Takko Lacquer Kiss The Sky Over Sinful Colors Enchanted Swatch And Review

One more day until TGIF!  I feel like I've been spending so much time at work these days and missing important milestones in LO's growth.  It's so hard being a full time mom.  I wish I had the luxury of being a SAHM, but as my BFF says, we were too stupid and decided to become independent and successful career women instead.  Doh.

I have a new Sinful Color core color for you, it's called Enchanted and it's a decadent purple cream with violet undertones.  I used super easy coats and the formula was a tiny bit thick but it did not impede with application in any way.  This is with no topcoat so you can see its natural shine.

I thought this would be the perfect base color for a amazing color shifting shimmering polish by Takko Lacquer called Kiss The Sky.  This polish is a glossy blue based purple jelly saturated with crazy beautiful shimmer that shifts from red to gold to blue depending on the light.  It's color shifting shimmer is akin to Unicorn Pee aka Clarins 230.  I used two coats to maximize depth of the jelly base and load up on the shimmer.  This is finished with a layer of Poshe to add shine because it dries to a satin finish on its own.

Oh mah gawd, lookit how purty that is.  I caught myself staring at the shimmer at the most inopportune times throughout the day, such as in the middle of a business meeting with my boss.  Gulp.  Note to self, don't wear this during work!  You can see the gold to red shimmer in the above pics, but I had the darndest time capturing the blue shift.  Somehow it only comes out in certain lighting, like while in the car or sitting in a dimly lit room.  Strange.  Takko Lacquer sells out lightning fast, so you've got to jump on it during the weekly restock.  I heard she recently released a spotted holographic polish.  Swoon.... Must. See. This!  If anyone nabbed one yesterday, I would love to see your swatches!  Have you tried any of these elusive polishes yet?
