Cadillacquer Where The Wild Things Are

I have a Cadillacquer to show you tonight that I think was discontinued quite a while back, but this was another polish that was on my thought to be broken hard drive, but I thought it was too pretty not to show.  Again these pictures were taken with my previous camera a good time ago but bear with me.

Where The Wild Things Are is from the second Cadillacquer collection, Such Is Life and has a smoky greeny grey base with yellow shimmer, iridescent glitters and colored flakies.

I love this one and am sad I didn't show it off sooner.  This is 1 coat of the Knight 2 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.




As I said, this polish has been discontinued and is no longer available on the official site but you can pick up some others there - when Madeleine is back on the 15th - or you can also buy Cadillacquers from Llarowe, Harlow & Co and Rainbow Connection

Thanks for looking <3 xx

Cadillacquer Restless

I have for you all today a Cadillacquer that is sadly discontinued and I cannot see it for purchase on any of the retailers I am familiar with, but that being said, I still wanted to show it to you.

Restless has turquoise/aqua base with fine holo glitter, different sized brown and turquoise glitters from what I can see.

This is 1 coat of the Knight, 2 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.  I loved the opaqueness and even coverage of this one, despite the amount of glitter.  Another one I am so happy to have in my collection.




Now as I said, this pretty is no longer available but so many great other polishes can be bought from the official site - including some new collections that I am dying to get my hands on.  You can also purchase them from Llarowe, Harlow & Co and Rainbow Connection

Thanks for looking <3 xx

Cadillacquer Tell It To The Frogs

Today we have another later on post, and another Cadillacquer.

The one I wanted to show you tonight is Tell It To The Frogs which is described on the Cadillacquer site as a cayman green base with strong blue sparkle shimmer and different sized light pastel blue hex glitter which describes it so well that I decided best just to borrow Madeleines words on this one :)

The below pictures show 1 coat of the Knight, 3 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.

Now this pretty is still available in the sale on the Cadillacquer site so don't miss out on the chance to grab this one at a great low price - like I did - and Cadillacquers can also be purchased from Llarowe, Harlow & Co and Rainbow Connection.

Cadillacquer Live Free

So today is the last day of my first week dedicated to the one brand.  I have really enjoying trying all these and showing you them and hope to maybe do the same kind of thing with different brands in the future.  Possibly Cadillacquer again as I still have quite a few to show believe it or not.

Live Free has actually been one of my favourite Cadillacquers to date, and was one I hesitated to buy a little, only due too the fact of the light pink base, which is not normally my cup of tea, but there was something about this one that kept making me look when I was on the Cadillacquer site.  So I gave in and bought it and loved it as soon as I tried it on.

Live Free, as I said, is a light pink base with light blue shimmer and brown and blue glitters.  This is 1 coat of the Knight, 3 of the polish, and 1 of the Shield.

As with most of the others, this one is also discontinued, but still available in the sale on the official site.

Cadillaquers can also be purchased from the Llarowe, Harlow & Co or Rainbow Connection.

Thanks for looking and I hope you have enjoyed this week with me <3 xx

Cadillacquer Once More, With Feeling

Today is almost the end of Cadillacquer week, hope you all have enjoyed it so far.

Today I am showing you Once More, With Feeling which is a blue base with an amazing reddy pink shimmer and then also white and pink glitters.  I was already wearing Morning Comes and decided to try out Once More, With Feeling over the top of it and was so glad I did.  I have still to wear OMWF alone so may show you it that way in the future.

So this is yesterdays mani of Morning Comes with one coat of OMWF on top and 1 coat of the Knight.

So both of these polishes are on the discontinued list and I know I keep saying this but I am so glad I got them before they are gone for good.  Head on down to the Cadillacquer site to see these and more in the sale at the moment, and so many other great polishes that are not discontinued.

Cadillaquers can also be purchased from the Llarowe, Harlow & Co or Rainbow Connection.

Cadillacquer Bring On The Night

Today I have another greenish Cadillacquer polish to show you, I seem to actually went through a green phase when buying these as quite a few of my Cadillaquer fit in the green bracket, but anyway, this one is quite different from the one I showed you yesterday.

Bring On The Night is a black base with flakies and turquoise glitters.  Here is 1 coat of the Knight, 3 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.  Some of these polishes would have probably been okay to stop at 2 coats but I actually really like the depth of the 3 layers so will continue to use these polishes this way I think.

Now this one is not a discontinued polish, and can still be picked up from the official site,  Llarowe, Harlow & Co or Rainbow Connection.

If I remember rightly, I got this one the a Llarowe sale a while back.

Thanks for looking <3 xx

Different Dimension I Only Have Ice For You

I will today show you the last one I have from what seemed to be the Different Dimension Christmas collection, this is what happens when I get polishes in December and wait a little bit to show you them

I Only Have Ice For You is a holo topcoat but also has silver glitters running through.  I figured I would layer it with a Cadillacquer polish, as with the others, and this combo was great but so hard to capture on camera!  Too much going on I think.

So here is yesterdays mani, with 1 coat of I Only Have Ice For You on top and then 1 coat of the Shield.

And Cadillaquers can be purchased from the official site, Llarowe, Harlow & Co or Rainbow Connection.

Thanks for looking <3

Cadillacquer Say The Word

Today we have another gorgeous Cadillacquer polish.

This was actually one of the first Cadillacquers I remember seeing a good while back, and I may have seen others before this but I think this one stuck in my mind as I had not seen many other polishes with such contrasting, but complimentary base and glitter colours.  Upon looking into Cadillacquers further, I see this is something Madeleine is not shy to do, and it always seems to work fabulously.

The base on this one is a pastel yellow base with a silvery shimmer, and has blueberry and silver glitters through the base.

Here is 1 coat of the Knight, 3 of the polish and 1 of the Shield.

Now my theme of the week so far seems to have been polishes that are not available, and sadly this one has also been discontinued, but at the time of writing this there are still some available in the sale on the Cadillacquer site, so don't risk missing this one if you love it like I do.

Cadillaquers can also be purchased from the Llarowe, Harlow & Co or Rainbow Connection.

I was very happy with this one and have a few more Cadillaquers to try out but so far I am glad I finally got some of these polishes.

I picked this one up from Rainbow Connection but you can also get them from Llarowe, Harlow & Co or from the official Big Cartel site.
