Polish Information: This fun, springy blue is Above the Curve's Peeps, Love, & Happiness, from their Power to the Polish Peeps collection. It's another well-chosen color for spring- a sky blue with holographic shimmer and lots of pastel glitters. Unfortunately, I had a lot of trouble getting the bigger glitters out, but with some digging, I was able to get a few- including a flower! I love the base color, and it was completely opaque in 1-2 coats (1 was really enough, but I used two). And it didn't have glitters poking up out of it either, after just one coat of Color Club topcoat, which was nice! No staining on removal, and 4 day wear had minimal chipping/tip wear. It was really a great polish, if only the glitters wanted to come out! On to the pic spam!<br />

I don't know why flash makes my hands look tan. I assure you they are not... but I thought it might help show some of the shine! Anyway, I'm including the photos (not 100% color accurate) anyway!<br />

Final thoughts: I thought this was a gorgeously fun color. I wish the glitters were easier to get out, but I love the base color. Wear time was fabulous as well! If you love light blues, you NEED to add this to your list!<br />

Polish Information: This fun springy polish is Above the Curve's This One's for my Peeps, from their super-fun Power to the Polish Peeps Collection! It's a pink-leaning purple packed with microflakies that are blue and purple (I think). It's a really fun spring polish with GREAT, smooth application- it looked full coverage in one coat, but I used two to be sure. Also, after FOUR days, only very minor tipwear! I really enjoyed it!<br />
<br />
You probably noticed, but instead of a mug, I used one of the Dunkin Donuts Peeps donuts- I thought, how can I resist with a Peeps polish? Here's another shot:<br />

Polish Information: This beauty is Above the Curve's Playing for Peeps, from their super fun and springy Power to the Polish Peeps Collection (LOVE it!!)! This is a tealish blue crelly, loaded with neon glitters. In my bottle, even though I shook it up, the bigger glitters stuck to the side and didn't seem to be too present, so I mostly got the little ones on my nails. Honestly though, I like the look of it so much better with just the little glitters!! It's like the springiest robin's egg color! I love it! Application was easy (as long as you don't want the big glitters) and it was full coverage in 2 thin coats. Wear time was great too- no chips after 2 days, despite how hard I am on my nails! I wore it over Julep's base coat and topped it with Color Club top coat (as I find this smooths out bumps from glitters well). On to the pic spam!<br />

Polish Information: This polish is Above the Curve's We are the World (WATW), a LE polish in honor of Earth Day!. WATW is a deep blue crelly with green and blue glitters mixed in (the name is so apt- it does look like Earth soup!). It doesn't need undies and comes to full coverage in three coats. Application was nice and smooth, but the bigger glitters were hard to get out (for me this is great, as I love the smaller glitters). It also dried smoothly and one coat of top coat was enough to make it completely smooth. As for wear time, it only had minor tip wear after 3 days of rough wear, which was great by me!<br />

“When I set a glass prism on a windowsill and allow the sun to flood through it, a spectrum of colors dances on the floor. What we call "white" is a rainbow of colored rays packed into a small space. The prism sets them free. Love is the white light of emotion.”<br />
<br />
- Diane Ackerman, <i>A Natural History of Love</i><br />

Polish Information: Above, I am showing MDJ Creations Cascading Holo Top Coat over Zoya Charisma (2 thick coats), which I consider to be an orchid shade (since as we all know, Pantone named Orchid as 2014's color of the year!). The main problem with holo top coats is that they will silver out any color you put them over. The way to get around this is to use a very thin coat, so you get the holo without all the silvering. Therefore, the holo top coat needs to have a balanced amount of spectraflair pigment, which is somewhat hard to do (I've had really bad luck with holo top coats in the past). Luckily, MDJ Creations has found this balance, and one thin coat of her Cascading Holo Top Coat over any color gives the desired holo effect without silvering the color out! It applied easily and smoothly- one thin coat is all it needs!<br />

WHAT? Second color?? Yes, I decided to try the Cascading Holo Top Coat over Zoya Bevin (2 coats) just to show what it looks like over a second color. Again, one thin coat of the holo top coat over the color gave it that holo flair without silvering it out!<br />

