Lumina Lacquer Be Mine, Chanson D'automne and I Want You

Happy Valentine's Day! While not all of these polishes are in the theme of Valentine's Day, two out of three are so I think it counts. ;) Lumina Lacquer's Blinded By Love collection was inspired by Third Eye Blind and how can you not loved something inspired by 90's music! :P And now you probably have one of their songs stuck in your head. ;)



Be Mine has various shapes and sizes of pink, red, gold, white and brown glitter in a clear base. I used 1 coats over 2 coats of Flower Cosmetics Eye Of The Tiger Lily with a top coat of Seche Vite.
I'm not normally a fan of polishes with butterflies, this polish is not overwhelmed by them and they work perfectly mixed in with the other glitters. I love how the white hearts stand out and this polish is just a fun mix for any time of the year!
1 coat of Be Mine also looks great over 3 coats of I Want You. ;)
Chanson D'automne is holographic orange, red, gold, and white circular and hex glitters in a clear base. I believe this polish was inspired by the poem Chanson D'automne by Paul Verlaine. I started with 3 coats of I Want You (see below) and added coats of Chanson D'automne all with a top coat of KBSHimmer Clearly On Top.
It was purely by accident that I ended up doing a pink polish over an orange base and an orange polish over a pink base. ;) Oh well, I'll go with it because I liked the outcome! Let's see what can I say about this polish, except for holy cow it's amazing!! Seriously, even if you don't like orange, buy it and watch your nails glow! ;)
I Want You is described as a opaque pink colored polish with micro glitter and purple/pink shimmer. All nails are 3 coats with a top coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri. Note: Under my lights this color looks much more neon than it is in normal lighting. 
The micro glitter in I Want You makes this polish have a subtle glowing effect and the smaller glitters randomly show up on a nail or two to mix it up. Even though it's pink, it's perfect for any time of the year you just want some bright, bubble gum pink nails. ;)
