Disclosure: I am a paid employee for Polish Pickup. While this post is not sponsored by Polish Pickup, I do have a relationship with the hosting collaboration shop.
Happy Sunday! It’s wishlisting day at Polish Pickup and I have 56 of the November 2025 items to share. This month’s theme is Mood Rings & Emotions.
To check out all 56 items I received this month, check out my YouTube video below!
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used a clear latex peel off base, and for the glossy photos I did Monarch Lacquer Hi-Def Shine Top coat (sent as PR and I’ve also purchased.. and that’s an affiliate link). For all textured polishes, I did use Glisten & Glow Glitter Grabber (PR) and Monarch Lacquer top coat over it.
For my lighting setup, since I use artificial lighting due to my day job, involves 2 Neatfi XL Lamps from Amazon (affiliate link) as well as this Daylight Company Duo Daylight Lamp (affiliate link).
And lastly – I do use artificial gel nails that I do myself at home. In this post (and video) I am using Apres Gel X Nails in Extra Short Stiletto, which are clear nails. I do not use blurring base coats or anything to increase opacity of the nails – and it shows during my YouTube videos especially. With the clear nails, if you can see through the tip still – then odds are you will also see VNL through the polish I have on. If you cannot see through them, then opacity was likely reached.
For my camera, I use a Nikon z30 which is still semi new to me so some kinks are still being worked out. If I see any discrepancies in real life and my photos – I will mention it.
Okay… on with the show! Let’s take a peek at what we have this month!

KBShimmer | Fillin’ Groovy Ridge Filling Base Coat
Inspiration:
Description: First off… I know. I don’t have ridges – I have smooth af fake gel nails without a single ridge anywhere in sight.
Hear me out though. I obviously don’t wear shades like this for a ridge reduced/free look – I wear it for a sheerish wash of color that I love as a base for stamping or for water slide decals. Or if I want to wear a palate cleanser polish – this is it. It also is a good base coat whether you have ridges or not.
If you have ridges and want a nice base or palate cleanser – here you go.
About the item though – Every polish wearer needs a good base coat. Fillin’ Groovy is a base coat that acts like double-sided sticky tape. It helps to create a long-lasting bond between the nail and polish while filling ridges for smooth application. It also helps prevent staining.
