SMOKEY MOUNTAIN LACQUERS Spring 2015 collection : Swatches and Review



Hi there, my darlings! This afternoon showcases a new indie on the blog! Yay! I've always been a huge supporter of indie brands from the very conception of ColorSutraa and I'm always thrilled to discover and work with new indie brands. Today, I'd like to share with you all my first experience and swatches of Smokey Mountain Lacquers, whose maker Kim is already making a place in my heart! She's amazingly supportive and her brand, from what I can tell so far, is of pretty darn good quality polishes!


Before we get started, let's talk quickly about the formula and application of these polishes! Across the board, whether creme or metallic holo, each was easily opaque in 2 thin coats and I was quite impressed with how smoothly each applied! The swatches below show 2 thin coats by itself for the holos and 2 thin coats topped with 1 thin coat of G&G's HK Girl for the cremes. With that out of the way, let's get to our favorite part--swatches!


Heart of Steel is a gunmetal metallic with added gunmetal flakies and a holographic finish. The addition of the flakies just takes this gray to a whole new level!






With flash!





Life’s A Peach is a medium peachy-orange creme with a hint of holo sparkle and gold shimmer. So perfect for Spring!

Pink About It is a creamy pastel pink with a hint of holo shimmer. So feminine!

Hello Sunshine is a peachy gold metallic with gold shimmer and a touch of glitter that shifts from gold to green to blue. I'm not usually a huge fan of yellow tones but this is quite pretty!

You Gotta Lilac This is a silvered lilac metallic holo with a touch of glitter that shifts from red to orange to yellow. Such a pretty shade!

Time Willows Tell is a minty blue-green linear holo with a metallic finish. One of my favorites of this collection!

Wild Blue Yonder is a bright blue linear holo with a metallic finish. Another instant favorite! I can't resist the blues!

Poppy Fields is a coral pink linear holo. The third personal favorite of this collection, I love how this shade looks on my complexion!
