A wintery mix from Avant Garde Lacquer

*Press sample sent for review

I had the pleasure to get my finger tips on some amazing festive polishes, or should I say my finger tips had the pleasure...... anyway..... I have these gorgeous polishes to share with you today from Avant Garde Lacquer. This post is going to be a little different in that I am awaiting the second half of a collab with one of the polishes. They will be a duo, and I can't wait to have them together!!! :)  Once it arrives I will repost the 2 together with their respective other halves. SO without further ado, here are a some eye catching goodies for you.... 


 Peppermint Schnaaps (outside direct sunlight)
a stunning red and white glitter topper in a clear base FULL of gold shifting tiny flakes. This is stunning and not your typical red and white topper. That gold just adds some kind of pizzazz that you won't get 
from any others. I have a thin layer over Sally Hansen Going Green. The formula on these are 
outstanding! They are not all all goopy like some store bought glitter toppers.
 If you are a collector you most definitely will want this one in your collection. Beautiful holiday polish!

Sinful Colors Silver Rainbows

The last time I ran into Walgreen's they had their Christmas Sinful Colors display up. A lot of them were ones that I had something similar to, so I ended up only getting one. Now they did have a whole line of colored bar glitter polishes. I don't really care for bar glitters all that much, and polishes that are ONLY bar glitter tend to not be my cup of tea. BUT the one I picked up IS an all bar glitter polish. I thought what the heck let's give this bad boy a try. It's super lovely in the bottle, so I figured I'd give it a go, and if I liked it I would go back for some others. I picked up Silver Rainbows. It's a colorful polish of purple, magenta and green metallic bar glitters in a clear base. I put a coat over Avant Garde Lacquer Snow Day, to show the colors better. I have to say the color combo is one of my favorite. The formula is fine. The application is even okay. I just can't get bar glitters to work for me. They stick up and out and off the tip of my nail. But that is all personal preference. Otherwise this polish is great. :) I know they had an all white bar glitter polish, and all black. So definitely some to look out for and grab if you don't mind bar glitters! :)

Beautiful colors!!!

Zoya Payton

And now for the gorgeous Zoya Payton!! Yay!! An overly amazing, darker Autumn color. Completely glorious! The formula is to die for and the application (AS ALWAYS) is flawless. I can't get over how much I love this brand. I know it sounds completely redundant, but I just have to say it!  The stunning Payton is from the winter 2013 Zenith collection. This is the other polish I got when Zoya had their Halloween Trick or Treat special!! I am sooooo super glad I choose this one. It will most likely be with me on Thanksgiving Day!! It's THAT beautiful! Payton is a cranberry/plum heavily holo-ed polish, that was completely opaque on my nails in 3 thin coats! Sounds pretty scrum-didily-umptious if you ask me!  Even the description is edible!

This is another of my million reasons why I absolutely adore Zoya and love Autumn!!

Avant Garde Lacquer featuring Sprinkled, Snow Day and Purple Haze

                                                                                                                                                           *Press sample sent for review

Some more pretties from Avant Garde Lacquer fell upon my fingertips that I must gush about!! I'm tellin' ya... more and more I am finding myself hoarding more and more polish. I once got to a point where I said..... "you REALLY don't need that".... then I told my rational side of my brain to STUFF IT!!! I just can't get enough. And well face it, when you see polish like these... it's a simple no brainer! (PIC HEAVY)


Purple Haze (outside direct sunlight)....
an amazing purple/steel gray. pinkish, green metallic shift with holo dust throughout! This is the most indescribable polish I own and one of the most incredible too! This polish changes at every angle and every change in light. This is 3 thin coats.

Snow Day (outside direct sunlight)....
a white creme holo, you won't want to miss. This polish has stunning light play. The holo is hard to capture but most certainly there. With a gorgeous pink and blue shift in different lighting. This will definitely grab some attention on your nails. This is 3 thin coats! 

Snow Day (outside direct sunlight)....
see that pink!

Sprinkled (outside direct sunlight)....
I have been dying to post this polish. An electric pink holo with iridescent shifts, and different sizes of hex glitters. This will turn heads and steal all the attention within miles around you! Be careful while driving because, with this on,  you just might (NO YOU WILL) stop traffic!! Be ready to be the center of attention. This is 3 thin coats.... and an amazing, glide-on-like-buttah, formula!

I normally don't call names... but you'd be foolish NOT to grab these up!!
