Apologies for the less that presentable photos, these were taken with my iPhone, because I was THAT eager to post that I couldn’t wait till I got home from work to take proper photos / edit / watermark etc.
It’s pretty rare for me to use a product and think, “omgosh I’m in love / need to tell everyone!”.
Generally MAC Lacquers are easy to use and apply pretty well. If it weren’t for the heavy price tag I’m sure I’d own a few more. But generally, they’re nothing special to me, that is till I met Scorcher. Part of the To The Beach collection, I picked this up upon the recommendation of some beauty gurus and I do not regret it one bit! If all MAC polishes would apply this well, I’d have every single colour!
Usually, I need to have at least one side of the brush completely saturated in product to fully cover one of my nails, I literally needed half a drop to completely and comfortably cover an entire nail with Scorcher. It is so pigmented, my favourite kind of product! A little goes a long way, which is the number 1 thing on my list when colour is involved.
I wonder if it was the formula or the brush, but I didn’t mess up the application at all. Usually I’ll go over my cuticles, over the sides etc, which usually means a bit of a clean up after wards. Not this time, it was like I had complete effortless control. And on top of all that, the colour is amazing! I’ve really been into some of the bright matte / cream colours this Winter, maybe it’s my rebellion against the cold? Though I feel a change coming on next week, gotta start embracing Winter before Spring arrives I think.
Overall, so glad this is now part of my collection, I love it! No regrets~ I really hope MAC keeps up the great work and I’m sure a couple more bottles will find their way into my home ๐
