Serum No 5 | Talk Dirty To Me Collection & Lunar New Year Polish

Press Sample of the Serum No 5Talk Dirty To Me Collection & Lunar New Year Polish Happy Sunday! I’m typing up a post real quick before my son and I head out to the movies! Today we’re looking at the Serum No 5 Talk Dirty To Me Collection & Lunar New Year Polish! The Serum No 5 Talk Dirty To Me Collection consists of 6 glow in the dark shades that are based on conversation hearts candy, but with a bolder kick to them, and the topper is inspired by the writing on the candies. Plus we have a bonus color made for Lunar New Year. I also did some nail art! I bought a plate specifically for Valentine’s Day and it had conversation hearts on it, so I’ll have that art at the end of the post. Ready to take a look? We’ll check out the Lunar New Year…

Serum No 5 Love In Paris Collection

Press Sample of Serum No 5 Love In Paris Collection Hello again! I have a lot of catching up to do (I know, I know…) and tonight I’m sharing the Serum No 5 Love In Paris collection! I am so excited to see more Serum No 5 coming out because no one does a glow in the dark like her! Not only do they glow, but she has an assortment of glow colors – so it’s not just the typical green. This is the Serum No 5 Love In Paris Collection and is inspired by Paris! I was fairly limited on “dark spaces” to take glow in the dark photos, but I did the best I could. Some light was slinking in, so some of the glow shades are a little off in photos. The correct glow color is mentioned in the descriptions. Let’s take a look! France With Benefits France…

Serum No 5 FW17 Collection

Press Sample I have a really fun collection to share with you this morning! This one needed some good timing to complete, but I did it! Here is the Serum No 5 FW17 Collection! So why did it need some good timing? Well because it’s a glow in the dark collection, but it also has 3 polishes that are thermals as well. So my body temp needed to cooperate AND it had to be at night to get the glow in the dark shots. Serum No 5 is still one of the best glow in the dark brands out there, and I’m so happy to see her still creating these collections. Side note, because I don’t wear these polishes for swatching long enough to get the glow in the dark to “naturally charge” I use a small led flashlight before photos. While trying to “charge” the glow for photos Nick was…

Serum No 5 Empowered Collection

Press Sample I have quite the little collection to share with you today! Serum No 5 is back and she’s back with a bang. If you are familiar with the brand, she’s mostly known for her glow in the dark polishes. Not just the typical green glow in the dark either! She has an assortment of glowy shades. Not only is the Serum No 5 Empowered Collection a glow in the dark set… they are also thermal! So you get a day and night surprise with these shades. Serum No 5 took a little time away to reflect, recharge and revamp, and I’m happy to see her back in action. This collection did test me a bit. When she asked if I had time, of course I said yes, and I loved the idea of glow in the dark, thermal polishes. However, I didn’t anticipate it hitting high 90’s to…

Serum No 5 Lucky Colors of the Chinese Zodiac Collection

Press Sample I have some newer goodies from Serum No 5 to share with you! This is the Serum No 5 Lucky Colors of the Chinese Zodiac Collection It’s been a little bit since she’s been on my blog. Not familiar with the brand? Usually she’s pumping out glow in the dark polishes with various glow colors (violet, aqua, green, yellow, pink… even white!) Really nice glows, and it became almost a signature polish for her. In August of 2015 A Box, Indied (remember that one?) featured The Backwards Box which prompted makers to create a polish that isn’t your normal style… and Serum No 5 created a holographic polish. It was one of the first holographic shades of hers I tried (might have been one of her first in general?) Is that little backstory important? Not entirely. I’m reminiscing mostly, BUT this is the first full on holographic collection I’ve reviewed…
