Bee's Knees Lacquer 1/11 Flakies and new scents release

PRESS SAMPLES
Hello readers! If you sense some frustration from me please know it's not these products, I truly enjoyed them all. My post was just one tiny step away from being published when it was all erased because my computer forgets the internet among other problems. I was originally pretty chatty but now my spirit is a bit crushed for the moment. Bee's Knees has sent me 3 polishes and 2 of 5 new scents in wax form to review. These flakies have been one of my favorite polish components for years and combined with "pee" shimmers it's my top favorite finish so I was thrilled with the last collection and this one.
What? 3 new irridescent flakie filled polishes and 5 new scents available in wax,scroap,soap,and meringues(a new product).

When? 1/11/18 at 12 pm EST

Polishes shown in glossy and satin topcoat. Natural, T5 bulbs, and sunlight when possible.

THE THIRTEEN
$18
The Thirteen-a blackened blue loaded with OG UP and ghost flakes, the larger flakes that shift the same color as OG UP (red/gold/green).
This is a jelly based formula. It was almost totally opaque in 3 coats, for some it would be opaque in 2 and that would create a more teal like color. The viscosity is good, flakies lay down easily. No running or dragging, good dry time. Removal of these flakies is a little bit of work, they like to stick to skin and nails.  Video here in natural light.

T5 full spectrum bulbs, as close to sunlight as I believe
possible in artificial light.

MANON  BLACKBEAK
$15
Manon Blackbeak-a deep red with ghost flakes, the larger flakes that shift the same color as OG UP.
 Unfortunately my camera would not capture this accurately on my nails but this bottle shot is accurate in my opinion, the others appear too bright. Again I used 3 coats with topcoat and had no trouble with application. The formula is good, stays where you put it, appropriate dry time, flakies lay down on their own. Mild scrubbing is required to get the flakies off skin and nails.
Video here, color accurate.

ABRAXOS
$15

Abraxos-inspired by Manon's wyvern, this is a charcoal polish with ghost flakes, the larger flakes that shift the same color as OG UP. This one is a cream formula so only 2 coats was required for full opacity. Not too thick or thin and nothing is required for the flakies to lay down flush.

CLOWNS ARE FUN

Clowns Are Fun-a fun combination of fruit loops and kettle corn.
I used one cube and it quickly filled up the back half of my house, about 500 square feet. My husband left and returned and could smell it in the whole house. I don't usually like either of these types of scents but this is really nice! As soon as I opened the package and took a whiff  I knew we had to buy some fruit loops or the cravings would engulf us lol. 4oz, $4.50

EASY BAKE COVEN

Easy Bake Coven-birthday cake mingles with butterscotch and bourbon. I'm not sure what note the bourbon has add, I detect no alcohol scent but everything else is spot on. This scent is light, at first it only filled the room it was in strongly. After we left and came back after a few hours It had filled the whole house even over the smell of tacos. 4oz, $4.50

These scents will also be released:
Electrokinesis for Beginners-coconut rice pudding blends with rose and cognac
Let's Dig for Treasure-an enticing mix of pineapple, peach, chocolate, rice flower, and red tea
