July is my birthday month and I was given quite a few bits which I am grateful for;


ILNP After Hours // Cuticula Saguaro Sunset // KbShimmer Ex-Static // ILNP Take a Bow // Ethereal Midsummer Eve // Chameleon Little Mermaid

Orly was one of my go to mainstream brands, I no longer support the brand but was kindly given the 2022 collection and I will continue to use up the polishes but not purchase from myself.
