Hey guys! Hope all is well! Today I have some swatches and reviews on a beautiful collection. Meet The Full As Much Heart collection made by Lollipop Posse Lacquer. This collection is a group of six lacquers in various jewel-toned shades that take inspiration from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre.
Lollipop Posse Lacquer-Small, Obscure, Plain, and Little
Small, Obscure, Plain, and Little is described as a grey, scattered holographic shade with shimmer that shifts between violet and blue depending on the lighting and angle. I applied three thin coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied very well. Dries to a glossy finish.
"Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you."
-Jane to Rochester, from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre

Lollipop Posse Lacquer-A String Somewhere
A String Somewhere is described as a pink/magenta crelly-based polish with a mix of gold, blue, red, and purple shifting pigments. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula and application were great. Dries to a slightly glossy finish.
"Because, he said, "I sometimes have a queer feeling with regard to you - especially when you are near me, as now: it is as if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly and inextricably knotted to a similar string situated in the corresponding quarter of your little frame. And if that boisterous channel, and two hundred miles or so of land some broad between us, I am afraid that cord of communion will be snapt; and then I've a nervous notion I should take to bleeding inwardly. As for you, - you'd forget me.”
-Rochester to Jane, from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre

Lollipop Posse Lacquer-You Almost Unearthly Thing
You Almost Unearthly Thing is described as a micro-flakie filled polish that shifts between magenta, red, yellow, and orange shades, with red shimmer and charcoal-colored flakies scattered throughout. I applied three thin coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Applied well. Dried to a slightly glossy finish.
"You — you strange — you almost unearthly thing! — I love as my own flesh. You — poor and obscure, and small and plain as you are — I entreat to accept me as a husband."
-Rochester to Jane, from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre

Lollipop Posse Lacquer-Where There Is No Extrication
Where There Is No Extrication is described as an amethyst-toned holographic with large-particle blue shimmer mixed throughout. The holographic flame is a medium to strong density and linear. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied evenly. Dries to a glossy finish.
"...and it is madness in all women to let a secret love kindle within them, which, if unreturned and unknown, must devour the life that feeds it; and, if discovered and responded to, must lead, ignis-fatuus-like, into miry wilds whence there is no extrication."

Lollipop Posse Lacquer-My Drop of Living Water
My Drop of Living Water described as a murky blue-toned green with purple flecks floating throughout. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied well. Dries to a glossy finish. According to the maker this one can be a stainer if not used with a base coat. I didn't experience any staining with my 2 coats of base coat on my nails or cuticles when removing but I also only keep a swatch on for no more then 30min.
“Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup?"
-Jane to Rochester, from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre

Lollipop Posse Lacquer-I Am No Bird
I Am No Bird is described as a sapphire blue-toned jelly with various sizes of royal blue holographic hex glitters and a generous amount of purple to blue shifting shimmer. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was a bit thicker then the rest because it had a jelly like formula but applied well. Dries to a slightly textured finish.
“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”
-Jane, from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre
