Hello lovely readers! I have a gorgeous collection to show you over the next 4 posts from an indie brand called Lilacquer. It’s called the Fifth Element Collection and is 8 polishes, most of which are duochrome! Sadly, I’ve never seen the movie that these are inspired by.
I’m splitting them up into 4 separate posts for you so I will be showcasing the 2 blues today!
Here is a group shot of all 8 bottles for you!
As I said before, today’s post is of the two “bluer” polishes. They happen to be my favorites from the collection as well! (No surprise there, I love blues!).
The Diva Plavalaguna and Supreme Being
First, we have The Diva Plavalaguna! As stated from Lilacquer’s Etsy listing it is a “deep blackened blue shimmer that morphs to an aqua green.” I really like this one a lot! Very gorgeous and covered well on it’s own if you didn’t want to wear it over a base color. I’m showing over black, white, and by itself so you can get a good feel for the polish. No topcoat.

Middle: 2 coats over white

Ring and Pinky: 2 coats by itself

Check out that duochrome! This is one coat over black! So gorgeous!
Next we have Supreme Being. I think this is my favorite of the collection. The duochrome is so strong, it’s even seen while worn on it’s own. From Lilacquer’s Etsy listing, it’s a “cornflower blue shimmer with pops of soft pink duochrome.” Also being show over black, white, and by itself. It’s a little more sheer needing 3 coats if worn on it’s own for full coverage. No topcoat.

1 coat over black. That is a strong duochrome!
What do you think of these 2 polishes? Which is your favorite? They both had great formulas and applied easily. I am definitely a fan.
