Today I am sharing a new-to-me indie brand called Firecracker Lacquer. Kendahl, the owner of Firecracker Lacquer, has released 5 collections and sent me 3 polishes to swatch and review from two of the collections. She also carries nail studs in her store, to add a little pizzazz to your mani. Firecracker Lacquer is 5-free so it doesn't contain 5 of the harsh chemicals that can be found in polish.
Now let's get to some swatches!
First up is Your Mom Thought I Was Big Enough, which is part of the Meet Your Maker Collection. This polish is a multi-chrome that shifts from purple-blue to orange-red depending on what is placed under it. It applied easily and looks gorgeous over a dark color and soft and delicate on it's own (see my instagram page for photos with no undie @beginnails). Photos show 2 coats over Drip Drop Nail Paint's Yoga Pants (black) topped with shiny top coat.
Next is Flamingo Fanfare, part of the Captivating Creatures Collection. Flamingo Fanfare is a bright pink almost neon holographic polish. Formula was smooth and applied perfectly. This polish is perfect for spring. Photos show 2 coats with shiny top coat.
The last polish I have to share today is a glitter jelly called Punked, which is also part of the Meet Your Maker Collection. Punked is a black jelly that contains magenta, purple, teal and silver holographic hexes in 2 sizes. Photos show 2 coats with shiny top coat (1st and 2nd photos) and O.P.I. Matte Top Coat (3rd and 4th photos).

Loves: I love the formulas on all the different finishes that Firecracker Lacquer sent me. They are creamy and apply like a dream. I also love the versatility of the multi-chrome since it can be used on it's own with 3 coats or over a dark color. If I had to pick a favorite of the 3, I would go with Flamingo Fanfare. It's perfect for spring, with it's bright uplifting pink sparkle! And the added plus of Firecracker Lacquer's is that their products are 5-free so they don't contain 5 of the harsh chemicals that can be found in polish.
Wishes: These 3 that I tried were amazing. I wouldn't change anything about them. Now I want some more of the Captivating Creatures collection! There are some really fun bright colors that make me ready for spring!
