A Sparkly Cosmic Vacuum: Black Sheep Lacquer Into the Void

Hey everybody!  I hope this Monday is going well for you. :)  Today I have a very special polish to show you by a Canadian indie company called Black Sheep Lacquer.  And let me tell you, you will feel like anything BUT a social outcast whilst wearing this baby...presenting Into the Void!  (Not to be confused with the void into which Google Reader vanished today...)

Black Sheep Lacquer Into the Void

Black Sheep Lacquer's creator, Erin, describes Into the Void like this:  "a clear base with iridescent glitter, and tiny brown & turquoise hex glitter.  It's packed with personality and you only need one coat for it to look amazing!"

Erin's not kidding...look at this stuff...look at it!  It's aqua teal and a coppery brown together in one iridescent bottle of awesomeness!  I used 2 coats of Into the Void over black for the photos, and this is honestly one of the most gorgeous glitter creations I've ever seen.  I know you see all the time that popular line "I've never seen anything like it"...so I'll spare you and say "I'll bet you've never seen anything like it." :P

***Blurred bottle shot to emphasize unbelievable sparkle***

Into the Void applies extremely well.  The glitters positively glow.  I used 2 coats of CND Air Dry as my top coat because I wanted a glassy finish...the result looks like diamond dust on my nails.  I was a little frustrated because I couldn't capture the exact colors of the teal and brown, but I took a shot in my office with my iPod, and I think it comes closest.  

Ugh...I don't really have gout in my pointer finger, honest.

I'll gladly be the black sheep of THIS family.  No wait...I want to be TOTALLY INCLUDED in THIS family!!  

Oh, and I just have to show you how the polish comes packaged:


Heh heh heh. :)

Black Sheep Lacquers are 3-free and cruelty-free and are available on Etsy.  Erin even makes custom colors! 

Thanks for stopping by, and have a lovely day! :)

  8. This colour is truly unique - and it covers extremely well! Most glitters take at least 2 or 3 coats to become opaque, so I am impressed - and the packaging is so cute :)

    1. I thought it was unique and needed to come live with me. :) This is layered over black, but the glitter does cover exceptionally well.
