Wednesdays We Wear Pink – Featuring a Fleeting Fancy from NerdLacquer

Mar22

Nothing to Disclose

Helloooo, Readers!  It’s been so long since I’ve done a Wednesdays We Wear Pink so I think we’re ready for a new one!  Today I’m going to show you one of my NerdLacquer polishes from my collection, Resolutionary!

NerdLacquer – Resolutionary

Resolutionary is a salmon pink crelly filled with all kinds of glittery goodness!  Floating in the crelly base there are tiny metallic gold hexes in a couple of small sizes, a smattering medium-sized metallic magenta hexes, and itsy bitsy teensie metallic magenta dots.

The application on this is lovely.  Pictures show two coats.  No coaxing or fishing for this application.  The larger magenta hexes are sparse this way but I prefer that, I think too many of them would overwhelm everything else.  Honestly, I have gotten really excellent applications from NerdLacquer.  There are just some brands that have nailed the carefully-crafted crelly glitter and NerdLacquer is one of them.

Sadly, I have also included this post in the Fleeting Fancy series since Resolutionary is no longer available.  However, NerdLacquer is still cranking out amazing glitter-bomb polishes.  Make sure to check out the stalker links below:

Nerd Lacquer – Swatches and Review

Hello my wonderful readers!  I’m delighted to be back to blogging on a kind of regular basis.  I hope ya’ll are liking it too!

Today I’m going to show you a NerdLacquer polish.  Now, I know there has been a good amount of scuttlebutt in the indie polish community but I still like NerdLacquer polishes and I think other people do too.  I personally have not ever had a bad experience and I assure you that if/when I do I will be certain to tell you about it.  Enough of this part though…let’s get down to nail polish, that’s what we’re all here for!

Today I’m reviewing Rheingold:

I really love the color of this one it’s a slightly blackened teal jelly polish filled with black and gold micro-glitter, metallic gold dots, and matte black hex glitters.  There’s a shimmer to it too.  It’s a lovely glitter jelly polish that isn’t so heavy on the glitter but has a really good balance.

Formula and application on this was really quite good.  It didn’t require any fishing for glitter and I got a decent spread.  It’s sheer but builds to opacity in about two coats, I put a little extra on the tips of my nails here because they were so long and the nail line was quite prominent.  It was also not “topcoat hungry” and smoothed out with my usual topcoat very well.  Pictures show two coats plus topcoat.

NerdLacquer doesn’t maintain any social media and their restocks are silent.  You just have to watch the site.  In recent months things have been pretty well stocked and she has a good variety of geek-themed polishes.  Pertinent link below.
