Laquerlicious Witchful Thinking

Halloween is just around the corner so I'm trying to wear as many Halloween themed polishes as I can. Today I have a beautiful one from the brand, Laquerlicious. It's Witchful Thinking which is apart of their 2014 Halloween collection.

Witchful Thinking, which has the cutest name by the way, is an orange, purple, fuchsia, lavender, and black glitterbomb. It has both holo and metallic glitters. It's very pretty! I saw a gorgeous combo done by punchflavor on Instagram using both Witchful Thinking and Sinful Colors Enchanted, which I had, so I decided to recreate the look for myself.

I used two coats of Enchanted, an amazing dark purple creme that was opaque in two coats. I then did one coat of Witchful Thinking. It's so packed with glitter that there was no need for fishing, digging, and I didn't even have to turn the bottle upside down. The glitter came out no problem and application was a breeze. It dried rather smoothly so I only needed one coat of Rica Glossy Glam to make it completely smooth.

I absolutely love this combo! Witchful Thinking is on the beautiful, girly side but this mani is a bit edgy thanks to the dark purple creme that is Sinful Colors Enchanted. Witchful Thinking is still available in the Laquerlicious shop and I was able to find my bottle of Enchanted at my local Walgreens.

Laquerlicious Chills & Thrills

Today I have my most favorite Halloween polish that I have worn so far this year. Laquerlicious Chills & Thrills is not only a Halloween themed polish but it was also created for a great cause. It's another Polish For Pit Bulls collaboration between Michelle of Laquerlicious and The Em-purr-ium. You not only get the beautiful polish but also the cutest fob key chain, made personally by the The Em-purr-ium, and a baggie of extra glitters. All together, it costs $10 plus shipping and $5 from each sale will be donated to the Fresno Bully Rescue which benefits pit bulls. How awesome is that?! As a dog lover myself, I had to get it!

Chills & Thrills is a Halloween glitter bomb that contains all sorts of colors, shapes, and sizes of glitter in a golden shimmery base. The shapes include circles, squares, hexes, diamonds, stars, moons, triangles, and skulls. I just love it! It's absolutely perfect for Halloween and the shimmer, which is on the heavy side, is so amazing. I could stare at this beautiful polish all day!

I layered Chills & Thrills over LynBDesigns White Fang, a white creme. White Fang was streakier than I thought it would be and even at three coats it wasn't totally opaque. Still, it applied easily and dry time wasn't an issue. Chills & Thrills was a pleasure to work with. So much glitter came out with each dip of the brush. What you see is what one coat over White Fang. I topped it off with one coat of Rica Glossy Glam.

I adore how Chills & Thrills looks over white! The colors really pop and it kind of reminds me candy.

Here is a picture of the fob key chain, which is a wristlet too. Isn't it cute? I just love the candy corn colors! I can't wait to try it out.

I love Chills & Thrills! There's nothing better than having a gorgeous polish that happens to be benefiting a great cause. There's still plenty of bottles left up in the Laquerlicious shop but once sold out it will not be restocked.

Laquerlicious Gold Digger

Hi! It feels so good to be back to posting. I have such a gorgeous glitter to show you today. I wore it a while back layered over Sinful Colors Thimbleberry, shown in my previous post. It's from one of my favorite brands, Laquerlicious. As of right now, it's still available in the shop. Here is Gold Digger!

Gold Digger is a beautiful and sparkly gold glitter. It has both metallic and holographic glitters. At first I used it for an accent mani but I loved the gold so much over Sinful Colors Thimbleberry, that I decided to top the rest of my nails with it. I really loved the combination! It was really bold and eye catching. I feel like the two colors were made for each other. Gold Digger applied easily and had great glitter coverage in just one coat. I purposely made sure to use thin coats but according to the Laquerlicious store, Gold Digger can reach opacity in just two coats. How awesome is that?

If you're looking for an awesome gold glitter, Gold Digger is a perfect choice! It's gorgeous and has such a pretty sparkle to it. I've already tried it over another color, which I'll  be posting another time. Thank you for stopping by!

