Happy New Year's Eve!

Happy New Year's Eve! Hope you all had/are having a great day/night! For my NYE mani I wanted a super blingy black and gold look. I started with Colors by Llarowe Vincent, a black creme. I then painted half my nail with Enchanted Polish Flashing Lights, a gold holo microglitter, and half with Lumina Lacquer The Snow King, a mix of various gold, silver, and pinky purple glitters. Super sparkly, exactly like I wanted! Take a look:

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 ;)

Lacquer Queen World War Cancer

Hello all, and Happy December! I am sooo excited to start showing off Christmas manis like no one's business, but before that, I have a very special polish to share with you today. Tammy from Lacquer Queen Polish has teamed up with Brianna from World War Cancer Mission to help show support and raise awareness for childhood cancer by creating a beautiful polish, of which 50% of proceeds will be donated toward creating "Battle Boxes" to cheer kids with cancer up and help them battle their disease. World War Cancer is a lovely pale gold shimmery holo (as gold is the color for childhood cancer). Formula and coverage was great - two coats are shown here. Take a look!

Enchanted Polish Go West Collection

Hello friends! Today I have the Enchanted Polish Go West collection to share with you!

left to right, up to down: Dark Fantasy, Good Life, Flashing Lights, Amazing

First up is Amazing, a silvery gold flake glitter with faint holo shimmer. This one is absolutely stunning in person - so shiny! I layered two coats over two coats of Orly Luxe here, though i imagine with patience and enough coats it could reach opacity.

 Next up is Dark Fantasy, a deep blue-ish purple holo with a green flash. This is two coats here. So pretty!

Next is Flashing Lights, a blingtastic gold holo microglitter. Again, this one probably could be opaque on its own with enough coats, but here I layered two coats over two coats of Zoya Ziv. This is soooo sparkly - I am in love with this one!

Last up is Good Life, a warm gold chrome holo with a bit of an orange-y shift in the right angle/lighting. I did not expect to like this one, but it is quite lovely! Two coats here.

Overall, was very pleased with this collection! I especially love the two glitters (and kind of want to wear them all the time) - which is odd, because I have never been much of a gold polish person! But I am big on sparkle and shine, and there is plenty of that in these pretties :)
