Seche Nail Lacquer Collage Swatches and Giveaway!

Did you know that Seche Nail Lacquer has a new glittery top coat out called Collage just in time for the sparkly holiday season? Well now you do!
Collage features medium and small hexagonal holographic glitter, large hexagonal white glitter and holographic bar glitter in a clear base. If you want to get really up close and personal with her, check out my Weekly Macro.


Collage over OPI Lucky Lucky Lavender
Here you can see what the flakes look like pretty well. All the holographic glitter is very holographic. The super large hex white chunks kind of threw me off. I didn’t really see them until I painted my nails and they seem a bit…odd? Because the polish is on the chunky side (but not too thick or sticky) it does have that issue of glittery pieces not going where you may want them. I had to adjust the larger chunks into a more pleasing spot at times. The white hex piece seem so large that they don’t always lay flat depending on where on your nail they are. So that is kind of a pain. I would prefer it without the white chunks.
I did apply two coats here and waited a few minutes in-between so things didn’t get too clumped towards the tips.

I would wear this as a jelly sandwich with one of the OPI Ballet series or Zoya Katherine from the NYFW 2012 collection. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I would wear Collage over a silver foil.
O_o this is pretty! I would probably wear this first over a black creme or dark purple shimmer!
Kristin´s last post…My epic nail mail!
Probably part of a glitter gradient!
I normally would try to sandwich that color with one of my OPI sorbets, or Nfu-OH jellies, but as I was writing this, it popped in my head to do a checkerboard design and put the hexagons from the polish at the diamond points for effect…
SchaChia´s last post…Finally, I Return…..
I would wear this over a red creme.
Love your blog!
I would wear Collage over a black creme!
Emily Lacquerologist´s last post…Born Pretty Store 2mm Small Square Studs!
I think I’d put it over a dark green, for Christmas.
I would do a jelly sandwich using a sheer neon green. Heck yes!
I think I’d do it over black, so it could be the star! Really fun polish.
Is it also fast-dry like Seche Vite, or did you wait until your first polish was dry?
I would wear this over pinks and purple cremes. So pretty!
I would wear this with OPIs vodka and caviar! I think it would be perfect for Christmas!
I’d wear this over a pale blue so it would look like snow and ice!
I love this- would wear over a bright red!
I would wear it over red! Amazing!
Over black for New Year’s!
I would definitely wear this over Zoya Kristen!! That seems like the perfect winter glitter combo!! =)
I think I would try it over For Audrey!
i would wear it over black!
I’d wear it over all the polishes I own that may be a bit boring on their own.
I’d wear it over Fergie’s Grammy gold and just watch it glitter and glitter! Thanks for the chance!
ohhhpretty! i would wear it over some dark inky blurple
I would also wear it as a jelly sandwich with one of the jellies from the OPI ballet collection. Simple and beautiful
Thats not a fair question because I can picture about 50 polishes I have that I want to try this Seche over!!! I would start with some darked=r colors first like Orly’s Witches Blue!!!
Nicole´s last post…Lazy 15 Challenge-Guilty Pleasure
I think it would make a great New Year’s Eve mani. I’d layer it over Essie Marshmallow for a snowy dico ball look
I would love to wear it over my polish that is a part of the Rescue Beauty Fan 2.0 collection when it’s released.
Hmmm, I’d wear it over a navy blue so it pops!
I’d wear it over white! Pretty!!
Michelle Miller´s last post…A beauty show not to be missed! Tune in for the Victoria Secret Fashion Show!
I would us this for a jelly sandwich of course! I would try it with Essie Marshmallow, or Essie Marabou since it is pretty sheer. Along with trying it out over OPI Funkey Dunkey!
I would wear collage over pretty much every color but I would wanna try it over Essie go overboard or Essie ole caliente!
I’d wear it over lavender on nails or maybe over plum on my toes
I’d wear it in lots of ways! My first thought would be over a black cream, though. It would also make for pretty jelly sandwiches, and would go nicely with pastels.
I would wear it over black, silver, white or some sort of gradient. Great giveaway by the way!
I would wear it over Color Club Worth the Risque.
I’d wear it over Orly Rage – the rose gold coat under the silvery, glittery topcoat would be very pretty.
I would wear it over my dolce and gabbana wild green or a dark purple. Thanks for the chance to win! <3

Michelle´s last post…MOTW – Sinful Colors Timbleberry and Funky Fingers Sand and Stillettos
I’d do an ombre holographic nail, with the heaviest at the tips! I’d probably use a candy apple red base.
I would love it over a deep grey!
I would like to try Collage on all color bases and would like to use Essie Marshmallow to use it for a Jelly Sandwich.

I would probably wear it over black cause I just love black and pink together. It’s so pretty and there’s just something about it that is SOO unique. Or this antique gold color I have. That would b way to pretty. If I do win this color (which I more than likely won’t. With my luck.. ) that’s the first way ill try it. Over the gold. That would be absolutely beautiful!
I’d do a red/green Christmas mani with all green fingers except for red on one accent nail, with Collage on top of that.
I would wear it over any colored nail polish I have!
Probably over a nice blue.
Love this! I would wear it lots of ways… I’d like to pair it with Zoya Wednesday for a fun look.

