Happy Sunday! Arcana Lacquer is back with another new collection – and I have it here to show you tonight!
Arcana Lacquer The Lands Between is a 9 piece collection inspired by the game Elden Ring! This collection has a dark and moody color story, which I know will thrill some of you cause you get a break in the neons and pastels of Spring!
I will have a video up soon – I will add it in once completed.
For the fine details, I do use Apres Gel X Nails in Extra Short Stiletto which are clear nails. I do not use blurring base coats or anything to increase opacity of the nails – and it shows during my YouTube videos especially. With the clear nails, if you can see through the tip still – then odds are you will also see VNL through the polish I have on. If you cannot see through them, then opacity was likely reached
I work during the day in a medical office, and on weekends I enjoy day time shenanigans with my son – so most of my swatching is done at night in studio lighting. I also use a fairly basic, older point and shoot camera (Nikon L830) and I don’t do any fun frills to be fancy cause I don’t know how, if we’re being completely honest.
Let’s take a look! This collection is set to release on May 15th.

Arcana Lacquer | The Lands Between
I really enjoyed this collection and the inspiration. The formulas were really nicely done, the thermals were reactive and it all glided on smoothly.
