Whimsical Ideas by Pam's Once Upon A Time

My first whimsy! This is Once Upon A Time from her Halloween collection. How could I say no to this one when my fav 2 colors are involved?! In addition, I had Essie Navigate Her and Sally Hansen Lacey Lilac sitting right in front of my when this cutie came in, so I couldn't resist. Just a quick pic. It's blurry but its so pretty! And I figured I'd write up a quick post because Whimsical Ideas By Pam shared it on their page! (Thanks again Pam!!) So it must not be too shabby. This polish is a dream to apply and to wear. Here it is!


Overall Grade:
A

Lucky 13 Wrap-up and Giveaway!

This week I've been featuring a series of 4 polishes from Lucky 13 Lacquer. The collection is inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas.





First we had Bone Daddy. A black and white glitter inspired by Jack's pinstriped suit.




Then there was Zero. Various sizes of white hexes and squares as well as red squares. Inspired by Jack's dog Zero.




Then there was my personal favorite, Ragdoll. Lavender, teal, yellow, brown, and gunmetal glitters in a clear base, reminiscent of Sally's patchwork dress.



 And last but not least is the most Halloween-y of them all, Pumpkin King. Black and orange hexes as well as matte orange hexes. 




 And that's it!

Lucky 13's Pumpkin King

Here's the last in a series of 4 polishes from Lucky 13 Lacquer. The collection is inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas.



 
Today's polish is Pumpkin King. Let's see Lucky 13's description: "Matte hot orange bars, shiny orange hex, and matte black hex glitters. Inspired by the burning Pumpking King, ". Here's a cool pic I found online. :)
 This polish is the perfect Halloween polish. Formula was great. You'll absolutely need topcoat, it's got so much glitter in it that it becomes a bit rough. Wanna see pics? Well okay. Here it is.
 2 coats, 3 coats, 1 coat
 This pic makes me self-conscious about my palm size. :)



 Oh hey a sunset.
What do you think of it?

Lucky 13's Zero

Here's the second in a series of 4 polishes from Lucky 13 Lacquer. The collection is inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas.

 
Today's polish "Zero" is inspired by Jack's ghost dog, Zero. Described by Lucky 13: "Ultra-fine white hex, small white square, and medium red square glitters. Inspired by Jack's faithful companion, Zero," . 
 
 
And yep, this beautiful polish really does look like zero. Formula is beautiful. Easy to apply, and the outcome is stunning. This would also be a great polish around Christmas, maybe over a dark green. :) Here it is you guys!







2 coats, 2 coats.

Lucky 13's Nightmare Collection.

I was lucky enough for Kyoti Jess of Kyoti's Nails and Lucky 13 Lacquer to take a liking to me! That resulted in me being of the first to be able to review her awesome new Nightmare collection of polishes. Here is what she says about them:

"Inspired by Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas, this 4-piece collection is perfect for Halloween and all year 'round. All polishes have clear bases and can be layered over any color."

The polishes are:
Ragdoll.
Bone Daddy.
Pumpkin King.
and
Zero. 

The polishes look just like you've painted that character on your nails. Awesome if you're a lacquer lover, even awesome-r if you have a creepy goth side and love The Nightmare Before Christmas! :) (like me)

So thus starts the series of posts I will bring to you about these polishes. You can buy them here.
