Bee's Knees Lacquer - From Blood and Ash Pt 2

 Bee's Knees Lacquer - From Blood and Ash Pt 2

Bee's Knees Lacquer - From Blood and Ash
Welcome! Hope you're excited to see the latest release from Bee's Knees Lacquer because I've got swatches to share! It's another "From Blood and Ash" inspired collection!

*Polish provided as press sample for review*
Launch details - preorder opens on 8/27 noon EDT, and ends 9/3 at midnight PDT. Preorders are awesome because you don't have to rush and worry about bottles selling out (it's a different story on respawns!) annnnnd some of you may already know, but Sarah's a guest maker in FOUR groups for September and those polishes will go up for sale on 9/1 (through 9/30) so there's a nice overlap there to buy everything you may want ;)
***CORRECTION to the group customs - they'll be available 9/15 to 9/30 (so overlapping with the anniversary collection); leaving the original dates here for accountability, if you start looking for them on 9/1 and can't find it, it's because I told you incorrectly 🤦🏻‍♀️ sorry!!


Lamaea - a rich violet base with a jewel-toned shimmer that shifts from green to blue to purple. May stain because of the violet base so base coat is recommended! $12
Bee's Knees Lacquer - Lamaea
For swatches I did use 2 coats + top coat but this one is so pigmented that it's opaque enough in 1 coat! 2 just deepens the color

Elementals - a dark honey colored linear holo. $13

Swatches show 3 coats + top coat - it's such a pretty color and a little promise of fall coming!

The next 6 are all of a similar type of finish and vary in how sheer they are. For the sake of being consistent, I only have pictures of the polishes on their own here - I'm working on another set of swatches where undies are used. I often feel like I need a shirt that says " the VNL is strong with this one" but I hope the swatches help you form an idea of which ones would benefit from undies more than others. 

Bad Influence - a baby pink pastel multichrome that shifts from deep raspberry to orange to green. Can be worn on its own or over your favorite blurring base coat. $13
Bee's Knees Lacquer - Bad Influence
Swatches show 3 coats + top coat; I was expecting this one to be the sheerest one of the bunch but it surprised me with how much chrome and color shift it packs

Soul Eater - a sky blue pastel multichrome that shifts from cobalt to purple to pink. Can be worn on its own or over your favorite blurring base coat. $13
Bee's Knees Lacquer - Soul Eater
Swatches show 3 coats + top coat; I felt that this one looked the sheerest on me, but you can still see a really vivid blue flash of color on it, it's very ghostly and ethereal looking, but you just know this one will pop over black!
