Liquid Sky Lacquers ~ Mulled
Wine
Pink linear holo
This polish is described as both red, burgundy and wine red, but my
bottle of Mulled wine isn’t any of that: It’s pink.
It’s one of them crazy holos: Easy to apply, average drying time and
good coverage. Two coats is what it takes.
Here is a pic of two coats, no top coat. Isn’t this just pink?
These two first pics are flash pictures.
Here’s a low light picture. As you can see, there are still rainbows.
But it’s definitely not burgundy!
I stamped on it. I found a motif on Moyou London’s stamping plate
“Princess Collection-13”
and stamped with a Sally Hansen Insta-Dri called “Wined Up”. I thought the name
was appropriate! :D I sealed it up with a layer of Ellagee’s topcoat “Glass”,
and here’s the final mani taken with flash:
And here’s a non-flash picture.
This is the first time Glass pulled on my stamping design, dagnabbit! It
shows more on pictures than it does in real life, so I am sure it’s only me who
notices it. But you know: We’re all our own worst critics! :)
Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Average
Drying time: Average
Durability: Good
Finish: Strong linear holo
Overall impression: The colour isn’t quite me; it’s isn’t bold enough, but the stamping sorted out that little problem quite nicely.

Hm, it is pretty pink for a polish that has wine in its name. Still, it's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI think it's pretty too, I like it even though I thought it would be darker :)
DeleteNice :) Not exactly my type, but it isn't bad :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, it's good to hear that :)
DeleteI agree, it's pink, and while that is OK too - I surely would have been a bit unhappy if I expected a wine purple/red...
ReplyDeleteI was quite surprised to see the actual colour, but I like it anyway :)
DeleteI must admit it quite like the colour and the stamping is just so pretty and really goes well with the holo :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, it's good to hear that :)
DeleteBeautiful holo, and I love the stamping color you chose to complement it.
ReplyDeleteI am thrilled to hear that, thank you :)