Laquerlicious Silver Lining

Hey! I am so looking forward to tonight. I was supposed to work tonight but my plans totally changed. My dad surprised me  with LA Kings tickets for the game tonight! I am so flipping excited! I cannot wait. I've been to games before but never during the playoffs. To know that they're playing for the actual Stanley Cup in this last series makes it even more special. Luckily I was able to get someone to cover my shift. Like there was any way I would be missing this game!

Anyway, I have another Laquerlicious glitter from the recent order I made. I wore it almost two weeks ago. Here's Silver Lining!

Silver Lining is a silver holographic and metallic glitter. It is stunning and so sparkly! As you can see, I used it for an accent nail. What you see is just one coat over OPI A Grape Fit. It's a dense glitter but I'm sure I could have gotten away with a thinner coat. I don't know why I waited so long to try out an accent nail. It's a great way to add something special to the mani but without making it look overwhelming. Silver Lining was a bit thick but it was easy to use and didn't give me any problems. It didn't dry super gritty so I only needed one coat of Rica Glossy Glam.

Silver Lining is a fantastic silver glitter! It's gorgeous and as far as my collection is concerned, it's pretty unique too. I don't have anything like it. I have another one from Laquerlicious, a gold one, that I'll be showing very soon.

I'm planning to paint my nails for the game but I won't be posting that until another day. Fingers crossed that they win tonight! Thank you for stopping by and I hope your day is a great one!

Laquerlicious I Can See Clearly Now

Hey! I hope you're all enjoying your weekend. I have to run some errands today, nothing too exciting, and then I'm off to work later tonight. Unfortunately my LA Kings lost their game last night but now I'm excited to see the last game tomorrow.

I recently made an order from Laquerlicious and bought six of the new glitter toppers. Today I have the first one, I Can See Clearly Now.

I Can See Clearly Now is a super pretty glitter topper. It contains small silver holographic circles, iridescent glitters, as well as transparent glitters in what looks like green, blue, and purple. It is one of those polishes that can be layered over several colors and each time you will get a different look. I decided to use it over Hit Polish Pewter Goblet, since I love using glitters over grey polishes. I love how it turned out! It reminded me of rainy but beautiful days. It seemed fitting because it was gloomy outside when I put it on and when I went to take pictures. I did manage to get a picture in the sun, but I think the first two pictures show off the glitter better.

I'm a huge fan of I Can See Clearly Now! It's a gorgeous glitter and to me, it's unique. I am eager to try it over others color to see how it will look. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great day.

Laquerlicious Sip Of Summer

So I found out over the weekend that my sister who is expecting, is having a boy! I am so excited! I've been hoping she was going to have a boy from the beginning. Now I can officially start buying lots of cute stuff! Also, is there anyone who is keeping up with the hockey playoffs? I've been on the edge of my seat watching my LA Kings play against the San Jose Sharks. I'm hoping they'll be able to win the last and final Game 7 in the first series tonight. Fingers crossed!

Anyhow, today I have the last of the three new glitters from Laquerlicious. Here is Sip of Summer!

Sip of Summer is a super fun and cute matte glitter topper. It's a mix of pastel hex glitter, star glitter, and awesome triangle glitter! Some of the colors include blue, pink, purple, green, yellow, and white. Again, I let my bottle sit upside down for a bit before applying. I've been doing this out of habit for almost all glitters lately because it's super helpful. I used one coat of Sip of Summer over two coats of Barielle Swizzle Stix. I was going to add a second coat to just my pinky nail but I totally forgot to do that. I smudged a few of my nails when they were wet but it was all good after it dried. I topped everything off with a coat of Rica Glossy Glam.

I really love Sip of Summer! It's a fun glitter that will make any mani stand out. I couldn't stop staring at my nails when wearing it. It made me feel all happy inside.

Laquerlicious Blowin' Bubbles

I hope you all had a great Easter. Mine was very laid back but I didn't mind one bit since I worked a lot the week of and a break was more than welcome. I'm finally back today with another pretty glitter from the indie brand, Laquerlicious. It's Blowin' Bubbles, the second of the three new glitters I mentioned in a few posts back. After doing a nail wheel test swatch of it over Zoya Carter, I fell in love with the combo and had to do a full mani of it. Here it is!

