Fanchromatic Nails Fistful of Latinum= Fistful of AWESOME



I hope you saw yesterday's post about Fanchromatic Nails The Long Summer. If not, you're going to want to check it out, because it looks amazing with a coat of Fanchromatic Nails Fistful of Latinum!! Fistful of Latinum is the second polish Lynae of Fanchromatic Nails sent me and I am IN LOVE with it! This polish is a gorgeous mix of tons of super teeny golden sparkles, and various sizes of holo gold glitter, including large holo gold hex glitter. With my love of gold holo glitter, I was destined to love this sparkler.


When I first checked out Fanchromatic Nails Etsy store, I zeroed in on Fistful of Latinum right away. I can't help it, I love gold glitter! Lynae gets inspiration for her polishes from her favorite games, movies and shows. Fistful of Latinum was inspired by Star Trek: Deep Space Nine!



This polish was easy to apply for the most part. Like most polishes with large hex glitter, you might have to fish around a bit to get a lot of them on your brush. Once they were safely on my brush, I just dab them on to put them in place. I LOVE the way this looks over The Long Summer and am wearing it now. But... just in case you wanted to see it over something else:


I'm reading Harry Potter, so here's a Gryffindor combo for ya. I love the way this next picture shows how much sparkle is really in the base. Check this out:


So sparkly! That's two coats of Fistful of Latinum over Zoya Carrie Ann. If you are loving Fistful of Latinum like I am, definitely check out Lynae's Etsy store. She has full bottles of this and The Long Summer for sale, as well as an option to pick three mini bottles! I'm eyeing Dire Wolf (Game of Thrones inspired!) in her store right now!

Fanchromatic Nails The Long Summer


I am all for the Indie polish movement, a lot of totally amazing polishes are being created these days by people who really love polish as much as you and I do. So when Lynae of Fanchromatic Nails asked if I wanted to review a couple of her polishes, I jumped at the chance! Lynae gets the inspiration for her polishes from her favorite books, movies and TV shows. Today's post is the ugly/pretty Fanchromatic Nails The Long Summer, inspired by Game of Thrones.


The Long Summer is a pea soup green jelly-ish creme. It goes on a bit sheer, but builds up to what you see here. This is three medium-thick coats. If you are a lover of weird green colors like I am, you'll definitely want to add this to your collection. I happen to love ugly/pretty greens, and I don't have one quite like this in my collection. The formula is pretty good, a bit sheer at first and streaky on the first coat, but it evened out in the end!


If you're looking for a unique pea soup green color, definitely check out The Long Summer. It looks great alone, or layered under a stunning glitter like I'll be showing you in a few days ;).


The Long Summer is available at Fanchromatic Nails Etsy store. Lynae offers international shipping and both full size and mini bottles! Also, her tagline is "polish for the geek in you" and being a big geek, I love that!
