10 Year Blog Anniversary | Vapid Lacquer

by Lisa Heath

Giveaway Items Gifted by Vapid Lacquer

Okay I missed yesterday – but it was Nick’s 32nd bday and I was busy. I also got to work from home yesterday due to the weather, and Jacob had a snow day from school… so Nick got a full house for his bday. Of course he also works from home, so since he’s in meetings all day and I would be on the phone with patients (HIPAA) I was in a different section of the house for privacy reasons. Bonus of having an extra bedroom – we can all spread out.

Anyways – for day 7 we have Vapid Lacquer!

As most know, I’m an admin for the Vapicorns FB group. Vapid Lacquer was actually the first group I was a mod or admin for. So for the past 5 or 6 years I have swatched every single release Krys has released. She rarely does customs either, so I was thrilled when she said she would be happy to create a polish for my 10 year blog anniversary!

To celebrate my 10 years of constant posts – I have asked for maker volunteers to create a custom polish for a series of giveaways! Each maker donated at least 2 bottles of a custom – one for me to swatch and keep for the milestone and one to giveaway. 

While they made the custom for my blog – makers were given permission to release the custom at a later date. Not all will do this – some literally made it but didn’t save a recipe while others do intend to release it later. So I did make sure there was no exclusivity to the polish, and it’s up to the makers discretion.

Each maker had free rein to create what they wished to. I am a swatcher and not a maker for a reason and each individual maker has their own signature touch.

10 Year Blog Anniversary | Vapid Lacquer

Beep Boop is a medium-deep grey jelly base loaded with red to gold to green shifting aurora pigment and matching iridescent flakes that range from micro to large (see that honker on my ring finger nail?) and it has a dash of reflect glitter for a bit of added sparkle.

Shown is 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat.

Krys does intend on having a whole collection with this style out eventually – and it most likely will include this polish.

The Rules for The Giveaway

Thank you Krys for taking a chance on me as your mod, and then somehow upgrading me to admin :D

Danielle Hamilton January 8, 2022 - 6:02 pm

I have drawers of vapids…but one of my favs is Tequila Mockingbird. It’s a gorgeous neutral with a bit of sparkle.

Misty January 8, 2022 - 6:02 pm

My favorite Vapid Lacquer is HFNY16. It’s the perfect amount of holo, sparkle, shimmer, and goodness.

I’m new to Vapid but I loved all of your swatches from their most recent collection, especially Another Dimension!

Bria Davis January 9, 2022 - 7:38 am

Fave Vapid is Grape Stomp, but I love all of Krys’ crellies too, like Snowball’s Chance which has captured my heart.
This polish is absolutely gorgeous and I’m obsessed with it! Congratulations on your 10-year blog anniversary. I really hope this polish does come out for sale because I need at least two bottles of it!!

Megan Milani January 8, 2022 - 7:38 pm

Gorgeous custom. My favourite Vapid is Cryogenic Refrigeration.

Carolyn Spengler January 8, 2022 - 7:39 pm

We’re All Mad Here. That’s my favorite Vapid.

Janel Wormley January 8, 2022 - 7:40 pm

I have not tried Vapid polish, but I have used their nail sauce……amazing!!!!

Lynn January 8, 2022 - 7:56 pm

I don’t know my favorite Vapid. I have quite a few but haven’t played with them lately. If I looked back, I’d probably pick one of the purples, but offhand, I’m enjoying biohazard, and a dead Sweaters and Denim I got in a destash and didn’t know it had been a thermal. To me it was just a lovely neutral polish.

Kate Fancher January 8, 2022 - 8:19 pm

Understory!

glee January 8, 2022 - 9:04 pm

sweaters and denim! <3

Sarah K. January 8, 2022 - 9:11 pm

I loved El Cosmico and I’m sad I missed it!

Carolyn DiSandro January 13, 2022 - 9:42 am

Sarah K., I don’t know if you’ll see this, but there is one for sale I saw on Mercari (not my listing): https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m78204436913/?ref=search_results

Alyson Bermudez January 8, 2022 - 9:44 pm

Most of the time multicolor flakes get swallowed up by a black jelly or crelly base and you can’t see them from a foot away. Not so with Pestilence! Not only is it my favorite Vapid, it’s my favorite black base multicolor flakie polish. Also, I love Vapid’s waxes.

Erica Drouin January 9, 2022 - 1:51 am

I love Cyber Punk. It’s a classic, what can I say!?

Michaela T January 9, 2022 - 3:05 am

This is gorgeous !! Congrats on 10 years

Jessica Amsden January 9, 2022 - 6:27 am

Congrats on 10 years!

Man, it’s hard to pick a favorite. She creates so many pretties. I’m a bit partial to DAB.

Michelle B January 9, 2022 - 7:36 am

Congrats again on 10 years, and I’m loving the customs people created for you. My all time fave Vapid has to be Spellcaster. Remember when the internet blew up over that one?

Kerre January 9, 2022 - 7:37 am

I’ve been adding to my collection via destash purchases, and I’m currently loving Cookies for Satan (holiday polish from a past year).

D.Nara January 9, 2022 - 7:57 am

Fave Vapids include Magellanic Cloud and Wanderlust. But so many more are amazing.

