Hey guys! It's Friday! Yay! Well, it's actually kind of bittersweet for me though because my parents are leaving today to Mexico for two months so I won't see them until August! But I'm happy for them too because they'll finally see all of our family over there after some time now. Anyways, today I have an amazing collection by none other than Alchemy Lacquers. I gotta tell you, Rebecca is a genius! How she comes up with these beautiful creations is beyond me, I just wanna wear them LOL. The Moon Shards collection is being released today so make sure to get all the info below!
The Moon Shards collection consists of 9 new polishes, two of which you can purchase now, just click here. The theme for this collection: multichrome FLAKIES! I know, I know...more flakies? Yeah, but these are awesome, and actually really unique. I can assure you that you don't have any like these in your collection! I'm so excited to show you, so onto the swatches!
Ganymede is a glitter topper with multichrome flakies that transition from yellow to orange to fuchsia to green all in a shimmer multichrome shift that transitions the same as the flakies mentioned above.

I have no idea why I initially wore this without an undie, but then decided to rock this over black which totally made all the multichrome shift pop out! Great formula too!

Chiron is a dark purple jelly with multichrome flakies that transition from yellow to orange to fuchsia to green. I wore 3 coats with a top coat.
This was so incredibly hard to capture. First of all, it's a purple and you know how cameras hate purples. It is my favorite out of the collection, for sure and a must have!
Pandora is a glitter topper with multichrome flakies that transition from fuschia to green to yellow, all in a shimmer multichrome shift that transitions from blue to green.
I wore 2 coats over Wet N Wild Black creme and 4 coats with no undies for the macro below. Another great shifter.

Titan is a green shift polish with green shimmer and green to yellow flakies and linear holo. I wore 2 coats over Wet N Wild Black creme
I wish I could have captured the holo better! Great formula and application.

Phobos is a light brown jelly with a fuchsia to yellow shift, as well as flakies with a fuchsia to green to yellow shift. I wore 3 coats with a top coat.
I thought this was a glitter topper at first but it was definitely a nice surprise to see a nude with flakies. Great formula and application.
Oberon is described by Alchemy Lacquers as a 'periwinkle blue jelly polish with teal/blue/green multichrome flakies, a red/orange/green multichrome, and a linear holographic finish." I wore 2 coats with a top coat.
Though it's described as a blue, it's more of a gunmetal grey. I really like it! The formula was flawless.
Io is a dark purple jelly with holo dust and multichrome flakies that transition from fuchsia to purple to teal to blue. I wore 3 coats with a top coat.
Another gorgeous, and hard to capture purple! LOL Great formula and application too! Doesn't it kinda look like a galaxy on my nails?
Calypso is a white creme polish with a blue to purple shift, green to purple chrome flakies with a linear holographic finish. I wore 3 coats with a top coat.
This is actually a remake of an old AL polish called Elixir No.4. Well, it's more of an upgrade, not a remake. I will have a comparison post tomorrow of both. I absolutely love this polish. Everything together is just gorgeous. Great formula too!

Callisto is an very light beige/nude polish with fuchsia shimmer and multichrome flakies that transition from purple to fuchsia to yellow to orange and holo shimmer throughout. I wore 3 coats with a top coat.
Another very pretty nude with a twist! This is great for someone who doesn't want a really strong shifting polish. Plus, the formula was great!
Another great collection by Alchemy Lacquers! Which one was your favorite?
