Daveen Lacquer: Uncanny

Uncanny is so much more stunning than I anticipated!! It is described as a holographic light greyish purple base with large particle red/orange/golden green shifting shimmer. I'm wearing two coats with KBShimmer Clearly On Top topcoat.

Daveen Lacquer: Astral

I got Astral back in November 2020, when Daveen first launched. I was excited to get to wear it finally, (full-time career, part-time student, swatcher life!) and thought I'd share some pictures! Daveen polishes are handmade in Michigan by Felecia, and are 5 free. All of their polishes do not contain: toluene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate, camphor, or formaldehyde resin.

I love the high contrast shimmer! It shifts from gold to green and the grapey base is so yummy. The polish seems to glow so much and is such a complex polish. I'm wearing two coats in the photos, topped with KBShimmer Clearly On Top topcoat.

The formula was buttery and so easy to apply. I love the 15ml cube bottles, the holographic label, and the brush! I have spoken with Daveen's owner, Felecia, a few times and she is a delight to chat with!

Daveen Lacquer: Night Lights

I got Night Lights back in November 2020, when Daveen first launched. I was excited to get to wear it finally, (swatcher life!) and thought I'd share some pictures and my thoughts on the brand. Their polishes are handmade in Michigan by Felecia. The brand is inspired by and named after her late mother, Daveen.
Daveen polishes are 5 free, this means all of their polishes are free of the following five ingredients: toluene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate, camphor, and formaldehyde resin.


I love the contrast between the magenta/gold flakes and the grapey base shade, and when the flakes shift it is magnificent! The flakes seem to glow and the edges show the grapey base shade. Such a beautifully complex polish. I'm wearing two coats in the photos, topped with KBShimmer Clearly On Top topcoat.

Daveen Lacquer: Blood Oath


I got this polish, Astral and Instant Karma in November last year when Daveen first opened. I just got to wear it last week and thought I'd share some pictures and my thoughts on this new brand, Daveen! The polishes are handmade in Michigan by Felecia. The brand is inspired by and named after her late mother, Daveen.

Blood Oath has a dark cherry base with a red-gold shimmer and subtle green shift which looks orangey/coppery. I wish I could capture the depth of this polish, it looks like it's bottomless. The way the center glows and the edges are darkened drew me to this polish!

I have spoken with Daveen's owner, Felecia, a few times now and she is a delight to chat with! I had originally had a concern about the shipping packaging, which I asked her about. She quickly resolved the issue and as a gesture of good faith, she sent a replacement to me! It wasn't necessary, but she really cares a lot about taking care of her customers and being transparent. I would definitely purchase again from her company.
