Cake Nail Lacquer

Apparently yesterday was the first day of fall but someone should really tell the California weather that. It's definitely still summer here lol. Anyways, today I have some pretty awesome cremes to show you all from a new to me indie called Cake Nail Lacquer. To avoid repeating myself I'll just say it here: all polishes took two coats with topcoat for perfect opacity, some could even be 1 coaters if you do thicker coats than me.

Persian Tea Party

This polish isn't as red as my pictures are making it seem, it's a neon so it freaked my camera out a bit but it leans slightly more orange. Perfect formula.

Happy Birthday Venus

I enjoy this shade of brown on my tremendously, I think it looks awesome! It's got a teeny tiny bit of frost going on but it's literally barely noticeable. Again, the same perfect formula as the previous color. 

Digital Garden

Hello, this shade is perfect for fall if it ever gets here! It's a gorgeous dusty purple. I can't rave enough about this formula, it was glorious. 

Over The Rhone

Okay. This blue is everything right here. It was amazing. It dried down matte so I added topcoat to make it shine. Also I didn't use basecoat and it did stain my nails so use a coat or two of basecoat and you'll be fine. Honestly I think this color is worth it, it's so rich and beautiful. Plus it didn't stain my cuticles and that bugs me a million times more than a polish staining my nails haha. 

I hope you like these polishes, I loved them all! 

Dashing Housewife Polish

Hi guys! Today I have a cute little trio called Turks & Caicos from DreAnn at Dashing Housewife Polish. 

First up is Sea's So Beautiful

This blue is everything! So amazing. Formula was perfect, swatch shows 2 thin coats plus topcoat.

There's even some shimmer that is way more apparent on the nail. I love this polish! 

Can't BeREEF My Eyes

Coral colored polish is my weakness. Oh goodness. I love this one also. Formula was amazing on this one as well, 2 coats plus topcoat. 

Again there's some pretty awesome shimmer going on in there, I love it!

Last up is The Sands

I feel like a broken record but oh my god this color! The base is slightly pinker than this picture is showing up but ugh it's perfect. Swatch shows 3 coats plus topcoat. 

Check out this combo of glitters, could it be any more amazing?! 

Seriously. This collection makes me want to run to the beach and live there forever. Formula was perfect on all of them. I love them all. So head over to dashinghousewife.com to order your set today. For real. You need them. 

Here's some bonus nail art I did using all three polishes. 

It's time for Halloween!

All in all formula was awesome on all of these, not thick and not too thin, minimal fishing and excellent glitter payoff. Love them all! These are all available now in Jamie's Etsy shop (etsy.com/shop/kawaiinaillacquer).

Last up is Make Him Blush

I didn't really think I would enjoy this shade on me but oh was I wrong. I love it! It's work appropriate but with an amazing shimmery twist. Swatch shows 2 coats plus topcoat. 

There's an amazing gold shimmer and flakies that I wasn't able to capture accurately and it hurts my heart because it looks so awesome. 

I promise that shimmer is there and it. is. awesome!
