Polish Pickup March 2023 | Rainy Days

Disclosure: I am a paid employee for Polish Pickup. While this post is not sponsored, I do have a relationship with the hosting collaboration shop.

Happy Saturday! It’s probably going to be Sunday by the time I hit publish – but oh well. This month snuck up on me since it’s such a short month – but I currently have my post and YouTube video done for the Polish Pickup March 2023 shop, and this month the theme is Rainy Days!

This month I have 50 items (I am still missing 2 I think, hopefully I can add them in on Monday) and all 50 of the items currently in my possession are also in my YouTube video below, so be sure to take a look to see them all applied or demonstrated (for the non polish items)

For the fine details – for all photos shown – I used Vapid Lacquer Commitment Issues Peel Off Base, and for the glossy photos I did use a combination of the top coats including Sweet & Sour Lacquer and Vibrant Vinyls (I purchased Sweet & Sour Lacquer, Vibrant Vinyls was sent as PR this month.)  For all textured polishes, I did use Glisten & Glow Glitter Grabber (PR) and for matte photos I used Anchor & Heart Lacquer Sea Glass (purchased by me, but I do swatch for the maker)

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).

Wishlisting starts Sunday, February 26th (today or tomorrow… depending on when I hit Publish on this post…) and the shop will open on March 3rd at 11am Eastern.

KBSHIMMER | JASMINE & PATCHOULI SUGAR SCRUB

Inspiration: Inspired by Freshly turned earth and blooming gardens

Description: KBShimmer’s sugar scrubs are good for all over the body or as a hand scrub, the sugar particles are medium grit so they do a good job getting dry spots on your body situated.

Jasmine & Patchouli Hand & Body Scrub echoes rainy days, the warm earth, and fresh flowers. This earthy scent starts with notes of soft musk and patchouli. Sweet vanilla sugar and blooming jasmine help round out this heady scent. Featuring a creamy base accented with yellow and lime swirls, this scrub can be used daily to help keep your skin soft and fragrant.

To my nose this is a very nice and slightly sweetened floral. It doesn’t have that cloying floral scent, but it smells like a fresh jasmine. I’m personally not a patchouli fan, but the mix of it with Jasmine (which I love) and vanilla sugar helps lessen the scent for me.

Inspiration: Inspired by Rain on Citrus Fruit

Description: Da Balm-er is a cross between a balm and body butter. It’s creamy like a body butter but has a more emollient feel like a balm would. It’s an intensive treatment you can use anywhere (I love it on cuticles of course) but a little goes a long way. If you use too much – it will feel very oily (like a balm would) so start with a little and build up if you need more.

UNICORN MAGIC SKINCARE | DELUXE COCONUT MILK HAND CREME

Inspiration: Inspired by Comfort food eaten on cold rainy days

Description: Milk has been used in beauty routines since ancient times, it is high in lactic acid that aids to remove dead skin cells, for soft and supple skin. Coconut milk is also packed full of vitamins and antioxidants, especially vitamin C, which is known to brighten skin and increase elasticity. Along with quality skin loving oils and butters, this makes coconut milk the perfect option to include in a creamy coconut milk hand creme. This creme has a more fluid consistency than the Unicorn Magic Skincare Deluxe Triple Butter Hand Lotion, but is still rich, nourishing and moisturizing.

This month’s scent is Black Raspberry Vanilla and it is a perfectly balanced aroma of sweet, dark berries with velvety vanilla. Top notes of black cherry that give way to a heart of raspberry, strawberry, and plum, with base notes of vanilla sugar.

This is a really nice scent. It’s heavier on the raspberry so it has that nice, sweet and slightly tart berry scent then a softer vanilla. It’s delicious smelling.

Price: $9.75 | Cap: 200

VIBRANT VINYLS | MONSOON SEASON SCENTED DOUBLE BOND BASE COAT

Inspiration: Inspired by Rainy Days

Description: Double Bond is a ridge filling base coat and sticky base coat in 1. Best of both worlds. I also sometimes like wearing it alone cause it gives a healthy, sheer, milky look to the nails.

Monsoon Season – Down-to-earth freshness. Top notes of bergamot, clementine, and grapefruit; followed by middle notes of jasmine and rose;  well-rounded with base notes of patchouli, sandalwood, and oakmoss.

To my nose this is a more vibrant earthy scent with floral notes. I don’t pick up rose much – but I do get the jasmine scent (jasmine is my fav floral scent so it usually stands out more for me) It definitely falls more floral than anything for me scent wise.

Price: $8.50 | Cap: None

VIBRANT VINYLS | MONSOON SEASON SCENTED FAST & HARD TOP COAT

Inspiration: Inspired by Rainy Days

Description: Fast & Hard is a super glossy quick dry top coat that can be applied over wet polish without issue. It also works over stamping, just make sure you float the top coat!
