Kim of
Music City Beauty has just celebrated her
9th Anniversary as a polish maker! I still remember finding the brand, then known as
Smokey Mountain Lacquers before Kim's move to Nashville
, in my never-ending search for indie holos. I still have my first order receipts in my email inbox - I started out on November 10, 2013 with an order for
Forever Classy, a taupe jelly holo and
A Walk Through Eden, a forest green shimmer holo. I had to go back again on November 29 for
Showstopper, which is the polish I really think of when I reminisce about the beginning of Kim's brand - this was a super-glowy red shimmer holo that was perfectly named. Another huge highlight of my blogging career, and my long time as a customer and blogger of the brand, was getting to work with Kim on
Smokey Mountain Lacquers Trick or Treating Under the Stars, which was inspired by my fond memories trick or treating as a kid in Minnesota. It was a black jelly with red/gold multichrome flakes representing fall leaves, and holo microflake for the stars of a clear, crisp Halloween. This was back when these holo microflakes were still kind of a novelty! Anyway, Kim still does customs if you are interested in something like this of your own - she is really good at them. I've rambled old-man style long enough, so let's get to the new duo at hand. These are available through
Saturday September 10 for 30% off with code
9YEARS.
