You can check my previous posts featuring the entire collection in this link.
Be sure to stop by at their store to get your favorite princess shades before they are sold out.
FUN Lacquer is also having a pre-sale of their new Christmas collection, so be sure to check it as well. I will be posting swatches of this collection soon at the blog, so there's more FUN Lacquer to come!
Merida is a reddish brown base with holographic effect. I really liked this color and I think it's great for fall. Thanks to the darker shade the holographic effect is relatively strong, which was great because some of the colors in this collection have a more subtle effect.
The formula was great as with all darker shades, and I only needed two coats for perfect coverage.
Mulan is a nude / light brown with a subtle holographic effect. I don't know why but I really love nude shades with a holographic effect, but I'm not sure how I feel about them on my long nails.
This color has a subtle effect, but still very beautiful.
Because of the light color, the formula was a bit sheer so I needed three thin coats to get a good coverage.
Snow White is a light gray base with a very subtle holographic effect. With white /light gray holographic polish it's usually hard to get a strong holographic effect, so as you can see the effect here is quite weak, but still it's a lovely frosty shade.
The formula was too sheer for my taste, so I ended up applying three thick coats of this color to get it fully opaque.
The Princess Collection by FUN Lacquer is available for purchase at their store, note that the stock is limited and they are soon to be sold out.
The full size bottles retail for $13 (16.7ml) and the minis for $7.5 (7ml), shipped worldwide from Singapore.

Be sure to check my previous posts with more swatches of the Princess Collection - Belle, Tiana & Pocahontas and Jasmine, Ariel & Cinderella.
Rapunzel is a purple holographic polish, it's holo effect is pretty strong and noticeable and I just love it's color. The formula was very good and two easy coats were enough for a perfect coverage. This color also had a matte / plastic finish so I applied a top coat over it to add some shine. I would say this color has relatively strong holographic effect compared to other colors in this collection, so this one is easily my favorite.
Aurora is a sweet pink polish with a subtle holographic effect, it has a lovely warm pink shade and it's formula was surprisingly nice, concidering it's a light color. I only needed two coats for full coverage. It dried a bit matte so for these photos I applied a top coat to add it some shine.
I wish the holographic effect of this color was a bit stronger, but still it's lovely shade with a nice effect, so there's something to like about this color as well.

In today's post I am going to share with you another trio from the Princess Collection by FUN Lacquer. For this time I chose three colors in blue and green tones, these colors just look like they can work great as ombre skittle mani, and of course they are beautiful on their own.
This time I decided to skip to top coat part, I felt like these colors had a bit more shine to them. and I felt like the glossy finish didn't really translate to the photos from the previous post.
These colors also had a quite subtle holographic effect, but I find that with these colors he effect is more impressive in person.

Jasmine is a light turquoise that leans more to the blue tones. Compared to the two colors in this post, this one has a relatively stronger holographic effect.
This color reminded me of Pupa Sky Blue, although I find that Pupa had a stronger effect.
For the photos below I applied two coats, no top coat.

Ariel is a turquoise base with a delicate holographic effect. The macro shot of the sparkly effect in the first photo just looks like mermaid's tail, and I think this color is a perfect match to it's name.
I applied two coats, the formula was great and opaque, but I was disapointed to find out it left my nails badly stained. I admit - I didn't wear any base coat underneath it (as I do now with all my swatches) but it stained my nails pretty bad, and I only wore it for about ten minutes or so. I would strongly recommend wearing it with a good base coat or even two, just to be sure.
Cinderella is sky blue base with a subtle holo effect. It's a lovely color, although the holographic effect is barely noticeable in my photos.
I was surprised to find that it had a quite opaque formula, so I only needed two coats here as well.
The Princess Collection by FUN Lacquer is available for purchase at their Etsy store and at their Facebook store.

FUN Lacquer is an indie and handmade brand that is located in Singapore. This collection is available in a full size bottles (16.7ml) and a mini size (7ml) for your choice, and they are shipped worldwide from Singapore.
In the first part I will show you three of the colors from this collection, which I also think are beautiful colors which are suitable for fall. These colors have a medium holographic effect, not too strong but more subtle effect. These surprised my by having a great formula, I got a great coverage with just two coats, even with lighter colors. I have noticed that most of the colors dried with a matte effect, so I applied a one coat of Poshe top coat to give it a pretty and glossy finish.
I received the entire collection to review and share it with you, and I can tell you these colors are even prettier in real life.
So let's get to the FUN part of this post, the swatches of these beautiful colors!
Belle is a gold holographic polish, it has a lovely warm tone to it which I really like in gold polishes.
The scattered holo effect is subtle but lovely non the less.
For these photos I applied two coats of FUN Lacquer Belle and one coat of Poshe.
Tiana is a light green holo with yellow undertones, a very light and fresh color. I found this color very interesting and unique, I certainty don't own anything like it in my stash.
I was surprised to see that such a light color can be completely opaque in just two coats.
This is also two coats and one coat of Poshe on top to add it some gloss.
Pocahontas is a dark brown holographic polish, I love how chocolaty and rich this color looks. This is again a very interesting color, and I think it's gorgeous for fall!
The formula was great as well, the dark color easily provided great coverage with easy two coats.
For the photos I used two coats and one coat of Poshe top.
