Philly Loves Lacquer-Three Single Batch Prototypes

Hi All,

I belong to the Philly Loves Lacquer Collective. One of the perks is that sometimes Ester gives us some pretty good deals on polishes that the general public doesn't even hear about. 

For Halloween, she let us have three Single Batch Prototype polishes for an amazing price. Here are the three that I was sent and for once, I am showing some colors that I recently have gotten. Usually, that takes me about a year!

First up is SBP 330. This one is a pretty petal pink that is filled with silver and color shifting shimmer. There is the additional element of irregular shaped color shifting flakes. It took me three coats to get it to the level of coverage that I wanted. This would have been perfect for October and, of course next Spring. 

I love the way the blue shifts play against the pink hue. I did notice that a few of the larger flakes didn't want to lie flat. But, I didn't have a top coat on either and imagine this would have been taken care of with that final step. 

The snaps of SBP 330 were taken in my light-box.

PLL's Coffee On The Stoop And A Change Up

A few week ago, Ester of Philly Loves Lacquer offered a polish to her Facebook group Philly Loves Lacquer Collective. Coffee On The Stoop was created to celebrate her new job as a Starbucks barrista.

Like millions of others, we are addicted to Starbucks and are regular visitors. I even have my, "gimme my discount cup".


And it is dead on Starbucks green with  a lot of extra visual interest going on.



A macro better explains the polish makeup. It includes black stars, black and white glitter of various sizes and shapes, smaller blue holo glitter and and very fine (macro) silver glitter. Or at least I think it's silver.



But the beauty of Coffee On The Stoop is that it works amazing with other polishes. Here is a change up that I wore for Six days. I loved it that much and it wore that long. 


I first put on Orly's Hook Up, then my Coffee and finally topped it of with Nfu Oh's 42. I love greens and this was a Summer green dream polish for me.


Here's my Nailie
