Lumina Lacquer: Luck O' the Irish


I love a chunky glitter and green is one of my favorite colors so I absolutely could not pass up this green glitter bomb from Lumina Lacquer!
Luck O' The Irish has clovers, stars, gold coins, green coins, green hexes and micro glitter. A lot of those glitters are holo so there's a rainbow in the bottle too!
How perfect for St. Patrick's day, yes?

No fishing with this glitter at all; Lumina Lacquers are amazing like that. I wore one coat over Elevation Cuernos del Paine.

I hope your St. Pat's is awesome! Are you wearing green or did you get pinched!?

Sinful Shine: Wisp


I'm prepping to do some stamping and thought I'd do a quick review of Sinful Shine's white called Wisp. Its quite pigmented and gooey/thick so I wore two coats and topcoated it to smooth it out. Its not streaky but the brush is stiff and causes a striping effect where some of the bristles scrape against the nail and pick the polish up. With a better brush and a little thinner, I think this could possibly be the perfect white polish. I have to wonder how it would do for stamping - have you tried it with stamping?

Hot Pink Holographics!


Sparkles are a Girl's Best Friend
from Colors by Llarowe (CbL) is my favorite hot pink holo polish. Its a one coater. Its got a beautiful bendy rainbow. Its such a perfect shade of pink, a bright vibrant shade, almost berry but not quite - which has been impossible for me to find until this polish.

The flat brush allows for super easy control of where the polish lands and is fairly soft so there's no streaking. The formula is perfection and I've found that layering these CbL holos with Gelous, sandwich style, makes them last for nearly two weeks!

I wore the CbL for a few days and decided I wanted some..... GLITTAH!!!

Lumina Lacquer's Smooth Operator is the perfect topper for it. Its a hot pink holo glitter topcoat which happened to be nearly identical in color! Such a perfect color. Smooth Operator was very easy to apply and I LOVE glitter so I used two coats. This polish makes a good texture-like polish without topcoat, but I went for the gloss and topcoated it!

I love a good hot pink nail polish, especially when it sparkles in rainbow colors like these! What's your favorite holo polish color?
