Lollipop Posse Lacquer August 2018 Year of Tarot and Limited Edition Swatches and Review

Image
Lollipop Posse Lacquer  has just launched her August 2018 Limited Edition polish and two new shades in the Year of Tarot  series! Also, there is a massive back to school sale that includes free polish with purchase and discounts on previous shades! Let's have a look! *sent by the maker for photography and review* Lollipop Posse Lacquer The Queen of Swords  is a magenta jelly with aqua-to-indigo multichrome aurora microflakes, red-to-green iridescent multichrome flakes, and holo microflakes. I wore it in three thin coats but two will do. It has a nice, quick dry time and SO much sparkle! The Queen of Swords represents the mature intellect of a learned woman. She reflects the intellect's ability to judge impartially; she uses factual information to make her decisions. She needs to know the who, what, how, why, when, etc. to help her make sense of her environment and to better understand others. The Queen of Swords is a sign that it is time for you to be independent in thought and...

Cupcake Polish Radioactive Collection Swatches and Review Part 1

Image
Cupcake Polish has two new releases coming this Monday, August 13 . I have the Radioactive Collection  to show you and the other is a trio of pastel thermals called the Ice Cream Trio . The Radioactive Collection  takes shimmery and glowing to a whole new level with amazing effect pigments. These will be available at 8PM CDT  and each is priced at $13 . Let's get started with half the collection today! *sent by the maker for photography and review* Cupcake Polish Atomic  is a royal purple jelly with magenta-to-green multichrome iridescent flakes. This one has a ton of reflectivity and shift. I wore it in three thin coats for maximum depth and it had a good dry time. A single layer of top coat will smooth it. Cupcake Polish Beta  is a steel gray linear holo with multichrome iridescent flakes. This has about as holo a punch as you can get and due to the flakes, does not disappoint in the shade, either! I love polishes that have equal amounts of sparkle in different light. I wore it i...

The Polish Palette July 2018 Swatches and Review

Image
There is a new collaboration coming up between two of my favorite brands! Rogue Lacquer  and Tonic Nail Polish  have joined forces to create a quarterly quartet based off a set color palette. The inaugural Polish Palette July 2018  takes its inspiration from a desert-like set of hues and each shade is named after a famous desert. The set is priced at a discounted $40 , and the individual shades may or may not be offered individually much later in the makers' stores at higher prices. Buy now to be sure you get them for a deal! The launch is July 1 in the Tonic Nail Polish  store and it will be a pre-order until July 7.  Let's have a look! *sent by the makers for photography and review* Here is the colorway that inspired this first set: Rogue Lacquer Gobi  is an emerald green jelly foil with scattered holo shimmer and purple-to-gold multichrome flakes. I wore it in three thin coats, but two will do. It dries pretty quickly. It is not quite self-leveling so I recommend thinner coa...
