🌧️ 💐 20 April Manicures 🌼 ☔️

My April Manicures

I am so enjoying my peel-off base coat 2026 of trying everything in my collection! I doubt I’ll actually try EVERY polish I own as I have so many, but I am really enjoying how easy it is to do my nails and the different pops of color and finishes every day.

My system:
Island: Want it with me on a deserted island
WWA: I want to wear this again
Meh: Not sure it’s for me and will try once more or just rehome
Dislike: Will rehome

1 Polished & Pretty by MBA Cosmetics Just Wing It: Island
2 Lumen Eternity: Island
3 Holo Taco Favorite Sister: Island
4 Cirque Colors Ringleader: Island
5 Cracked Kissing Cupcakes: WWA to Island – I love it and the formula is gorgeous. Not sure it looks great on my skintone
6 OPI Don’t Be Koi With Me: ISLANDDDD! This is a vintage I tracked down and I love it
7 Glitch Lacquer Lovey Dovey (magnetic): WWA – I didn’t feel like this had a strong magnetic reaction at all though it was lovely
8 butter LONDON Knees Up: ISLAND!
9 butter LONDON Red: WWA to meh
10 Lumen Red Flags: island! One of my favorite reds of all time! I liked i so much that I peeled it off, applied Nailtiques formula 2 as the base, and then kept it as my mani for a week, something I’ve not done much this year! I also did my mom’s nails with this polish and she loved it too.
11 KB Shimmer Ferris One of All: omgisland Is it possible to love a nail polish with your whole heart? I LOVE THIS POLISH.
12 Sassy Sauce Moving Violation: meh? I need to use it again as a topper. I like it in the sunshine but hate it indoors. Very gray looking and don’t see the holo.
13 liked Sassy Sauce Moving Violation much more layered on other polishes though again, inside lighting was kind of blah.
14 ILNP Misbehaving: WWA to Island
15 Penelope Luz Happy Days 10 Years (magnetic) – I thought this was an island because I love the way it looks SOMEtimes… sheer and shimmery holo was what I wanted – but on me, inside, even in good lighting, was meh. Liked it most cat eye. I want to try it again. For now, it is meh to WWA.
16 Polished N Pretty by MBA Cosmetics: Life is Better in Flip Flops (solar multichrome): It’s a firm WWA.
17 Heartbreaker by Danny Viana: WWA
18 ILNP Nexus – Island
19 Cracked 23 Flavors – This seems to have a cult following but it is very meh on me.
20 Throwing in my May 1 mani to get to a nice even 20 picture collage. Emily de Molly When the Sun Leaves – absolute island.
