Cadillacquer Pink Teddy Bear

Today I have such a gorgeous polish to show you, I just can't get enough of it. This has been on my nails for 4 days already and I really just don't want to take it off. Luckily, I really don't have to, as I only have the slightest bit of tipwear on 2 of my nails. The rest of my mani looks absolutely flawless!

Cadillacquer Pink Teddy Bear is a black base with a pink, slightly color shifting shimmer and a scattered holo dusting. This is part of the Breaking Bad collection and was first released in 2013.

The formula is bang on. It's easy to paint, dries really fast and shiny and it's opaque in 2 thin coats. It's so opaque, that if you do a slightly thicker coat, you might be able to get away with just 1 coat if you're in a hurry.

My pictures don't do this polish justice at all, the shimmer is much more noticeable in real life and absolutely gorgeous! The holo is so finely milled, that you don't really get the rainbow effect, it just adds depth to the base.

I absolutely love this polish! When I first got it, I thought it was pretty, but I didn't expect it to have the can't stop staring at my nails effect. Let me tell you, I was wrong! It's simple, but stunning and it looks different in every light. If you love darker polish, this is the one to get!

Cadillacquer is available at Llarowe, Harlow&Co and I got mine at Hypnotic Polish. Every single polish I tried from this brand has a perfect formula, so I highly recommend checking it out!

Cadillacquer Have a killer day

I've been in the mood for simple, clean colors lately, so I've been wearing a lot of nudes, grey and taupes. Yes, me, wearing taupe, can you believe it? Must be my age catching up with me, lol. But I'm still me, so I always paired it with a little bit of color, glitter or nail art. This polish has that pop of neon already build in!

Cadillacquer Have a killer day is a gorgeous grey base with blue micro flakies, large neon pink squares, small matte purple glitter and small matt pink glitter. This is part of the Dexter collection and even though I'm one of the few people who really didn't like that show, I do really like this polish!

The formula is really nice, it's easy to paint and no fishing is necessary to get the larger glitter out, but I did do the smallest bit of placing the large neon glitter, to make sure those were evenly spread out on my nails. It dried really fast and reasonably shiny, but I did add a good coat of top coat to smooth everything out.

It's such a pretty polish on the nail. It looks like a really subtle polish and I think it's totally work appropriate because of that grey base. You only get the full effect of the neon glitter when you look at it up close and personal, just the way I like it!

Cadillacquer is available at her site, click here and you can also pick it up at Llarowe, Hypnotic Polish and Harlow&Co.

What's your favorite nude with a pop of color combination?

Cadillacquer Have a little faith

Lately, I've been loving the more neutral shades, especially paired with a neon or glitter polish. So when my eye caught this neutral base packed with glitter, I had to have it!

Cadillacquer Have a little faith is a grey/taupe/purple base packed with darker grey/taupe/purple and silver glitter. I know... great color description, but it really looks different in every light and I'm sticking with grey/taupe/purple!

The formula was really nice, easy to paint, with a good glitter payoff and it dried fast and glossy. It's opaque in 2 - 3 coats, depending on how thick you do your coats, I only needed 2. Because this is a glitter polish, I would recommend using a top coat to smooth it out.

I absolutely love it! It's such a sophisticated polish, it's totally work appropriate, but still packs a glitter punch! When the sunlight hits the nail, the silver glitters come out to play and make this polish sparkle.

This is my one and only Cadillacquer, but I already know I want more! I have my eye on Seek the fire, State of Emergency and Have a killer day. Cadillacquer is a Swiss indie brand owned and made by Madeline. All polishes are inspired by her favourite songs, movies, games and tv-series and are 3-free.

Do you enjoy a nice neutral polish or are you more of a bright kind of girl?
