ALIQUID Lacquer Adopt a Shelter Dog Charity Polish 2016 Swatch & Review

It's October again! Indie brand ALIQUID Lacquer is celebrating Adopt a Shelter Dog Month with creating another limited edition polish to support the ASPCA. Their previous efforts have raised almost $700 over the past two years! This year they are teaming up with TwinkledT to also release some cute vinyls for doggie themed nail art.

Press Sample

Dog Ate My Homework is a berry-tinted jelly with holographic and iridescent microglitter, gold flakies and blue glass flecks. Since it is a jelly it is pretty sheer, but that allows the gorgeous glitz inside to pop and layer to give a complex look. You could build this up on it's own or layer it on top of an opaque base color for a different look. I used three coats here.

The included TwinkledT vinyl sheet comes with 24 decals and 24 stencils in lots of cute designs. These worked really nicely for me, and being a beginner, I think I did pretty well with them! I used my go-to opaque white crème to fill in the heart-paw and dog stencils. I also put on a coat of matte transforming top coat to give the polish another look.

About the cause: About 3.9 million dogs enter U.S. shelters every year, and 1.2 million dogs are euthanized (800,000 of them pit bulls and pit bull mixes like our dog Trudy). Adopt a Shelter Dog Month seeks to call attention to the plight of these animals and to encourage people to adopt dogs rather than going to a breeder. No matter your preferences, you're bound to find a rescue dog that fits perfectly into your home! Click here to read all about pet adoption!

The vision of the ASPCA is "a humane community in which all animals are treated with respect and kindness." Donations to the ASPCA support a variety of causes, including:
•Grants to shelters nationwide
•Spay/neuter and microchipping programs
•Adoption, fostering and relocation programs
•Investigation and seizure of abused animals
•Lobbying for anti-cruelty legislation

This polish will only be available in the month of October from ALIQUID Lacquer's website. You can purchase it for $13 and $6 of that will go to the ASPCA! Since I received this polish for review, I have donated the $6 that would've been given to the ASPCA had I purchased this.

If you are a dog lover, cat enthusiast, or just want to support a great charity for animals, please consider donating or purchasing this awesome polish!

ALIQUID Lacquer Adopt A Shelter Dog Charity Polish Swatch & Review

Happy October my cookies! This year has totally flown by, I don't know where it has gone! I have a special polish from indie brand ALIQUID Lacquer to show you today, a charity polish that benefits the ASPCA for Adopt a Shelter Dog Month! Below is the press release for the polish they created called See Spot Run.

Press Sample

October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month! This limited edition polish will only be available in October. We will donate $5 from each purchase to the ASPCA! Each order will also include a free magnet featuring our dog Trudy's pawprint (it's the perfect size for your Helmer drawer!). We're aiming to collect $500, but we can only do it with your help!

About 3.9 million dogs enter U.S. shelters every year, and 1.2 million dogs are euthanized (800,000 of them pit bulls and pit bull mixes like Trudy). Adopt a Shelter Dog Month seeks to call attention to the plight of these animals and to encourage people to adopt dogs rather than going to a breeder.

See Spot Run has a sapphire blue jelly base with a mix of circle and hex glitters in pink, purple, red, blue and silver with silver holographic microglitter and aqua sparks. This was a little bit sheer due to the jelly-ness, so I built it up in three coats. I love the complex look of the glitters through the base, it reminds me of a pond with flowers peeking out from the depths!

This polish will only be available in the month of October from ALIQUID Lacquer's website. You can purchase it for $11 and $5 of that will go to the ASPCA! I love dogs, and all of my animals have been rescued from shelters, so this cause is near and dear to my heart. Since I received this polish for review, I have donated the $5 that would've been given to the ASPCA had I purchased this.

This is a lovely polish and it is supporting a fabulous cause, so help them beautiful puppies and kitties today and adopt or donate or purchase this polish! Love ya!
