Polish Pickup: Rainbows (June 2021)

*Disclosure: PR samples- I received these polishes for free in exchange for swatch photography.* 

Hello! Today I’ll be sharing a few of the PPU & IPU offerings for this month’s Polish Pickup! This month’s Polish Pickup will be open from June 4 at 11am ET to June 7, and the theme is rainbows🌈 An apt theme, in my opinion, since Pride month is also June. Let’s get into it!

Different Dimension: Space Rainbows

Space Rainbows is described as a bright pastel pink (warm) to bright amethyst (cold) thermal polish loaded with gold to orange to pink to green color shifting iridescent flakies, pink to orange to gold to green aurora shimmers and holographic microflakies. It is inspired by the Different Dimension logo and branding.

The thermal properties on this polish are very reactive, and the formula for it was pretty good too. The formula for Space Rainbows leans a bit on the thicker side, but the flakes in the polish lie flat and come out quite easily.

Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat in various temperature states.

Space Rainbows will be available for $12 with no cap.

Different Dimension: Cuticle Oil Duo

Different Dimension also brings us a cuticle oil duo in Pineapple Cilantro & Macintosh Apple fragrances. The duo will include one oil pen in each scent, and is inspired by colorful fruit salads.

Pineapple Cilantro is described as a perfect blend of sweet pineapple, coconut, and tangy cilantro.

Macintosh Apple is described as having an aroma of crisp, juicy, sweet and sour McIntosh apples.

I’ve been a user of Different Dimension’s cuticle oils for a while, and I love them! The scents don’t linger for too long, and the oil absorbs quite well too. I’m also a fan of the brush pen applicators for cuticle oils, so it’s very portable and easy to use.

The cuticle oil duo will be available for $7 with no cap.

Jen & Berries: Someday We’ll Find It

Someday We’ll Find It is described as a green holographic nail polish with a mix of blue/green, red/gold and purple/orange gold UCC flakies. It is inspired by Over the Rainbow – Muppet frogs and their rainbow songs.

Someday We’ll Find It had a great formula – Jen & Berries typically has, in my opinion, a really smooth and easy to work with holographic polish formula. I went with three coats for my swatches – you could definitely get away with two coats and be pretty happy, but I thought three coats plumped out the look a bit more and built up the flakes better.

Shown is three coats plus glossy top coat.

Someday We’ll Find It will be available for $12 with a cap of 150.

Lucky 13 Lacquer: Love Dares You

Love Dares You is described as a fluffy cloud white crelly with a blend of aqua/purple and pink/gold/green color-shifting UCC flakies. It is inspired by Freddie Mercury & David Bowie’s Under Pressure.

Loves Dares You had a great formula – it’s absolutely jam packed with flakes, so you won’t have any trouble getting them out. They lie flat and pair well with the more neutral base. The pond effect with the flakes is gorgeous too.

Shown is two coats with glossy top coat.

Love Dares You will be available for $10 with a cap of 250.

As a recap, PPU goes live on June 4 at 11am ET and lasts until June 7 at 11:59pm ET. Happy shopping, and thanks for reading!

XOXO,

Lauren
