I know this isn’t Throwback Thursday yet, (although it technically will be in about 1 hour) but I have an older polish in my collection for you guys today. This isn’t super old, but this was given to me by Zenorah a year ago in our swap. I can’t get Bourgeois polishes where I live and was lucky enough that she thought to include this polish. As far as I know, and anyone from the UK or Canada please feel free to correct me, the So Laque line is the ultra glossy finish polishes from Bourgeois. I think this was the second polish that I reached for out of all the amazing polishes she sent me and ended up being one of my favorite polishes last winter! So naturally, I had an itch to wear it again this winter to see if the love was still there.
Bourgeois So Laque “Bleu Violet” is exactly as the name suggests, a blue purple. I real life, the polish is a little more purple, closer to what you see in the bottle in the picture. The camera loves to turn this polish into a royal blue. It is super super glossy and shiny and I love it!
The formula is sort of like a jelly formula. It applies like a jelly, but it dries to look like a creme. Reminds me of those sorbet finishes from OPI. It takes 3 coats to reach full opacity but the dry time is on the faster side. I absolutely love this I can’t wait to try this out with some jelly sandwiches now!
What do you guys think? Do any of you have any Bourgeois polishes?
I have this polish, and although I love the colour, I find the formula a bit runny. What do you think?
the formula is a little runny and kind of thin. it sucks that you need 3 coats but i still love the color that i’ll put up with it. i hope that the rest of the line isn’t like that
This is one of my fav polishes too! I love it! ❤ xx
I’m from the UK, but it’s called Bourjois here! I’ve a few different colours, but found they went quite thick quite quickly. The Bourjois 1 second ones are better 🙂
oh that sucks but now i have another brand to lust about! thanks!
Looks GORGEOUS on you!! i gotta get me some! =)
aww thanks girl! and yeah you definitely should get this one because it will look great on you. how did you like that red one you showed in a haul?
