VIVID LACQUER: Mega Slut, Dragon Fetish, VL006, VL008

Vivid Lacquer Mega Slut (L),  Dragon Fetish (R),
and stamping plates

Long time no post... Okay not that long lmfao. I've been without WIFI since Wednesday, #firstworldproblems haha Today I have 2 polishes and 2 stamping plates made by Vivid Lacquer! After the jump I have swatches and nail art I created with the plates :)

First up is Mega Slut. This is a "bright pink polish with raspberry holo glitter and pink shimmer". I really love how the shimmery flakies in this one! It kinda gives it a 3D effect, I think haha or I'm crazy :P

I did 3 coats alone for opacity. It dries quickly because it has a fairly thin formula. I had some noticeable balding but with the 3rd coat evened it out. No major issues at all.

I was super excited to try this polish. When I took it out of the bubble wrap I went "OOOHHHHHH!!!!" Haha. Dragon Fetish is "a berry red/green duochrome crelly". I couldn't of been more excited when the synchromesh effect transferred perfectly on the nail!

This formula was also a bit thin, I needed 4 coats of Dragon Fetish. The thinner formula allows for a shorter drying time, which I'm okay with. I'm not sure if its just my bottle or what, but I noticed like... Pigment clumps? I shook the bottle and tried to smooth them out as much as I could. They weren't noticeable if you smooth them out, otherwise they kinda look like specks of something on your nail. Otherwise, no issues.

I had a Vivid Lacquer plate waiting at my parents for me. I could twitch because I'm so excited to have it in my hands on Monday lmao. In the meantime, Vivid Lacquer sent me 2 plates to play with.

The VL006 mani is my favorite, I think it's the colors haha. I really love the recessed look of the flowers on my accent fingbee with the VL008 mani. It looks SO cool. These images are intricate and fun. I didn't have any issues with VL006. Everything seemed to pickup well and the images were crisp. I tried it on some paper, should of showed you lmao *facepalm*. VL008 was just as crisp image-wise; however, I did have issues with the "bee lines". I couldn't seem to get them to pick up :( I tried my usual stamping black and white, no beans. I might try again at another time. In general I didn't have any issues with these plates. The designs are super unique and I can't wait to have the one I ordered in my hands... I also NEED to get my hands on that dinosaur one :P
