Gracie Jay & Co Bee's Knees Lacquer Overstock Sale Haul Part II


Bees Knees Lacquer Swatch

Hello readers,
Today I have swatches of another six polishes I picked up from the Gracie Jay & Co Bee's Knees Lacquer Overstock sale to share with you. Let's take a look at what I bought. 

Aurelian

Bees Knees Lacquer AurelianBees Knees Lacquer Aurelian review

Aurelian feastures a large particle teal to purple shifting shimmer base filled with fuchsia reflective glitters. The formula was quite nice to work with. I used two coats for full coverage here. The reflective glitters make it dry down to a textured finish so top coat is recommended for a smooth shiny finish. Photos show two coats of Aurelian with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Curses Are Made Of Secrets And Sacrifice

Curses Are Made Of Secrets And Sacrifice features a royal purple base filled with a velvety indigo shimmer. Another nice formula. It was full coverage in two coats but I added a third as I felt I got a more saturated colour that way. Photos show three coats of Curses Are Made Of Secrets And Sacrifice with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

The Lion Cub Of Cintra

The Lion Cub Of Cintra features a clear base packed with teal-blue shifting shimmer, tiny teal flakes, and tiny sapphire blue relective glitters. The formula builds up nicely in three coats, or I suspect this would also make a nice topper. The reflective glitters to dry down with texture so top coat is recommended. Photos show three coats of The Lion Cub Of Cintra with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Wait For Me Where The Land Meets The Sea

Bees Knees Lacquer Wait For Me Where The Land Meets The SeaBees Knees Lacquer Wait For Me Where The Land Meets The Sea review

Wait For Me Where The Land Meets The Sea features a teal jelly base filled with small silver reflective glitters. The formula was easy to apply though a bit sheer. After three coats my nail lines do still show through a little bit. As expected from the reflective glitters this polish dries to a textured finished. Add top coat for shine. Photos show three coats of Wait For Me Where The Land Meets The Sea with one coat of Seche Vite top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.
