Super Nails Lacquer Swatches & Review

 Press Sample / Purchased By Me / Giveaway Prize 

Hi guys! Today I have some swatches and a review on 3 polishes by Super Nails Lacquer. They are all glitter toppers, 2 are from KC's Halloween collection and 1 from her core line.

When using glitter toppers, I highly recommend you turn them upside down before using to allow the larger glitter to go towards the top. That way it'll be much easier to access the bigger glitters. Just a suggestion. Anyways, let's get to the swatches.


First up we have the core line polish called Poker Face. It's a clear base polish full of heart, diamond, club and spade shaped glitter in a variety of colors and finishes. The glitter was a bit difficult to get out since they're bigger, so as always, I recommend you turn the bottle upside down for a while before using it. You'll also need to apply a generous coat of top coat to smooth out the glitters. I thought it was a fun glitter topper, but I do think it'd be a bit better if the glitters were a smaller size like the diamond glitter in the polish. Instead of applying a coat of the polish, I decided to do a glitter placement over a white and black gradient. You can see all the different colored glitters and finishes, including: matte, metallic and holo glitter. So colorful.

Black Cat Crossing is the first of the Halloween polishes. It's a clear base glitter topper with black and silver holo micro glitter, and black holo cat shaped glitter. The formula was great, and turning the bottle upside down made it so much easier to get out the cat glitter. What you see in the pictures is 1 coat over Wet N Wild (Fergie) Glowstick, a few of the cats were individually placed.

Crushed Leaves has got to be my favorite, it's the perfect glitter topper for Fall time. It's a clear base glitter topper with gold, orange and red-orange metallic shards; orange square micro glitter; orange or copper holo hexes; and gold holo circles. I had no trouble with the formula. The circles were a bit tough to come across, so I turned the bottle upside down. 1 coat over Sinful Colors Calypso is what you see in the pictures. Again, some of the circles were placed individually.

It's such a stunning glitter combination. So much that I had to do an additional swatch. In the following pictures you can see I did a sort of glitter gradient with Crushed Leaves over a black base, Wet N Wild Black Creme. I dabbed it on towards the top near my cuticle, and dragged the polish down little by little. I absolutely love it!

So which of the 3 is your favorite? I'd definitely recommend the Halloween polishes, the glitter pay-off is great with both, and you just need 1 coat or less to give your mani that something extra. All these polishes are now available in KC's store. If you'd like to stay up to date with new polish releases/sales/giveaways, you should give her a follow. I've linked her store and social medias below.
