Literary Lacquers 84, Charing Cross Road and Sidewalk's End

***press sample***
 
 
More beautiful colors from Literary Lacquers ☼
 
As before, these holographic polishes are from the Community Collection. The series of 10 are blogger collaboration polishes. You can look at the varied collection & the collaborative minds behind each color here: Literary Lacquers
 
Application for both are as follows:
1 coat Nailtiques Formula 2
1 coat Essie Fill The Gap
3 coats Literary Lacquers polish
 
Let's begin with 84, Charing Cross Road. It is described as, "a sepia taupe subtle holographic nail polish loaded with silver glass fleck." As with all hand poured Indie Brands, slight batch variations occur and mine turned out quite mossy green. It has beautiful flashes of purple and gold. This is a perfect Autumn color.

Please to enjoy, Sidewalk's End, described as, " a semi-sheer grey holographic polish with multicolored glass fleck." This beauty has surprising blue/purple glass flecks throughout. It is beautiful indoors as well as outdoors.

The shop (located on Etsy) is long overdue for a price increase so if you love these colors, or all the others for that matter, I suggest you hop to it NOW! Go take a look. Her newest collection has some stunners ☼

***press sample***

My nails have finally grown out after months of splitting, breaking and flat out ornery behavior! I am pleased to show you a long over due manicure featuring a beautiful summer blue.

Literary Lacquers in Love You Forever is a medium blue crelly holographic polish from the Community Collection. The series of 10 are blogger collaboration polishes. You can look at the varied collection here: Literary Lacquers

For the inspiration behind this polish, please read the direct link to the polish where you can purchase it on Etsy for a very reasonable $10 for a 15ml bottle: Love You Forever

Application:
1 coat Nailtiques Formula 2
1 coat Essie Fill The Gap
3 coats Literary Lacquers Love You Forever

I adore Indie Brands and this polish did not disappoint. It flowed easily for coverage on my small nail beds and wore very well for 5 days until normal tip wear and slight dulling occurred. I could have extended the wear by using a top coat after a couple of days. I will be showing you a few others from this collection ☼

And I can't help myself...I must share with you the most adorable packaging I have ever seen. Not only is it earth friendly, but who doesn't love Washi tape?


expertly packed ☼
