How is the month half over already? Work has been busy – but next week I have half days all week (mini vacay but not really) so I’m excited to sleep in. I planned to have this up last week, but… it didn’t happen. So.. tonight we’re looking at my post for the Hella Handmade Creations April 2022 shop!
I have 20 of this months offerings to share!
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues Peel Off Base, and Sweet & Sour Lacquer Gloss Sauce . I purchased the Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues, Sweet & Sour Lacquer gifted me their Gloss Sauce.
I do use artificial lighting for my photos. I get the most done at night, so I swatch a lot at night. My current setup uses GlamCor Pro LIghts and I use the Ultra X Model and this Daylight Company Duo Daylight Lamp (affiliate link).

I add a few squirts into my hand, rub my palms together and scrunch the product into my damp hair after a shower. I do have long, thick but fine hair, so I do require about 4-5 pumps of product for my hair. I avoid the top of my head because my scalp tends to be oily, but the ends dry out and Tamesies has helped a ton, plus is adds a nice scent to my hair.

Okay so I actually have 19 items. As I went along, one of the Pampered Polishes wasn’t in the shop, so if it appears – I’ll add it back in. I’m just not sure if it is or not (it was labeled April HHC for Mother’s Day)
Reds and blues were dominating this month and there’s a nice mix of finishes.
Available: April 14th at 12:01 am EST until April 21st at 11:59 pm HST (Hawaii Standard Time)
Where To Buy: Hella Handmade Creations Shop
There’s a ton more available in the HHC shop, so be sure to take a look!
