The Stereoplasm Cats collection included eight scents and I picked up four of them. The original release included Ballroom Cat, Boho Cat, Crunchy Cat, Munchie Cat, Orchard Cat, Snoozy Cat, Soft Cat, and Stretchy Cat.

Paint it Pretty Polish excels at blues so I was excited to hear that she had a new collection coming out. Even better, she is releasing it a little early so you can pick these up during her Black […]

As a result, it was completely opaque in two coats, but you do need to wait until the first dries to […]
