Good afternoon my fellow Lacquered Lovers! Some exciting new stuff happening in Lacquered Lover world today! As I'm sure you've noticed if you are reading this blog post, Lacquered Lover got a polish change last night! The amazingly talented ladies from Mac & Mo redid the website for me and I love what they came up with! They are currently in the process of getting their own personal websites set up but if you'd like to contact them for any design or website inquiries (which you should because they are amazing to work with!) then shoot them an email at macandmo.design@gmail.com. Also if you'd like to see some of their other work, you can see Nicole's website HERE and Emily's website HERE! Thanks again ladies, I think it looks amazing!
Along with the new layout/header/font, I see that I can now reply to comments directly! So, if you are leaving comments, make sure you check back for a reply! I'm also playing around with making the pictures larger! Let me know what you think!
Now, to go along with my fabulous new website, I have a fabulous new manicure to show you! Later this afternoon I'll show you all the pieces that went into it, but for now, I will show you a few pictures of the finished product! Now, without further ado, on to the polish!
Yes lacquered lover, it's a duochrome flakie matted manicure. I'm obsessed with it! I started off with one coat of Finger Paints Black Expressionism, my new favorite one coat black polish! Next came one coat of Ozotics 506 which I will give a more in depth post on later today. 506 is a gorgeous blue to purple duochrome! Then I added a new flakie, Picture Polish Festival on top before making the entire manicure matte! I love how matte flakies look and am so glad I discovered that if you matte a duochrome, it's still a duochrome!
So there you have it, an all new Lacquered Lover with a fun new manicure! I'm so excited with how far my little blog has come since starting it last May and thanks to all of you for sticking around for the ride! I'd love to hear your feedback on the new site so feel free to comment below!

ReplyDeleteThanks Laurie!
DeleteThe new design on the site looks great! It's an easy blog to navigate and it's not too cluttered.
ReplyDeleteThe mani is great too. Seeing a matte flakie is a welcome change from all the glossy flakie manis I've been seeing lately and I'm glad that matte doesn't take away from duochomes!
Thanks! I love matte flakies lately! It just gives such a different look! And I was so excited to find out that making a duochrome matte still makes it a duochrome!
DeleteThe layout is spiffy! I really like your new header-- looks like it's straight out of a fashion mag!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love what the lovely ladies at Mac & Mo came up with for me!
DeleteLovely!!! I wonder what my Fantasy Fire or Clarins would look like matted with flakies? I might try tomorrow!! <3
ReplyDeleteAh I can't wait to see what you come up with!!! I'm sure it'll be gorgeous!
DeleteLOVING the new layout! Matte with flakies is SO on my To Do List! I just added this to my Pinterest so I remember to try it with a duochrome! Keep up the good work!!
ReplyDeleteI love this matted!
ReplyDeleteLOVE THE NEW LOOK! LOOKS GREAT! :)
ReplyDeletelove this one - you macro shot really shows this one off.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to know duochromes don't lose the magic when they are matted. I found out recently that mattifying kills holos, and just leaves you with the underlying color.
