Press Sample
Hey guys! Today I have a new to me indie brand to share with you. I was sent the "Better Watch Out" collection from Lemming Lacquer. This collection consist of three holographic polishes and a jelly glitter polish. I was also sent a handful of Christmas mani bombs as well.
Lemming Lacquer-Gryla
Gryla is described as a dark blue holo with bright blue metallic flash. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was good and applied really well. Dries to a semi gloss finish.
Gryla is a hangered giantess with hooves for feet and thirteen tails who lives in the mountains of Iceland. She has the ability to detect misbehaving children year-round and during the solstice she searches towns for naughty children to boil alive and make into a stew.

Lemming Lacquer-Perchta
Perchta is described as a muted dark pine green holographic polish. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was a bit on the thicker side then Gryla but still very easy to work with and was pretty opaque with just one coat. Dries to a semi gloss finish.
Perchta is a witch who lives in the forests of Germany. She punishes the slovenly, idle, and greedy by splitting open the stomach, ripping out the internal organs and replacing them with garbage.

Lemming Lacquer-Krampus
Krampus is decribed as a glowy, holiday red holo with warm red metallic flash. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was the same as Perchta, pretty opaque with one coat. Dried to a semi gloss finish. This one did have a more metallic look to it so I had to be more mindful of my brush strokes.
Krampus has long dark hair covering his body, cloven hooves, goat horns and a long-pointed tongue. You can hear him coming from the thrashing of his chains. He comes for misbehaved children to give them coal and whips them with birch branches. For the children who were especially naughty he stuffs them in the sack he carries on his back and takes them to Hell.

Lemming Lacquer-Yule Cate
Yule cat is described as a black holographic base with silver shimmer, small silver holographic glitters and small metallic gunmetal glitters. I applied two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was easy to apply and pretty opaque in the first coat. No fishing was needed for the glitters. It dried to a textured finish so you will need a glossy top coat for a smooth finish.
Also called Jólakötturinn, the Yule Cat hails from Iceland and is said to live with the giantess Gryla. Children are told to work hard and complete chores because the Yule Cat can tell which children were lazy. If a child didn't receive at least one new item of clothing by Christmas Eve the Yule Cat would devour them.
