Wing Dust Collections: Mongu at Midnight

I have a beautiful blurple based lacquer from Wing Dust Collections this evening -- Mongu at Midnight!
Mongu's base is amazing (I could have a polish with just the base color, no glitter!) and contains white and silver holographic hexes and blue and white bar glitter.
 I was able to achieve full opacity with two coats:


Consistency of Mongu was great and I love how rich and vibrant the base color is. There are bar glitters in this polish though, and as you can see in the photos these bars like to peek out of the base and require a generous coat of Gelous and a generous coat of a thicker topcoat. If you're okay with bar glitters then you'll really like this one.

Wing Dust Collections: Zambezi Sunset

I have another beauty from Wing Dust Collections. This time is Zambezi Sunset, which is inspired by the gorgeous sunsets of Zambia. 
 
When I first looked at this lacquer, I thought it had an orange base. But upon closer examination, I would say it leans more toward a salmon base with a golden micro glitter shimmer. Zambezi Sunset is a buildable jelly that you can wear on its own or over another color. It has gold, pink, yellow, and red hexes throughout in hexes and bars. It really does look like a sunset caught in a bottle.
I chose to wear Zambezi Sunset on its own and it was opaque in two coats for me. Check it out!
 I love all of the colors in this one! It's very glowy.
Application was great. I didn't have any issues whatsoever and the glitter disbursed very easily. I like that you have the option of wearing this on its own (as you can see, coverage was great) or over something else. I opted to wear Zambezi Sunset on its own to show you all of the glittery goodness.

Wing Dust Collections: Crocodile Farm

I've never been to Zambia but I can imagine all of the inspiration that one could get from making a trip there. And Stephanie of Wing Dust Collections was able to gather a ton of inspiration for her polishes on a recent trip to Zambia. One such polish is Crocodile Farm. 
 
Crocodile Farm is described as being inspired by the crocodiles that Stephanie say on a river safari in Chobe National Park in Botswana. From Etsy: "We found ourselves literally feet away from crocodiles that were almost the size of our boat as they lay sunning themselves in the hot African sun. Truly a heart-racing and incredible moment being that close to something so deadly!"

Crocodile Farm is a green jelly base with a golden micro glitter shimmer. It has gold, yellow, brown, and multiple shades of green glitters. There are holo glitters, matte glitters, and metallic glitters in a variety of shapes and sizes.
 Photos show two coats of Crocodile Farm with one coat of Poshe fast dry topcoat.
Application was great. I didn't have any issues and the glitter disbursed very easily. I like that you have the option of wearing this on its own (as you can see, coverage was great) or over something else. I opted to wear Crocdile Farm on its own to show you all of the glittery goodness.
