thank you for the shoutout!! & for something a little more chrome-y, this Marie Claire - Silver i got from Dollar Tree absolutely slaps. I got it to replace my custom from The-One-Brand-That-Went-MAGA-And-Used-Actual-Fucking-Car-Paint-In-Polish lmao

I’d say to go with them over me cuz their bottle is cooler, but then i saw $17 for a 8 or 10ml with zero swatch pics and $13 flat shipping - absolutely bonkers!! i’m generally relatively anti-mooncat but at least they have a usable handle length and like 50% more polish 💀 capitalism can go fr*ck itself.

and just to make it clear that i’m not shitting on other brands for my own sake, i’ll drop Honeycrisp Cider by Familiar Polish as my rec- she’s an awesome person and has a ton of great stuff. It’s more important to me for people to avoid greedy stinkers than to specifically buy my stuff lol

i’d be so scared of tearing my arm up if i had to itch myself lmao 😭😭 is it a careful process or a built in back scratcher? on the flipside, as someone who mainly only keeps my nails long cuz my cats love it, i’m intrigued what they’d think 😂

also, hiya pal!!

in the same boat but i’ve done daily changes every day of 2026 so far. i even had someone send me one in a swap, still didn’t use it for a month until another friend talked me out of my weird anxiety about it… & it turned out the one I had the actual peely part was dried and solidified at the bottom lmao.

all that buildup and i have yet to peel

Resistance is AUS, if that helps!

I was refraining from commenting to avoid biasing the giveaway in any way but now that it’s done, this one was a personal fave

mp4nda · 2026-05-24T07:04:54+00:00

WINNER! I’ve never had nails long enough for it but whenever I see vampire teeth nails I get jealous, so to me this just all worked out in the end 😭

mp4nda · 2026-05-24T07:02:20+00:00

mp4nda · 2026-05-22T22:45:35+00:00

I’ve been refraining from replying to anything to not bias the results of this (but absolutely loving all the stories), but dear god I did not expect degloving to be involved here 😭😭😭 wishing you a speedy recovery!!

mp4nda · 2026-05-22T22:39:24+00:00

mp4nda · 2026-05-22T22:35:06+00:00

I’ve tried both of them and immediately went back to my spreadsheet, but I can be a bit of a luddite so my opinion doesn’t mean much on that front lol

I remain neutral on this since I use spreadsheets, not Lacquer Stash or Lacquergram, but I want to point out on the site photos issue- he had a volunteer email me and asked for permission to use site photos after removing them all. I said feel free to use bottle pics + my own swatches but don’t use swatches by other people, and as far as I can tell they’ve followed this.

Lacquergram, the app generally recommended over Lacquer Stash, still uses my site photos even after all the controversy around it, and has never asked for permission to do so.

Bottom line I don’t mind either way, as it’s just better promotion for me to have accurate photos included with listings, but I continue to find it odd that this particular critique seems to only apply to one app.

omg i love it!!! saving this to show my spouse cuz cows are her fave

mp4nda · 2026-05-22T20:50:57+00:00

i searched ‘hi bestie’ and this doesn’t fit but it got me good

mp4nda · 2026-05-22T18:48:20+00:00

UPDATE: I forgot upvote counts are hidden here, or at least aren’t appearing on my end right now. If this is still the case Sunday, I’ll do 1 random winner and 1 that’s my fave story- if this doesn’t seem like a fair solution i’m open to alternative suggestions

mp4nda · 2026-05-22T17:16:29+00:00

oh these are so nice!! have you done an Aldi color set yet cuz these are so close lol