Final thoughts: This is a beautiful holo top coat and gives just the amount of spectraflair you need to turn any color into a holographic- without making it a shade of silver. Application was smooth and easy, no pro techniques needed!<br />

Polish Information: This polish is MDJ Creations Tropical Heat. It's a hot orangy pink jelly with many small silvery glitters. It was pretty sheer, so I layered 2 coats of it over 2 coats Zoya Mitzi, which makes it look pink on my nails! Julep topcoat was used in these photos. Application was smooth and easy. I only wore it for about a day, but no chips or cracks! Anyway, on to the pics!<br />

“"Well, that’s actually quite understandable," Deepak gently returned, "there are a lot of things people fear, yet really the only thing people have any reason to fear is uncertainty. Of course, the biggest uncertainty is what happens to us after this life, which is why we fear death so much. But even death is rather pointless to worry about, it will happen to each and every one of us, whether we care for it or not, all we can do is try to accept it as gracefully as possible.<br />
"This is why, living day to day, my greatest uncertainty hasn't been about death, but whether you will love me by returning all of my affection. I can’t think of anything I would find more fearful or disturbing than if you were to refuse my feelings or worse if you were to fall in love with someone else before you had a chance to love me."”<br />

Polish Information: This polish is MDJ Creations "Festival Lights." It has multiple small yellow and red glitters of different shapes with a slight holographic shimmer in a slightly gold base. The base is nearly clear, so it is certainly best layered, and I chose to use a bright white base so that the glitters could really stand out, and you could see variations on base color. Thus, all photos are 2 coats Festival Lights over 2 coats Sally Hansen Ivory Skull (a bright bleach white). The holographic shimmer in the base is very subtle in photos, but you can catch a bit of holo shine in natural light. Application was very good- no fishing for glitters- they came out easily, even from the mini bottle. I used Julep topcoat. Wear time was pretty good- no chips until 2 days of wear (when I was doing hard cleaning/laundry). On to the photos!<br />

Final thoughts: This one was fun to play around with. I think in the future, putting it over a gold color would also be very pretty, as the base is light and this would make it stand out more. Wear was pretty good and application was great!<br />

"Ever since I was eight years old, I "borrowed" my mom's make up and nail polish. By the age of eleven, I was already crushing and mixing eye shadows into my own custom lacquers (sorry mom), so when it was time to do a Blogger collaboration shade with Literary Lacquers, I couldn't have been happier. Growing up, I recall wearing 2 to 3 different manicures in a day, and people thought I was crazy; and I still do it now when I have the time. I started taking NOTD pictures a couple of years ago, as a way of making them last a bit longer, and this is how my blog started. When I am not blogging, I am a scientist, although I daydream about nail polish all day; and constantly look at my glittery nails under the latex gloves when I'm working in the lab. Last month, Amy asked me what kind of books I read, and I was sitting at my desk thinking science books. I looked over at the pile next to me and thought: Chemistry, Physics and Biology books? It's really all I read now. Among the many scientific topics that I can read about for hours, is Energy and Work. I am fascinated by the concept of Entropy (disorder), which is one that Amy can relate to, especially after a long night of mixing. A few weeks ago, Amy sent me a picture of a prototype, which encompassed Heat and Entropy. I told her "Can you add iridescent blue micro-glitter? I see some blue flecks! Expand on that, as they say in the literary world", and she did! She worked her magic, and tested the lacquer for wear and staining. She sent me more pictures, and I was in love with the final result. That is how Thermodynamics was born."<br />

Polish Information: This beauty is Literary Lacquers Thermodynamics. It's a HOT pink jelly with blue, purple, and pink microglitters/shimmers. As a jelly, it looked pretty solid in the bottle, so I decided to bravely paint it on sans undies. It took me 7 thick coats to get the coverage you see in these photos. I probably could have used some more for fuller coverage. As for wear, on day three, only one tiny chip in one nail, so pretty good! Please forgive the bad nail art. I saw pink, and I thought VALENTINE'S NAILS! I was determined to get some nail art on there. This is actually a final nail art ditch attempt (you don't even want to see its predecessors), as the others were truly terrible. This one was simple enough that I figured I could keep it (and I had already removed enough polish for the day). It also shows you what Thermodynamics would look like with a white polish undie (here- Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Ivory Skull)- white really makes the pink pop!! I used Julep's top and base coats. On to the picspam...<br />

Final thoughts: This was a fun and beautiful polish with a few layers to it, with the microglitters/shimmers! I really enjoyed wearing it. If you want the color to pop more, I suggest light-colored undies! Wear time was great.

