If I had All of Time and Space...I'd Go Back and Buy Up All of the NerdLacquers!

Seriously!

Today is Green in the Rainbow Challenge and I picked NerdLacquer All of Time and Space.  Most of my favorite greens I have already swatched:  a England Dragon, Essie Mojito Madness, Lacquistry Lake Placid on Acid.  So when I was going through my melmer I spotted this soft minty green and I knew it was time.

See, I've been holding off putting this one on, waiting for something special.  This was my first indie polish purchase and therefore it holds a special place in my heart.   The fact I'll never be able to get any more Nerds pains me.  I wish I had a TARDIS to go back and tell that silly gal who only ordered 2 from that sale (which was her last) to ORDER THEM ALL!

Sigh, I miss NerdLacquer.  If wish she never left.  Unfortunately, if she were to return, I'd need assurances I would get my product before I bought (like on ebay or something).  I'm sure there was a good reason for her departure and at least she isn't going on in a giant ball of flames like one other egotistical batshit crazy person *cough* The Lynnderella *cough*.

Such a pretty combo.   Definitely one of my favorites!

This was 4 coats to achieve the opacity I wanted, but it is just chocked full of awesomeness.

      No one knows, she just sort of disappeared one day. I think there was a lot of outstanding orders never filled either. It bums me out. I hope wherever she is that she is okay.

    You didn't use a base color! Awesome! I feel like there are way too many indies that require a base color to look "right," and it's always fun and refreshing to see one that doesn't. The color is fantastic, too.

      I agree, with all three of my Nerds they never needed underwear. I swear I end up buying more polishes to be used as bases under indies than indies!

    I need this! Why, oh why, didn't I buy some Nerdlacquers when I had the chance? I'm still beating myself up for letting it pass...

    I know it is a hot commodity during swaps and such.

    I feel like your entire review here came directly out of my brain. My thoughts exactly, on every point! I even bought just two myself, this one and Cyance Friction. How many times have I wished I could go back in time and buy the whole collex? I'd love to own it for trade possibilities, but then again, her stuff is so pretty, I can't imagine polishes I'd want more than hers. I guess I'd just be really happy hugging a drawer full of them, grinning like an idiot. Wish she'd come back.
