Dollish Polish Super Bubblicious!

Hi everyone! Today (like many other days) I have a swatch of a lovely indie polish for you!

This is Dollish Polish Super Bubblicious and it was a pleasure to work with! Many bloggers claim this polish is a three-coater, but I think I apply thicker coats when working with jelly/crelly polishes or just in general, so I got away with just two coats! I also added a coat of top coat before taking the photos, so the pictures show two (thick) coats and a coat of Essie Good To Go top coat!

I apologize for the sad, dry skin around my nails in these photos, I had two big midterms last week and my cuticles and hands were neglected!

Anyways, onto the photos!

Black Sheep Lacquer Swatches UPDATED: Grab Your Toque, Tequila Sunrise and Space Cowboy!

Hello everyone! I'm vacationing a few hours from home at a cool beach for a few days, so naturally, I brought around thirty polishes with me! I have the remaining three Black Sheep Lacquer polishes I own so far all swatched for you lovelies! The two glitter toppers were generously sent to me for swatches, but I bought the other one myself! All had awesome formulas as I've come to expect with Black Sheep Lacquer polishes, so this post is not an in-depth review but a bit of a swatch fest!

Onto the polishes!


Undies for the first polish I have to show you guys! Left to right (or pinky to thumb) excluding repeats: OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, Orly Liquid Vinyl, and American Apparel Poppy! I managed to only use one coat of each of these undies by using a thick coat!

Black Sheep Lacquer Grab Your Toque

UPDATE: This glitter topper is called Grab Your Toque and it's filled with small red and matte white hexes, even smaller matte white squares and silver shimmer! This is just one coat over my undies!

Undies for the second polish! Left to right (or pinky to thumb) excluding repeats: Color Club Almost Famous, OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, and Essie Mod Square! Again, this is just one thick coat of each undie!

Black Sheep Lacquer Tequila Sunrise

UPDATE: This glitter topper is called Tequila Sunrise and it has tiny neon yellow glitters, tiny gold holographic glitters, and large and small neon pink matte square glitters! SECOND UPDATE: Black Sheep Lacquer has recently put out another polish called Tequila Sunrise, and the new one (not this one) is the only one available for purchase at this time. So I'm pretty sure this glitter topper one has been discontinued!

Black Sheep Lacquer Space Cowboy

Lastly, I have Space Cowboy to show you guys! As with many neons, this polish's true colour won't translate to pictures. I actually checked to see if this polish glowed in the dark because it's so neon and bright! Imagine a glowing neon Creamsicle, that's what this polish actually looks like! Space Cowboy is a neon orange jelly with medium-sized matte yellow and blue hexes, large matte blue hexes, and a few tiny neon orange particles/glitters! This swatch shows just two coats!

Thanks for reading everyone! I'll be doing some real nail art for the first time in a while today or tomorrow and I'll be posting it tomorrow! :)

Dollish Polish Swatches and Review!

This is a big and picture-heavy post, with reviews and swatches/partial swatches of five awesomely-formulated Dollish Polish polishes I recently purchased! Below is the mani I did yesterday with three of the five polishes, their names can be found below. Unfortunately I didn't clean up my nails before I took these pictures, but I think you can hardly tell :).

Dollish Polish Super Bubblicious


Super Bubblicious is a beautiful pale blue jelly with white bar glitter, tiny white square glitter, small blue hexagon glitter, large pink hexagon and square glitter, and large dark blue square glitter. This polish would probably look best with three coats. For these pictures I only used two thick coats and as you can see, it's slightly streaky.

Dollish Polish I <3 Nerds

I <3 Nerds is an adorable medium pink crelly with tiny round purple and blue glitter, small dark blue square glitter, and large pink and light blue square glitter. This polish is perfect at two coats, as you can see in these pictures!

Dollish Polish Juicy Contradiction

Juicy Contradiction is a pale-ish yellow jelly with very tiny round red glitters, and tiny round orange glitters. This polish seemed the most sheer out of the three coloured polishes I bought, but I used the thinnest coats with this polish. I used three coats in the swatches you see here =).

I tested the two glitter toppers on top of the pedicure I posted a little while ago here!



Toad-ally Awesome is a whole bunch of glitter in a clear suspension base, including teeny teeny tiny dark blue glitter, small gold hexagon and square glitter, small white hexagon and square glitter, large red and white hexagon glitter, and large blue square/rectangular glitter. It was really easy to get at the different glitters despite the settling and sinkage of them :).




Putting On The Ritzzz! consists of tiny, small, and large white and black hexagonal glitter in a clear suspension base. The glitters in this polish were also really easy to get on the nail, I actually painted this on the same way you'd paint on a cream polish!



Thank you so much for reading!

First Attempt at a Jelly Sandwich :)

This is just one coat of China Glaze's Ride The Waves, one coat of Sally Hansen's In The Spotlight, and then another coat of Ride The Waves (and base and top coat)! I think this almost looks like gel polish because it's so smooth, shiny, and jelly-like :).

Revlon's Royal

Haven't decided what to put on these so they're just plain! I quite like them though :). Pictured with and without flash, warning VNL ahead!
