Hey loves! Today I have the April Fandom Flakies Box to share with you. This box used to consist of three polishes with the 2 main makers, Bee's Knees Lacquer and Night Owl Lacquer plus a guest maker each month however the Fandom Flakies box will only be containing the 2 main polishes from BKL & NOL plus extra goodies by Rabbits Stickits from now on.
This months theme is by far my favorite to Fandom box to have been able to swatch and review because it's inspired by Doctor Who! Now if you don't know I am legit fangirl obsessed with all things Doctor Who. As in, have seen every episode(on repeat basically), listen to the audio books, my entire bedroom is Doctor Who and galaxy themed, collect all things DW and spent 3 years going to numerous conventions to meet as many as the actors and actresses who play my beloved characters(photos at the end of the blog if interested haha) so saying I was excited isn't strong enough haha and I wasn't disappointed!
Read on for live swatches, photos, reviews and purchase info!

Bee's Knees Lacquer | Don't Blink 2.0
Described as a black tinted base filled with a rainbow of vibrant multichrome color shifting flakes, black metallic flakes and holographic micro flakies. Shown here in 3 coats, plus top coat. This one is share enough to also be worn as a topper. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with some texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.
Night Owl Lacquer | Brilliant!
Described as a black tinted base filled with a rainbow of vibrant multichrome color shifting flakes, black metallic flakes and holographic micro flakies. Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with some texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.
Ribbits Stickits | Waterslide Decals
$7.00 Per Sheet
Instructions:
1. Paint nails, let dry completely.
2. Cut out the desired image.(Try cutting as close as possible to the image)
3. Place in warm water for 5-10 seconds.
4. Using your thumb & index finger slide the paper backing from the image.
5. Lightly dampen the back of the decal.
6. Place image on your nail, pressing down to remove any air bubbles.
7. Seal it with a top coat.
Tip:
If you prefer to use the decal over a colored/darker polish it's best to paint the back of the image with white polish/acrylic paint letting it dry before applying it to the nail.(which is what I did for these manis)
