Happy Tuesday! I’m a few days behind on this since a few items were late arriving – but here we are! I have the Little Box of Horrors April 2024 post ready, and the theme this month is Stephen King Resurrected!
This month I have 26 items to share. Since I was already behind waiting on items, and I’m actually starting to get a head cold with a fun cough – I will not have a video this month. I tried recording a couple of times and I go into coughing fits and it’s a shaky mess. So I’m sorry for that.
For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues 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). For all textured polishes, I did use Glisten & Glow Glitter Grabber (PR) and Monarch Lacquer top coat over it.
For my lighting set up I use artificial lighting due to my day job, my set up involves 2 Neatfi XL Lamps from Amazon (affiliate link) as well as this Daylight Company Duo Daylight Lamp (affiliate link).
For my nails – they are Apres Gel X nails throughout this post, and the style is Extra Short Stiletto.
The shop opened on the 18th and will remain open until the 30th… so let’s take a look!
