hi Laqueristas! I've been eyeing up a few different polishes that I think are quite similar – shimmer-y pearly with white/blue undertone that can be used on its own or as a topper. Settled on these three:
Clionadh Cosmetics – LUX
Beaux Rêves Lacquer -Moonstone
Sassy Sauce Polish – Blowin Bubbles
I think I can justify max. 2 out of these 3 but not all of them as they are quite similar (and have some other polishes I am eyeing up hehe). can you help me decide which ones to get, or share your experience with either of them?
Thank you all 🧡

So it looks like there’s just different undertones to me, the first one is pinky, the second is greenish and the third is like a peach. My experience with all those Brands is they’re all good formulas. So I personally like the pink and Peach just cuz those are the shades I like.
I would pick Clionadh first just based off of my experience with their quality in general. Second would be Blowin Bubbles, because it’s very shifty. The Beaux Reves looks the least shifty the 3
be aware that shipping for Clionadh is limited at the moment depending where you are located and even within Canada with the postage strikes. I would 100% go with that brand though, always great quality!
I would personally go for the Clionadh because I have BKL’s Get Lobstered which looks a lot like the other two. I love a golden pearl shimmer like that (Lux), it looks so angelic.
ETA: Blowin Bubbles has a lot of holo in it that you wouldn’t expect from most photos of it, it’s gorgeous, but probably a bit more different from the other two that way.
Are you in Canada? Otherwise it might be hard to get Cliondah right now, even though I’m a huge fan of their formula. Every polish I have from Beaux Reves is a stunner though!
Blowing bubbles is my FAVORITE. it’s so gorgeous as topper or on its own, in the sun and shade, she’s perfect

i don’t know if this will help you or not, but i have and LOVE LOVE LOVE blowin’ bubbles (and literally everything else created by the mind of Carrie Duffy)
here’s my swatch of it, outdoor sun and indoor shade in next comment 🙂
I have Cirque Colors’ Serenity which is very similar to these! It seems a little more opaque though so idk how it would be as a topper but I thought I’d mention anyway. I think they have another color with a more blue undertone, Serenity is pretty green. Their Pearl Nacre collection has all different undertones like these and they’re gorgeous

I like the third one the most 🙂
Sassy Sauce polishes last forever, super chip resistant.
I have Lux and I feel it’s far more yellow than it looks in the pictures, I didn’t like it

I’d get the first one because it has the most colours in its shimmer
Omg the Clionadh one is soo pretty! I’m bummed that they are apparently having issues shipping to US right now because I want a few of their polishes. Look at that shift 😮💨
I like the sassy sauce. The clionadh looks too yellow.
