A Couple Cadillacquer Gems

Pin It

These are the other Cadillacquer polishes I got when I hauled the Breaking Bad Collection a few months ago.

Cadillacquer 9 Crimes

9 Crimes is a muted slate blue/purple gray glass fleck shimmer with matte white hex and square glitter. It's a bit different than I expected based on swatches I'd seen, but I'm feeling it. I applied 2-3 coats for full coverage.

Cadillacquer Now and Then

Now and Then (favourite girl's coming of age film FYI, oh and the Hairy Bird too!) is a white/palest purple crelly with purple & white flake shimmer and purple hex glitter. Yum! I applied 3 coats which made it a little too thick, so next time I'll stick with two generous coats.

Cadillacquer Slice of Life

Slice of Life is a medium orange based red with glass fleck shimmer. The coverage was pretty decent for a red - I think this was two coats. I'm a real sucker for red lacquers!

Cadillacquer is available here and at various e-stockists.

Femme Fatale Wolfsbane

Howl...owl...owl...

Femme Fatale Wolfsbane

Wolfsbane is a navy jelly containing silver and red hexes as well as the odd silver moon!!! I applied one coar over Girly Bits Cu Blue. It's thick and gluggy thanks to all the glitter but some Seche Vite evened everything out nicely.

polished by KPT Thermal Swatches

Pin It

I bought a few polished by KPT colour changing polishes from Femme Fatale during their New Year Sale and they are just as amazing as I thought they'd be!!!

Polished by KPT Blue is Beautiful

Blue is Beautiful is a thermal colour-changing lacquer that shifts from an almost translucent grey/blue when warm to a medium blurple-blue when cold. It's got a jelly formula with translucent blue glitter and silver micro-glitter. I applied 3 medium coats for fuller coverage when warm - it is a little thick, but applies nicely.

Polished by KPT Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler is a purple/blue shimmer with blue flecks. When it's warm, it goes to a pale grey/purple and when cold it transitions back to the dark blue/purple. I applied two medium coats and top coat for shine.

Polished by KPT Ophelia's Love

Ophelia's Love is a greyish pale purple with pink-gold shimmer flecks that changes to a smokey dark purple when cool. The shimmer looks amazing against the dark base. This dries to a satin matte like the rest so I also added top coat for a glossy sheen!

Do you have any KPTs yet? Because I seriously recommend you get your paws on these beauties!!! I really want blood as thick as gold.

Saturday Spam: The Polish Well

Pin It

Exams are done - just have to wait for the results now....

The Polish Well makes some beautiful lacquers from time to time. I managed to place a pre-order for some of her newer shades recently and they did not disappoint! 

I only wish I'd bought full sized bottles instead of the minis!!!

The Polish Well Bad Boy

 Bad Boy is a muted slate/navy blue with multi-coloured micro-flake shimmer. Two coats.

The Polish Well Coraline

Coraline is a Halloween creation of teal blue jelly with green-blue micro-glitters and flakes. Two coats.

The Polish Well Evil Witch

Evil Witch is another Halloween colour, a forest green jelly with square and hex green glitter and coppery gold micro-glitter. Two coats.

 The Polish Well Love Dust

Love Dust is a real beauty, but man is this coral-pink a BITCH to photograph?! It is more pink than the photo suggests with gold micro-flakes and super fine pink/purple shimmer. This one is more sheer so it requires three coats.

The Polish Well Monster

 Monster is a close dupe for Butter London Two Fingered Salute. The oxidised copper green creme contains pale green shimmer and copper glitter flakes. Two coats.

The Polish Well Tonight

 Tonight is a warm grape jelly chock full with multi-coloured iridescent flakes. Two coats.

The Polish Well Wrath

Wrath is from the Seven Deadly Sins Collection; a red jelly, red and gold glitter. Three coats.

Hope everyone celebrating Thanksgiving & Hanukkah are enjoying their holidays and to everyone else: Happy Weekend!
