    What color, which brand if I may ask?

    I may have an absolutely unhealthy amount of nail polish. And now I’m curious which ones you like most haha.

      These are my primary ones at the moment.

      The Essie green on the left is one of my favorite colors, it’s super pretty, I think it has a top coat that sets it like a gel, but it works really well with my mini nail lamp. I like OPI because it’s pretty inexpensive and the red wine looks great on me, but the bottle is old and not easy to use anymore so I’ll probably be replacing it for the same color.

      The middle blue is Sally Hansens Miracle Gel line, it’s a base coat, color, and top coat that is supposed to set like a gel manicure. The polish itself is great when I take the time to let it set.

      The right two were a gift from a friend, they are limited edition colors. The yellow Bees Knees is called Cowabunga and it’s gorgeous. I thought it would look good as a top coat, but I wore it as a color and the chunky sparkles just shimmered in the sun, really pretty color. The green is Night Owl and the color is Turtles in a Half Shell (can you spot the theme here? 😁). It’s not as shimmery as Cowabunga, but it’s a really pretty green.

      I have a problem with green and I’ve kind of banned myself from buying more because I usually have a few shades on a daily basis lol

          Yeah, my friend got those two limited editions for me because I’m a big TMNT fan. The picture does not do justice to how gorgeous that Cowabunga color is!

          I have an unhealthy obsession with the color green lol I should just tattoo my whole body green and get it over with 🤣

              Oh my! That color is amazing and I may have to break my “no more green” promise to myself!

              I played a little with magnetic polish a long time ago but I never had good wands back then. One of these days, I’ll pick up a quality wand and try again.
