It was so hard to capture all the shifts in color, but it’s like a rainbow but grungy!
Loved the name of the polish, inspired by Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
Just watched the 3rd movie recently, it was so much more emotional than I was expecting, but in a good way.

My partner made this for me, he gets me

Not a mani pic, but thought you may appreciate it. He actually found a 4k image, edited it, then drove to Walmart for the sole purpose of printing and framing it. He said the lady at the photo center gave him judge-y looks lol 😂

New favorite glowy shifting polish, it’s absolutely mesmerizing! Seen here in 3 coats, between vibrant scents double bond base coat and G&G top coat.

Ah, I def get not wanting to name/support controversial brands.
Nice polish display! I imagine your station might look like a murder scene under blacklight lmao
Welcome!!! What color is this? It’s gorgeous 😍. Is it one polish or a base color with shimmer topper?
Also…nice keyboard! My nail battlestation is in a different room from my gaming battlestation, as my spouse and I have side-by-side computer setups and I would drive him crazy with my swatching clusterfuck lol
Love it, perfect for summer! I bet your mani is blinding in the sun lol
Love that they included G’raha nom nomming away and Estinien panicking from being surrounded by dozens of adorable small creatures ahaha

Barbie nails! Color: Two coats of mooncat - merkitten. Base: double bond base coat Top: glisten and glow QDTC.
Popular choice, I know, but I actually didn't love this color with my skin tone. Maybe I'll try it with a blurring base coat next time to alter the undertone a bit. I dunno, I’ll have to play around with it.
As an aside, I also just got my Fandom Flakie box in the mail, which was also Barbie themed! Too bad they didn't arrive before I went and saw the movie.
Beautiful!!! I love how vivid the blue is.
I don’t have a long-standing favorite, but the one I am currently obsessed with is Bluebird’s 24 karat goldfinch. Can’t stop staring!

Products: vibrant vinyl double bond base coat, polished for days soft focus snow (except not on pinky), fancy gloss glowing sand (2 coats, 3 coats on pinky), vibrant vinyl fast and hard top coat.
I was worried it was a bit too sheer, but it actually became opaque after 3rd coat (on pinky). The other fingers have a blurring base coat (soft focus) to hide the nail line, which then only required 2 coats of color.

Oh man, mooncat was another brand I got sucked into. Their marketing is so good, I couldn’t resist lol
Oh man, holo taco is a brand that I know I will love so am actively trying not to buy any since I know I will want everything. Death Valley nails is another, but I think they have unique thermals that I will eventually want to try.
So sparkly! 🤩

What are your favorite DIY dupes?
(lemmy.world)
This was an old attempt to dupe BKL’s hippolyta when I couldn’t snag it at the last respawn event before BKL shut down their storefront. I never owned the original but I wasn’t sure how my dupe photographed with flash compared
Products: glisten and glow sandals and sunset, starlight and sparkles unicorn topper
