Hello! This is my first of hopefully many guest posts here on The Obsessed. I’m a relative newbie to the nail polish world, but my recent obsession has become just that, an OBSESSION. I’ve scoured websites and blogs, carefully plotting my next purchase based on many reviews and swatches like this one, and I’m excited to finally be doing my own.
I saw my first Lynnderella swatch on Pinterest, and when I followed the link and did a little further digging I was blown away with what the cult polish genius has created. These weren’t the typical opaque cream polishes I was used to from the drug store, each polish is seemingly more creative and unique than the last. Hooked, I finally (after a bit of website stalking) was able to nab my first Lynnderella through her stockist Llarowe, and I haven’t looked back since.
Final thoughts: I much preferred this polish as a three-coater than layered over a base polish. It felt much lighter on my nails, as I have quite thick fingernails that I like to keep short otherwise they start to feel like dragon claws. The purple shimmer is more noticeable in the bottle or in direct sunlight, and the one large hex glitter that I managed to get out of the bottle was quite curled and required a bit of wrangling. As you can see, the actual glitter-polish ratio isn’t very high but I think this is due to my inexperience with applying polish with any sort of glitter. I’m sure I can remedy this the next time.
I LOVE this polish, and can’t wait for my other Lynn’s to arrive from Llarowe so I can swatch them too.
What do you think? Do you have any of the coveted Lynnderella’s?
