BEGL swatch

Hello readers,
I've got the last dozen polishes from my Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer collection to share with you. Let's take a look at swatches.

My Precious

BEGL My PreciousBEGL My Precious

My Precious features a purple crelly base filled with glass fleck shimmer and small orange to green shifting glitters. The formula was fairly easy to work with and took three coats for full coverage. It dries down with some glitter texture so top coat is recommended. Photos show three coats of My Precious with one coat of CND Vinylux Weekly Top Coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Prototype BBuMG1 features a turquoise crelly base filled with pink shimmer and small orange iridescent glitters. The formula felt a bit thick due to all the shimmer and glitters in there. I used two coats here and my nail lines still show through a tiny bit. I might thin it a bit and go for three coats in the future, or layer it over a similar creme shade. Photos show two coats of Prototype BBuMG1 with one coat of CND Vinylux Weekly Top Coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

The Years Have Been Short features a pale grey tinted base filled with silver shimmer, tiny metallic blue flecks, and small glitters in shades of white and blue. The formula was easy to apply. I used three coats for almost full coverage here. It did dry down with a fair bit of microglitter texture so I doubled up on top coat. Photos show three coats of The Years Have Been Short with one coat of Watcha Top Glitter smoothing top coat and one coat of CND Vinylux Weekly Top Coat in daylight spectrum lighting.
