MAC Petite Nail Lacquer Dazzlesphere
You’ll find four miniature-sized polishes in MAC’s Petite Nail Lacquer Dazzlesphere ($25.50 for 4 x 0.09 fl. oz.), and the shades include: Much Adored (sheer white pink with pearl), Style Tip (soft pink nude), Dark Angel (goth romantic dark lilac), and Mistletoe (pale gold). Of these, Dark Angel is a repromote, but the other three are new. The set is limited edition, as are all of the other sets from the collection.
- Much Adored is a pale white gold with gold and pink shimmer. As noted in the description, it’s sheer, and I used two coats for swatches; you can still see plenty of visible nail line but there is a healthy dose of shimmer and shine. It’s a warmer sheer, so it helps warm up the natural nail color. It’s less opaque and has different colored shimmer compared to Chanel Pearl Drop. The shimmer in Much Adored looks coppery compared to Essie Kisses & Bisses, which looks pinker.
- Style Tip is a light-medium nude with a hint of pink and cream finish. I used two coats for opaque color. MAC Hangin’ Loose is warmer and more peach-based. Zoya Pandora is closer but has subtle shimmer.
- Dark Angel is a purple-berry cream. I used two coats for swatches, and it was nearly opaque. China Glaze Urban Night is in the same color family but much, much darker.
- Mistletoe is a tarnished gold with a green-tint with a metallic finish. Brush strokes are visible in the finish. I used two coats for opaque color. It looks just like MAC Immortal Gold.
Dark Angel was rather streaky on the first coat, and the second coat seemed to have a touch of streakiness, still. For such a dark cream, I would have expected a more trouble-free application, but it wasn’t bad–just average. Mistletoe was on the thicker side yet a little runny. It flows decently over the nail, and it doesn’t seem too gloppy, but it wasn’t perfect. It didn’t seem as bad as Immortal Gold, even though the two are very, very similar (and the timing is conicidental!). Much Adored and Style Tip didn’t have any application issues. I typically get a week of wear without chipping, just minor tip wear, with MAC’s lacquer formula.

Gosh, you’re busy! I check up here several times a day and there’s practically always a new review.
I know right?
The nudes are just awesome!
That first polish, Much Adored, is so beautiful! It’s sheer but I love the colourplay. It would look so sweet layered over top of Style Tip and Dark Angel <3
I love Much Adored, but it really looks like OPI Pearl of wisdom I already own.
Love all the colors except for Much Adored.
I like this.
Much Adored looks gorgeous. I love those kinds of polishes, they’re so pretty and delicate and wintery.
Style Tip looks like it’d be great for layering sheer polishes over it.
The colour of Dark Angel is very pretty, despite the unevenness.
Mistletoe looks amazing in the bottle, hopefully you could make it look amazing on the nail too.
Style Tip needs to get in my polish collection now. *A*
Style Tip looks so nice!
Kindness is the best accessory,
Rebecca
I’d probably almost never wear Much Adored, but I love the other colours so I’m definitely getting this set. Maybe I can use it for layering o something.
Dark Angel and Much Adored are amazing! ♥
I love Style Tip and Dark Angel! The color is very pretty.
NEED these!!
Is this set in-stores only? I can’t find it online.
November 10th – it’s stated in the FAQ.
oops, so sorry! thank you for responding anyway!
Style Tip is the only one that really stands out to me, but I love it. Need, now!
I just started treating myself to weekly manicures – they’re super cheap at the salon near me, and I get so frustrated doing my own nails I’d rather just pay! But Style Tip needs to be in my rotation immediately…or as soon as MAC opens Thursday!
Why don’t you paint your whole nail? It looks like they’re grown out like the roots you get when you don’t dye your hair. It looks awful!
These are *swatches* not a manicure – which means I’m doing these back-to-back. Removal is a lot easier and gentler on the cuticles and skin around the nail if you don’t paint all the way!
