Ever since I saw this demo video, I've been coveting the idea of "easy"curls (mainly because I have never been able to find my way around a curling iron- honestly, on a good day I manage a straight part, but doing my hair has never been my strong suit). <div>

Anyways, I was pretty psyched to hear about Nail Polish Canada's Miracurl giveaway- they'll be choosing three winners to announce on Christmas Day (a "Christmas Miracurl"… bahaha), so if you're as intrigued as I am, you better scoot over and check it out at <a href="http://www.nailpolishcanada.com/products/miracurl-by-babyliss.html">THIS LINK</a>! The giveaway is open to Canadian and US residents, and while you're over there, definitely check out their righteous selection of nail lacquer, too. They're pretty much the best nail polish e-tailers, ever. And they're CANADIAN, which almost makes me feel down right patriotic. And I'm Canadian, so we usually keep that sort of thing under wraps. You get the picture. Check it out. </div>

Are five photos too many for a red creme? Not when it's this red creme! This is Chanel's Dragon. Fitting name- this lacquer is hard to ignore. I wore this and loved it, especially for a Vaudeville-themed "speakeasy" night I attended a while back. This was probably the longest my nails have ever been, and I trimmed them down shortly after this manicure, but it was really fun to sport long, red nails for a couple days. Very retro and glamourous! </div>

Today I've got two lovely Deborah Lippmann lacquers to share with you; first up is Don't Tell Mama, a blackened emerald shimmer. I believe this was two coats. </div>

Secondly, I've got Supermodel, a gorgeous tangerine-red jelly. This was three coats, and it mostly covers visible nail line, but retains a lot of wonderful squishy jelly-ness.<br />

<br />
Of these two, I'm rather enamoured with the bright, clean tangerine red of Supermodel. Extremely attention-grabbing! And I can certainly recommend Don't Tell Mama if you're in the market for a good blackened shimmer.<br />
<br />
I picked these up a couple months ago during a big sale <a href="http://www.nailpolishcanada.com/categories/deborah-lippmann.html">Nail Polish Canada</a> had on Lippmann polishes- and if you're interested, you can still nab some of these pretties for about 50% off.

Sunny days were made for this lacquer (and not the other way around...).<br />
<br />
Jade Holografico polishes are available from both <a href="http://shop.llarowe.com/collections/jade/jade-holographic-collection">Llarowe</a> and <a href="http://www.ninjapolish.com/Jade-c-330/">Ninja Polish</a>. It's currently out of stock at Llarowe, but it is in stock at Ninja Polish- which is where I'm assuming you'll be heading after having seen these swatches.

You may recall my appreciation for the Layla Soft Touch line in my posts <a href="http://lacquertracker.blogspot.ca/2013/03/layla-soft-touch-stone.html">here</a> and <a href="http://lacquertracker.blogspot.ca/2012/12/layla-soft-touch-in-07-queen-bordeaux.html">here</a>. Well, it hasn't wavered with my latest experience with Layla's Soft Touch in Mudhattan; I'm still loving this smooth semi-matte nail finish! Mudhattan is, as you might guess, the colour of mud. More particularly, it's the dusty taupe brown of dried mud. And it's also got the coolest red micro shimmer- seriously, click the pictures to make them bigger and scope it out! </div>

Very cool. This manages to feel chic and edgy at the same time. I can't recall if I bought this particular bottle through <a href="http://www.nailpolishcanada.com/">Nail Polish Canada</a> or <a href="http://www.ninjapolish.com/home.php">Ninja Polish</a>, but I can vouch for both of them being fantastic retailers!<br />

Godiva is a light sandy beige with lots of silver sparkles- these really are best witnessed in person in order to appreciate how much sparkle these pack. They especially come to life in the sunlight. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Harem was released earlier this year and is a lovely blue-based pink creme; it's not quite your standard pastel pink- it has much more of a lavender hue to it. As per usual, the formula was great, barely needing two coats for perfection. </div>

