I got a couple of samples of the new MAC Lacquer yesterday, so after my nail art went down like a lead balloon, I thought I’d quickly erase all evidence by repainting and swatching with MAC! So, the formulas are interesting…they’re quite thin in consistency which meant for Skin I had to go to four layers – that is usually a no-no for me – I have better stuff to do than spend the hours applying four layers of polish – but this is a really, really lovely nude with an apricot tone in the back. Formidable is a devil to get a picture of; it has a brown/red backdrop with turquoise and purple shimmer in the top – the overall effect is green-ish irridescence over deep red. I love it. In the pictures I have applied Lumos High Speed Top Coat.. neither polish is as shiny without it.

Oh and also I have only three ‘working’ nails at the moment thanks to a very low break on my forefinger which is going to take almost forever to grow out.

Formidable is one of my all time favourite polishes!
Has it been re released?
Formidable looks formidable – I might need to own this. However MAC really should know better than to use names like Skin (or indeed Flesh or Nude) for something that is pale pink – way to alienate and annoy a large chunk of your potential market.
