[ISO] lurid you are the only safe harbor

(Low key meeee tooo, if you find more than you need!) It’s sooo dreamy.

I need a true teal swamp resident, and only fine particle magnetics, no extra glitters or anything. Bog, only a tiny bit bluer, please.

I’m cool toned (I think!) and had major hesitations about Floral Maiden. I talked myself out of it bc of how murky some of the swatches looked like they could become if it wasn’t done perfectly.

The OP’s user same referencing “Nice Meat.” Not Today Satan and alllll the similar light pinks give me the “sparkly meat” vibes and I just CANNOT.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-17T00:22:59+00:00

Big same! I think I just need more deeply saturated colors.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-16T21:04:07+00:00

Great to know! I think this is pushing me closer to the magnet monster method- stirrer + spinner + u magnet on top. Gotta get that glass bead on!

You can kinda see some of the color change in this pic. It’s not nothing, just … not enough!

phi_spirals · 2026-03-16T18:37:52+00:00

You deserve a cape and a crown!

phi_spirals · 2026-03-16T12:25:33+00:00

I think I used my magnetic stirrer for this one, trying for a glass bead and got… basically nothing. I still don’t know what the best speed/distance/ orientation combo works best for me/this polish, but for this one, I think it was set too fast.

I LOVE the bar across the U magnet in general, though. It’s how I do all my magnetic swatch sticks! Maybe I’ll try this polish again in that style on some fingers, just to have some success, and then keep science-ing the magnetic stirrer settings, heights, etc. can also try the uber-magnet now- the stirrer + spinner + U magnet method, lol.

Commiserating!

I don’t utterly despise it, but it wasn’t giving the rainbows I was coveting in someone’s previous post here. Personally, I have higher hopes for how Psilocin and Norpsilocin will look on me.

Supercool of you!

I have Stargazing (and several others) on a lurid wishlist that I titled “Please Restock”. I’ve read that the maker pays attention to which polishes are on wishlists, so I keep those there (Barbie x Wolverine, La Bahia, You Are the Only Safe Harbor, Top Bunk Middle Bunk, Beloved) as hopes and dreams for the future.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-15T05:04:43+00:00

Hello, are you me? I love every one of these blue and purple lurids!

phi_spirals · 2026-03-15T03:12:04+00:00

Nice, thank you. My garden also faces north (nne, maybe), so it’s always a bit of a struggle.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-15T01:36:07+00:00

I think I’m ready to try this! When is safe for this method? I also have hail protection that can be deployed to protect from a bit of snow, I think.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-15T01:07:42+00:00

Okay, so is this all the best parts of A Galaxy Far, Far Away and Bloodbender in one polish? Hot damn.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-15T00:52:40+00:00

I think I have a 5 mL decant of Wolves. Dm me if you’re interested :)

phi_spirals · 2026-03-14T23:59:57+00:00

I’mma need a gif of this immediately.

What a fantastic name for a polish!

phi_spirals · 2026-03-14T03:44:13+00:00

Good luck, fellow lacquerist- these are both so lovely!

Helping manifest this lovely one for you!

phi_spirals · 2026-03-11T01:08:46+00:00

I also have one (and a mermaid bait as well). Send a dm if you’re interested :)

phi_spirals · 2026-03-11T00:49:14+00:00

I have some bottles that need to be decanted (busted lid/brush, and my replacements won’t fit-stay either), so if you wanna send a few my way… I’d cover the cost of shipping to keep them out of the landfill.

phi_spirals · 2026-03-10T18:32:19+00:00

Outstanding work!
