*Press Samples*

Today I've got two new polishes from Literary Lacquers to share with you. Literary Lacquers recently changed their shop model to be a pop up open one weekend a month and she will be releasing a new polish (this month it's two) along with rereleasing some old polishes as well.

This month there are two stunning new holos to share, plus a collection of cremes which are spectacular as well.

They are available through tomorrow Sunday February 5 at midnight MST on the Literary Lacquers Etsy site. Let's get started with the gorgeous polishes shall we?!?!

First up we have Literary Lacquers "Hope" Is the Thing with Feathers. This is a gorgeous pink amethyst linear holo with gorgeous blue shimmer. Literary Lacquers always creates her polishes with some piece of literature in mind and this particular polish was inspired by "Hope" is the thing with feathers by Emily Dickinson.

This polish is quintessential Literary Lacquers, Amy creates the most gorgeous holos with shimmers and I just love this combo, it's feminine, but not too pinky pinky. Also had a great formula that was opaque in two easy coats. And that shimmer, it's everything and it's not sneaky or hidden like some shimmers can be.

The second of the new polishes is Literary Lacquers The Happy Prince. This polish was designed with Jenn Sky Walker of The Jedi Wife celebrating her 5th blogiversary. The polish was inspired by The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde.

This is a complex polish, but packed with so much character. It is a sapphire blue crelly packed with subtle pink shimmer and microglitters. Since this polish is packed with so much, it does dry on the more textured side, so I would recommend and application with thin coats (this is two coats) and two coats of top coat for a smooth and shiny finish.

Next up are the cremes, I've reviewed them all previously, so I'll give a quick description. Each creme is a two coater, and some of them work pretty well to stamp!
