Happy Monday! I have the May 2025 Little Box of Horrors up today – and the theme this time around is Creepy Critters!
For May I have 21 polishes to share!
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).
The shop has new dates! Instead of the 18th – 30th, LBOH will be opened from the 22nd – 30th.
