Unteal Another Rainbow is a "deep teal linear holographic polish with a bright teal flash."  I'm in love with this color.  It's so darn pretty!  Of course the fact that it's holographic is a bonus.  I found the formula of Unteal Another Rainbow to be very nice and easy to use.   It applied well and leveled out on perfectly in 3 coats.  In reality you only need 2 coats, but I get a little worried about sunshine pictures so I went with 3 - unnecessary.  No topcoat used.  And now...LOTS OF PICTURES!

Lumina Lacquer Valentine's Day Trio

Hello, hello!  Yes I am back again.  My seat is parked and I have been working my fingers off to get these all posted for you.  But you want to know something, I'm having fun!  And who doesn't love sparkly polish on their nails?  I sure do!  This post is the new Valentine's Day Trio from Lumina Lacquer.  I am so happy Tatiana went back to her glitter bomb roots with this collection and gave us some awesome new glitters to enjoy!  Of course I adore her solids colors and micro glitters, but it makes me happy to see the glitter bombs because that's what initially drew me to her brand well over a year ago.  The Valentine's Day Trio is made of 3 Limited Edition glitters and they just went live in the shop for $9 each.  I love them all but keep reading to find out which is my favorite of the 3.

Up first is Cupid, a "neon pink and white glitter mix that includes hearts, stars, and flowers."  The glitter mixture is very sweet and girly.  I put it over OPI Flamingo Tink Pink and love all the pinkness.  Cupid had a great formula with fantastic glitter coverage.  There was no fishing required for shapes or larger glitters.  I used 2 coats of Cupid and finished with a layer of topcoat.  

Next, Bad Romance.  This is a "blue, turquoise and black glitter mix that includes hearts and stars in a clear base."  THIS was my favorite.  I loved the colors and sized of the glitters.  I love that it's not the typical Valentine's Day colors.  Bad Romance had a fantastic formula and applied easily.  I was really happy with the glitter payoff.  I used 2 coats of Bad Romance over Zoya Ling.  I finished with topcoat.  

And rounding out the collection is Paramore.  Paramore is a "pink, red and gold holo microglitter blend in a clear base."  This is the blingy wow-factor of the trio!  The blend of colors are perfect and the microglitter, like all of Tatiana's microglitters, applies with ease and covers fully on it's own in a few coats.  But look at the bling!  Sorry, I am easily distracted by sparkly things.  Formula and application were both aces.  I used 3 coats of Paramore and finished with topcoat for a smooth to the touch finish.

The first polish I have to share is Wine Time!  Inspired by the Panteone Color of 2015, this is a gorgeous redish-marsala polish full of holo shimmer and sparkle.  It actually dries to a suede finish which is very pretty and unique, although I forgot to take a picture of it that way so check out this post from Pointless Cafe to see Wine Time in it's natural suede state.  I was actually too eager to topcoat it and see that sparkle pop - and wow does it!  With every movement of my hands I saw sparkles and bling. Formula and application were both good, Wine Time covered completely in 2 coats.  Be sure to let each layer dry fully before adding the next - especially if you plan to wear it with the suede finish.  But if you want the glossy finish use topcoat like I did!

The other polish Gina has for us is Cherub Rock.  Glitter bombs are her thang so I am happy she created a fun one for us this coming holiday.  Cherub Rock (yes inspired by the Smashing Pumpkins song - listen to it HERE) is full of metallic pinks and silvers (circles, triangles, sequins) and matte black (hearts and stars).  Of course it has her signature touch, a nice dose of holo sparkle.  It's an awesome blend and will look great over all kinds of base colors - pinks, reds, white, silver, grey, etc...  I used Barielle Grey Skies as my base and fell it showed off all the glitters and holo sparkle.  I actually used the sponge method again with this glitter topper - brushing glitters and base onto a cosmetic sponge and dabbing it on my nails.  This helped get maximum glitters and less base.  I sponged on 2 coats of Cherub Rock and finished with a thick layer of topcoat.

Feeling Dapper is inspired by a popular event at Disneyland called Dapper Day.  Everyone gets dressed up old-timey, dapper and looking their best.  And what's more dapper than a neat bowtie?  Not much!  So Cassandra, inspired by those well dressed Disneyland guests, created Feeling Dapper.  This polish is a a mixture of bows in every color under the rainbow and lots of silvery shimmer.  I started with a base of Barielle Soho At Night and sponged on 2 coats of bows.  As with most larger glitters, the bows are a bit heavier and I found it easiest to get them out and put them on a sponge to apply that way instead of directly on my nails.  I had better control of placement as well as the base:glitter ratio.  TIn person the shimmer stands out well over all the colors I tried (white, pink, purple), but I chose the Barielle as the one to share because the darker shade allowed the shimmer in Feeling Dapper to be seen easiest.  I finished with a thick layer of topcoat and left for the day feeling quite fancy with my bowtie mani!
