Takko Lacquer swatches and review!

 
Hi girls!
I'm really sorry about the sporadic posts lately but I have a big work deadline this Friday and I've had to take extra work with me home for way longer than I would have wanted. I'm really trying my best so please bear with me for a couple more days...
 
 
Anyway, today I have a few Takko Lacquers beauties to share with you and ket me start by saying I was seriously impressed by not only their beauty and originality but also their fantastic formula!
 
 
 
 
 
Lemon Macaroon is a beautiful yellow shimmer with a slight green hue. I'm not such a big fan of yellows because they usually have crappy formulas but this one applied like a dream and was particularly opaque. I used 2 coats plus topcoat in these swatches.
 

 
 
 
 
Kaleidoscope Eyes is a true chameleon! Blue, green and even purple at some angles, it's just an amazing metallic shimmer with sparse holographic particles. I don't have anything else like it in my collection and it's just incredible in real life. Again, formula was perfect, requiring 2 coats for full opacity.
 

 
 
 
 
We’re All Mad Here is just plain FANTASTIC!!! Gorgeous and deep sapphire blue with a bright red shimmer (more visible in person) and a ton of green flakies... What's not to love? It's just incredible in real life, be prepared to look at your nails all day long... I used 3 very thin coats here as it was a bit less opaque than the previous ones but they dried super fast so it was no trouble at all.
 

 
 
 
 
Jimi’s Jacket is yet another stunner. You're going to hear this a lot today! Also bright sapphire blue but packed with bold gold glass flecked shimmer this time. Your nails won't go unnoticed. Formula was a bith thicker but very manageable and I applied 3 coats plus topcoats here.
 

 
 
 
 
Va Va Voom is once more just drop dead gorgeous! Shinny and eye-catching deep metallic red shimmer with a good amount of holo particles, just enough to set it apart from anything else in my collection. I used 2 coats here and both application and drying time were dreamy.
 

 
 
 
 
And last but not least, we have Wanderlust... *le sigh* Honestly it's just incredible... Warm and dusty purple base with a bright and very visible green shimmer running through, I couldn't love it more! Application was, once again, easy as a breeze and you're looking at 2 coats plus topcoat.
 

 
 
 
 
Overall :
For a first experience with Takko Lacquer, I couldn't recommend them more. High quality formula combined with stunning and original colors, that would be a HIT in my book!
 
 
I also have another Takko product to show you girls, hopefuly very soon but I'm saving it for a special occasion LOL. It's the Takko mani-bomb!
