Lolita Lacquer ~ Dia De Los Muertos Duo

 Hello nail friends :) Tonight I bring you another new to me indie polish! Mira, the owner/creator of Lolita Lacquer sent me these few things to review. The polish duo will be available on October 9th! Omg how cute is that pumpkin?!?! So lets get right to it! The names of the polishes were on the bottom of the bottle but one popped off and for picture purposes I thought it was neat on the cap!

 

 

First up is Horchata. I am not Spanish so I had to look this up (sorry!!). Horchata is a warm creamy drink. This polish is a good fit to its name judging by the pics I saw on google. It is a bright white crème polish with a ton of fine gold shimmer. I die! I am such a sucker for shimmer! And when it is added to a nice crème formula its even better! A total winner! Its for Halloween but this would be gorgeous at Christmas time and for anyone getting married!!!!! Love it :) I used 2 medium coats and a glossy top coat. Formula was smooth and opaque. I did have trouble getting the shimmer to show up in pics so there are quite a few pics so you can get the idea! :)

 

There's that shimmer!

This pic was taken in sunlight instead of my light box. You could kinda see the shimmer here.

 

 

The second half of the Dia de Los Muertos duo is called Festival. This is a sheer black polish with multiple colored and sized, hex and square glitters. The polish built up nicely and was totally opaque in 3 thin coats. No glitter fishing required. I didn't even need to flip it upside down or anything! Great polishes with no complaints at all.

I also got this adorable Candy Corn Jack O'Lantern mani bomb! It smelled so sweet and yummy! And it had a good strong fizz for at least 30 seconds. That may not seem like much but I have tried a few that barely lasted the length of an Instagram video. And the sizes were almost the exact same! The video I have is only 16 seconds because I wanted to get my hands in before the fizzing ended. I loved the amount of oils in this. You could see it very clearly at the top of the water through out the soaking. I soaked for about 10 minutes. I removed polish then immediately took a before pic. After the soak, I patted my hands dry then took an after pic. No lotions or oils or anything like that were added. As I type, an hour or so later, my hands are still soft and smell sooooo good! Check Out my results and video!!

Ingredients: citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, white clay, tapioca starch, sunflower oil, shea butter, fragrance oil, color (iron oxide), and isopropyl alcohol.

Before: Yuck!

 

After: Much better!!:)

 

 

 

Definitely an indie to check into!! Great quality and prices!! Mira offers stamping plates and stamper refill heads in her shop as well! Links below! Which polish did you like from this duo?

Creative Cuticles Nail Polish ~ Creepy Cocktails Collection

Hello! I am late posting this, but if you follow my IG then you have already seen a few of these pics. These 3 polishes make up the Creepy Cocktails collection which is from Creative Cuticles Nail Polish. The trio will be released on October 1st. Kayla sent these along with her Fall Jelly Trio (swatched here) for me to swatch so I have been sitting on these little bottles of liquid gold for a while. I am loving them all and I'm sure you will as well.

 

First we have O Negative, Please. This is 2 amazingly perfect coats with top coat. If I polished a little thicker I could have just used 1 coat. This is such a sexy deep red. I felt so bad ass wearing it!

For the stamping I used SinfulColors Black On Black and Winstonia plate w108.

Here I matted it using Pure Ice matte top coat. Ring is from Claire's.

This one is Witches Brew. It has a cross between a crème and a crelly formula. Really smooth application. 2 coats plus top coat.

For the stamping I used SinfulColors Black On Black and Winstonia plate w116.

Matted using Pure Ice matte top coat.

 

 

Ooze On The Rocks. This is a slime green crelly polish. Usually that would be weird but its for Halloween so its totally fitting! This is a spot on match for the ooze in the Ninja Turtles Secret Of The Ooze. (If you like that stuff like I do lol). This crelly has a wonderful formula which (for me) is hard to find in a crelly. Kayla does them so very well. This is 3 this coats with top coat.

I am SUPER happy with this trio. I will be buying these in full size asap!! And maybe a back up of O Negative, Please! Make sure you are following Kayla everywhere for updates, sales, and whatever else! Links below!! Which do you like best?
