77 Lacquer My So Called Life
a black jelly base with a rainbow of UCC flakies, iridescent flakies, violet/gold shifting shimmer, orange shimmer and holo dust inspired by the characters of My So Called Life. The different colors represent everyone and how different they were.
100 cap

Two coats shown, formula was good. Great fall shade, I can imagine this with golden leaf outlines stamped on.






Blush Pink Panther
the first installment of our Pink Panther series! This is a planned 6 polish installment.
A whimsical rosy pink linear holo with small red holo glitters and varying sizes of iridescent shifting blue-purple-pink and yellow-orange-green glitters.
No cap

Two coats shown, no issues with formula and again, I cannot say enough about the brush! It is curved perfectly for my nails, super soft and I can just about paint a nail in one stroke with it and have very little if any clean up.






Chirality Polish Bad Wolf
inspired by Bad Wolf in Doctor Who. 'Bad Wolf' has an ivory base color with rose to gold color shifting shimmer, gold and rose shimmer, rose to gold color shifting micro flakes, gold micro flakes, and a soft white glow in the dark that's been left as a message to lead you here.
No cap

I wore three coats with topcoat, slightly sheer but buildable. No issues with formula. This polish picks up and transfers for stamping, but I didn't test opacity or glow effect.







Colors by Llarowe's Uptown Funk Pt. 2
a bright orchid with scattered holo and UP pigment plus Aurora green/red/gold shifting shimmer. Inspired by Bruno Mars.
No cap

The shift is great in this polish and I love the orchid hue. No issues with formula.







DRK Nails I Love Lucy
a white (warm) to light turquoise (cold) thermal polish filled with pink and blue sparkles inspired by Despicable Me. It's mixed with different kinds of flakies and shimmers to create this polish. It dries matte but I have used a glossy top coat. No issues with formula.
140 bottle cap






Ethereal Lacquer Curiouser and Curiouser
a medium grey with holographic flakies and pink shimmer, inspired by the white rabbits cozy home from Alice in Wonderland.
No cap

I love a grey with subtle contrasting shimmer. When I saw the pink/grey combo it reminded me of my childhood bedroom with a pink polka dot on grey design, so I recreated it with stamping.
No issues with formula.







Fancy Gloss Polish The Town's Dark Fate
a dark teal (cold) to turquoise (warm) with turquoise shimmer & holographic flakes inspired by Riverdale.
No cap

I found this to be more of a teal to forest green change, opaque in one coat. No issues with formula.






Femme Fatale Jane
a muted mustard crelly with turquoise shine, scattered holographic particles and holographic microflakes inspired by Stranger Things.
No cap.

Two coats shown, no issues with formula. Perfect fall shade which should arrive in time for November manis.






Girly Bits Checkmate
an antique oil rubbed bronze thermal that transitions to a bronze-gold when warm. It's filled with bronze and gold metallic micro-flakes, gold holographic micro-glitter, and copper-bronze-gold metallic colour shifting flakes. Inspired by wizard chess from Harry Potter.
75 cap

I wore two coats, but it was almost opaque in one. No issues with formula. The thermal shift seemed subtle until I shifted an entire nail and compared it to one that wasn't shifted, definitely different!






Grace-full Nail Polish Love is Lethal
inspired by DC’s Star Sapphire Carol Ferris. A deep hot pink linear holo with aurora shimmer that gives the pink flashes of red.
85 cap

Quite a punch of pink! If your favorite color is pink, you won't want to miss this! Two coats shown, no formula issues.






Great Lakes Lacquer To The King
a gleaming golden linear holographic featuring silver micro flake, copper microflake, holo microflake, and multichrome flake ranging from gold to bronze to silver inspired by Lord of the Rings.
No cap

Very reflective and sparkly, two coats shown, no formula issues.






Heather's Hues Go Away Before I Make You
inspired by Lapis Lazuli from Steven Universe. An ultramarine blue magnetic with a hint of indigo shimmer, purple and sapphire holo microglitter, holo flake, and iridescent and multichrome flake that shift from blue-violet/indigo/pink.
150 cap

Two coats shown, no issues with formula. I used an arc magnet from Lantern and Wren for this effect.
A 60x10x3mm bar magnet will be available as an option in the listing.






Lollipop Posse Lacquer Margo, This Time
inspired by Margo Hanson of the television show "The Magicians", and her transformation from being named Janet in the books to Margo in the television show. The show makes several funny comments and allusions to this situation throughout, insinuating that in previous timelines Margo was, in fact, Janet.

a black crelly base packed full of gold flakes, red/green/gold color shifting iridescent flakes, red/green shifting Aurora pigment, and scattered holographic particles.
No cap

Two coats shown, no issues with formula. It is certainly packed with flakes, I think one coat would do in a pinch.






Mckfresh Nail Attire Toodle-e-oo, I'll Shift for You
a Black (cold) to Clear (warm) thermal, which is packed with shifting iridescent glitter, red and chartreuse glitters and holo dust. Based on Oblina from Ahh!! Real Monsters, this polish shifts just changes just like the inspiration.
100 cap

What a great shade for fall! Reminds me of the amber sky and ground covered in leaves. Two coats shown, no formula issues.







Ms Sparkle Branch
a black based glitterbomb with gun metal and black micro glitters, black shreds and holo microflakies inspired by Trolls.
No cap

Two coats shown, formula a little on the thick side but no issues.






My Indie Polish Lip’s Blue Eyes
a rich medium grey base with holographic pigments, blue shimmer and shift, and blue flakies inspired by Shameless. Opaque in 2-3 coats. 15 ml
No cap

Two coats shown, no issues with formula. Loving the vibrant blue shimmer on top of the slate base, it really reminds me of the different hues in blue eyes.






POP Polish Good Night
a navy base with a blue & purple shifting sparkle, and holographic blue moons, silver stars, and hot pink harlequin (diamond) shapes inspired by Harley Quinn.
No cap

Love some chunky shaped glitter. It has been a long while since I have worn one. This polish kept surprising me with each stroke of the brush, something new each time...and no digging/fishing!
No formula issues.






Quixotic Polish Down to Clown
a deep burgundy base loaded with a rainbow of iridescent flakes and scattered with a light holo touch inspired by Parks & Recreation.
No cap

Love a squishy candy-like jelly, shown in two coats, no issues with formula. Love a vampy red like this, especially for fall/winter.






Rogue Lacquer "We Do This Together
a gray with fiery red shimmer, holo and red orange pink color shifting flakes inspired by Justice League.
No cap

Looks like a smokescreen over the embers of a crackling fire, love it! Two coats shown, no formula issues






Sayuri Nail Lacquer The Rough Stone Within
a holographic medium purple with blue undertones. Filled with sparks of aqua, a mixture of holo and iridescent blue microglitters and blue/purple colour shifting flakes inspired by Studio Ghibli.
130 cap

Purple or blue? Purple or blue? Periwinkle! Two coats shown, no issues with formula.






Stella Chroma Queen Selyse
an emerald green like the color of house Baratheon with a strong linear holo and gold shimmer. It’s everything we wish Queen Selyse was. Strong. Bright. Shiny. Eye catching. Not dull, weak, easily swayed, and a maker of horrible decisions.
No Cap

I wore two coats and formula had no issues. I love how vibrant this green is!






Turtle Tootsie Polishes Loyal to the Throne
a brown holo polish with silver shimmer and gold holo flakies inspired by Marvel Superheroes.
No cap

Two coats shown, formula had no issues. I could totally see some spikey geometric, throne-looking, double stamping on this.