Nurture is part of last year's Rubber Brights collection, and sports an interesting satin/rubber finish- it is also the most incredible vivid green. It's extremely bright, but doesn't come off as a citrusy neon- rather, it has an beautiful fresh leafy-ness to it, if that makes sense. I absolutely loved wearing this one, and was sorry to remove it. Very unique.<br />

First of all, my apologies for a lengthy disappearance- sometimes life (regrettably) gets in the way of blogging about nail polish. I should be back to posting fairly regularly, however. And to kick that off, I've got a great spring manicure to show you: Picture Polish Honey Dew, with a single layer of China Glaze It's A Trap-eze layered overtop of the ring finger as an accent nail. I love the way this turned out- Honey Dew is a gorgeous, dreamy, melon green, and It's A Trap-eze is sheer enough to let the base colour shine through to create a delicious milky effect. </div>

Speaking of Picture Polish, did anyone else get the chance to try the new glitter base, "Revolution"? I was able to get my hands on it through Nail Polish Canada when it first went up on the site, and have only really tried it with Cirque's French Roast (a pretty glitter dense polish), and can't say I noticed a dramatic difference in removal. If I did it again, I'd probably just opt for foil method. I'm assuming it's more to do with my particular body chemistry, as others have reported excellent results using Revolution.<br />

Today I've got two lovely shades from the Sinful Colors "Sugar Rush" collection- I can't resist a nice purple (especially with a price tag under $2), and this is proof. Candy Coated is a light blue-toned purple creme. This one is my favourite; it has a great formula and it really looked flawless on. One of my favourite springtime lacquers! </div>

<br />
Sweet Tooth is a warmer and brighter pinky-purple. Still a gorgeous shade, although it didn't quite take the cake for me in the same way Candy Coated did. It reminds me a tiny bit of a lighter Zoya Perrie, actually.<br />

Tonight I've got a polish from Jindie Nails to share with you: this is "Stompin' Gilbert Grapes", a white crelly (creme-jelly) base with purple, green, and orange (or pink-y orange? For some reason they look pink in other online pictures, but to me they seem orange) glitters. The purple and green glitters come in various sizes and shapes, including some larger hex glitter and medium sized square glitter. The orangey glitter is much smaller. For me, this took a solid 3-4 coats to cover completely, but it was totally worth it. I love the soft milky/jelly base with the pretty combination of glitters in it. </div>

Tonight I've got two lacquers to share with you from Quo by Orly's spring collection: Bubble Bath and Sailor's Blue. FYI, these are the exact same as the Orly polishes Peaceful Opposition and High on Hope, except re-packaged into the Quo by Orly lacquers carried by Shopper's Drugmart in Canada. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is three coats of Bubble Bath, a milky white with lots of silver glitter in different shapes and sizes. I'm a sucker for silver glitter in a milky base because it makes the glitter look like a cool reflective white glitter, and not so much straight-up silver. Neat look, although the formula was a little globby. </div>

Sailor's Blue is a smokey navy blue with tonnes of purpley-red and gold shimmer. This one is really cool and the shimmer flashes a whole bunch of different colours. A little bit multichromatic!<br />

Feast your eyes on Man Glaze Cabron: a shimmery matte in a deep blackened indigo purple shade. Very dramatic, and totally stunning. As we've come to expect, the label art is amazing. </div>

Finally, I've got a few glorious snapshots of how Cabron looks with Black Cat Lacquer's Black Hole layered overtop; you might recall that I first showed this one on my blog <a href="http://lacquertracker.blogspot.ca/search?q=black+hole">here</a>, but failed utterly at choosing a winning layering combination. I'd say that problem has been rectified here, wouldn't you agree?</div>

Color Club Port-folio is a lovely medium purple with extremely strong duochrome green flash. This reminds me of an oil slick, or maybe the shell of a beetle. Very cool polish, and not one that's gotten a whole lot of hype, from what I can tell. Remember when duochromes like this were the mythical unicorns of the polish world? Decent application, and this was two coats:</div>

