Unlike my other indie purchases, I know very little about this particular indie brand! I just saw that the polish was on sale on one of my favorite polish shopping sites and I just had to grab it! I am sure this has happen to you before, right? Well, let me say that I am happy I did because I am really pleased with this pretty polish!
Aries is a glitter-filled red jelly that is part of the Zodiac collection and its formula is 5-free. The glitter comes in black, white, and silver hexagons, shards, and microglitter. The formula applies nicely, self-levels and does not pool in your cuticles. Also, the glitter is beautifully resuspended throughout and you get great glitter payoff with minimal effort.
The formula builds up nicely. I first applied a light coat followed by a heavier second coat. Shown below are 2 coats plus top coat.
Overall, this polish left a great first impression and it will make me pay a closer look at this indie polish maker. Do you own any Black Cat Lacquer polishes?
As always, thank you for reading and please feel free to leave your comments. I would love to read from you!
Lovely shades
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! I only have a few Black Cat Lacquer's, but I love the ones I have. I have Leo, from this same collection, and I absolutely love it!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I loved several when I checked Black Cat Lacquer's and I'll probably give Leo a try!
DeleteSoo pretty. I found out about this brand recently while doing a gift exchange and this was on their list.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've only own this one polish from Black Cat Lacquer's thus far, but I would go back for more!
DeleteI own one black laquer that is .... black. I loved the way it looks ! This one is also pretty. Beautiful swatches
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've read nothing but nice things about this brand thus far!
DeleteI haven't tried this brand but I like red glitters.
ReplyDeleteThis one polish is very nice. It reminds me of another red jelly I own from KBShimmers in terms of quality.
DeleteSuch a lovely polish! I've got a few from Black Cat and her stuff is great. However, I'm kind of craving a macro of this beauty! ;) It's the only think missing from this.
ReplyDeleteHahaha!!!!!! Thanks you. And I am working on the macros shot!!!!
DeleteVery pretty. It looks like a watermelon with seeds.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Thank you! And yes, it sort of does!

ReplyDeleteI don't have any Black Cat Lacquer. This is a really pretty polish!
ReplyDeleteIt is very pretty and I love the formula as well!
DeleteBeautiful swatches!! I just got my first Black Cat Lacquer from our swap and I can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteOh, exciting! Which one did you get? I'd love to know what you think of it!
DeleteI've seen a number of Black Cat Lacquers that I thought were stunning. I really like this one! Jelly's are always a fave, but I particularly like this glitter combination paired with red!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I bought this polish! KBShimmer got me hooked on jellies (among other things!!!) and this one is right up there with my KBShimmers.
DeleteI adore Black Cat Lacquer's holos and have a number of them.
ReplyDeleteReally?!!!! I love holos and can't get enough of them! Must go check Black Cat Lacquer's now!
DeleteSuch a pretty jelly! I have a few Black Cats from ABI and have loved them so far!

ReplyDeleteAhhh...thank you Nadia! That means so much to me!!!!
DeleteI currently don't own any Black Cat Lacquers but this polish definitely makes me want to look into adding some to my growing collection. Such a beautiful color!
ReplyDeleteOh, I think you will really like this one! I'm becoming more selective and I will be checking out this brand again based on this beautiful jelly!
DeleteThank you! I love this color as well!
ReplyDeleteI've seen this brand around but haven't tried it yet. This one is very pretty and looks good on you!
ReplyDeleteI'm an Aries! Such a fun polish. This is a brand I have not tried yet.
ReplyDeleteGreat swatches. And such a throwback for me because Black Cat was one of the first indies I ever tried. Definitely need to revisit their shop sometime.
ReplyDeleteI don't own any from this particular brand but Aries is a stunner!!
