Miss Runway
Emily de Molly “Miss Runway” is inspired by a dress (probably for a masquerade ball) because it’s from January’s Masquerade Polish Pickup.
“Miss Runway” is a magnetic polish and although I did get what I thought were adequate results with the ring magnet, they are not striking enough to be picked up in picture. I counted to 30! and it still wasn’t long enough…I need to practice, because in the sample pics, I should be able to get a more striking light blue magnetic effect. Arghhhhhhhhhh.
This is two coats of “Miss Runway” over Cuticula Mic Drop Base Coat in “Tropical Oasis” and under Cuticula Limitless Top Coat in “Blackberry Passionfruit“.

Polish Pickup January 2025 – Masquerade
In anticipation of Mardi Gras (which is rather late this year – March!!!), January’s Polish Pickup theme is Masquerade.
DRK Nails “Nothing to Hide” ($13.40) is inspired by a Masquerade – Mardi Gras colors!
Emily de Molly “Miss Runway” ($13) is inspired by a dress. It’s magnetic!
Cuticula “Dance with Me” ($13) is also inspired by a Masquerade…but different colors.
Penelope Luz “Secret Allure” ($13.50) is inspired by a mask…for a Masquerade Ball. It’s also magnetic.
With all these magnetic polishes, I purchased a Ring Magnet ($6).
I cannot wait to Karma Chameleon all over the place!

Mileena Wins
Yes, THAT Mileena. Emily de Molly “Mileena Wins” is from April’s Video Games Polish Pickup and is inspired by Mileena from Mortal Kombat II. You know, the hot pink version of Kitana, except with TEETH. I LOVE looking at this polish!
I have literally a thousand hot pink polishes, but that’s what I love about Polish Pickup – each polish is so different that I’ll soon have two thousand hot pink nail polishes. To be fair, it’s really a red jelly with blue shimmer and gold glitter…but my human eyes detect hot pink.
This is two coats of “Mileena Wins” over Cuticula Mic Drop Base Coat in “Melt Down” and under Cuticula Limitless Top Coat in “Raspberry Pop”.

Polish Pickup April 2024 – Video Games
Did I need another $90 worth of nail polish?
The answer is clearly YES.
April’s Polish Pickup theme was “Video Games” – and that’s such a good theme! I picked a few of these polishes just for the theme…
Bee’s Knees “Queen of Rot” ($14) is inspired by Malenia from Elden Ring. (Insert Melania joke here.)
Dam Nail Polish “NO! Not Rainbow Road!” ($13.50) is inspired by the hardest level of Mario Kart.
Fancy Gloss “I Think I Have an Idea” ($13.50) is inspired by the game Rayman.
Krisable Designs “Kevin for King!” ($12.50) is inspired by Kevin the Dog from the Overcooked Series.
Cadillacquer “The Killing Moon” ($14) is inspired by Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, but I am gonna pretend it’s about Donnie Darko.
Emily de Molly “Mileena Wins” ($13) is inspired by Mileena from Mortal Kombat II.
I bet you cannot guess which one I’m trying first…
