Black Cat Lacquer Demeter

I have a pretty polish from Black Cat Lacquer to share with you today. I recently was gifted some Black Cat Lacquer's in a gift exchange that were on my wishlist. I've been trying to step up my indie game this year. I'm pretty slow at it, I admit, but I'm enjoying all that I've picked up. This color is no exception.

Demeter

Demeter is a pastel teal crelly base with teal holographic glitters.

Collection: Black Cat Lacquer Goddess Collection Spring 2014

Color: This is beautiful softened and muted teal shade. I love this color! I also love that it's a crelly glitter. Crelly glitters and jelly glitters are my favorite. I like how the glitter coincides with this base. This a beautiful glitter polish, but it's more subtle than multi-colored glitters.

Formula: Excellent and easy to use formula. I used 2 coats above.

Price: This is $9 on the Black Cat Lacquer website.

Overall: Demeter is a beautiful glitter crelly polish. I love the color. The formula is great. I love that it's a simpler glitter, but still has the bling factor. I really gravitate toward colors like this because they give me the glitz, but don't go overboard.

My Rating: 5 out of 5 Paint Splatters

Happy Monday!

Black Cat Lacquer Nocturne

I've been trying to brand out into more indies this year, and I've been so impressed with my finds. I don't know how all of you indie fans keep track of so many out there. There are just so many and so many are excellent. I wish I had endless money, that would make the whole indie things a lot easier. This next polish from Black Cat Lacquer is one I'm really liking!

Nocture

 Nocturne is a black jelly filled with gold holo glitters with gold shimmer.

Collection: Black Cat Lacquer Fall 2014

Color: I love black and gold together. In fact, as you may know, I love gold with pretty much any color. I think gold is so underdone when it comes to glitters and shimmers. It's typically always colors paired with silver glitters or shimmer. I love the combination of color here especially with the gold holographic glitter.

Formula: I have to be honest I wasn't expecting to be impressed here, but I was. Black jellies with glitters tend to have funky/messy formulas or the base drowns out the glitter. None of that here at all. This formula was perfect. The ratio of base to glitter was balanced perfectly, and I was able to apply this effortlessly. No digging for glitters or dabbing polish at all.

Price: This is $9 on the Black Cat Lacquer website.

Overall: I'm very impressed with Nocturne. It's an fabulous jelly glitter. I love the color combination and the formula blew me away. Awesome polish!

Black Cat Lacquer Artemis

I have a new to me indie brand to share with you today. Keep in mind, this brand isn't new, it's just new to my stash! I was perusing Black Cat Lacquer's website a little while ago and saw quite a few polishes that caught my eye. I ended up receiving a few in a recent gift exchange, and have been really impressed with them. This is one of the ones I received.

Artemis 

Artemis is a sky blue crelly (creme + jelly)  base with pastel blue holo glitters.

Collection: Black Cat Lacquer Goddess Collection Spring 2014

Color: I find crellies like this harder to find. It's easy to find very pale or white crellies with contrasting glitters. I love the monochromatic look of this medium toned blue with similarly toned glitter. It's not a subtle at all like you might think. It's a beautiful glittery polish. This shade of blue is perfect too.

Formula: Excellent and superb formula. I typically have application and formula issues with crellies. This was a breeze. This applied so easily, and I had no trouble getting the glitters on my nail. This was a perfectly blended and balanced nail polish.

Price: This is $9.00 on the Black Cat Lacquer website.

Overall: Artemis is an excellent polish. I love the color and look of the glitter. I don't make my way around many indies, and this is one I'm so pleased I have tried. I am very impressed with all aspects of this polish. Black Cat Lacquer is a definitely a brand I will be re-visiting!