"This book is special because it represents exactly the love I feel for my babies, never ending, even on days that I feel like they push my limits to the max, when I put them in bed and see what a huge blessing they are to me I can just be grateful. This polish is so special because my daughter, Keera and I thought about it together. We wanted something blue and shiny and of course holo. We both love polish and obsessed with all things holo! Can't wait to do matching manis! We are so thrilled Amy was able to capture what we wanted in this beauty and definitely represents "I love you Forever."<br />

Polish Information: This beauty is Literary Lacquers Love You Forever, a deep sky blue holographic, another gorgeous part of the Community Collection. I did three thick coats to get full coverage with Julep's top and base coats. Application was very smooth and easy- it really slid on- a great creme! It did start chipping within about 3 days, but not too badly. Today is day 4 and only minor wear to report! On to the pic spam...<br />

"Jackaroo, written by Cynthia Voigt, is an inspirational novel that takes place in an undefined Middle Ages type placed called the "Kingdom." The central character is a girl, Gwyn, who has been confined by gender (it seems her only option is marriage and the like) and an inability to help the less fortunate (often made less fortunate by the system of classist oppression). She begins to break out of this confinement when she stumbles upon the costume of a legendary figure called "Jackaroo" who is akin to Robin Hood (helps the oppressed with money and the like, rights injustices, all while wearing specific garb and a mask). She begins to mascarade as Jackaroo, helping the people and herself to grow/mature. Essentially, it boils down to action, intrigue, romance (yes, she does find love, but not as it would have been expected of her- she breaks ALL the rules!), and girl-power! I wanted the polish to be inspired by Jackaroo's costume, as a green-gold duochrome with some holo pizzazz. I always pictured it from the front of the book I had (for an image of the cover, http://cherstinieveen.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/jackaroo.jpg?w=595). I chose the name "Shift of Fate" because Gwyn has changed her fate by the decisions she has made, and also because the polish has a lovely color shift to it."<br />

Polish Information: This gorgeously clever creation (haha!) is my contribution to Literary Lacquers community collection, titled Shift of Fate. It is a green to gold duochrome with holographic pigment. Coverage is good on this one- two coats to full coverage. I had some minor tip wear within two days of wearing it, and it didn't get any worse by today (fourth day of wear). I fixed the wear with some polish before taking photos. I almost think this looks like it's got some flakies or something in it as well- I keep trying to look into it- it's really a multidimensional masterpiece! On to the picspam...<br />

Final thoughts: I really love this one (as I should, since I helped design it!), but really, I think Amy took my idea, and went above and beyond in creating it! This is really incredible. I can't gush about it enough- so much amazing in one color!!

BUT WAIT... She gave me an extra bottle to giveaway, brand new and gorgeous! As I will be sending it out, I am going to limit the contest to US only, so I will be able to track where it goes.

"As The Waltz Was Ending is one of my favorite books! I am a History Professor outside of my polish life and I knew I wanted a book with a historical reference. Waltz is set in Vienna, my favorite city, during World War 2 and the main character (also the author) is a young girl who loves ballet and immerses herself in dance as the war erupts around her. I love pink polish, and I knew a dainty, girly, strong, and bright color was a perfect shade to capture for this book, and I believe this polish captures it perfectly. Hope you all love it as much as I do (and go read the book!!)!"<br />

Polish Information: This beauty is Literary Lacquers As the Waltz Was Ending, from her Community Collection. It's a pink-purple holographic. This was full coverage in two coats. I used three just to make sure. I actually ended up wearing it for 3 weeks (with a couple extra applications), because life got me busy and then I had some camera issues. Wear was not bad. It took about 2 full days before I started getting chips, and about 4 days before I was missing chunks. I loved the color on me though, which isn't usually the case with light purples! Don't get me started on the nubbins. All I'll say is that winter this year is the worst.<br />

