Flamboyance

Is it shocking that the flamingo polish wasn’t the first one I tried from the “Sky Creatures” Polish Pickup? I shock myself sometimes…

1422 Designs “Flamboyance” is indeed a flamingo-themed polish. A FLAMBOYANCE is a group of flamingos…what a perfect word for it! In addition to the chunky black glitter, there is also microfine rose gold glitter. I brought it with me to the nail salon last week for my toes, for a brief match with my nails.

This is two coats of “Flamboyance”, over Cuticula Mic Drop Base Coat in “Froot Loops” and under Glisten & Glow Glitter Grabber and Cuticula Limitless Top Coat in “Huckleberry“.

Polish Pickup March 2026 – Sky Creatures

I went a bit overboard with March’s Polish Pickup….but how can I resist “Sky Creatures”?

1422 Designs “Flamboyance” ($13.50) is inspired by a flamboyance…which is a group of flamingos!

Arcana Lacquer “The Firemind” ($14.50) is a magnetic polish inspired by Niv Mizzet from Magic: The Gathering. (I haven’t played Magic in 30 years, but Google says it is a dragon wizard.)

Alchemy Lacquers “Here Be Dragons” ($13) is inspired by the dragons in the game, Stellaris.

Pahlish “Icarus” ($15) is a pricey magnetic polish inspired by the tale of the mortal that flew too close to the sun.

Haunted Polish “Odette” ($13.50) looks very similar to “Icarus”, but seems to be inspired by Swan Lake.

Sassy Cats Lacquer “Sky Fairy” ($13.50) is inspired by my second favorite moth, the luna moth.

Tyler’s Trinkets “Luck Dragon” ($13.50) is the third white-ish polish in the bunch, inspired by Falcor in The Neverending Story.

I’ll be having lots of fun with these polishes!
