LevelUP Lacquer ~ Polish Pickup January 2018

*Provided for review

Hey peeps! Tonight is going to be busy here! I have this post and another as well as videos for both! So let's get right to it. LevelUp Lacquer is returning again to Polish Pickup for January. The theme for Januarys inspiration is "Crystals & Gemstones". Ashley, along with 2 other makers, Crows Toes & Chirality, have each chosen 1 of the 5 Infinity stones from the Marvel Universe to use as inspiration. The one I have for you today is inspired by Aether. 

Infinite Realities has a sheer, ultra holographic base with black and red glitters in multiple shapes and sizes. This polish can be used as a topper but I suggest it by itself. It is just so busy that it needs nothing else! It is a glitter bomb so I suggest a peel off base coat for easier removal. I used 3 thinner coats for my swatch and 2 coats of top coat. It is a thirsty glitter so a good top coat is pretty important.

So? What do you think? I think it's phenomenal! SO. MUCH. SPARKLE. Totally captures the theme for the month. Polish Pickup will be open January 5th - 8th so make sure you set your alarms! These are the only days you can get this! Follow Polish Pickup on Facebook to keep up with all the brands participating. Have a good night y'all 💓

LevelUP Lacquer ~ Marvel Infinity Stones Collection

          Happy Mother's Day!! I hope you all had a wonderful day. It was nice here in CT. For my Mother's Day I am doing my favorite thing! Bringing beautiful nail polish to you <3  This last batch of polish that Ashley sent me has kept me drooling. Each polish is so unique. This collection has 4 of those pretties. Each polish is based on the Marvel Infinity Stones. These are the 4 out of 6 stones that have been revealed in the movies so far. Let's get right to it :)

          The first polish in this collection is Tesseract. It is a blue jelly polish with holo circles, blue metallic circles, holo shreds, and holo micro glitters. Such a great formula for a jelly polish as well! 3 thin coats with top coat.

The second Infinity Stone polish is called Mind Stone. I really like this one a lot. It is different. I don't own a single glitter that's even close to this color. It has yellow gold micro glitter, holo shreds, yellow micro glitter, and yellow gold circle glitters. 3 thin, perfectly smooth, coats with top coat for my swatch.

Aether is my FAVORITE! Like top 15 polishes ever! It speaks for itself. It's a blackened red polish with holo shreds, red holo glitters, and black glitters. A good red polish will always get me!! 3 thin, perfect coats with top coat.

I mean really! Did you ooohhh and aaaaahhhhh??? I did and will continue to every time I see this beauty. Lastly, and just as gorgeous, is Orb. Orb is a super glitter packed polish. It was actually a tiny bit thick but with a careful hand it laid out perfectly flat and smooth for me. It is full of iridescent squares and hexes, metallic purple hexes, holo shreds, and I'm sure more that I am missing! There is just so much to it. I used 2 careful coats plus top coat.
