Lacquer Lab is a brand I must admit I
hadn’t come across before; the shame! Founded by mother-daughter
duo Amanda and Emily earlier this year, they produce toxin free (AKA,
free from the five main nasties: Dibutyl
Phthalate (DBP), Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, Toluene or
Camphor) fashion-focused varnishes that are seriously ticking
my polish boxes. The best bit; they are made in the UK!
Hurrah for British industry!
Creative Director Emily was kind enough
to send me some samples from their AW Novella collection to try. And
oooh they’re a bit gorgeous. The first two I’ve tried out are
Lover At The Ritz; a decadent chocolaty plum and Cigarillo;
a delicious burnt butterscotch with a hit of nicotine.
The coverage is great, two coats and
you’re done, plus they have a really high-gloss finish. For this
look I’ve used Lover at the Ritz as the base colour, with hints of
Cigarillo on two feature nails. Because it seems I am incapable of
having plain-colour nails these days I’ve added some IZ Beauty of
London gold nail decals too. I found it quite hard to capture the
true colours of the polishes in my photos; the plum is much darker
and richer on the nail, as you can see from the pics!
At £9 a pop these polishes are less
than your average OPI or Nails Inc polish and of course you get the
added glow of supporting an awesome mother-daughter business AND a UK
manufacturer…or maybe that’s just me? Anyway, I bloody love
them, and think you might too!
