Black Sheep Lacquer's Badass (new version) and Scatter Heart!

Hey-lo everyone! Today I have two more Black Sheep Lacquer polishes to share with you all!

One of them is a new version of the popular Badass (swatched here by me), a lovely green, blue and grey multichrome! The other is a lovely white crelly polish with red hearts and gold squares called Scatter Heart!

Like with my last post I showed both polishes at one coat (so you guys can see how they look) and then added more coats if I wanted a bit more opacity! I also didn't apply a top coat in any of the pictures, so this is exactly what the polishes look like on their own!

Are you getting tired of me saying BSL polishes have amazing formulas? Well I'm sorry, but they do!

Onto the pictures!

Thermal Black Sheep Lacquer Swatches: Smells Like Teen Spirit, Jump In The Fire and Enter Sandman!

Hello everyone! Today I have three lovely thermal Black Sheep Lacquer polishes to share!*

Get ready for a crapload of pictures! I put Erin's "it will stand on it's own at one coat" claim to the test, and I'm happy to say it's no lie! I included a picture of each polish at one coat so you can see for yourself!

All of these polishes had lovely formulas, so let's get to the swatches!

Erin said the pigment she used for this polish was hard to work with, and the streaks of pigment seen here were just from the polish not being mixed enough. So I'm sure she'll do more testing and make sure the ones she sells are mixed well enough!

Thanks so much for having a look everyone! Erin sent me 6 other lovelies last week so I'll have two more Black Sheep Lacquer posts coming your way, including four new duochromes that are being released as I swatch them! Check out her Etsy shop here, all three polishes featured in this post are up for sale already!

*These polishes were generously sent to me for swatching purposes.

Rainbow Zig Zag Nail Art!

Hello everyone! Today I have some super fun and cute zig zag nail art to share!

My nails may look a bit bumpy here because I've decided to start a more serious no-buy, despite the fact that I'm almost out of top coat! I'm trying to conserve what little I have left, especially because I often paint other people's nails!

For this look I used a nail art brush I got off of eBay and then cut almost all of the bristles off of. I started off with two coats of OPI Care to Danse? for a sheer base! Then I just dabbed a drop of one colour at a time on a stack of paper and went to work!

Onto the pictures and names of the colours!

Zig Zag Nail Art

From thumb to pinky: Essie DJ Play that Song, Essie Bobbing for Baubles, Essie Tart Deco, Essie Mod Square, and NOPI "Baby" Blue!

Thanks for reading everybody! I'm back into nail art and feeling more like myself, so expect more fun designs! If you guys ever have any requests for a certain colour comparison post, a swatch of a colour, a review of a nail care product, or a certain kind of nail art and/or tutorial just let me know in the comments or on another of my social media pages! :)

More Black Sheep Lacquer Swatches: Punk Rock Penny, Orange Crush, Under the Bridge, Paradise City, and First Polish on the Moon!

Hey everybody! Today I got some Black Sheep Lacquer polishes in the mail to swatch! I also got some Hex Nail Jewelry that I'll be posting about soon!

I have a bunch of things on their way to me (mostly polish-related items) from before I started my no-buy month that I'm really excited about! I bought some glitters from YouMix a week or so ago and I'm really excited to do some individually placed glitter manis with them! I'm most excited that my Jeffrey Campbell Litas arrived though! I've started posting OOTDs on my Instagram so if you're interested go ahead and follow me here!

Anyways, all of these polishes had lovely unproblematic formulas, so onto the swatches!

I reswatched this one because the pictures I got of it last time weren't that good, and because the author of Blueberry Nails wanted to know how it'd look without a white base!
