Polish Pickup Junk Food May 2023 Swatches and Review

Polish Pickup opens this Friday for the May 2023 Junk Food-themed pre-order! The shop is open May 5 at 10AM EDT to Monday, May 8 at midnight EDT. I have products from KBShimmer and Music City Beauty to share this month!

KBShimmer Fruity Loops Sugar Scrub is a moisturizing sugar scrub containing 9.5 oz of product. The fragrance notes are orange, berry, tangerine, and vanilla .

Ingredients: Sucrose, Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil, Emulsifying Wax NF, Stearic Acid, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Fruit, Fragrance, Cetyl Alcohol, Phenoxyethanol (and) Caprylyl Glycol

Price: $10 for 9.5 oz. / no cap

KBShimmer Straight to the Pint is a very pale pink-white creme with hex glitters in multiple sizes in hot pink, blue, and light purple. I wore this in three thin coats and it had a great formula and quick dry time. I used KBShimmer Smooth Moves Glitter Smoothing Topper under KBShimmer Free and Clear Top Coat for a smooth finish. This does have larger glitters, but could be used without a peel-off base coat. This is definitely a throwback finish to the early days of indies, 10 years ago, when glitters in creme-jelly bases were all the rage!

Inspiration: Blizzards & ice cream

Price: $12 / no cap

Music City Beauty Nacho Business is a nacho orange creme-jelly with black micro shred glitters and red-gold iridescent large particle duochrome shimmer. I wore it in three thin coats, but two will cover. This had a great formula and quick dry time. I finished it off with a single layer of plump top coat. I wore this polish while travelling and came back home with a perfect, intact mani, which is rare. Music City Beauty's formula wears really well for me. 

Inspiration: nacho cheese Doritos

Price: $12.50 / 100 cap

Now for live swatches!
