As you may know, creme polishes are my first love. I’m a bit obsessed with metallics right now, but cremes are still what I reach for a majority of the time when I am planning to do nail art. I was really excited when my swatch package arrived from indy brand Make Me Cosmetics Collections, because it was filled with gorgeously vivid creme polishes!
