Too Fancy Lacquer ~ Orchid of 2014 & Keep Calm and Be Fancy



Too Fancy Lacquer ~ Orchid of 2014 & Keep Calm and Be Fancy

Today I’ve got two Too Fancy Lacquers to show you.

First one up is Orchid of 2014 – and orchid coloured linear holo which was made in honour of the Pantone colour of the year which is: Orchid!

Application was easy, the formula is really good and the polish covers in two easy coats. Drying time between the coats was good.

Here’s two coats, no topcoat:


It’s so nice to have sunshine available when I slap on a holo.


The holo is not “in yer face” but it’s definitely there.


I like this polish, but I honestly wasn’t in the mood to actually wear it, so I removed it again and moved right on to:

Keep Calm and Be Fancy. It’s a blue teal linear holo and it’s my colour if there ever was such a thing!

Formula is perfect and if you’re careful with application it covers in one single coat. Yes, one! I wasn’t careful though so I added a second coat to even out my irregularities. Drying time is good, no worries there.

Here’s what it looks like: Two coats, no topcoat, pic taken with flash (sun was hiding, grrr!)


I feel like swooning over this!


I striped it! I made three diagonal stripes on each nail, black and pink. And girls, I dig this!!


Here’s a low light picture:  



Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good
Finish: Linear holos, the Keep Calm way stronger than the Orchid
Overall impression: I’m especially impressed by Keep Calm and Be Fancy. It’s my colour and the holo effect is just as powerful as I love it. Orchid is nice too, but a more discrete polish.
Buy again: Yes


You can buy Too Fancy Lacquers in Edgy Polish’s webshop right here.

  1. To be honest I feel the same way of Orchid of 2014, it's a bit too pale, maybe if the holo had been stronger...
    But I like the look of the other one ;)

    1. Yes! The holo should have been way stronger, then I'd be all over the place :D
