Hey Everyone!

Are you ready for an 80s flashback? I posted these swatches to Instagram @twi_star already and I think a huge amount of my followers weren’t alive in the 80s haha! Anyways, enough of being old, today I have the ‘For the Love of Grayskull’ He-man and She-Ra inspired polish collection from MidWest Lacquer (Vinyl It Up) to show you! This collection releases on Friday, July 24th at 7:00 pm EST. Make sure to follow @vinylitup for more swatches.

Ok let’s travel onward to Castle Grayskull…

Look at how fun these are! I have such fond memories of this show and running around the house pretending to be She-Ra! For all my accent nails I made my own water decals. I used decal transfer paper that I found on amazon, you print the images and then spray a few coats of spray paint clear coat onto the printed sheet. You have to really let them dry for at least a day before applying to your nails and topping with top coat.

MidWest Lacquer End NF Blue Thermal Color Changing Polish tutorial

Press Sample

Hey Everyone!

Today I’m sharing another thermal from MidWest Lacquer aka Vinyl It Up and this one is soooo BLUE! Love it. Part of the proceeds from ‘End NF’ will be donated to the Children’s Tumor Foundation, nice. I could have asked Lizzie what colors these would change to but I like being surprised haha Turns out this blue turns white so my design layered over white makes it look like the polish disappears! Not something I would have done on purpose but I think it is such a fun look, a happy accident. Ok let’s get to swatches!

Whoah right, it’s so blue! The blue is the cold stage and I think when I was taking thes pics my hands were super cold because the blue is very opaque and bright but right now when I’m more of a normal temperature the blue isn’t as intense. I’m digging watching my mani change throughout the day haha

Here is how the polish transitions from cold to hot. Looks like icicle fingers! I’m thinking this polish would be perfect for a Frozen themed mani.

MidWest Lacquer Cincy Sunset Thermal Color Changing Polish and Blobbicure Nail Art Tutorial

Press Sample

Hi My Polish Friends!

Hope you are all doing well and if not well let's just look at polish until we feel better, deal?  Today I'm going to be sharing the first of 3 thermal color changing polishes sent to me for review from MidWest Lacquer aka Vinyl It Up.  Lizzie, the owner of Vinyl It Up, let me know a few months ago that she was working on expanding her line of vinyls to include polish!  I waited patiently for her research and development stage to be over lol  And then I got these babies, yaaaayyyy!  Today we are looking at 'Cincy Sunset' shall we?

And here is 'Cincy Sunset!'  A beautiful coral with pink flakies and gold shimmer that transitions to a warm yellow/peach.  These being my first thermal polishes (I know right?  Crazy, how is this even possible with all the polish I own?), I didn't really know what to expect but this baby blew me away!  Now I know why peeps seem to go so crazy for these, there's just something about them that just takes me back to my childhood when magic color changing toys were in your life.  As adults I don't have anything that changes colors :(  Well this problem is solved haha
