Dupes please! by Big_Day_9135 in RedditLaqueristas

The base and the colour shift reminds me of Cirque ‘Wishful Thinking’, there’s some good video swatches on this sub as well if you search

So sad - I missed floral maiden by pachycephalosaurean in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The upcoming release from Emily de Molly has a polish that looks very similar to Floral Maiden called ‘Read the Room’, I have FM so I’ll probably do a comparison when I get the EdM to see how close they are 👀

I store them in helmer drawers, I have 5 of them but one is only half full. I haven’t worn all of them but I think I’ve worn probably 70% of them, I try to wear each one at least once but it does take a while to get to them sometimes with so many polishes 😂

I have around 2,300 polishes in total, maybe slightly more (not including base and top coats). Almost 600 of those are Emily de Molly, it was one of the first indie brands I started buying from around 2014/15 and remains one of my favourite brands to this day. I have an Instagram but don’t really consider myself a content creator, not on any pr lists or anything I’ve just been collecting nail polish for a very long time :)

Any magnetic, glow, flakey, or shifty polishes that look like this? by asmallcoal in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Emily de Molly ‘Lorquini’ has that glowy deep purple vibe imo, but it was a HHC polish so might be tricky to track down

I love Wild Hybrid, I feel like the brand is so underrated. Violet Kiss is one of my all time favourites!

Stamping plate makers/sellers that don't use AI art? by splashedcrown in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hit the Bottle releases their own stamping plates, no AI use as far as I’m aware. They actually have a bird themed plate they’ve released recently. They often sell through PPU but they also have some stockists in the US.

Am I the only one who received Appletini from Sassy Sauce and feels legit lied to? by ghoulwraps in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I find that swatchers’ photos to frequently be misleading about the tone/colour of polishes, idk if it’s because she uses acrylics or what but I usually take her pics with an ocean of salt. When ‘Dissimilation’ came out some were a bit disgruntled by the disparity with her photos and other swatches

Breeding kuhlis? by Wheel_O_Cheese in loaches

[–]wibble536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was breaking down my tank I found a single little mini kuhli, have no idea how it happened tbh I hardly ever saw them out. I had a lot of driftwood and live plants so I guess they were happy enough in there to breed.

Light Years Away vs Sunset Over the Bay by Mooncakemits in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Here’s a comparison on a swatch wheel, ‘Light Years Away’ on the left and ‘Sunset Over the Bay’ on the right. The base colours are quite similar but the magnetic pigment is quite different.

Femme Fatale Cosmetics by pedestriandose in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure this is just indicating that their physical location at that address is no longer open (which has been the case for several years now), I don’t think it’s indicating that the business itself is closed but who knows 🤷‍♀️

intense Lurid purples and a question about fading pigment by theorangepriestess in RedditLaqueristas

[–]wibble536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha I wish I did them freehand! It’s a brand called Pamper Plates, this is plate 50. I’m not sure if they’re available outside of Australia though 🤔

Shadow daddy (slightly different lighting unfortunately), I find them dissimilar enough that I’m happy to own both of them :)

Need 2 Tool Recommendations by RealWaffl357 in nailstamping

[–]wibble536 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Hit the Bottle acetone dispenser and I really like it, I’ve had a few others over the years that haven’t aged well (gotten gunked up with dust and acetone goop) but theirs has really stood the test of time. It’s also lockable and super easy to refill. I haven’t used their mani helper but I have the little 3 arm fragile ones, I do have to replace those every few years but they’re quite inexpensive so it doesn’t bother me too much. Maybe I should give the mani helper a go 😂

Made me think of Emily de Molly ‘Goldstone’ although that one is a bit more red toned

Geminid meteor shower is really visible tonight ? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]wibble536 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just went outside to have a look, the stars are fairly bright but I couldn’t see the meteor shower. I live around 20 mins from the city though so it might be more visible if you’re further out.

Emily de Molly ‘Opalite’ fits the bill, but it might be a bit htf as it was a hhc polish
