Too Fancy Lacquer ~ Starry
Eyes
Turquoise linear holo
Starry Eyes is a lovely turquoise! The formula is good and the polish is
easy to work with. I used two coats for full opacity and the drying time
between the coats is good. The polish seemed to thicken up as I polished, so it
might need a bit of thinner next time I use it. That’s just a minor thing.
Here’s what the prettiness looks like. Two coats, no topcoat, picture
taken with flash:
I love the colour, it’s gorgeous!
The rainbows could be more prominent
but I like it nonetheless!
Q: What makes a holographic polish look even better?
A: Glitter
So I added glitter. I used a turquoise glitter from El Corazón’s
Confetti collection. It’s number 503a. I taped my nails and painted a layer of
glitter on the tips. When that was dry I made small dots across the “line” with
Love & Beauty’s Sand Lacquer called “Blue Jewel”. I finished my mani with a
layer of topcoat.
Here’s the whole thing with flash:
And here’s a low light picture.

Overall impression: It’s a
pretty colour and I like the rainbows. The polish is definitely prettier in the
sunshine than out of it.
Buy again: Yes
I bought the Too Fancy
Lacquer in Edgy Polish’s webshop right here.
That's a lovely holo! I love the glitter addition :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I thought it would be cool to mix holo and glitter :)
DeleteI like Too Fancy Lacquers a lot and this one is no exception. Nice pick of colours.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I think I should wear them more often though :)
DeleteI think I might need this one - I have been reluctant, but it's gorgeous - alone and with glitter LOL
ReplyDeleteI think many of the TFL's thicken a bit while polishing, not in the bad way, but they seem to be OK when you open them again later....
This would look so cool on you, so hesitate no more! :D
DeleteIt's true, they do. So you don't add thinner the second time around? :)
The glitter tips are so cute! I like such bright turquoise colors for summer a lot! But the cool color is also nice for winter.
ReplyDeleteI try to wear whatever I feel like all year 'round. Although I do turn towards darker colours in the winter :)
DeleteYay holo and glittah! Sooooo pretty :)
