Today I have part one of the Fall for FLL collection from Finger Lickin' Lacquer. These arrived on my doorstep at the perfect time - the weather is cooling down, the sweaters are coming out of storage, and I'm looking forward to ALL THE PIE!
A note on the formula - these are all on the thinner side so, depending on your preference and how thick your coats are, you may need three or four coats to build opacity. I was able to get away with two coats for most of them but I do use thicker coats.

Apple Tart is a bright red scattered holographic polish that brings to mind chilly nights at the carnival with candied apples, or brisk fall days spent up at the local apple orchard picking apples and stopping in for some warm apple cider and maybe an apple cider doughnut too. It is scented with an apple tart fragrance.
I LOVE this one. It is so reminiscent of bright red Macintosh apples and the jelly formula is wonderfully squishy. The scent is understated and lovely and is just perfect.
Cranberry Cosmo is a cranberry intensely holographic polish with the sweet and tart fragrance of cranberry relish. This polish has all of the sparkle and shimmer of the cosmos packed into a beautiful cranberry red that is perfect for Thanksgiving dinner.
I have to say, I'm really digging the reds this season (which is weird for me) and this is another amazing one. Again, the scent isn't overpowering and just adds a nice touch.
Mauvelous, Dahling! is a mauve scattered holographic polish. Mauve is a perfect fall color and goes well with everything, and the subtle holographic sparkle really makes the polish pop. Mauvelous, Dahling! is the third unscented polish in the fall collection.
I mentioned this in episode six of Nail Newscast (promo!) but I think Jennifer did a fantastic job of making this a vampy fall colour. Mauve can easily fall in the "old lady" category but this polish is anything but stodgy.
Pumking is an orange scattered holographic polish with hints of green shimmer. Pumking is the perfect pumpkin polish for fall. It’s perfect for trips to the pumpkin patch and for carving your spooky jack-o-lantern. Pumking is scented like sweet pumpkin pie.
This may be a weird statement, but I feel like this a great "neutral" orange in that it would look good on many different skin tones. The subtle green tones keep it from being garish and the scent, again, is the perfect little something.
I apologize for the little fuzzies - why do you never see those until the editing process? Gah! Have a great weekend!

I love these. All of them.
