LIQUID SKY LAQUER: At Dusk, Moonless Night, Molten Gold & Valentine Surprise

Pin It It's felt weird taking so long off from posting! I wish the break was for other circumstances other than surgery, but it happens!



Today I have a few polishes from Liquid Sky Lacquer! I got these before Christmas and I'm just now finally able to post, yikes! Thankfully she's been understanding and thankfully, half of these polishes are now on her site for you to purchase! YAY!

Swatch and review after the jump, check it out :]

My obligatory bottle shots:



And onward we go!

I really liked At Dusk! I'm not sure why it looked somewhat thick on my nails, it wasn't. Silly camera... stop making me look bad! At Dusk is a build-able grape jelly polish with bright purple glitter. I like how the brighter purple shines through the jelly, such a great look!

I did 3 coats of At Dusk, sans top coat and undies. It had a smooth formula and an okay dry time. If you don't have the patience to let it dry between coats, I'd say skip this one. But if you do, the pay off is worth it!

This is my favorite out of the 4 I was sent. It's a GORGEOUS polish. It kind of reminds me of a less gold version Zoya Crystal. Moonless Night is a smooth metallic blue with gold flakes through out. In Carolyn's description she mentions "a color shift to green to purple" found in Moonless Night, it can also be seen in her swatches. I noticed the purple shift in the bottle (you can see on the edges of the bottle shots above), no green, but I didn't see it on the nail. No matter how hard I tried! Hmmm...

Anyhow!  This was a flawless 1 coater for me, which made me a happy camper! It also seemed to have a suede like finish to it, it didn't dry glossy and it didn't dry totally matte. I enjoyed the finish, it lets the gold stand out more. In addition to being a 1 coater, it also dried in good time.

Molten Gold REALLY does look like molten gold, huh? This is a pretty color, it's just not pretty on me haha. It makes my hands look supppppper red. And that was after I was forced to edit to tone down some of the redness, yikes! Anyways, enough about MY problems! 

Molten Gold is a warm yellow-gold with holo shimmer through out. It also has a slight metallic finish to it. The one thing I DID like about this polish, is similar mainstream colors I own are usually streaky looking; this wasn't streaky at all.

I did 2 coats, no top coat or undies. This had a nice smooth application and a good dry time. No issues with this one :]

Last but not least!

Just in time for Valentine's Day! My favorite hated holiday of the year! Haha LSL describes Valentine Surprise as "a clear base with small white and red bar glitter, small pink and red hex glitter, fine red glitter, fine iridescent glitter, and red heart glitter". It really is a pretty glitter, and (sadly bahaha!) it channels Valentine's Day very well! 

I did 1 coat over each of the polishes I swatched above! No digging for any glitter, and no dipping and dabbing for this one. Not sure how I got hearts ONLY on my index finger haha, I wasn't trying to get the hearts though. That's just how they came out of the bottle ;]

2 of these polishes are available in Liquid Sky Lacquer's shop now: Valentine Surprise and Moonless Night. The other 2 will be released shortly.
