Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a fun weekend! :) My little one enjoyed the aquarium, but he was upset when he learned he couldn't actually go swimming in the tanks. Haha
Today I have Initial Lacquer's new collection for spring to show off! I will give a fair warning that my camera wasn't able to completely capture everything some of these polishes had to offer. :( But they are beautiful none the less, no matter what my camera thinks. :P
Press Sample
Above the Clouds has a light gray base with blue shimmer flash and mid density of holographic finish. All nails are 3 coats with top coat.
Love this polish! This is one of the many that my camera couldn't capture completely. :/ The holographic finish is pretty light, but it is visible I promise! If nothing else the blue shimmer is pretty obvious in my pictures, I hope! Overall formula was great and easy to work with. :)
Circle of Love is described as a light pink crelly base with with matte glitters and blue flakies. Shown is 3 coats with top coat.
Yet again my camera was not my friend for this polish. :( You can see in the photo below the blue flakies within the polish bottle. They were visible in person, even though my camera though otherwise. They add a nice pop to the softness of the polish overall. The formula was a little on the thicker side, though still easy to work with.
Last Day of Winter contains a variety of gray matter, white matte and holographic silver glitters in a light crelly blue base. These photos show 2 coats with top coat.
I hope the last day of winter is soon! :P I'm ready to break out some shorts and be able to go outside without a coat. ;) The formula of Last Day of Winter was on the thicker side, similar to Circle of Love. I do think the base is a little more opaque than it should be, so that the holographic glitters can really shine though. I do think the grays pop nicely with the blue base though. :)
Love Me Some S'mores has a chocolate brown base with a variety of red, gold and silver glitters. All nails are 2 coats with top coat.
Who doesn't like s'mores and this polish does remind me of a yummy s'more! Unfortunately this polish was very thick, to the point I needed to add thinner to use it. After a few drops of thinner, it was easy to work with and the glitters came out problem free. :)
Lucky Me! is described as a light mint crelly with gold shimmer base plus matte glitters. Shown is 2 coats with top coat.
Yet again, you have reached a polish my camera couldn't fully capture. >_< The gold shimmer is pretty visible in person, I think set against the mint base it was just too much for my camera to handle. :P Formula was easy to work with and it had a quick dry time. The gold shimmer with the base color is really something else, in a good way! ;)
Radiant contains various blue, purple, red and silver glitters in a clear base. All nails are 1 coat dabbed over 3 coats of Above the Clouds.
I always love seeing the blue glitter Initial Lacquer uses pop up in new polishes! :) Radiant is no different! Formula was a little on the thicker side, so I went with the dabbing technique for application. It still dried quickly and is super fun! :D
Viola contains various pink, blue, silver and purple glitters in a purple jelly base. These photos show 2 coats with coat.
Another polish I love! It has a great depth to it with the glitters and the purple jelly base is just gorgeous! You won't have any problem getting out glitters as you can see. :P The formula was great and easy to work with. :)
