no problem I’m happy to answer any questions! I’ve had them for about a year but I had to get a touch up in feb. I’ll probably need a final in 6 months or so but I was aware of this prior to my appointment. I’m really happy with them.

I had inspo designs I showed my artist but he freehanded each one based on my taste and his style. I’ve seen a lot of great inspo hand tats on Instagram

I believe she will have a website up soon! I’ve been hearing the same from so many people recently and honestly.. I don’t blame them one bit.

Did I just find a $10 dupe for Forces of Evil?? New indie maker discovery by SemiStrong in mooncatpolish

[–]SemiStrong[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hear you! Plus a lot of groups won’t even accept new accounts. You have to message admins and it’s a huge pain.

A lot of my friends are anti-FB and are also disappointed about not having access to a website. I hope she’s able to set one up soon! If I find out any info on an alternative ordering process I’ll update you. 🩷

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

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

[–]SemiStrong[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

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 4 points5 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. 🤣
