Too Fancy Lacquer ~ Come to
the Dark Side
Black strong linear holo
I remember when Too Fancy Lacquer was still an unknown brand – and I
also saw how it exploded when the bloggers and the Facebook users discovered
how cool the brand was.
Today I’m going to show you the black one out of three: Come to the Dark
Side. The formula is no less than great; I didn’t experience any problems with
application. This devil (I hesitate to call it “this baby” because of the name,
hahaha!) doesn’t require a special aqua basecoat. Drying time is good, and the
polish is extremely opaque. One coat, and it was in fact opaque. I applied a
second coat out of habit and to see if it made a difference, but it didn’t. So
yes, it’s a one coater!
Let me show you what it looks like. Two coats, no topcoat, picture taken

I’m not usually a fan of completely black polishes, but the holo flame
makes this polish lovely!
I mean, look at that!
One last shot with flash:
And here’s what it looks like without flash:
I decided to add glittah!! I used a red & silver glitter in a clear
base from Revlon called Slipper. I sponged the glitter onto the base of my
nails. I finished with a layer of H K Girl topcoat, and here’s the final mani:
I love red, black and silver together, so yes, this is a winner to me!
Verdict:
This polish definitely lived up to my high expectations! The quality is
good and so is the coverage and the drying time. And the holo effect is really
cool. The only thing that misses is a second part to the name saying “we’ve got
cookies”, but oh well :D Yes, this one gets polished thumbs up from me!
Number of coats: 2 (1 would
have been enough!)
Drying time: Fast
