Right on the Nail ~ Laquered Up Chills and Thrills Collaboration Box Review and Swatches: Diamond in the Ruff



Laquered Up Diamond in the Ruff (3 coats)

I've been a bad blogger lately, sorry. The whole holiday thing last week really through everything off. Not to worry, I'm back and better than ever. Well, I'm as good as I was before at least. I broke a nail this morning so maybe I'm not even as good...who knows. Either way, I'M BACK! Let's just leave it at that.

Last month I bought a collaboration box called Chills and Thrills from Michelle at Polish 'M where proceeds went to the Fresno Pit Bull Rescue. If it's polish for a good cause, I'm all for it. The box contained several items that were donated by companies to be put in the Chills and Thrills box. Yes, Laquered Up donated the polish I'm showing today called Diamond in the Ruff (cute name!) and I think that that is such a great gesture. It's a beautiful bronze color with a sprinkling of multichrome flakes. Laquered Up offer both mini and full-sized bottles in their shop and I am showing the mini bottle (7 mL). I am actually really impressed with the bottle and the brush; most of the time the brushes are really small and I have to dip into the bottle several times per nail which is annoying. I found that this one was a nice size overall. The application and consistency were perfect on both accounts. I used 3 coats for the swatches above, but I didn't find the polish to be overly sheer or anything.

You can find out more about Laquered Up on their website or on their Instagram pages.
