Anonymous Lacquer ~ Blue Bloods



Anonymous Lacquer ~ Blue Bloods
Ultra blue linear holo

Today I’m going to show you another one of the Anonymous Lacquers I bought. Blue Bloods is seriously pretty in the bottle, so let’s see if the prettiness tranfers onto the nails, shall we?

The formula was good, but the polish had a tendency to drag when I applied the first coat. You pretty much have to do your nails in three straight strokes in order to avoid it. Fortunately the second coat is very forgiving and I didn’t have any dragging when I applied it. Coverage is really good. Drying time too.

The sun played hide and seek so I gave up the waiting eventually and settled with my flash. Here’s two coats and no topcoat:


I think these rainbows are adorable!


Here’s a low light picture. The colour is slightly dusty, but the rainbows refuse to not shine!


I made a white line down each nail. Then I painted a pink glittery line on each side of the white and one down the middle. The pink striper is from Moyra, I bought it in Hungary and it hasn’t got a name. The more stripes I painted, the more gloopy the polish got, and at the end it felt almost impossible to paint with. But I managed, phew!

Here’s my final result with flash:


And here’s a low light picture.


There’s one layer of topcoat on the picture, but I ended up wearing this with two coats. The gloopy glitter was a bit too bumpy for my liking, so I felt an extra layer was necessary :D

Note: Blue Blood stained my nails. 


Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Really good
Finish: Linear holo
Overall impression: I like it! The colour is nice and the rainbows great. It’s prone to dragging though
Buy again: Yes

    1. Me too! Fortunately it takes a lot for the polishes to stain on my nails :)

  3. Blue Bloods earns its name. I love the holo effect of it, and no strikes or dragging is visible!

  6. On what a stunning blue. Damn staining. Still I'd probably wear it anyway! No one ever sees my naked nails anyway. You did well with the pink glitter.

    1. It isn't much that stains on me, so I'll wear pretty much anything, stains or not. Besides, I always wear polish anyway, so staining doesn't matter :)
      Thank you!
