MONTHLY MANICURE GIVEAWAY | JUNE 2023 RESULTS

Misheard Lyric- Really love your beaches want to shake your tree. Steve Miller Band - The Joker.

PPU - Pahlish Catbus

Based on the misheard lyric "Starbucks Lovers" in Taylor Swift's song Blank Space, here is my green and white coffee mani using two past PPU purchases, Apipla Smudge Free Top Coat and Glisten and Glow Quick Dry Top Coat.

In Mr Jones by Counting Crows I thought he said flamingo dancer but alas it is "flamenco" . I used Cuticula Mic Drop base and Limitless top coat from PPU. The polish is WFL Mind Your Own Biscuits and Life will be Gravy

Polishes used- Atomic polish sour apple rings and cuticula gummy bears mic drop. Theme- mine isn't so much as "misheard" as "my husband is a weirdo" lyrics lol. When I first met him, he used to sing "scoop the cat box, scoop the cat box, the kitties really like it" instead of the chorus to Rock the casbah by the clash lol. I didn't really know the song, and I thought that was how it went and thought it was really weird for a song to be written about scooping a cat box. So my nails are happy kitties lol

Fergie F

Misheard Lyric - "It doesn't make a difference if we're naked or not". Which the correct lyric from Bon Jovi’s ‘Livin’ On A Prayer’ is “It doesn’t make a difference if we make it or not”.

Polish- Pink, Pink Sugar by Lumen Nails

Jessica R

Based off of the GREAT Janis Joplin’s “Me & Bobby McGee.”

Actual Lyrics are: “Windshield wipers slappin’ time, I was holdin’ Bobby’s hand in mine.” I hear: “Windshield wipers, turpentine…”

Used Lumen Pink Pink Sugar until I realized that I needed to jazz it up just a little to represent Janis’ fun, eclectic beauty. So, I added Phoenix Cotton Ice. Both from PPU May ‘23. Also, big shout out to Lumen for switching to a wide paddle brush—game changer for me!

Laurel S

Inspired by the actual lyric "excuse me while I kiss the sky" Great Lakes Lacquer Come Again (March 2023)

Melissa H

Song: Do Not Disturb

Misheard Lyrics: Do like the stars

Originally Lyrics: Do Not Disturb

Jan23 PPU Strike a Pose-idon

Jan 23 PPU Blacksmith to the gods (middle and pinky)

In my head I decided to combine both the lyric and misheard lyric. Which in my mind made it dark and moody with ever changing skys with sparks of stars. (redo forgot pic last time)

Anya B

"Sherry don't like it. Rock the cat box." (The Clash - Rock the Casbah)

Fancy Gloss - Just Be Happy

Polish Pickup December 2020

Megan D

Using Stella Chroma Oh Crikey

My husband sings total eclipse of my fart instead of my heart. Our daughter thought those were song lyrics and sung it out loud when the solar eclipse was a big thing a couple years back

Brittany R

I was inspired by Jason Waterfalls (chasing waterfalls). I've never done waterfall nails before, and I'm kind of obsessed now.

PPU polishes used: Cadillacquer- lord of the sea, and Whatcha- frozen orchid

Bec F

Black widow by Iggy Azalea but I hear (as if using a baby talk voice) "like a black widdle, baby"

Used Fair Maiden 'Dilly dahlia'

Samara H

Fair Maiden - Limey Bean

Inspired by “I Like Big Butts and a can of lime” (I like big butts and a cannot lie) - Baby Got Back by Sir Mix A Lot

Leah M

I just found out the original lyrics to Little Richard’s “Tutti Frutti” were “Tutti frutti, good booty” but they changed it to “Tutti frutti, oh rootie” to be more family friendly. But now when I hear the song I can’t unhear “good booty.”

This mani is Dany Vianna’s Pebble Road (PPU May 23) over Fancy Gloss Bunny.

Nicole A

I went with Closer by the Chainsmokers… my lyrics:

So, baby, pull me closer

In the back seat of your Rover

That I know you can't afford

By that tattoo on your shoulder

Pull the sheets right off the corner

Of that mattress that you stole

From your roommate back in Boulder

We ain't ever getting over

But instead of by that tattoo is bite, and instead of getting over is getting older. Not a big change but yeah haha

I used Anchors and Heart Lacquer - Mermaid tears base coat

Ethereal - Sakura

DRK - Prince

Cutícula - QDTP

Amanda B

Inspo: Blood, Sweat, and Tears by BTS

Misheard lyrics: MONEY MONEY MONEY

Actual lyrics: Want it more and more and more (but in Korean lol)

First I decided gold would be good for the misheard lyrics "money" theme. Then I figured purple would be a good pairing to make it look regal. THEN I remembered that purple is the BTS fandom color, so everything is really on theme to the inspo lol

Thumb/ring: made a decal using Baroness X fluid art polish in Vermeil and Specter, and Holo Taco - Glamethyst and Indigo Away

Index: Holo Taco - Glamethyst

Middle: Wildflower - Pretty Puddle

Pinky: Baroness X - Vermeil

Kitty L

Cupcake bathhouse.

Song prince "raspberry beret/raspberry mermaid"

Patricia V

Treo - Exhilaration. Musical nails because English is my second language and I pretty much mishear all songs.

Kayla C

When I was little a favorite giggle was to change the words of “achy breaky heart” to “achy breaky fart” soo here are some hearts, not farts! To celebrate lol

I’m using the last PPU, GLL- “documentaries till 4am” here

Alyson B

Statler Brothers' Original lyrics "Counting flowers off the wall. That don't bother me at all"

Misheard lyrics "Eating flowers off the wall. That don't bother me at all"

Kathleen & Co- Winter's Dusk

Vibrant Vinyls base & top coat in Chocolate

Sarah S

Fair maiden sweet tooth

Teri B

The most common misheard lyric that comes to mind (and considering that several makers used T-Swift as inspiration, her lyrics must be misheard often enough, lol) for me is “All the lonely Starbucks lovers” instead of “Got a long list of ex lovers”. Figured this mani went with that theme, lol.

Polish is Pahlish’s Delivery by Broomstick from September 2021’s PPU.

Si Y

Misheard Lyrics: Mr Blue Sky-y

Correct Lyrics: Please turn me over

from 'Mr Blue Sky' by Electric Light Orchestra

Used Wildflower Lacquer Arctic Passage

Liz R
