Swatch & Review: Turtle Tootsie – May Birthstone Trio

***PRESS (PR) SAMPLE NOTICE ***

Good Morning and happy Polish Con Eve Friday!!! Boy, that was a mouth full. Today, I am so excited to have swatches of the May Birthstone Trio from Turtle Tootsies. Why is this month so much more special than all the others? Well, I’m glad you asked. First, it’s Mother’s Day on the 14th. If you haven’t already purchased a gift for that special lady in your life, this trio is guaranteed to make her happy.

But if that wasn’t reason enough….May is my birth month!!! Yep, that’s right, May 11th I’ll be celebrating the big 34! And per the usual, I’ll be celebrating all month long! #teamtaurus

Speaking birthdays for just a sec, who doesn’t love a good joke. “What do turtles do when one of them has a birthday?”

Give up? “They have shell-a-bration!” LOL 🙂

Hang on, I have another one. “What do turtles use to communicate?”

Wait for it…..”A SHELLphone!!!”

Last one, promise. “What did turtle say to the taco?”

Gotcha! You’ll have to wait until the end of the post for the punch line. But I won’t make ya wait too long, let’s jump into the swatches.

**All swatches are done using Commitment Issue Peel-off Base Coat by Vapid, QDTC by 2-Bit (shiny) and Matte Me topcoat by Jior Couture (matte). Swatch photos are taken using artificial lights.**