Final thoughts: I really liked this one- it was a lovely, subtle color, with a bit of a holo flair in the right light. It was fun to wear, and I am glad my technological issues are finally over and it's up to share with you! This is a beauty! Good coverage also (2 coats to full coverage!!). Heads up- next post will have a GIVEAWAY from this collection- YAY!<br />

"Growing up my house backed up to the Library in the city I grew up in. I spent a lot of time there, and not just because in the summer it was always nice and cool with central air. lol I got lost in the stores I would read; becoming the heroine, or the detective solving the crime. Often a sibling would have to come get me to tell me it was time for dinner. And after some serious hospital stays polish became a part of that equation; something to be immersed in like a book. A celebration of color, beauty and a story; yes, nail polish can do all that for me. It can give the color to correlate with my mood, it can sparkle and shine, even when I don’t feel sparkly and shiny. And it can represent something close to the heart with name, the color, even the finish; things like books, music, movies, places traveled. Sidewalk’s End represents the childhood memories of reading one of my favorite books as a kid. The grey of course represents the sidewalk; the place of neverending activity; hopscotch, squareball, rollerskating and so much more. The holo and the multi-colored flecks; the wonderful drawings, colorful poems, and stories that were filled with imagination and thoughts that were most likely lurking in many a youthful mind."<br />
<br />

Polish Information: This is Literary Lacquer's Sidewalk's End, another polish from her community collection. This one is intentionally thin, but I had to use 7 coats to get full coverage (my husband can confirm- it was hard to cover up the nails with this one!). It was a very pretty slate gray with a good holographic shimmer. Wear was good on this one- no chips, even after two days. I used Julep's top and base coats for this one. The glass flecks were a bit hard to see unless you were in the shade, so I tried to get a good photo...<br />

Final thoughts: This is the prettiest sidewalk I've ever seen! :-P It did have a pretty look about it, like the magical sidewalk you might imagine from your childhood. It was lovely- but be prepared to use an undie or a lot of coats to get full coverage! It is very (intentionally) thin! Aptly designed and inspired though- it certainly fits its name! :)<br />

"Scientist by trade, I had the pleasure of being promoted this year to a stay at home mom to a sweet little Jedi baby. It was this new life as a mom with messy hair, spit-up on my shirt, a newly broken nail and chipped polish, and more baby weight than I cared for that led me to choose Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou as the inspiration for my polish creation. Far too often we hold ourselves to an impossible standard of beauty that we fail to see that what truly makes us beautiful comes from the inside, not our outward appearance. I wanted this polish to be bold and confident because that is what makes a woman phenomenal."<br />
<br />
-Jen, paragraph comes from her community collection excerpt.<br />
<br />
Polish Information: This polish is Literary Lacquer's Phenomenal Woman from Literary Lacquer's Community Collection. The color is gorgeous! Application was very thin- it took 4 coats to get it like this, and even then, I still had a little visible nail line. I used Julep's top and base coat for these photos. It showed some tip wear after a day and more after a couple days. Thus, I did some touch up before taking these photos. The holo was pretty linear, and you got a lot of sparkle in light, but the linear really came out with bright lights (like flash).<br />

Final thoughts: I really liked this color, but it was a bit thin for my preference. However, this may have been better with an undie. I love the idea of the community collection, and the inspiration for this one is fabulous! Burgundy holos are very in right now, and this one certainly fits the bill!<br />

"The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear."<br />
<br />
-Buddy from <i>Elf</i><br />
<br />
Polish Information: This Christmas polish is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Christmas Cheer from her Elf collection. I LOVE this polish. The base is a green jelly that is fairly faint (so would take many coats to build to full coverage), so it needs an undie (I'd recommend a green or white, as since it is green, it would tint any other color green anyway). I used Zoya Verushka. Application was great for the little glitters, but the bigger glitters were their usual difficult selves. However, I still managed to get a pretty good number of them out!! The candy canes stuck up a little because they were almost the same size as my nails, but the snowflakes were small enough not to poke up with my top coat (I used Color Club top coat and BL basecoat here). I love the combination of glitters in this one, and the little glitters came out super easy and looked great and Christmasy on their own!! I LOVED wearing this one!!<br />

