Hi everyone! Today I have the first in a new monthly series by Lollipop Posse Lacquer called The Year of Tarot. Karen will be releasing a few shades each month inspired by the Tarot Major Arcana, and I'm so glad to have the first four shades to show you. These beauties are available now (along with a new March Limited Edition shade) in the Lollipop Posse Lacquer shop.
The Moon is a deep violet jelly with blue crystal flakes and larger color-shifting blue/green/gold iridescent flakes with a sprinkle of red/blue/purple color shifting shimmer. Formula was easy to spread and it applied flawlessly in 3 thin coats. Photos really don't show all of the goodness in this polish! I really love the glowy redness that shows at some angles.
The Moon is the card of intuition, dreams, and the unconscious. When viewed upright, The Moon often represents your "shadow" self, and carries with it the fear of projecting ill feelings of past experiences into your present and future. To remedy this, you must psychologically purge; dig deep within yourself to discover and let go of your invisible anxieties, fears, and blocks. Oftentimes, The Moon appears when you are not sure of your destination, or even of the path you are traveling, but you travel nonetheless.
The Magician is a sheer wine-purple jelly with bronze/gold/green shifting shimmer, holographic galaxy glitters, and pink/green/gold shifting chameleon chrome flakes. Formula is a little sheer, but in a good way that gives it a beautiful squishy finish at 3 thin coats. This polish is AMAZING! There is so much going on, but it all comes together to make one glorious polish.
The Magician is associated with the planet Mercury, and brings with it skill, logic, and intellect. The number of The Magician is one - the number of beginnings. It typically appears to you in a time in your life when you have creative power and energy to create a new life cycle for yourself. You have the ability to take the power of the universe and manifest your desires. The Magician encourages you to apply skill and initiative to accomplish your goals, and a strong sense of optimism will dominate your actions and bring positive results.
The Lovers is a shimmery nude crelly that is packed with pink to purple color shifting duochrome shimmer. Formula started off sheer, but built up easily to full coverage in 3 thin coats. This is a super elegant nude with a little pizazz. The color shifting shimmer is perfect!
The Lovers represent perfection and harmony. Their trust in one another gives them strength and confidence to overcome the obstacles in life. On a more personal level, The Lovers card represents the establishment of your personal beliefs and becoming clearer about your own values. This is a time when you need to stay true to yourself and be as authentic and genuine as possible. You may come to face a difficult decision or moral dilemma, and you must make your choices and act on your decisions so that they reflect your beliefs and values.
The Empress is a duochrome crelly that shifts between lavender and a light, mossy green, with silver holographic flakes and pink/green/blue shifting chameleon chrome flakes. Formula started off sheer, but built up nicely to opacity in 3 thin coats. When I saw this in the bottle, I thought it was going to be frosty/metallic, but it completely transformed when I put it on the nail. I thought that the lavender/green shift was just beautiful and I adore the mix of holo flakes and chrome flakes.
The Empress shows a deep connection with our femininity. Femininity is personified in many ways - beauty, sensuality, fertility, creativity, nurturing - and is necessary in creating an internal balance for both men and women. The Empress calls on you to connect with that energy and create beauty in your life. Utilize your senses to experience pleasure and deep fulfillment, and spend time connecting with nature. The Empress also encourages you to connect with others by nurturing, caring for, and supporting those around you. To do so will create abundance and radiance in your life.
