I Made a Promise, Mr. Frodo
I promise…I did NOT know this in advance…but Dave Grohl’s favorite color is green (at least according to some meme I saw on the internet.) That’s why Pinnacle Polish “I Made a Promise, Mr. Frodo” was the perfect choice for attending a Foo Fighters concert in Portland a few weekends ago. I admit it, age has caught up with me and I wore earplugs through the whole concert and it was still plenty loud. Sorry, not sorry.
For some reason, I had assumed this polish was textured from the promotional shots…but it’s a scattered holographic polish. It had fantastic staying power and barely chipped.
This is two coats of “I Made a Promise, Mr. Frodo” over Cuticula Mic Drop Base Coat in “Melt Down” and under Cuticula Limitless Top Coat in “Champagne Toast“.
Polish Pickup July 2024 – Rewind
Somehow, I missed June’s Polish Pickup…I was traveling and it just slipped my mind. So that’s my excuse for going fucking HAM in July. 10 polishes…FUCK YEAH!
Starting from the top left and going clockwise:
Beaux Rêves Lacquer “Blooming Azalea” ($12) was originally from January 2024 – Deadly Plants. It’s inspired by azaleas and is a magnetic polish. I’m unlikely to magnetize it though.
Atomic Polish “Sour Apple Rings” ($13.50) was from May 2023 – Junk Food. It appears fairly self explanatory.
Cuticula “Never Sleep Again” ($13) was from September 2022 – Scary Vibes. Helloooo Freddy Krueger!
Limitless Top Coat by Cuticula in “Champagne Toast” ($10) was from April 2023 – Flower Power.
Pinnacle Polish “I Made a Promise, Mr. Frodo” ($13) was from October 2022 – Sidekicks. It was inspired by ass-kicking Samwise Gamgee.
By Dany Vianna “Rosewater” ($14) was another from April 2023 – Flower Power. It’s inspired by…rosewater.
Jior Couture “The Tea On The Manatee” ($13.75) was from way back in October 2021 – Monsters & Mythical Creatures. This thermal polish is inspired by the idea that sailors often mistook manatees for mermaids.
Crystal Knockout “25 Fly” ($12.50) was from October 2023 – 90’s Grunge and inspired by Veruca Salt’s “American Thighs” album.
Lilypad Lacquer “You will respect my authoritahhh!” ($14) was from February 2022 – 90’s TV and inspired by Officer Cartman.
Last, but not least…Sweet Heart Polish “You Betta Recognize” ($13) was from February 2024 – Wild Animals and inspired by the red Veiltail Betta fish.
I bet you’ll never guess which one I picked to try first…
