Thank you, thank you, thank you for swatching the Nail Art Studio toppers! I have seen one other swatch video and they were only done over white and black and they were just ok. I’ve put and taken these out of my Target online cart so many times, but after seeing your swatches over some of the other colors, I finally decided to grab some! And Target is currently running a by one get one 25% off sale on nail care so the timing was perfect! Thank you so much for your amazing videos and all the comparisons you do! Not only are they fun to watch, but they’re so helpful in making decisions in what to grab and what to pass on!

I’m so glad you found the video helpful!!! I’ll be sharing different combos in the future with the toppers just bc they’re so fun! 🤩 Toppers like this need more than one video bc of all of the combo possibilities!!! 😝

[@Rasikakt55]

Love seeing all the toppers over the colors!! So fun! I actually like some of the ones you hated 🤣

[@elizabethr4107]

Me, too!

[@elizabethr4107]

I loved the red and green for xmas! I need all those special effects polishes!

[@livwithbiv]

The red and green are beautiful! I’ll be doing a more detailed review on the special effects soon!!

[@Gavrielle_Am_Yisrael_Chai]

Very interesting & fun collection especially for yall younger folks! 😊 My daughters will love the variety & the toppers are actually all classy & pretty this time! Thanks for the wonderful review Brandi & hope you have a wonderfully week! 😁❤

[@livwithbiv]

Hey Ginger!! I totally agree these toppers are more classy than a lot of toppers. I’m usually not a fan of toppers, but these are just different. 💖 Hope you have a great week!!!! 😘😘😘

[@misse7095]

Love the toppers! Thanks, Brandi!!

[@livwithbiv]

Oh yaaaay!!! Glad you enjoyed!! Thanks for watching. 🫶🏼

Hi sweet sleeping Lola🐾 “Mystic Marine”, “Separated Starlight” (perfect name!)””, “Astral Aura”, “Mystic Mystic Marine” (A STUNNER), “Lustrous Luxury”, “Frosted Fantasy” “Gilded Galaxy” “Imagine That”, (I love hearing Lola’s excited tippy taps 🐾🐾😂) “Bizarre You Ready”, “Unreal It In” are my favorites! (Lola is always excused 🥹). I want all the special effects polishes! Thank you so much for all the comparisons and swatches of the special effect polishes over the regular polishes! That must taken a long time!! You looked absolutely gorgeous as usual 💕

[@livwithbiv]

Lol!!!! So glad you appreciated Lola’s extra noises in the video. 😂 I was hoping people wouldn’t get annoyed by the footsteps. Lol. So glad you loved so many from this video. It was definitely a fun video to film bc the polishes are so pretty. 🤩 Thank you for your always sweet compliments and for always taking the time to watch and comment. 🩷🩷🩷🩷

Very pretty collection! My favourite was Bizarre You Ready 💅😍 Omg Yes, been loving the Special Effects collection!!! The combos you did here are gorgeous! I didn't initially pick up Gilded Galaxy but after seeing your combos I'm glad I changed my mind! Now I'm just waiting for it to arrive in the mail!!! 💅🥰

[@livwithbiv]

Oh yay!!!! So glad you’re loving the Special Effects too! I thought they were so fun to play with. Hope you love Gilded as much as I do!!!! Thanks for watching. 🥰🥰🥰

[@MoodysMood-lt6wh]

Nice colors! Thanks for swatching and sharing! Hi Lola 🥰 I probably won’t pick any up though. I think I have a lot of polishes that are very similar.

[@livwithbiv]

Lola says Hi!!!!! 🐾 So glad you enjoyed the polish colors. Even more happy that you get to save $ bc you already have similar polishes!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻Thanks for watching!!! 💖💖💖

[@samanthagarcea5387]

Hi Brandi! I really like this collection! I have the pink and the blue and I really do like the brick red and might pick that up as we get closer to fall! I love fall but just not ready to wear fall shades on my nails as summer just started. I don’t think I’ll pick up any of the Essie special effects shades but I do want some of the new jellies they came out with. Have a great week friend! 😎

[@livwithbiv]

Hey Samantha!!! The pink and blue are so pretty!!! Love the red too…for Fall. I’m debating trying some of the jellies. I’ll most likely pick them up to review, but not quite sure yet. Hope you had a fab holiday weekend!!!

[@nightdiffy]

thank you for reviewing essie 💗💜💙 your hair looks great, too 💜 btw “keeping it surreal” is a stainer, so use a good basecoat 💗

[@livwithbiv]

Thank you so much for the sweet hair compliment and thank you for watching. So good to know the red is a stainer. Thanks for sharing!

[@daisynails.nailtutorialsan9924]

Nice video! This collection is actually pretty decent. If I do buy any, it would be the pale pink, pink, blue and green.

[@livwithbiv]

Thank you! I agree these are much prettier than I was expecting! Such a fun collection for Summer. 🏖️⛱️☀️👙

[@amzm55]

I’m very excited about the special effects polish. and May just buy all ofthem. 😂

[@livwithbiv]

Lol!!!! Yaaaaay!!! Love your excitement for them. They’re so fun!!!!!

[@janeburkhart4051]

I'm the outlier here - I love the red and the dark green! However, knowing the red will stain I'll skip it. Thank you for all the comparisons, Brandi. Now I have to see if I can find Autumn Allure, lol! So cute hearing Lola in the background. ❤

[@livwithbiv]

Hey Jane!!! Those are the perfect colors for you since you’re wearing fall colors right now (except for the fact that the red stains). You can never go wrong with a dark green polish. One of my fave shades to wear. Glad you appreciated Lola in the background. She’s always by my side so I just had to roll with it 😂😂😂

[@dee8269]

Love the video😍 I have also Mystic Marine and Ethereal Escape and they are my fave toppers for this year🤩😍🤩. They apply so even, no streaks and the shimmer is very fine compared with OPI Glazed N' Amused which is streaky and not so translucent as Essie Special Effects.

[@livwithbiv]

Yes!!!! Those are beautiful toppers. I was really amazed with how even they were as well. So perfect!!!!

[@hannahj0elle]

I was so curious about dance till dawn vs everything’s cake! And agree that they look way more tempting in person! I went to Ulta and was like, ohhh! 😂

[@livwithbiv]

Yes!! When I saw this collection in Ulta, it was so fun and vibrant!!!! Thanks for watching, Hannah. 💖💖💖

[@beanbird2]

Hey brandi, i was wondering with the new zoya collection 2024 beachy brights 2, if you could compare zoya vita with ilnp misbehaving and maybe even Zoya Malana if you have it?

[@livwithbiv]

Hey friend!! I don’t think I have Misbehaving, but I may have Malana!!! If I do, I’ll compare it for sure!!!!

[@franceslinda7355]

I think this is a great collection, especially the two pinks. Again the red is misplaced...more global warming. I think the special effects are gorgeous.

[@livwithbiv]

Yes!!! Totally agree the two pinks are gorgeous. And the red…like you said…global warming. 😂😂😂