Today I've got two lacquers from the Color Club Kaleidoscope Collection (Spring 2013): Bright Night (intense, vivid, cobalt blue), and Pearl-spective (a fine flakey shimmer topcoat that flashes pink and gold). I layered Pearl-spective over top of Bright Night for this manicure; I was really happy with how much Pearl-spective stood out as a topcoat, and loved how finely milled the flakey shimmer was. </div>

Today I've got swatches of the Julie G Gumdrops collection- a set of six gorgeous sugar-texture (or "liquid sand" texture) polishes. I've got a skittles manicure that shows off the first five shades. Thumb to pinkie, these are: Blueberry Fizz (pale blue with bigger silver-y shimmer particles), Hot Cinnamon (intense, vibrant red with subtle gold glitter), Rock Candy (teal with different sizes of sparkly glitter particles), Crushed Candy (grape-y purple with silver glitter accents in different sizes), Tangerine Dream (bright citrus orange packed with golden sparkle). </div>

<span style="text-align: left;">I ordered this whole set as part of the pre-order for $20 from the Jesse's Girl Cosmetics website, and I can't say enough in terms of quality for the price- these are all gorgeous, and I'm not sure my skittles swatches quite do them justice. My favourites are Hot Cinnamon, Rock Candy, and Crushed Candy. I highly recommend these if you're into the textured look- they're inexpensive and really fantastic!</span><br />
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: left;">Do you have any plans to pick up some of the Julie G Gumdrops polishes? And while I'm asking, what do you think of my new nail shape? I recently filed them into more of a rounded/almond shape, and have been loving them! </span>The Lacquer Trackerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13898203219016170959noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298663236288615808.post-8635373462417922002013-04-22T00:06:00.001-07:002013-04-22T00:06:22.943-07:00SpaRitual Aurum<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

So, this year for Valentine's Day I received what was pretty much the best Valentine's Day present ever from my significant other: a whole whack of lacquer-y amazingness in the form of Cirque's delightful polishes. Was there ever a purer expression of true love? Well, from a lacquerhead's perspective, anyways. </div>

<i>The pretties, left to right: Cape Liz, Galinda, Vaudeville, Hellebore, French Roast, XX, Cypress</i></div>
<br />
Today I have a few of these beauties to show to you- first up is Cape Liz, a stormy light grey-blue with small flakey shimmer particles in it. Gorgeous, and a little demure. This reminds me of a bluer version of Illamasqua's Raindrops- it has a similar shimmer running through it.<br />

Vaudeville: ridiculously pretty soft purpley-pink with strong golden/green shimmer running through it. I love this colour combination, and the shimmer makes this polish something special.<br />

Vaudeville, with it's pink/purple base and greenish shimmer, also seemed like a natural companion to Hellebore, which is a mixture of predominantly green glitter with subtle purple accents. I applied Hellebore as a gradient over Vaudeville.<br />

So far, all of the Cirque polishes I've tried have been excellent in terms of formula; I can't wait to try the rest of them! I'm especially pleased with how the Vaudeville/Hellebore manicure worked out- it's a perfect springtime combination... if only spring would actually show up around here. Which brings me to my next topic, regarding the weather in my neck of the woods. I apparently inhabit some kind of wintery hell dimension, because so far April has looked much like this:<br />

After my disappointment with Rescue Beauty Lounge's <a href="http://lacquertracker.blogspot.ca/2013/02/rescue-beauty-lounge-piu-mosso-with-max.html">Piu Mosso</a>, I'm happy to report that Aqua Lily rather makes up for it. It's a gorgeous turquoise blue with lovely purple/pink shimmer. The formula was quite dense, covering easily in two coats. I found this shade to be really flattering on me, and I'm definitely happy I was able to snag this when it was re-released last fall. </div>

