SuperChic Lacquer Dreamology Collection Swatches & Review

Heeeeeyyy good lookin! Happy weekend :) Today I have the new SuperChic Lacquer Dreamology collection to show you! These are described as "power shades having fierce color depth with intense linear holographic effects" that are totally opaque in one coat!

They are highly saturated so there was a warning that they may cause staining, especially on porous nails. I used two coats of SuperChic Lacquer base coat Bring It On, formulated especially to prevent staining, and I didn't have any problems with these staining my nails. They still can stain your skin though, so be careful to pull straight down your nail with your remover soaked cotton ball when removing the polish to prevent this. These all had similar to basically identical formulas, and all truly were completely opaque in one coat!

Wake Me Up is a deep berry linear holographic.

Lucid Lala Land is an intense dreamy blue linear holographic.

R.E.M. is a black linear holographic. This was the only one that was a little different, it had a slightly thicker consistency.

Realm of Erotica is a racy red linear holographic.

40 Winks is an intense violet purple linear holographic.

No Rest For the Wicked is a brilliant emerald green linear holographic.

Also new to the SCL line up is Marvel-Star top coat. It's a "neon luminescent" UV reactive quick dry top coat. I already love their Marvel Liquid Macro quick dry top coat and this is a fun twist on that great product. It's smooth and thin and flows on to the nail nicely without flooding your cuticles. I wish I had a black light to test this out! I used this on all my swatches of these and it really made them pop, however I didn't realize until I finished my swatches that it gave a slight blue tint to a few of these colors, because I swatch in direct sunlight and there are UV rays in sunlight of course. The black, red and green all look slightly more blue toned than they do indoors with this top coat on.

You will be able to purchase these from the SuperChic Lacquer website and Etsy store on September 30th at 4pm PST for $10 each. What do you think of these sexy one coat wonders?? I am quite impressed with them! My favorite has to be Wake Me Up, I don't think I have an equal color in my collection. We'll talk to you again soon! I have some exciting things coming up :D

occ nail varnish

here are some more obsessive compulsive cosmetics polishes for you beauties!

wasabi is a WHAM! POW! IN YO FACE! color that is totally up my alley :D a bright chartreuse creme that was a tad thick, but manageable. this is three coats of brillance!
uber is an amazing shade that i la la love!  my skin is a bit more tan than most folks', i think, so it's hard to find a neutral that looks good on me. this taupe is perfection without matching my tone too closely, a nice contrast but still giving that "band-aid but better" look. and the formula was seriously great, thin but opaque! three coats.
rx is a new shade, part of their UV selection--they glow under ultra violet light! it is a PERFECT true candy blue! and i love the name, haha! this formula was also amazing, no bubbling and it built upon itself very nicely! this is three coats.
and last is radiate, another LOOK AT ME! color, a UV shade as well, red this time! wowza, i can't believe what this baby did to my camera! almost impossible to capture in a photo, you have to see this one to believe it! to say it glows would be an understatement! this is three coats.
are you diggen and of these shades, kittens? i love bright colors, even if we are looking at fall coming up fast :)

xoxo,
