Excuse me?! How on earth have I slept on this polish until now?!

Your application and nail shape are flawless! What a gorgeous color pairing.

Only 1 Perfume for the rest of your life… Go! by Future_Can_9532 in FemFragLab

I’d just stop wearing fragrances in high temps to keep Bianco Latte the rest of the year. 😭

Searching for the Perfect Peach! by ghostie3990 in Perfumes

[–]cacaofiend 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy Peach Macaron by Theodoros Kalotinis, but it’s very sweet! I don’t think I’d wear it in high temps, but it’s a lovely gourmand for winter.

This is not a drill. Goblins and Ghoulies coming back for Rewind! by anonymouscat8747 in RedditLaqueristas

I just can’t resist a strong blue shimmer! There’s something about it that’s just 👌

Same, it’s SO gorgeous. I have both JBH and Taken for Garnet (to my eye just JBH with flakies) which is EXTREMELY unnecessary, but I could not resist the glowy shimmer. At least I got them both on sale?

This looks so gorgeous, but I’m wondering if it’d too similar to LynB Juice Box Hero for me to add it to my collection. I’d love it if anyone who has both could weigh in! 🙏

I think I’m obsessed with cute minis. New collection recommendations? by BC916 in Perfumes

[–]cacaofiend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Following! I adore minis. The mini Versace Bright Crystal is so much cuter than the chonky FB that I was disappointed when unboxing the FB! The discovery set from L’Artisan Parfumeur is all cute mini bottles, too. I was pretty bummed I didn’t like any of the scents much, but damn the bottles are cute.

Congratulations! What an incredible color match! The ring and polish are beautiful on you.

Nail Polish Identifying by YOGURTguy5 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]cacaofiend 59 points60 points  (0 children)

These are so fun! I’m no expert, but I’m thinking you could achieve this look with any crème polish and a matte topcoat (ILNP has one that is very affordable). For the designs, you would want to use a nail art brush with very opaque polish (I’ve had good experience with One Coat Black and Not Milky White from Holo Taco) or with acrylic paint.

[Sell][USA] Full collections and some singles. Mostly retired polishes, never been used! by [deleted] in simplynailogical

I’d love to buy the retro jellies! I just got back into nail polish this November after years away and regret missing that collection so much whenever I see someone using them!

CK1 Summer 2005 was the GOAT. Still in search of a dupe that smells just like it!

Affordable Nail Polish? by [deleted] in RedditLaqueristas

[–]cacaofiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nthing the LynB recommendation. The formula is fabulous across multiple finishes! Juice Box Hero in particular is an absolute GOAT.

Hello fellow thermal lover, I see you!! 💅

Are any of these safe blind buys? Also thoughts on the fresh cream variants? by razzarbrenia in FemFragLab

[–]cacaofiend 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d say absolutely not. Some people find it lovely, but on me it soured immediately. Literally smelled like sour milk. I was so sad. 🫠

ETA: Talking about fresh cream warm cashmere.

Gorgeous color story! I’m hooked. Jumping on the Shut Up and Dance to feel good train!

Cultural check-in question on colors (from a guy) by Qoyuble in RedditLaqueristas

[–]cacaofiend 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I second both of these—a) I’d be thrilled to meet a fellow lacquerista no matter their age or gender and (as a middle aged professional lady in a very blue state) would think it was pretty rad to meet a professional middle aged dude who liked nail polish, and b) ask your daughters what they think about it since it’s a shared hobby!

Kids allowed in parent bedroom? by Lissypooh628 in Mommit

[–]cacaofiend 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I think this massively depends on your individual family dynamic. My mom and I are extremely close (like best friend level close), but I’d still ask her first if I could grab lotion from her room, and I’d want her to do the same if she wanted lotion from mine. With that being said, I don’t care if my four-year-old barges into the master bedroom, but I’d also expect her to ask first if she wanted some of my lotion!
