    This was a breath of fresh air. I don't understand why one would buy Gucci when you could support a smaller local business for a fraction of the cost. Bonus points if the business donates a portion of profits to a charity. Nice things don't always have to come with a label.

I've been wanting them so badly, but our identity has been stolen so I don't shop on line. The web site was secure & easy to shop on & the shipping was informative & fast & the formula is amazing! I'm Addicted to these shifting colors & Unicorn skins! Looking forward to adding to my HT collection! Thank you for making such a wonderful product Simply Nailogical!

A gunmetal grey with red flecks called Guillotine Grey (the red is the blood of the bourgeoisie). A pale cream with a red shimmer called Daddy’s Milk (for the Jordan Peterson video, the red is for the lobster queen). A green gold linear holo called Opulence…the possibilities are endless

      But the value of Gucci for every item goes down very quick while other luxury brand items gain value over time.
      And my personal opinion, most items are super ugly. Like the colors, the logo, especially the collabs all seem super basic and ugly but that's just me 😂

Like that Mickey t-shirt is... whatever the opposite of high fashion is. It looks like something you'd see at a flea market, but in a bad way. I went back to 13:03 and am staring at the shirt to try to make it look good. If you removed the logo/Mickey/belt thing it would be an okay off-white shirt. Shoulder seam is kinda low so it maybe doesn't fit the model very well?
