Candy Lacquer Magical Reindeer Collection - Multichrome Glittery Madness!

Hello hello! Today I have the fabulous glittery multichrome Magical Reindeer collection from Candy Lacquer to share with you! These babies are indeed magic - take a look at the sparkly color-shifting perfection below!

look how sparkly - and you haven't even seen the color shift yet!

To avoid repeating myself, each swatch is two easily-applied coats and one coat of KB Shimmer Clearly On Top topcoat, and descriptions in quotes are from Candy Lacquer :)

First up is Reindeer Games, a "green/purple chameleon glitter with a bit of gold/green, blue/red and red/gold chameleons added, as well." To me it looks like a strong green to purple shift with a ton of gold sparkle. This one may have the strongest shift of all - it is mesmerizing! I am head over heels for this polish.

Next up is Fancy Prancer,"a mix of blue/red and green/purple chameleon and purple super holo glitters." This one mostly looks like a strong blue to reddish-purple shift to me, with a strong holo sparkle thrown in. Love love love!

Next up is Visions of Vixen, "a mix of green/purple, blue/red and red/gold chameleon glitters." This one is kind of hard to describe! It is kind of a plummy purple with green sparkle and a strong orange-y gold shift. So complex and pretty!

Next up is Flash Dancer, a "silver super holo, with some gold super holo and gold/green chameleon glitters." To me this comes off as a super in-your-face almost platinum silver with a hint of gold, but as you can see it can look more silver or gold depending on the lighting. So blingy! This looks like a great New Year's Eve polish to me.

Next up is Comet Chameleon, "a mix of all 4 chameleon glitters including red/gold, blue/red, green/purple and gold/green." A mix indeed! This one truly is a multi-glitter - so much going on it is hard to catch any shifting maybe, but all the more awesome for how many colors are thrown in! Love it. Kind of reminds me of the glitters from ye olde OPI Burlesque collection, or maybe Mad As A Hatter - aka, super awesomeness!

Last but certainly not least is Christmas Donner, "a mix of red/gold and gold/green chameleon and gold super holo glitters." This one looks like a mostly warm brownish copper glitter to me, with a gold shift in the right light. Another one of my faves - reminds me of Christmas candy for some reason - maybe toffee? So yummy!

I am so in love with this collection! Blogging multichromes typically takes so much work that I rarely am motivated to post even one, let alone a whole colletion of them - what with all the extra photos and angles needed to properly show the prettiness off and all. But these reindeer were just too magical for me to resist ;)

Enchanted Polish August, September, October 2014

Hello! Today I have Enchanted Polish August 2014, September 2014, and October 2014 to share with you! As you probably know, these polishes are special in that they are mysteries - you don't know what they look like until you get them! So if you haven't gotten yours yet and don't want to ruin it for yourself, I suggest you leave now (but come back later!).

no spoilers (but look at the pretty holo reflection on the counter!)

And now for the pretties!

left to right, up to down: September 2014, October 2014, August 2014

First up is August 2014, a magical green-y teal multichrome that shifts blue and purple. It is totally mesmerizing! Two coats here.

blue than the other (teal) fingers?

blurple-y purple shift

Next up is September 2014, a bright pink-ish red holo with pink shimmer. This is soooooo beautiful, I am in love! It also happens to be quite similar to Cranberry Cosmo, which is quite difficult to find these days - so if you've dreamed of CC, this would be a much easier to obtain, just as beautiful alternative! Two coats here.

Lastly is October 2014, a super dark blackened olive green holo with green-y gold shimmer. Very fall, very holo! Two coats here.

All such beauties! I love them all :) These polishes were a one-time preorder, but if you love them and want them, you should definitely be able to find them in the Facebook polish sale groups or Storenvy pretty easily (and for not too much either)!

Have a wonderful day! ♥ 

Enchanted Polish May, June, July 2014 - Swatches & Review

Hello friends! As I am sure most of you know, Enchanted Polish has been releasing monthly polishes for like a year and a half now, and since January they have been mystery polishes -- don't know what they look like til you get them! Today I will be reviewing May 2014, June 2014, and July 2014. Since they were mystery polishes and I know some people like to not see them til they receive them, I kept the first picture spoiler-free -- but if you don't want to see them, please leave now - I don't want to ruin the surprise for you!

... but if you love spoilers (like me) please read on ;)

and I just re-watched this episode tonight! what a koinky-dink.

 ...and to the pretties!

left to right, up to down: June 2014, May 2014, July 2014

First up is May 2014. May is a bright orange linear holo with pink shimmer. It leans a bit burnt orange on me, though due to the pink shimmer can be a bit peachier in the shade, which is when the shimmer is most visible. This will be a great fall color! Two coats shown here with no topcoat.

 Next up is June 2014. June is a warm purple linear holo multichrome that shifts pink and sometimes gold. I adore this polish, it is so pretty! The pink flash makes it especially glow-y and girly. Two easy coats, no topcoat, are shown below.

some gold-ish shift at the top of the nail and in the corner
of the bottle)

 Finally, we have July 2014. July is a cherry red linear holo with blue shimmer. This one is a touch creamier and less holo than the other two, but still very pretty! Feels a little more autumn-y than summer, like May, though. Two easy coats again, with no topcoat.

And that is that! June is the clear winner in my book, but that shouldn't be a surprise since it is a purple, lol. They are all gorgeous though! Definitely looking forward to using the others in the fall.

These polishes were a one-time preorder, but if you love them and want them, you should definitely be able to find them in the Facebook polish sale groups or Storenvy pretty easily (and for not too much either)!