I would layer it over a charcoal gray polish.
I would wear Collage over a silver sparkly nail polish for an extra shine when I am on the dance floor! So pretty!
I would totally layer collage over a million different colors of polish: black, white, blue, neutrals, and it would look great as an accent finger or two.
I would love to try it over a black!
I would love to wear this over China Glaze ruby Pumps…
I would put collage over probably everything!
Would give it to my 14 year old and have her wear it!!
I would do a tape mani with a black and white polish and then add this over the black!
Great giveaway! Thanks!
KaraLindsey´s last post…12 Days of Christmas Challenge – Day 2
I think this would look great over neutrals, especially black or white!
I would wear this with stuff from Zoya’s Gems & Jewels, maybe over Twila
I would definitely wear Collage over a black cream. Seems like such a NYE combination!
My choice would be to wear this over dark colours – I’d probably try over the suede version of Lincoln Park After Dark for a really cool sparkle underneath the glitter and bars! Thanks for the giveaway!
I would wear it over anything dark and vampy. My current favorite is Essie Wicked.
I would wear Collage over a deep blue colour. x
Shang J.´s last post…Weekly Highlight: Maybelline Color Show Nail Lacquer in Mauve Kiss
I would wear it over the new China Glaze shades I just git. There is a beautiful purple it would look fabulous over (not to mention about a dozen other shades)
I’d wear collage over a great black cream!! It would look modern and chic- love it!!
I didn’t notice the white glitter until it was on your nails either. This looks like a fun New Year’s Eve topcoat, maybe over black or a very dark red.
Alexis´s last post…The perfect Surprise Gift: A manicure
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway!
I would use it on red w/green accent for Christmas!!
I would wear this with a gradient nail
This would be really fun layered with some other glitters.
The Lacquered Lady´s last post…Holiday Gift Guide: For Your Mother-in-Law (a.k.a. Can’t Go Wrong Gifts!)
I would wear it with a dark color so the holo would really pop!
I think this would look great over a dark blue! I love the bar glitter.
I like this but those white chunks don’t really seem to fit. That being said I would still use it:)
Hi! I think I would wear Collage on top of a rich burgundy, with a coat of very sheer color on top (maybe Essie’s Cherry Pop)
Oh I just love this! What a unique mix of glitter. I also love how the glitter has a holo look. I would wear this over black! Maybe China Glazes Stone Cold, I love using black and glitter together! Keeping my fingers crossed!
I would wear it over black or a dark color like navy to highlight the contrast between the whie glitter and the dark polish. Another option would be to wear it that way with a jelly painted over it to create a color tint over the white glitter. A softer approach would be to wear it over a dove gray.
Hmmm… I would wear it over China Glazes’ Blue Bells Ring, a blue foil.

This would be absolutely stunning over OPI Not Like the Movies (from the Katy Perry collection). Seche is the absolute best top coat on the market, can’t ever be without it
That is so pretty! I’d love to wear it over my latest love… who’s name I always get wrong… the glittery one from the latest Essie collection. Something or other about cozy. Not tea cozy though I’d definitely buy that!
Love a good glitter top coat! I would wear this over a black creme.

I would wear Collage over a powder blue! I think it would look so pretty like that!
Thanks for the awesome glittery giveaway! <3
I’d rock Collage over purples – bright (Illamasqua Jo’Mina), light (Essie Lilacism), vibrant (Color Club Disco Dress), and dark (Zoya Savita). It’s so cool!!! Though the large white pieces do seem a bit out of place…but still could be fun…maybe. XD Still really excited to try this though! It’s so twinkly!
I would wear it for the holidays!
I love that it’s a Seche! I never use another top coat. I would wear it over RBL Orbitus Non Sufficit and finally have a tinsely festive Christmas mani. And then over Manglaze F off and Dye for a smashing New Years. Love it!
I would wear it over a dark inky blue!
I would wear Collage over black polish
I so would wear this with a red creme polish or maybe a magenta.
I think I would do a silver or gray base coat, then maybe matte tc?
I’d use a super metallic silver polish underneath, would look awesome!
I’d wear Collage over a dark vampy green! Seems like it would be fun!

Annick´s last post…LUSH soaps! Mr. Punch, Snow Globe and Snowcake review!

I’d probably wear it over a dark blue, to try and get a bit of a night sky effect.
I think I would wear Collage over Borghese Capriccio Blue. Thanks for the giveaway!
This would be so much fun to play with. I’d put it over all kinds of colors: black creme, an indigo blue, a deep purple, teal, white, lilac, hot pink, emerald green…
I would use Collage over China Glaze’s Water You Waiting For… I think the glitter looks so pretty and I love the holo oat too!
Collage would be beautiful over my dark blue nail polish and perfect for the holidays. Thanks!
Cynthia.Richardson@azbar.org
I would definitely use this for a New Year’s Eve manicure. Collage over a black or a night out color would be AMAZING!
Over a black nail polish
i would wear it over a red cream. Thanks for the great giveaway!!
I love glitter polishes! I am def going to my beauty supply and see if I can find this polish from Seche. I haven’t seen any of the polishes out here yet, but with all the other holiday collections hitting the shelves I hadn’t really been looking either. I would layer this over Essie Butler Please for my first mani with it.
I would try it over a purple first and then experiment with sandwiching it between layers of jelly polish.
Cute glitter! I’d love it over a rich blue, like Revlon Royal!
I would wear Collage over a light pink polish or a black polish!
I would wear it over black for NYE or over a maroon or oxblood polish for a new take on a vampy look!
I would like to wear this polish on New Years Eve to start the New Year off the right foot:)
