Today I have 3 of the 6 polishes from the Smokey Mountain Lacquers Summer Collection. I was really excited about this collection because Kim (owner of SML) mentioned they can be used for nail art! I'll be sharing the swatches and art I created with the polishes.
Now let's get to some swatches!
First up is Lemon Tart, a shimmery yellow creme. Lemon Tart is a crisp, fresh yellow which is perfect as a base for nail art, like stamping. Formula was nice and easy to apply. Photos show 2 coats for total opacity with shiny top coat and stamping with Winstonia and Mash Plates.
Next is Marshmallow Cream, a perfect white crelly. This would work perfect for a jelly sandwich (layer of Marshmallow Cream followed by a layer of glitter and then another layer of Marshmallow Cream). Added stamping with a Born Pretty Plate and Sheer Perfection Tints from Polish Pusher to add a pop of color. Photos show 2 coats with a shiny top coat.
The last polish I have to share is called Refreshmint. Refreshmint is a mint green holographic polish. Mint + holo = HAPPY FACE! Easy to work with because the formulas of Smokey Mountain Lacquer polishes are amazing. Photos show 2 coats with shiny top coat. I decided to water marble over the over Refreshmint using Lemon Tart, Marshmallow Cream and the shiny top coat. Loved how it turned out.
Loves: I love polishes that are easy to use for nail art! All are water marble friendly and work perfect as bases for art. I love the shimmer in Lemon Tart, I love the diversity that Marshmallow Cream can be used for and who doesn't love a holo? Formula for all 3 were great and of course Smokey Mountain Lacquers are 5-free so they don't contain 5 of the nasty chemicals that an be in polish.
Wishes: I wouldn't change anything - this collection is full of fun colors!
Additional colors of the collection include Plumtastic - deep purple holo, Berry Smoothie - hot pink holo and Creme de Menthe - teal green crelly.
Shiny Top Coat: Gem Glam Top Coat from www.dreampolish.com
