Vapid Lacquer Swatches & Review!!!

Hello all!!! Today I decided to bring back the polish posts! I've had SO many sponsored posts to do lately, that honestly, I haven't had time to do much else, but I've been DYING to show you these colors I received from Smelly Goods & Pretties!!! She makes an indie brand of polish called Vapid Lacquer, and they are SO SO wonderful! 
Months and months ago, when Glambox was still around, I received a color called hypomaniac, and looked at her site to find out more. WELL, what I found was like a million AMAZING holos, and I knew from that point on that I would need to have ALL OF THEM!
So far, I have three of them, and now I'm going to share their greatness with you! 
I'm not the best swatcher by any means, as I'm pretty new at this, and VERY new at swatching acrylics, but you should definitely get the point!

First up, is a fantastic color called Catch Me If You Can. 
This one is an awesome teal polish that has TONS of linear holo. This picture seriously doesn't do it justice. The formula is awesome too. Not streaky at all which is always a bonus, and I'm pretty sure I used two coats here and got full coverage.
Here's a sunlight picture, but it still doesn't do it justice. I LOVE this color. It's so hard to capture how awesome it is with a cellphone camera. If you want to buy it CLICK HERE!

Next is Grapestomp. Out of the original two I purchased, I was the most excited for this one. It's seriously SO SO pretty and has SO MUCH FREAKING HOLO!!!!! I love purple polish, and this is essentially perfect. It's a jelly, so I used like 3 or 4 coats because I like to over compensate but whatever. :P I had a teensy issue with this staining the crap out of my acrylic nails though... but on natural nails. It's a total must have.
This was before I made the mistake of putting on acrylics...
ANND after. For the record, I took this picture at night, with my phone, and there is still THAT much holo. If you want to purchase this bad boy, CLICK HERE!

NEEEXT is Twerk-uoise, which I was lucky enough to receive after my staining incident. I picked this one, because it's just plain pretty, and figured I'd try out something lighter. ANNND swatch!
Just ignore how awful my acrylics look and focus on the polish. It's sooo pretty. This is like three coats, but you could easily get away with two. Again, AMAZING formula, LOTS of holo that you can't see in this picture, and I LOVE IT!  CLICK HERE to buy IT!

I ALSO want to comment on the fact that I got to test out Vapid Lacquer's topcoat, and it is equal to, IF NOT better than HK Girl, which I have been using for months now. So if you're unhappy with your current topcoat, seriously give it a try. It's awesome, dries super fast, doesn't smudge, and is only $6.99! CLICK HERE to buy it! It totally smooths out the polish, seriously.

So there's my thoughts on what I have so far from Vapid Lacquer. Seriously, awesome indie polishes right here. I definitely plan on getting ALOOOT more of them, if not ALL of them. PLUS there's a white holo that is calling my name.


Until next time,
Xx Ashley C.
