Mod Lacquer - Paranormal Paradise

Shade

Last month the Indie Brand Mod Lacquer posted on their Instagram page that they were looking for swatchers, and of course I was interested. Jennifer, the creator of Mod Lacquer, makes the most amazing holographic nail polishes I've ever seen, but she also makes a ton of unique super sparkly glitter combinations. It's a 3 free hand blended nail polish brand.

I received three nail polishes to try out: High Strangeness, Aerial Phenomenon and Paranormal Paradise.

I decided to dedicate a different blog post to each nail polish, since I took about 100 photos of each of them.....

The third polish is this glitter bomb called Paranormal Paradise. This is a multi-size, multicolour holographic glitter polish in a clear base with large holographic circles in various colours.... I took that directly off of Mod Lacquers Etsy description... there is so much in this polish!!

The base keeps the glitter suspended so little to no settling occurs.

Here is my description of what I can see: it has teeeeeeny tiny little silver holographic dust glitter, some slightly larger micro glitters in pink and blue. Some slightly larger green holographic hex glitter, and even larger pink holographic hex glitter, and then some super large circle holographic glitter in various different colours.

The photo to the right shows the same large holographic circular glitter in different angles.

I used one coat of Paranormal Paradise for all the photos. All the glitters were easy to get out, apart from the large holographic circles, I kind of had to fish them out and place them on my nail.

I love how the glitters look over different bases. I think the dark blue and the pink look the best!

The mini's retail for only $4 (US) and the full size polishes cost $11(US). Luckily for us UK girls, Mod Lacquer ships internationally! 

Mod Lacquers new Fall/Autumn collection The World's Fair will be released on Friday September 19th at 9 PM EST!

Mod Lacquer - Aerial Phenomenon

The second polish is Aerial Phenomenon, a bright pink linear holographic polish. This is so insanely holographic it's unbelievable! 

The formula on this is very similar to High Strangeness, it's applies smoothly without any streaks or unevenness. The polish also dries incredibly quick, so you don't have to worry about dragging the polish on the second coat, or having to wait 15 minutes before going to the toilet! 

I used 2 coats for the swatch and no top coat. The first coat is much more opaque than High Strangeness, but not quite opaque enough for it to be a 1 coater. The second coat completely covers up any nail line. 

I am so impressed with the holographic polishes from Mod Lacquer! I think my bank will be a little less impressed with I place an order!

Mod Lacquer - High Strangeness

First up is High Strangeness, a very light violet linear holographic nail polish. It's even more holographic in real life than in these photos!

All photos are taken outside in direct sunlight. The holo is most obvious and beautiful in the sun, although you can still easily see the holographic effect in artificial lighting.

I used 2 coats for the photos and no top coat. I found the first coat was very sheer, and would probably look beautiful layered over another colour. However, the second coat completely covered everything up beautiful! Absolutely no visible nail line.

The formula was very smooth and applied evenly. Even with the sheer first coat, there were no streaks.

The polish dried quickly and applying a second coat was just as easy. With some holographic nail polishes I found that if you don't wait long enough the second coat will drag the first coat and create bald spots. I had no issues with that whatsoever.

A quick summery:
Easy, quick drying, non streaky formula
2 coats for full opacity
Insanely holographic, even indoors
Beautiful light violet shade
Hand blended 3 free formula.
