This polish was featured in my March Wantable subscription beauty box. This is Spellbound Nail Lacquer by Liberty Republic's Belladonna. Unfortunately, this was a collaboration between Wantable and Jordan Liberty of Liberty Republic, and so the lacquers were only available here, from what I recall, but the box with all seven shades is discontinued now. You can try your hand at subscribing to Wantable to get a lacquer. You have to make sure that your quiz is checked for receiving nail polishes, but receiving one of Spellbound is somewhat random, I think.
I would have liked to try the other shades, but even I was late to that party.
You get a square shaped top and bottle. I have seen some blogs feature the lid and brush handle as separate pieces, but mine was a simple all-in-one twist brush that worked with no problems. The brush is of a simple standard make; it's not overall large or small, but application does require more dipping. You get 14.8 ml (0.50 oz) of polish in this bottle.
Now this is a lovely shade to start off with the Spring. It is a light, strawberry milk colour. I found that with two thin coats applied on the nails, there is still a bit of streakiness happening. With three coats, it definitely looks more solid.
While opacity is a little bit of an issue, the formula, even with three coats, does not feel heavy on the nails. I find it a very comfortable formula. A lot of polishes tend to vary in density, and this one I find comparable to essie's polishes. With such a luxurious quality to it, I am very curious to try more of Liberty Republic's polishes now. Too bad I may not be able to anymore.
I do also like Liberty Republic's logo. Very fitting, simple, and tasteful. =)