As an afterthought, I am also going to include a few photos from Liquid Sky Lacquer's Blue Daiquiri. This one was a problem child, but a pretty blue. I think it's a testament to how far she has come as an indie maker as this is one of her older polishes. It was a little thin, so I used four thick (very thick) coats, and you can still see a bit of my nail line. It also didn't really color shift as much as I am used to for LSL. The blue was a pretty color with a gold shimmer, but compared to her other amazing polishes, it wasn't as great. I mean, her other color changers were some of the best polishes I have ever used!! So, really, it was an okay polish. Not my new favorite, but it was alright. I'll just show a couple photos here...<br />

Final thoughts: If you love Christmas glitters, run (seriously, RUN) to get Christmas Cheer!! It's such a gorgeous glitter topper that SCREAMS Christmas at you!!! I loved it- application was good, though it does have the typical big glitter difficulty (though they are so packed in there you can still get them- not impossible by any means!). I LOVED it!!!<br />

This beauty is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Looking for Prince Charming, a pink holographic. It looked to be almost lilac or a pink-leaning lavender. It was pretty neutral, a bare change from skin tone for me, but very soft and pretty- worthy of its name and Disney inspiration. Application was smooth. It looked sheer at the first coat, but with two, it was fully covered. Dry time was fast. Very shiny once dried too!<br />
<br />

Polish Information: This festive polish is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Cotton Headed Ninny Muggins, from her Elf themed collection. It's chock full of tiny green glitters, and has some bigger gold and red glitters as well as gold and silver stars. Application was fabulous- seriously one of the best glitter polishes I have ever tried. The stars came out without any extra effort and two coats gave full coverage on my nails, no base color needed. I think this polish looks like Christmas trees on my nails! Ornaments and star toppers with an evergreen background! Wear time was pretty good- I've had this on since I got it on Saturday, and it is barely worn off at all. The stars also don't stick up hardly at all. I used one coat of Color Club top coat, and it tamed them down easily.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The green glitters were so packed in there that stars that came out on the first layer of polish got covered by the second layer of polish (you can see a few in there if you look closely!). And yes, my nails are nubbins, due to the cold weather drying out my nails a bit, I wanted to keep them shorter and stronger! Anyway, on to the pic spam!!</div>

Polish Information: This is Painted Polish's District 4 from her Hunger Games inspired collection. She describes it as "'District 4' is known among the districts of Panem for their vast fishing industry. The ocean blue jelly polish resembles the sea depths and sparkles with round and hex emerald green and blue glitters." This polish, although a jelly, was very nicely pigmented, so it was closer to a creme than a jelly. It was very nearly opaque after only one coat! I did two to make sure I wouldn't have a visible nail line, but I really didn't have to. Somehow, despite the opacity, you can still see the glitters in it, and they are lovely! I keep looking at it at different angles and it kind of has me fascinated, like looking into a pool of glittery fish- I would say her description was spot on!<br />

As far as application goes, it was great! It went on smoothly and opaquely. Also nice was that despite the deep blue color, there was no staining on my cuticles where I messily slathered it on (especially on my Cinderella hand- those cuticles really get well covered). It seems like most colors this deep blue stain, but not District 4! (I would still wear a base coat with it- just in case!- but I was impressed.) The big glitters were a little stubborn, but I actually really liked just the little ones- they gave it an ethereal look. It was a very hungry glitter though, so I used three coats of my top coats, very thickly (two coats of Color Club top coat and one coat of Julep freedom), and it was still slightly rough to the touch, but not enough that I would put any more top coat on it. Now, on to the picspam- these are at a few angles/different lighting to try to capture the polish better!<br />

Final thoughts: I'm actually not a dark polish person, but this one had me changing my mind, honestly! The glitters lighten it up, and give it so much depth that it's really a fascinating color. Application was great, but the glitters were very hungry, so expect to use a lot of topcoat if you like a smooth nail! This one definitely captured the water that District 4 is known for, and all-in-all, it was a winner!<br />

