Duri Cosmetics – Spring 2020 Retro Wave Collection // Swatch and Review

#PressSample

Hi everyone! I hope you are all staying safe in these troubling times. I haven’t been painting my nails too much lately and my hands and cuticles are a mess from all the extra washing and sanitizing but I got this gorgeous Duri collection in the mail awhile ago and did the best I could at this time! I apologize to Duri for taking so long to get this up on my blog!

These polishes are up on the website Duri.com right now for just $8 each or get the whole collection for a discounted price of $44.

This collection was sent to me to swatch and give an honest review.

Quixotic Polish – Prototype

Hey everyone! Today’s mani is a prototype from Quixotic Polish. I just got this one a week or so ago during her Anniversary sale. You usually need to have ninja fingers to get her proto bags because they do sell out fast.

You can’t get this exact polish but you should definitely check out Quixotic Polish HERE. She has gorgeous polishes and the maker, Mary, is a super person too! If you like pinky purples, I would highly recommend Razzle My Berries 2.0. It is gorgeous!! I am not affiliated, just a huge fan!

Moon Shine Mani – Miss You, Su

Hey everyone! This was a mani I did about a week ago, I just haven’t posted it yet. This will be the last time you see these long nails for quite awhile. I had a bad break and took them all down to little nubbins.

This polish was one of four polishes that a bunch of us from the Makeup Alley Nail Care board had custom made in memory, after a long time poster passed away last year. I wore this in tribute to her on her birthday last week.

My husband and I have been together forever (married 25 years last year) so we don’t go all out for holidays anymore. We will go out to a nice restaurant for dinner tonight and that’s it.

Hi everyone! The other day at Big Lots I saw a display with some sparkly LA Colors and had to pick this purple one up! I know there was also a gold, red and green and some may have been sold out already as this was the last purple one in that display.

Nail Pattern Boldness – The Headless Horseman

Hey everyone! Today I have another Halloween type mani to share! This is from Nail Pattern Boldness. I first bought polishes from her way back in 2012. She used to be a regular poster on Makeup Alley back then (when I was just a lurker) and she was one of the first indies I bought from. She’s quietly been around since then, you don’t hear about her too often. I got an email a couple weeks ago that she was having a closeout clearance sale in her Etsy shop. She’s quitting making polish except for her base and top coats. So she’s selling grab bags of “however many fit in a flat rate padded envelope” for $25.00. Shipping is included but I had to pay a little extra in tax. What a great deal! I ended up with 12 polishes in my mystery bag and this was one of them!
