Fancy Gloss 'Pocketful of Pansies' (Thermal)

A couple of weeks ago I placed a small order with Fancy Gloss, a US indie polish brand known for their amazing thermals and formula. They have monthly restocks and new releases and there was a sale on so I had to nab some polishes I had been eyeing for a while.

I picked up 3 thermals; images here are swatches from Jackie, Fancy Gloss' owner & creator. They were what was used on the website listing.

Today I have some pictures of A Pocketful of Pansies with some nail art! This polish is sooo beautifully squishy, and I used just 2 thin coats in these photos. You do have to work fast as the polish dries quickly to get a smooth, even coat. No overworking here!

SWATCH - SM Polish (Part 2 of 2)

Today I bring to you the second half of my SM Polish Haul. If you missed Part 1 (where I spoke about the polish formulas in general), you can find it here. Shopping links will be at the bottom, like before. I've also started adding watermarks to my images so I can have them nice and large without fear of them being stolen. I think it's fairly subtle, anyway.

I will be showing you Envious, Violetta (with nail art), The Emperor's New Clothes, and I Blue Up the Dance Floor in this half. I didn't get to doing photos of Pink Fizz as I'm midst Fibro flare-up, and I wanted to have this up as I've taken long enough. I might add it retrospectively. Anyway, let's get on with it!

SWATCH - SM Polish (Part 1 of 2)

Today I have my very first order from SM Polish to share with you! I ordered 7 polishes (pictured below) and was sent 2 mini bottles with it. I am going to split this swatch / review into 2 posts because of how many pictures I have.

Hi everyone!