Blowin' Bubbles is an super girly and sweet glitter topper. There are circle glitters, but they're "donut" glitters. I've never had a polish with them before but I like it! It's a fun shape. There's also silver, blue, and black stars, silver holographic glitter, pastel hexes, super tiny circle glitter, and neon pink glitters. I just love this polish!! It's so pretty and I especially love how it looks over Carter. At first I thought about using it over a lighter base but I'm glad I went with a darker one. It shows how versatile this glitter is. Application with Blowin' Bubbles was a breeze! I let my bottle sit upside down for a bit and it really did help because so much glitter came out. All I needed was one coat. Honestly though, I mainly turned it upside down for the circles. I'm sure I would have gotten great results regardless.

If you've never tried Laquerlicious before, you are definitely missing out! Michelle's glitter bombs are worth checking out but if you're not into glitter, don't worry. She's got something for just about everyone. I have so many I need to wear and show here.

Here's the link if you're interested!

Laquerlicious Crazy Daisies

Laquerlicious, along with Candy Lacquer, has become one of my favorite indies to date. Michelle, the creator, makes awesome glitter bombs. When I saw that she listed three new glitters in her shop, I just had to have them. Today I have one of them for you. Here is Crazy Daisies!

It is crazy indeed, but in the best way possible! It's a mixture of green, yellow, and pink neon flowers, hearts, pastel hexes, stars, iridescent glitter, and black and white triangles. Yes, triangle glitter! It's my first polish with them and I am loving it. This polish is so fun and loud. I have literally nothing like it.

I layered one coat over one coat of Barielle Swizzle Stix, which is an awesome sky blue crelly if you're ever looking for one. To help with my application of Crazy Daisies, I left my bottle sitting upside down for a while before using it. It definitely helped a lot! I was able to get a lot of triangles out, as well as flowers, though the majority of them are on my right hand. The base itself was a tad thick but when you have a glitter bomb like this, it's to be expected and therefore it didn't phase me. On a few nails, I was a little too heavy with my application and I put it on too thick, so it took a little longer to dry than I would have liked but totally my fault and not the polish. I topped it off with my Rica Glossy Glam top coat. I used about two coats to make it completely smooth.

This picture was taken in my room. 

Because it's too beautiful not to share, here's Swizzle Stix by itself! Like I said, I just used one coat. I didn't feel the need for a second but I read reviews where others needed 2-3 coats. I guess it depends. Either way, it applied like a dream and the drying time wasn't too shabby either. If you want to try out Barielle polishes, I recommend this being one of them!

So, I love Crazy Daisies! It's a super fun color that is perfect for when you want something loud and crazy on your nails. I'm curious to see how it will look over other colors now. It's available in the shop right now for just $7.

Laquerlicious Twinkling Lights

Today I have a super gorgeous polish to share with you! I'm currently wearing it as we speak and I had all intentions to wear it before the Christmas season was over, but life got in the way. Home Alone was playing while I painted my nails and it actually made me feel like the holiday season was still here, so to me it's still seasonal appropriate. Anyway, enough of my rambling, here is Laquerlicious Twinkling Lights!

Twinkling Lights marks the first time I am wearing a Laquerlicious and there's no better way than to start with a bang! It's a shimmery goldish base with gold and silver glitter in various shapes and sizes, as well as tiny multicolored glitter. Like I said, it is so gorgeous and stunning! It really does twinkle. I saw swatches online and I knew I just had to have it. As far as I know it's very unique too. It was a little thick but not nearly as thick as other polishes I've used and I had no trouble whatsoever in application. It was also opaque enough that I didn't have to use a base for it. Two coats gave perfect coverage. It didn't dry completely smooth but it wasn't very gritty either. I just used two coats of top coat and all was good.

I'm so happy with Twinkling Lights! It's beautiful, unique, and one of my favorite Christmas polishes to date. What I love most is that it can easily be worn anytime of the year, especially on a day where you feel like wearing something sparkly.

It's on sale right now at Laquerlicious for just $5! I don't know how many are left in stock, so go and get yourself a bottle! You won't regret it.