Stacy Pennock January 9, 2022 - 8:02 am

Cadillac Ranch!!

Lily Moy-Maldonado January 9, 2022 - 8:13 am

Lindsay Coffman January 9, 2022 - 10:46 am

I don’t have any Vapid Lacquer yet

Carolyn DiSandro January 9, 2022 - 10:57 am

Huge Vapid fan, so of course I am entering this one! I just caught your comment about why you post the winner’s name AFTER contacting them – that’s really a sad state affairs that someone would fake an email address to claim a giveaway prize!!! :(

J.L. Smith January 9, 2022 - 10:58 am

Cadillac Ranch

Kirstie January 9, 2022 - 2:28 pm

I only have a couple Vapid’s, but my favorite of what I have is “You Lost the Substance by Grasping at the Shadows”

My favorite is You Lost the Substance by Grasping at the Shadows, it’s one of my favorite polishes ever!

Dana Liz January 9, 2022 - 3:08 pm

Ashlee January 9, 2022 - 5:45 pm

My favorite Vapid would have to be Whooo Are You? It was my very first indie polish ever!

Melanie M January 9, 2022 - 7:33 pm

Whooo are you?

Chris R January 9, 2022 - 10:27 pm

Hard to chose just one. Her holos are great. I really like Lonely Hunter, Gin Tastes Like Pine Trees, and Perseides.

Carolyn DiSandro January 10, 2022 - 4:13 am

LOL, commenting again because I was bad at following directions… you’re going to make me pick a favorite Vapid?! I’m not sure I can, but the first one that pops to mind as a contender is Leviathan, so I’ll go with that for now

polishedbynay/Nicolette January 10, 2022 - 6:41 am

I love all my Vapid, but I think a recent favorite is Cadillac Ranch.

Gail Tucker January 10, 2022 - 9:13 am

Demolition Barbie

Dayna January 10, 2022 - 11:12 am

My fave Vapid is Sweaters n Denim.

Polished Hippy January 10, 2022 - 3:03 pm

I was one of the brand’s first customers, starting in 2013! I still have every single early release, but skip a lot of the releases now. I still love their linear holos best.

Tracy W January 10, 2022 - 4:02 pm

My favorite Vapid is Nonsense.

Denise January 10, 2022 - 8:28 pm

I don’t have any Vapid yet, but would love to find Cyber Punk.

Paula January 10, 2022 - 11:32 pm

I really love Coconut Octopus and Cadillac Ranch

BRANDY LITZ January 11, 2022 - 1:21 am

All of the Birthday Bitches!

My favorite Vapid is La Fae Verte Dirty Holo XXX! And Krys also makes my favorite lotion ever, Coconut Octopus scent goat milk body cream!! Plus she has the most excellent customer service!!

Michelle January 11, 2022 - 4:57 am

I like the HFNY

Jade Dotson January 11, 2022 - 5:03 am

I love Sweaters and Denim the most, even though it’s mostly dead. Happy anniversary! I come to your blog for the most accurate representation of colors. ❤️

Tessa W January 11, 2022 - 6:57 am

Congratulations Lisa!
My favorite is Phoenix Feathers. I like the versatility, have used it as both a stand alone polish and a topper.

Angela L January 11, 2022 - 7:35 am

I think my favorite I own would have to be Cadillac Ranch. <3

Noreen Frost January 11, 2022 - 9:06 pm

Incantation is my favorite though I haven’t been able to find it.

Erin M January 12, 2022 - 8:13 am

My first ever vapid order years ago included Firestarter, and I think I can safely say it is still my favorite. There is no other red like it. But I also love vapid’s body products- some of the only scented products i can safely use! I don’t know how Krys magically created scented items that don’t bother me, but here we are ‍♀️ I have an entire bathroom closet full of body sprays, perfume oils, nail sauces, soaps, and face products.

Cloudy January 12, 2022 - 8:42 am

I‘m new to Vapid but this one’s gorgeous!

Lindsay Coffman January 12, 2022 - 11:32 am

Such a fun polish

Brittany January 12, 2022 - 12:09 pm

I don’t have any vapids yet, but I need to try Firestarter!

Lyla San Jose January 12, 2022 - 12:43 pm

Congratulations on 10 years! I really love this polish and would love to own it!

Noreen January 13, 2022 - 7:53 am

Let’s summon demons is one of my favorite Vapids (that and Npx-roy. I love me some purples). But my all time favorite perky base is Vapids Commitment Issues….thanks to you and your blog

Tanyatopia January 13, 2022 - 8:25 am

This is a tough one, but I think my favorite Vapid is one of my first, Sweaters & Denim, though I am also partial to Candied Apple Bobbing, and Spellcaster.

Linsey Hall January 14, 2022 - 6:25 pm

Sweaters and Denim was one of my first polishes from Vapid and i still love it. I also love Understory and Satan’s Cookies!

Nicole Y. January 15, 2022 - 5:56 am

I haven’t tried this brand yet. This is a beautiful polish though!

Marilynn M Schroeder January 15, 2022 - 2:12 pm

Happy Anniversary Lisa! My fav Vapid polish is a toss up between Candy Paint and Original Sin!
