Takko Tuesday! - Curiouser & Curiouser

Happy Takko Tuesday!

Well, it is late here but by the time this post goes up it will still be Tuesday somewhere.  For your late night viewing pleasure, I have a hands down crowd favorite from Takko Lacquer.  "Curiouser & Curiouser" released last August and was the polish that all the Takkito fans were talking about.  It's all because of the intense turquoise/green microshimmer.  It really shines through the minty base color of this polish.  And who doesn't love a lovely mint polish?  The formula was a little streaky, so I needed three coats to even it all out.  I topped this with a glossy top coat to really make that shimmer pop.  So pretty!

Enchanted Polish A Little Fishy Told Me

I normally try not to share photos of polishes that are hard to obtain (without spending a fortune), but since this polish was for a good cause and was available as a pre-order for an extended period of time, I don't mind sharing it here. This is Enchanted Polish A Little Fishy Told Me. This polish was made in honor of Talia Joy and part of the proceeds went to support BASE Camp.

Although I don't normally wear light or pastel colors on my nails, I got a lot of compliments when I wore A Little Fishy Told Me. It's a pale mint blue (it's not really a mint green) with subtle shimmer and linear holographic. It's a very gorgeous color, and I actually enjoyed wearing it a lot.

The formula for A Little Fishy was similar to other Enchanted Polishes, not fantastic but not terrible (hopefully no one kills me for saying that). It was thick and reasonably opaque and I used three coats. I hate to admit that I'm not a massive Enchanted Polish fan like so many other nail polish addicts. They are beautiful polishes (and adorable bottles) but there are so many fantastic indie brands that I'm not sure why Enchanted Polish gets so much hype!






This was a different color for me but I loved it. Did you purchase Enchanted Polish A Little Fishy Told Me? Do you love Enchanted Polish or are you indifferent like me?
