Joy Lacquer - Chrome / Chameleons (swatches and review)

**press sample**
Hi guys! Today I have some fun chrome-like polishes from Joy Lacquer to share with you! Each polish is inspired by an awesome car paint job! I personally think Joy nailed them! Let's take a look!



Destination: Just Drive  is a blue to purple duo chrome polish filled with bits of green metallic shreds! For a duo chrome the formula is pretty great. These can tend to be on the sheer side, but this one was pretty opaque. Here I did two coats plus topcoat!






Highway Heat is a beautiful fuchsia to plum thermal polish with a dash of golden flakies throughout! Another great formula that was opaque in two coats plus topcoat. Depending on your application you may need a third. The thermal action worked instantly and gradually became more apparent as I wore it. My photos show more of the warm state, as my lighting setup is pretty warm.







Road Trip Rendezvous is a gold to fuchsia to purple to teal multi chrome. This one is more sheer and required three coats plus topcoat for opacity.  Here I did three thin coats, but you can also layer this over a dark base to really make the colors pop! Also depending on the curvature of your nails, you may see more or less of the shift.






Sunroof Stargazing is a gorgeous medium purple polish filled with a pinky/purple shimmer and scattered holo! Seriously pretty! Here I did three thin coats, but you could likely get away with just two depending on application! The shimmer in this one really makes it glow!




I think these turned out awesome! I especially love the thermal! The color change and the flakies match the actual car perfectly!

These will be available in Joy's shop on August 26th for $10.50 each.  Along with these polishes they'll be putting their 25 Years of Ten Collection, inspired by Pearl Jam, up for presale 8/26 through 9/1! Be sure to follow them for the exact time!
