I Make it Rain Leaves!

Hello all:] I have another beautiful Lacquistry to show you all today, I Make it Rain Leaves. I had some trouble figuring out the best way to rock this collection, but I stumbled on Harvest Moon and decided that it would work best with this polish. I used to stay away from wearing glitter over foils [something about the combination always bothered me for some reason..], but after wearing Glass Houses, I'm warming up to the whole thing. So I put on 2 coats of CG Harvest Moon [which is a PERFECT fall color] and then 1 coat of IMiRL.




I love all the colors in IMiRL, they go together so well! Anyway, I'll be having guest posts and backlogged swatches for the next week-ish, I broke some nails pretty badly this weekend:[ I'm hoping the base coat I'm using will hurry up the process!!

Serum No. 5 Review!

Hey ladies! Remember my post from yesterday about Serum No. 5 Shrinking Violet? I now have 3 more Serums to share with you today:] Before the pictures, I'll talk about the application: on all 4 of these polishes, the application was really great. Great amount of glitter and all were opaque in 2 coats [except for the glitter topper obviously]. Also, all the polishes were seriously just pretty. Okay, onto the pictures.


Peachy Keen [2 coats]

I love the shimmery base and the big gold glitters in this one. So hard. But it's really the little teeny gold glitters that steal my heart. It doesn't look like it should make much of a difference, but I love how it added an overall sparkliness to the whole polish.


Girl's Gotta Eat [1 coat over Revlon Runway Pearl, China Glaze Starboard, CG Purr-fect Plum, and a Revlon light purple who's name is escaping me completely...]

My favorite combo of this was over Runway Pearl. Whitish polishes with gold glitter are so appealing to me. Also, I love the holographic glitter in here. It makes the polish so interesting!


 Friendly Tiff's [2 coats]

Okay, I won't lie, this wasn't my favorite of the Serums I got. I think the foily base covers the glitter a little too much for me. That said, I like it a lot more IRL. The overall color is really pretty and at an armslength away, it's way prettier.



What do you think of these polishes?? I think my favorite is Girl's Gotta Eat, I fell hard for that stunner. I want to put it over every polish ever. Especially neutrals. GAH!!

Zoya's Carly

Hello, lovelies:] Everyone have a good weekend? I slept in sooo long today, I was exhausted haha. Anyway, I have 2 coats of a new Zoya to show you: Carly! I really like this one, even if it doesn't exactly fit in with the rest of the collection. It dried really fast, same as most foils. I like the red base in it a lot, as well, I think it looks better with my skin than blue based purples.



This is such an interesting foil! I've never seen one quite like this before, and I really like that it's a dark and rich color. I also got the mini trio from Zoya so I can say that I LOVE Zuza and Kimber. Myrta's still a question mark in my mind, but we'll see how I feel after I wear it:] Based on them, I'm gonna have to go back for some more Zoyas!! Ohhh boy..