Polish Information: This polish is Painted Polish's Girl on Fire from her Hunger Games collection. It's a red jelly with many sizes of circle glitters. I applied two coats of Girl on Fire over two coats of Sally Hansen's All Fired Up. Since it was a jelly, I wanted to be sure I wouldn't have visible nail line (VNL) for these photos. Application was very smooth and the little glitters slid out easily and plentifully. The bigger glitters were harder to get out, and on all ten nails, I only ended up with two of the large ones. It did have a great shine when the light caught it, and had a multidimensionality of a very red fire, with light catching it and almost looking yellow or orange at certain angles. It did dry a little rough to the touch, so I used two coats of top coat to smooth it out, but that worked well.</div>

Final thoughts: All-in-all, I thought this was a polish well-deserving of its name, Girl on Fire. Application was great and it definitely had a great multidimensionality to it. I love the Hunger Games series, so I was very excited to try these polishes, and this was a really gorgeous one!<br />

“Somewhere a bird sang, its chant hanging plaintive and melancholy in the still air...I think it's a sort of lark or something. Our tradition has it that they sing with the voices of lost lovers. If the stars are smiling on them, you will hear its mate call back in a moment.”<br />

Polish Information: This is Liquid Sky Laquer's Twilight Plumage, a purple/red/blue multichrome with holographic! It applied as perfectly as LSL's other multichrome holographics. Two coats to full coverage (though it was pretty full at just one coat!). I did two coats over butter LONDON basecoat and Julep Freedom topcoat. It dried smoothly as well, no streaks here! The holo was strong with this one as well, so I had to take photos in a bit of shadow to get the multichrome nature to show through. In person, this was not so much of a problem, but cameras can be fickle! Here are a bunch of angles to show the many shades (click on them to make them bigger!):<br />

Final thoughts: This was another gorgeous holographic multichrome from Liquid Sky Lacquer and I'd highly recommend trying them for yourself! Application was great on this one, and coverage was very easy with few coats and no base colors. Plus, the gorgeousness of a multichrome makes it always a gorgeous color at every angle!<br />

Polish Information: This beauty is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Twilight Peacock, a cyan/purple multichrome holographic! Application was great on this one- very smooth, two coats to full coverage. It also had good staying power- over 2 days without any chips! I used butter LONDON basecoat and Julep Freedom topcoat with it. The holographic nature again seems to overshadow the multichrome aspects in bright light, so I took most of the photos in a bit of shade, so you could see the many colors in this polish (and not just the holographic pigment)! Anyway, on to the picspam! For all of them, click on the photo to make it bigger!!<br />

Final thoughts: This was a great one for people who love multichromes and holographics! The holo pigment was very strong and the multichrome nature really shone through. Application was perfect and wear time was good too! It's a winner!<br />

Polish Information: This is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Twilight Hummingbird, which is a holographic green/pink multichrome. Application was easy- 2 coats to full coverage and no streakiness or anything else! I used Butter London's basecoat and the Julep Freedom topcoat. I found the holo overpowered most of the color shifting, but it was there when it was cloudy or you weren't in direct light. It was a subtle soft pink in some lights and green most of the time! Anyway, on to the picspam!<br />

So, I took a picture with flash to show the holographic nature of the polish- side effect: it shows the purple shade. I took a bunch with flash, and always got that color! Here, I am showing two shots- the same shot with and without flash! So crazy!!<br />

Final thoughts: Twilight Hummingbird is a great color for holo and multichrome lovers! The color change is a little more subtle on this one though, so bear that in mind if you like a strong multichrome! Application was perfect however, no undies required!<br />

“What is more cheerful, now, in the fall of the year, than an open-wood-fire? Do you hear those little chirps and twitters coming out of that piece of apple-wood? Those are the ghosts of the robins and blue-birds that sang upon the bough when it was in blossom last Spring. In Summer whole flocks of them come fluttering about the fruit-trees under the window: so I have singing birds all the year round.”<br />
<br />
- Thomas Bailey Aldrich<br />

