Monster High Collection by You Polish

Greetings from Houston, Tejas! Now I have my notes (thanks to my semi-awesome husband, he's only semi awesome because I'm awesome hahah), I can put together a blog post or two! Today I have a look at You Polish's Monster High Collection. Now, I don't know a darn freakin' thing about Monster High or the (adult) obsession with it haha [I'll probably get crap for saying that lmao], but I do know a little thing or two about indie nail polish ;] After the jump I have swatches of 5 out of the 6 Monster High Collection by You Polish.




First up is Lagoona B.

Lagoona B is a pale yellow crelly with a mix of circles, hex and square glitter in yellow, turquoise and pink. While I have no idea who Lagoona is, haha, I do enjoy this polish for how unique it looks and how much the colors pop in the base. I wish I grabbed a bit more of that pink glitter, I think it's a fun contrast!

I did 2 coats of Lagoona B. It was a lot more opaque than I thought it would be, always a nice surprise! It was a smooth application and it dried pretty quickly. I wish I would of had more of the pink on the nail. (What? Lacey wants more pink!? haha) If you're looking for more pink glitter - Lagoona B. also comes with a bag of pink flower shaped glitter you can place on your nail :]

This one was super interesting to me. I can't recall how many times I've seen a brown jelly polish. The base of Clawdeen W. reminds me of the brown shade of Hare Polish Bury the Hatchetfish, if that helps some haha. In this brown jelly, you will find hexes, squares, and circles in darker purple, lighter purple, gold, medium brown, and dark brown. I love how unique this color combo is!

I sis 2 coats of Clawdeen W. If you have longer nails, you might want 3+ coats or undies for this polish due to visible nail line. I again had no issues with this polish. It was a great application and a decent dry time for a jelly polish.

This was my 2nd favorite from the collection. Mostly because of the color combo. It's such a unique blend of colors I never would of imagined would of looked so awesome together! Y'know? Ghoulia is a deeper aqua color with red, green, and blue squares and hexes. I especially love how the green glitters pop! And I'm bi-partial to red and aqua since those were my wedding colors lmao.

This was again, 2 coats. No issues with this. Everything came out of the bottle well, covered well application was awesome, and so was the dry time. :]

This was my 3rd favorite, I'm a sucker for any green minty color. Not to mention things with crazy awesome contrast. Frankie S. is a minty green crelly base with blue, black,  grey, and pink hexes and square glitter in various sizes. I'm loving the bright blue and pink in this polish!

This was 2 coats of Frankie S. The application was just as good as all the others, along with the dry time. This one seemed easier to get the larger pieces of glitter on the nail in comparison to the other polishes. No issues with this one.

I don't know what Twyla's problem is, but for some reason decent pictures of her are hard to find on Google lmao. ANYWAYS, this was my favorite out of the 5. You can see why, I'm guessing! There's so much awesome crammed into this polish. Twyla B. is a lavender purple crelly with blueish-purple shimmer, light purple, darker purple, blue and aqua shreds and hex. Told ya there was a lot going on! ;] the shimmer is 10x more amazing in person, trust me.

I did 3 coats of Twyla B. It was a little on the sheer side, but because of the color it's understandable. No issues with this one either. Application was smooth, everyone came out to party, and the dry time was also good. If you buy any of them, buy this one. Well, buy whatever you want lmao but this one is the best in my opinion :D

There is also a 6th polish in You Polish's Monster High Collection. Venus is a glitter top coat, if you're interested in seeing it swatched - You Polish has it on her Facebook Page, here. I will have the swatch at a later date due to supplies.

  1. The Clawdeen is gorgeous. I love the brown jelly with those colors inside. I might have to purchase that one. And I didn't realize there was an adult obsession with Monster High...
