Hella Handmade Creations: October 2021

*Disclosure: Press samples – I received these polishes for free in exchange for swatch photography. All reviews and opinions are my own.*

Hello! It’s that time of the month where Hella Handmade Creations is coming up for sale again. HHC is a monthly collaborative shop where makers contribute a product (usually polish) that follows a theme of their choosing. Makers will release polishes that follow the same theme for multiple months, and then move on to choosing a new unique theme of their own. The shop is open for preorder from the 14th to the 21st of every month. You can visit their website to shop here.

This month, HHC is also doing a bunch of giveaways for Halloween themed trios in their Facebook group! Check out my swatches and review of the giveaway polishes here.

I have four polishes to share with you today, but be sure to check out the HHC website to see tons of other polishes and goodies that will be available to shop.

Different Dimension: So, Pick Me, Choose Me, Love Me

So, Pick Me, Choose Me, Love Me is described as a violet jelly loaded with blue to violet aurora shimmers. It is the next polish in their Greys Anatomy series.

This polish had a great smooth formula, and it was easy to work with.

Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat.

So, Pick Me, Choose Me, Love Me will be available for $12 with no cap.

Lilypad Lacquer: So Dramatic

So Dramatic is described as an intense indigo jelly base filled with rainbow iridescent flakies. It is the next polish in their Color Therapy series.

So Dramatic had medium flake density, and the flakes laid even and flat. The formula was smooth and the base was quite opaque.

Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat.

So Dramatic will be available for $14 with no cap.

Nailed It: I Shall Always Be With You

I Shall Always Be With You is described as a teal to black thermal packed with orangey copper to gold to green shifting crystal flakies and holo flakies, and is inspired by Binx. It is the last polish in their Hocus Pocus series.

I Shall Always Be With You had a smooth formula with medium-high flakie density. It dries flat and the warm state is a more green-leaning teal than blue like in my photos.

I unfortunately had a mail incident where my PR package was in a hot mail locker for too long, and the thermal died in transit. I will say, despite the fact that my polish doesn’t transition I’m pretty happy with the teal warm state that it died in – it’s gorgeous.

Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat.

I Shall Always Be With You will be available for $13 with a cap of 120.

Rogue Lacquer: Poor Unfortunate Souls

Poor Unfortunate Souls is described as a deep and vampy purple with purple metallic flakes. This polish is the next in their The Little Mermaid series.

Poor Unfortunate Souls is quite opaque on its first coat, and the formula is smooth. The polish dries flat, and the color is a bit more purple than blue like in my photos.

Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat.

Poor Unfortunate Souls will be available for $12.50 with no cap.
