Review & Swatches: Nostalgic Nail Lacquer Pt. 1


I have a HUGE haul from Nostalgic Nail Lacquer I've collected over period of 3 months. They had a Christmas sale last year and I took advantage of it. Recently, however, they also had release their Spring line alongside with their new site so I made another order and I can't say how much I adore their nail polish formula & color selections.
 Top: Bitchcraft, Possibly Maybe, Duckie, The Brain
Bottom: The Criminal, Rock Me Amadeus, Date at Midnight with Nosferatu, The Basketcase, Personal Jesus

Prepare for teh osm!!!

I've only gotten to swatch 3 of the polishes. First up would be Bitchcraft from Black No. One collection.
"Bitchcraft is a creepy pea-soupy green jelly with various shapes and sizes of glitters in purple, magenta, blue and black."
Worn 2 coats over OPI Did It On Em (from Nicki Minaj collection) & mattified with Essie Matte About You. 
Isn't this what it'd look like if Frankenstein threw up all his Thanksgiving dinner on you? lol It's so quirky and odd and I LOVE IT A LOT!


Next would be The Brain from Saturday Detention collection.  
"The Brain is a mixture of blue glitters in various shapes in sizes floating in a soft yellow base."
Worn 2 coats over Sinful Colors Unicorn, Out The Door TC.
Just look at those perfection. My brother is in medical school and I'm sure he will side-eyed me if he hears this, but to me this color combo resembles an actual brain. All yellow-y and squishy...with blue veins running through. 

Yes. I am creepy and I am aware of it.

 
Last one it would be from their latest collection, Ladies in Love, Possibly Maybe. 
"If you are a fan of slightly odd and definitely quirky (like say, Bjork?) lacquers, then you possibly, maybe, probably will love this shade. It's a semi-sheer pale yellow crelly with lavender  mint green, silver and gun metal glitters."
Worn 3 coats on its own, with Out The Door TC.

This is like, Easter in a bottle. I am digging the green & lavender colors together against pale yellow. Someone asked me if this polish was glow in the dark and I could see why people would think that way. Wouldn't it be awesome if it was tho?

(The answer is yes, btw, so if you said "no" then something is wrong wit chu.)

Btw I also noticed a funny shaped glitter that looks like Kobayashi Maru idk

Yeah this post is picture-heavy and if I could find a sincere way to say I am sorry to break your internet, I would :P I will post more as soon as I try the rest.

Thank you again for checking it out! Hope you all have a great weekend :)
