Outdoors in full sun:
Today's manicure is Lynnderella One Nutty Fruitcake over Illamasqua Boosh.
Boosh is a black creme. One Nutty Fruitcake is a clear base with fuchsia, green, red, purple, teal, yellow, orange, and black hex and square and some fine glitters
One Nutty Fruitcake is one of the two Holiday Houseguests in the Funny Money collection. It's a bit subtle and mysterious over black. It reminds me of the 80s somehow. Someone else recently told me it reminded them of New Years.

Lynnderella Funny Money
Outdoors in full sun:
Today's manicure is Lynnderella Funny Money over Nubar Greener.
Nubar Greener is a dark green shimmer. Funny Money is a blackened green *scented* with green square and hex glitter of various sizes with a bit of orange, red, blue and purple glitter thrown in, a bit of bar glitter, and holographic glitter.
I think this is gorgeous. Lynn says that it gets recycled glitter bits, so I don't know how much batch variability there is.

Lynnderella Ruby Red Ruby
Outdoors in full sun:
Today's manicure is Lynnderella Ruby Red Ruby over Rescue Beauty Lounge Chinoise.
Chinoise is a one coat true red creme. Ruby Red Ruby is a pinkish/sheer red jelly base loaded with a bunch of sizes of red metallic square and hex glitters. It's got a bit of a golden fire, but is pretty straight forward for a lynnderella. It's very difficult to photograph. Cameras tend to be not so great with red. It was originally released in Lynnderella's First Edition, but I bought it (in the new fatter bottle) during one of the halloween sales.
This mani is one coat Spa Ritual Lacquer Lock bc, one coat CND Stickey bc, one coat of Chinoise, two coats of Ruby Red Ruby, one coat of Revlon Quick Dry tc, and one coat of Seche Vite.

Lynnderella Mysterious Ways
Today's manicure is Lynnderella Mysterious Ways over Cult Nails My Kind of Cool Aid. My Kind of Cool Aid is also a greyed purple, but it is a much more saturated hue. Here's my post on Cool Aid: Cult Nails My Kind of Cool Aid.
Mysterious Ways is, in my opinion, one of the shades that Lynnderella does best. It's an ethereal, pale, fascinating lacquer in the vein of Gotta Love Brains and Snow Angel. I love these because I feel like they're something that nobody else does (with the exception of the incredibly lame but cool in the bottle Lippmann Glitter in the Air). Mysterious Ways is a smoky grey slightly lavender tinged sheer base with holo glitter, hex, and square glitters and white, silver, and gunmetal glitters. I included my cloudy and sun pics, since the only thing the overcast weather obscured was the holo, and I thought moody whether suited this polish.
This mani is one coat Spa Ritual Lacquer Lock bc, one coat CND Stickey bc, one coat of My Kind of Cool Aid, two coats of Mysterious Ways, one coat of Revlon Quick Dry tc, and one coat of Seche Vite.

Lynnderella Attitude Adjust-mint
Outdoors in full sun:
Today's manicure is Lynnderella Attitude Adjust-mint over Chanel Jade. This is a tonally matched mani. Here's my post on Jade from a few years back: Chanel Jade. There are many dupes just a google search away.
Attitude Adjust-mint is a sheer mint green base with iridescent and soft green glitter and hex and lovely pale green shimmer. I took all of my pictures in the overcast outdoors (because it's supposed to be cloudy all weekend), and when I finished editing them (and thinking about how crappy they looked without sun to expose the shimmery iridescence of this polish) the sun popped out. I ran outside and did it all over again. These look MUCH better.
This mani is one coat Spa Ritual Lacquer Lock bc, one coat CND Stickey bc, two coats of Chanel Jade, two coats of Attitude Adjust-mint, one coat of Revlon Quick Dry tc, and one coat of Seche Vite.
I emailed Lynn and asked her if Attitude Adjust-mint is the same formula as Minty McMintface and this was her response:
"No, AAM is much different. I used Minty McMintface for a few different things and didn't want to use it again since I had been all over the place with it. In keeping with the theme of prosperity consciousness for the Funny Money Collection, the AAM worked better."
