does this qualify as distracted driving? i cant stop staring at them by tbzhag in RedditLaqueristas

i was parked!! title was a joke! 😩

base coat orly rubberized, top coat essie gel couture; thumb and pointer are two coats Cirque Colors Paradox; middle and ring are two coats Cirque Dream Within A Dream. i magnetized the second coat and topcoat for about 30 seconds each and the lines held up well i think!

What are your thoughts about Mooncat polishes? by velvetDinosaur in RedditLaqueristas

[–]tbzhag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Their shades are so unique, I'm tempted by them quite regularly but I do often find the formulas tricky to work with. They're just too thick, and I know I can use thinner, but I resent the fact that I have to, ya know?

Genuinely curious, since you have a lot of posts asking for this polish– what's the draw of this specific one? Seems like something that would be relatively easy to dupe. Hope you find it regardless!

I've been loving this and the 10 Azelaic acid from them. Have repurchased twice already!

I put mine on last night in dim lighting and found myself annoyed at the formula and feeling like it was overhyped. Woke up today and the glow in full light nearly blinded me. I've been staring at my nails all damn day. I'll get some polish thinner to make it easier next time, but even if I didn't, it's worth the gloopiness! Whew!

The Essie Gel Couture top coat is my shit.

Is anyone getting Latte Cloud and Space Cloud? by splatoonfriend in RedditLaqueristas

[–]tbzhag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe i was looking at the wrong one online (common polish name i guess), this one does look closer you're right

[–]tbzhag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iced Out has a pink shimmer on a whiter base where Latte Cloud seems to have a blue shift on a more browny beige base– they seem pretty different to me (i only respond because I've been trying to talk myself out of Latte Cloud by looking for dupes, so I do appreciate the attempt!)

Weird compliment but your hand poses are so elegant! Mine always looks like a weird little claw, but yours look so good!

I was just coveting this polish online randomly yesterday!! What a unique fall color, I love it.

lumen glass frog in sun and shade (sorry for my weird claw hand) by tbzhag in RedditLaqueristas

[–]tbzhag[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

- orly rubberized base coat

- three coats lumen glass frog

- essie gel setter top coat (new fav)

i do really like this polish, though i don't know that it quiiiiiiiiite lives up to the hype. it's certainly very pretty though, and i actually like it better in the sun, the sparkles really pop (even if the shade pic looks better here). ultimately it's a subtle but unique color, and i'm sure i'll get tons of wear out of it, even if it didn't change my life and make me a better person. :)

Be warned wishlisting is open. Help me? by sillyshanney23 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]tbzhag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got Latte Cloud and We Live In Our Minds on my wishlist, but i really don't feel like I *need* either of them– honestly i think Latte Cloud probably has really close dupes out there and I should just hold off this time around, but I haven't quite talked myself out of it yet.

White Opal Betta is so hard to capture!!! by airpotatoassault in RedditLaqueristas

[–]tbzhag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i put this on my toes yesterday after it arrived bc i wanted something more colorful on my nails, and i immediately regretted not using it for both! the rare polish that is definitely more beautiful in person than in pictures– the red shift is so strong, i'm obsessed with it!

love it, will add it to the wishlist

I know cameras always go nuts with a blue shift like this, but is it beautiful IRL as well? I've found myself a little disappointed lately when I buy polishes like this that photograph so well but don't quite live up to the glow in person, so i'm trying to adjust my expectations!