Aqua Lily was also the perfect base for Pirate Polish's Lovandula (a lovely lavender glitter from the Valentine's Day collection); I love the contrast between the pink and lavender glitters and the vibrant turquoise of Aqua Lily.<br />

Dorian Gray is a charcoal metallic grey, opaque in two coats. It has a somewhat pearly finish, and at first I thought it might show a few frosty brushstrokes, but after drying it looked pretty smooth. Overtop I layered Lush Lacquer's Lite Brite, an extremely punchy and vibrant glitter topcoat; I can spot big magenta metallic glitters, small turquoise squares, various orange, blue, and purple glitters, along with some tiny silver speckles. Overall, it's a really fun and high impact layering glitter. Highly recommend.<br />

As I mentioned, I originally wore this manicure earlier in the year, and at the time I happened to be visiting Banff and Lake Louise. While sight-seeing around the Chateau Lake Louise, we were lucky enough to have a look at some amazing ice sculptures that had been carved as part of an ice-scupting competition. There were so many incredible and intricate sculptures- here's a look at one (with a pretty stunning backdrop, to boot).<br />

I can't help but feel that my swatches don't quite do this one justice; this is Glitter Gal's Light As A Feather, a stunning white linear holographic. I haven't come across anything quite like this, and I remember when this first came out it was pretty unique. Now, with more and more indie makers creating fabulous polishes and exploring new combinations, it might not be as exceptionally unique as it once was, but it's still a fantastic lacquer.

I really love how light and ethereal this looks. It looked even more flawless in person- delicate and probably subdued enough to be work appropriate, but made special by the addition of holographic glow. Yep, this polish has definitely earned its coveted "<a href="http://lacquertracker.blogspot.ca/search/label/awesome">awesome</a>" tag.<br />
<br />

Tonight I've got two different layering combinations shown over Zoya Bela, a pale pinky-peach jelly, to share with you. The first layering combo features Enchanted Polish's Starbright Sparkles. Starbright Sparkles features a sheer silvery holographic base containing a multitude of different coloured hexagonal glitters. This polish is definitely best layered because of the sheer base, and I think the holographic nature of this would be best displayed over a darker colour- I'll definitely be trying that next time. </div>

If you recall, "One Less Lonely Glitter" is from the NOPI Justin Bieber collection which came out a couple years ago. Yes, a truly gag-worthy inspiration for a nail polish collection. Almost as bad as the Kardashian collections...<br />

Tonight I've got a quick post to share with you- this is Maybelline Cocktail Dress, a fine black glitter with bigger red hexagonal glitter mixed in. The formula was just okay- I think this took three coats to achieve opacity. </div>

It actually reminds me a little bit of one of the <a href="http://lacquertracker.blogspot.ca/2013/01/opi-stay-night-liquid-sand.html">OPI Mariah Carey Liquid Sands, "Stay The Night".</a> The red glitter in the OPI is smaller and more of a magenta-pink, and of course the OPI also has the textured element to it, but they are somewhat similar in overall effect.<br />
<br />
What do you think of Maybelline's Cocktail Dress? Does the name annoy anyone else? It makes me think that this is a lacquer with an identity crisis: "I'm not a nail varnish... I'm a dress! A REAL dress!" Alrighty, then, little delusional polish. It's kinda cute when you think of it that way, I suppose.The Lacquer Trackerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13898203219016170959noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298663236288615808.post-47872712763944577442013-04-01T23:57:00.001-07:002013-04-01T23:57:13.193-07:00OPI - The Man With The Golden Gun<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Tonight I've got OPI's The Man With The Golden Gun topcoat to share with you- while I couldn't justify shelling out the cash for this myself, I was pretty thrilled to find it in my stocking at Christmas. The gold flakes aren't very dense in this- what you see below is one coat over Zoya Marley. This is a pretty Easter look, but next time I think I'll try this over a darker colour (although I think I'll wait for a semi-special occasion... I can't help but think plastering gold leaf on your nails requires a special event- I guess grocery shopping doesn't quite count). </div>