Polish Information: This is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Mystical Peacock, which is described as "a cyan/purple multichrome." It definitely does hit teal and purple the most- it almost looks like a brighter version of <a href="http://morningnailspiration.blogspot.com/2013/11/liquid-sky-lacquer-bird-of-paradise.html" target="_blank">Bird of Paradise</a>, but it has more blue and less red (though it does get some red at certain angles) if that makes sense. If you are a teal lover, this one is definitely for you! It's teal straight on, which makes the sides of the nails look purple! At certain angles it also had a gold/yellow color. Application on this one was a dream! It glided on smoothly and 2 coats was opaque. I did three coats for good measure, but I really don't think I needed to. It changes color without too much angling too, which makes it a very simple multichrome- there's no mistaking it for anything else!<br />

Final thoughts: This was another gorgeous creation from Liquid Sky Lacquer- a really awesome multichrome that shifts easily between teal and purple and applies like a dream- no streaks here! They are really vivid colors with no undies required. I'd highly recommend it!<br />

“The moment a little boy is concerned with which is a jay and which is a sparrow, he can no longer see the birds or hear them sing.”<br />
<br />
- Eric Berne<br />
<br />
Polish Information: This polish is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Heavenly Hummingbird. It is described as "a silver/green/pink multichrome." Before I read the description, I was thinking silvery purple to green duochrome, with hints of a silvery green in between. Now that I know it's supposed to have silver, green, AND pink (I really see it as more of a purple though)- it makes a bit more sense! In some lights, I can also see a blue! As far as application goes, it seemed to have a bit more dry time and was a bit thinner/streakier than some of the other multichromes from this collection. This one just needed a little more finesse to apply. Once I got 3-4 thin coats on each nail, it was completely smooth and gorgeous. It dried very shiny, but I used BL topcoat (and basecoat) anyway. I waited a while (over half an hour), but I did smudge a couple nails, which tells me that the multiple number of coats I applied probably caused an extra slow dry time. For that reason, you might be better off using it as a topper (over black for maximum effect), but it does become completely opaque in 3-4 thin coats.<br />

And on to the picspam! I'll again show a bunch of angles, so you can try to catch all the changes with the multichrome! It was such a rich, gorgeous green straight on, but had so much dimensionality to it...<br />

Final thoughts: This was a lovely multichrome with a good shift from green to silver to purple/pink! It did have a bit trickier of an application, but was smooth and lovely once you were done! All-in-all, for me it's another winner and a polish well-made.<br />

“Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure.”<br />
<br />
-Stephen King, <i>Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption: A Story from Different Seasons</i><br />
<br />
Polish Information: This beauty is Liquid Sky Lacquer's Bird of Paradise. In the description, she says "Birds are thought to symbolize freedom, as they walk on the earth, swim in the water and soar in the sky. They symbolize the link between heaven and earth. Bird Of Paradise is a blue/red mutlichrome." I love the description, but not nearly as much as I LOVE this polish!!! I have been wearing it for 3 days, it hasn't chipped at all, and I just can't stop staring at it!!!!! It's so much more than a blue/red multichrome! It's purple and it's yellow and it's blue and it's red and it's... everything!<br />

Besides which, let's talk application! Some multichromes come as more of a thin topcoat, so you need to layer them over black. Part of this is because it's not a cheap pigment to add to colors- Liquid Sky Lacquer packed the base full of this pigment so you wouldn't need to layer it over black, and it really makes it an absolutely fabulous multichrome polish!! This was a two-coater to full, and I mean FULL, coverage. I did one very thin and one thicker coat, and I have no VNL at any angle, and the application was smooth and gorgeous! I also used butter LONDON's top and basecoats, but it had a shiny finish without the topcoat. I am seriously in love with this polish. To see these bigger, click on them! :)<br />

It's so difficult to capture the nature of a multichrome, so I am did mash-ups of a bunch of photos to hopefully show you how many different colors you wind up seeing with this beautiful polish! Next, I noticed you could get more of the colors in a photo if you did it with water droplets on the nails (the water forces the light to hit the polish at a different angle where it's located, and so reveals the color of another angle).<br />

Final thoughts: This was an absolute winner and one of my new all-time favorite polishes (and I don't say that lightly)! I can't stop playing with it and admiring the gorgeous colors hidden in it. Application was amazing, and it lasted really well for a good number of days. It's a true winner in my eyes!<br />
