Today I have the Philly Loves Lacquer summer collection, Bright Stuff Baby. Bright Neon Holographic polishes! For my pictures I did NOT use a white undie. Just a base coat (Sweet and Sour Lacquer Smoothing Sauce). These came out a while ago, but I already bought a couple of neon collections and didn't want to buy any more. For some reason I kept thinking about them and then they went on sale and there were mini's! I was sold. The holo is more apparent in the bottle, but it still shows up on the nail. The lighter shades like the yellow are a bit harder to see in camera and on the nail. I did not encounter ANY staining on my nails, skin or cuticles with these. Very easy to remove with a cotton ball and non acetone remover. Without further adu <is that how you spell that? Lol> here's the collection.
Hip Hop Marmalade
Here's the neon pink in the collection. I love these types of neon pink, that lean a bit more lighter and coral than the other one in this collection which leans more purple.
I really like this collection a lot. They were very easy to use. I was worried about being a mini if I would be able to control the polish and the brush. Very easy to use! They go on super smooth. If you're not careful, you can flood your cuticles, not that I did that or anything...haha, but yes, super smooth and easy to apply. I did 2 coats in my swatch.
We've Got It Glowin' On
I am REALLY digging orange polishes lately, especially orange neons. I wore Colores De Carol- Summer Means New Love and I was in love! This is such a bright neon orange I love it! I was told it makes it look like I have a tan on haha. I'll take that compliment!
I think Esther really nailed this collection with it's colors. This is a great shade of orange! In my swatch, I did 2 coats.
Sunshine After The Rain
This song was stuck in my head for 2 days when I had this polish on. I love that this isn't a highlighter yellow, or a yellow-green yellow neon color. A sunshine yellow color. So bright and pretty!
In my swatch I used 3 coats to make it bright and opaque. The first coat was a tad too streaky and sheer for me. This was the only bottle that didn't come with the brand label. Whoopsie. It's ok, I don't plan on getting rid of these polishes at all!
Oh yikes! I didn't realize my pictures were so out of focus! That's how bright these babies are!
This Lime Around
This one is my favorite! I love greens! This is the only one I wore for a few days before taking it off.
This is the only other polish where I thought 3 coats was best. I felt it was too streaky and sheer like the yellow to be left at 2 coats. 3 I felt also brought out the color more.
This was hard to capture the holo on camera. Sigh.
Blue Kids On The Block
Hello 90's! You can't not get excited...New Kids On The Block...Blue Kids On The Block...yes yes.
This one was also a little bit harder to capture the true color on camera. I'm still learning how to use that thing.
Pinking Of You
You made it to the end! Yay! *High Five* This says pink in the label, but honestly this is more purple to me...and I'm hoping that's what is, other wise, why have 2 pinks??
Dang, I really need to start wearing my glasses, I thought that last bottle shot was ok, clearly out of focus. Nuts. Here's my swatch of the final shade! 2 coats.
Well that's all she wrote folks! I hope you enjoyed this, or at least enjoyed scrolling through the pictures. No harm done, I completely understand. I have low patience as well. Anyways, Happy polishing and I'll see ya in my next post!
