Moore Swatches: July 2019 Polish Pickup (PPU) and Indie Pickup (IPU) – Rewind!

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

Hey Sugas!!! You know we’re halfway through the year when Polish and Indie Pickup (PPU/IPU) start to gear up for the yearly REWIND to give us a second chance on those we may have missed out on. What do you mean, Krystal?

Allow me to explain. During the July PPU/IPU timeframe, July 5th thru 8th, makers are able to rewind time to bring back their fan favorite and highly sought after polish for a second time. The “rewind” polish will be available on the PPU/IPU site in addition to brands offering a companion/sibling polish on their individual site during a specified period.

Let’s take a look!

Enjoy…

Moore Swatches: July Makers Dozen – Cakes

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

Hey Sugas!!! Fun fact #546, nothing makes me happier than a slice of warm, moist cake and a glass of cold milk. There’s something so nostalgic about the aroma of cake in the oven. Whether it’s yellow, marble or red velvet, I have yet to find a cake I don’t love!

For July, the collective brands of Makers Dozen have created polishes all inspired by… you guessed it, CAKE! Before we take a look at some of the polishes for July, let me give you a quick recap of how Makers Dozen works, just in case you missed my Up Close and Personal last month with the founding  12!

How will the box be run?

The Makers Dozen is a collaboration between 12 makers with a different guest maker joining monthly. Polishes will be sold on maker’s individual web sites. Clicking on the brands name below will provide a direct link to the makers site. 

Who are the founding brands?

The founding makers are:

  • Olivia T. (Copacetic Cosmetics)
  • Jenn D (NeVerMind Polish)
  • Jannalyn M (LYNB Designs)
  • Sacha J (Jior Couture)
  • Angie C/N (Sassy Pants Polish)
  • Sabrina B (Zombie Claw Polish)
  • Trish R (PI Colors)
  • Anetress M (Baby Girl Lacquer)
  • Alicia C (Leesha’s Lacquers)
  • Cynthia D (Alter Ego)
  • Simone V (Ms Sparkle)
  • Lisette V/J (Inspirrations)

What is the frequency?

We will be doing this monthly. So 13 polishes released each month.

Pricing:

The pricing is set my each individual maker depending on their own preferences.

How is Makers Dozen different from other boxes that are currently available?

Makers Dozen is so much different, and it’s really exciting. From day 1 to now the idea has changed so much and it’s a great thing. We will be releasing polishes with a cap of 40 so they will stay exclusive and it’ll be exciting to get your hands on! Because of this cap polishes may sell out super quick, but we aren’t having a cut off date. If they are still available in the next monthly they will still be able to be purchased. Also each bottle will be numbered just like works of art should be! We will have 13 drawings in our group to allow members to win free shipping, discounts, etc. The makers are so excited to be engaging with the members I really think it will be something special. Another thing that sets us apart is that each month will be a rainbow of colors! We all rotate colors each month so every month there will be 13 different colored polishes!

Why ‘Maker’s Dozen’?

Makers Dozen was a name that the group came up with together, a play on bakers dozen, and it fits so perfectly!

So there you have it! Grab yourself a glass of milk, a scoop of ice cream or both if you like to live dangerously because these makers are serving CAKE!!!

Enjoy…

But we have a lot of great plans coming up including a few day trips to the beach, museum trips and celebrating our summer babies birthdays. I’ll take the peace and quite while I can. Did i mention that my youngest has decided to hang up her leotard for pom poms. Yep, I am officially a cheer mom. Jason is not to thrilled about the short skirt but he’s a very supportive dad and happy to about her new endeavor. He’s also very excited about being back on the field watching football, even if it is ages 7-9. Football is football in his world, he’ll take it anyway he can get it. Xavier is still focused on the books, basketball and band. While he has the next few weeks off from band he is focused on getting his driver’s permit. – watch world! As for my middle, Xylana, she is embarking on her own little business of baby-sitting over the summer; my little entrepreneur! 

On to the polish…

Moore Swatches: KBShimmer – Pretty Revenge Duo

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

Hey Sugas!!! KBShimmer is super excited to be working with Author Emily Liebert to celebrate her upcoming July book release, Pretty Revenge.

KBShimmer creates vibrant and distinctive nail polishes that spark confidence and self-expression. Bestselling author Emily Liebert writes compulsively readable novels that plumb the depths of female relationships. Together, the two have collaborated on an exclusive duo of polishes inspired by Liebert’s new book PRETTY REVENGE, a novel of psychological suspense that explores just how far someone will go for vengeance.”

“It is a modern-day All About Eve story that explores just how far someone will go for vengeance through the eyes of two women who are not at all who they appear to be. The polishes, a daring red and a shimmering silver, are named after Liebert’s two main characters, Kerrie and Jordana, and reflect their personalities and dualities. Wear red if you’re feeling bold and dangerous. Try silver for a look that’s dazzlingly chic.”

Moore Swatches: Femme Fatale Cosmetics – Practical Magic Collection, July COTM and July FOTM

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

Hey Sugas!! The Practical Magic Collection was inspired by the 1998 movie of the same name. Sally and Gillian Owens, born into a magical family but have mostly avoided witchcraft themselves. However, when Gillian’s vicious boyfriend, Jimmy Angelov, dies unexpectedly, the Owens sisters give themselves a crash course in hard magic.

This 6-piece collections was created with excitement but not with any idea where to to go with it (color-wise). So the palette ended up with as an unexpected but pleasant surprise – something magical, whimsical and a little bit curious.

Enjoy!
