Lacquer Chic Powder Perfect Duo

Press Sample

Today I have a cute little duo created by Powder Perfect exclusively for Lacquer Chic.  Powder Perfect is an Australian 5 free nail polish brand.  Lacquer Chic is a U.S. Indie and boutique brand stock list. They opened their shop in April.  They currently only ship with in the United States but I believe International shipping will be available late July.  Tiffany from Lacquer Chic contacted me about swatching this summer duo.  I was really excited!  I have never owned or swatched any non US based polishes and its always fun to try new things!  I forgot to take a picture, of course, but Tiffany had this little duo well protected in bubble wrap and wrapped up cute in tissue paper.  It always feels like opening presents when new nail mail comes in cute packaging, am I right ladies?

First up I have a lovely pink polish with a purple shimmer throughout called Bikini in a Bottle.  How cute is that name!  I am afraid I could not capture the shimmer as it looked on the nails.  You can see it in my macro but its not coming up shiny at all.  This is three coats of Bikini in a Bottle topped with a glossy top coat, Gem Glam from Dream Polish.  The first two coats were a little bit sheer, as with any light pink polish but the third coat made it perfect.  The macro shot is more color accurate than the full shot.  I am not sure if it would considered a neon or not but it is very vibrant.  I love a pink polish and this one has the added purple shimmer.




The second half of this Lacquer Chic exclusive is called Beach to the Bar, another fun name!  This is a purple jelly polish with some blue and purple hex glitters some little white dots I believe and some silver squares to!  It is a bit hard for me to tell what all is in there though the pretty purple squishy jelly.  This is shown in three coats with the same glossy topcoat.  The glitters came out on their own and everything flowed well on the nail. On the middle coat I did do a little dabbing to place a couple where I wanted them but nothing major.  I love the color purple but I am not drawn to it in polish for some reason but I do really enjoy a purple jelly and we all know how I love my glitter!!!



I have never worked with or ordered from a stock list company before so this was a new experience for me and I will have to say it was a good one.  Tiffany was very nice to work with and seems to really take pride in her business.  I really liked this duo and I am interested to see what comes to the Lacquer Chic site next!!  This Duo will be available for purchase on June 30th at 12 pm PST.  My set is a mini but the full size set will be $22 or $11.50 each.  I have a 15% off discount code for you to use if you choose to place an order with Lacquer Chic TPB15.  You can visit Lacquer Chic HERE and she can be found on Instagram HERE.  Thanks for coming by and Happy Polishing!  xoxo Jaime

  1. Oh, that jelly... Love it!
    I only own 1 Powder Perfect polish, but the formula is absolutely perfect!

    I also own a couple of lipsticks and a cuticle balm and if you ever get the chance, try the cuticle balm!
    Not only does it smell divine, but it's maybe the best cuticle balm I've ever tried!
