Hey, Swatch It! Liquid Sky Lacquer Howling At The Moon

Hey y'all!

Happy Saturday!  With October just around the corner, a girl's heart may turn towards Halloween and all the kooky pleasures it brings - okay, *my* heart definitely does.  Last week I was cruising through some clearance polishes on Rainbow Connection UK, a stockist who carries lots of foreign indies, when this gorgeous polish jumped into my cart.

Hey, Swatch It!  Swatches and review of Liquid Sky Lacquer's Howling at the Moon, both glossy and matte.

This is my first-ever Liquid Sky Lacquer, and I just immediately fell in love!  It consists of a thin black jelly, with loads of multi-shaped silver and yellow glitters, and a dusting of holo microglitters.  These pics show two coats over a black creme base, topped with SV.

Admittedly I think I bought it as much for the name as for the polish itself, but it definitely FEELS wolfy to me, so she really did name it appropriately.  Also, it makes me think of Oz, and then I get the sadz for a minute.  Awww.

I love how much depth all the different sized glitters gives it, and of course once topcoated, we're on our way to Squish City!

I couldn't help but wonder what it would look like matted, so of course I had to throw on a coat of Sally Hansen big matte.

Honestly... I mean, I like it matted, but I think I liked it squishy better.  Am I crazy?  Am I a LUNAtic?  Har har.

Either way, I am so happy to have this pretty in my stash now.  I can definitely see it making an appearance near Halloween.  What do you think?  Do you love it as much as I do?  Do you have any Liquid Sky Lacquers that I should know about?  Let me know down in the comments!

Hope you're all having a fantastic weekend, and I'll see ya soon!

That's pretty much the reaction that made me buy it lol!
This has to be my favourite glitter nail polish ever. I usually don't like them much because of the pain they are to remove, but that really does look like moon craters!

I have come to live with the pain to remove aspect, and really, I almost always use a peel-off glue base any time I'm wearing full glitter anymore for precisely that reason. But yeah, I totally hear you!
Love! Definitely like better without the matte coat.

Yay, another one for squishy! :)
Don't hate me, but I totally prefer it with the matte top coat!

I really adore this matted! What a fun polish for Halloween!

Totes agree! Thank you!
This is seriously gorgeous and almost looks like it's not real... I LOVE that effect. I need this polish

It's odd, isn't it? But I promise, it's totally real! LOL
I prefer it with glossy top coat, but in general this is a great polish! I love the different types/sizes of glitter!

She really did a great job with it, I agree. Thanks!
I have to say, this isnt one of my favourites, but thats cause its glitter!

That's okay - I know how you are. When we first met, I was the one who hated all the glitter... now we're flipped. :)
