think you’ve found a rainbow?
it’s just a cruel mirage. this black linear holographic lacquer shows arcs of color that shine in the light one moment, then disappear into darkness the next. CRUEL MIRAGE is always mysterious, always changing, and full of surprises.
CRUEL MIRAGE is a black linear holographic lacquer.
formerly known as FOCUS
note: holographic lacquers look best in the sunlight or under a direct light, where they reveal their full rainbow effect. in the shade or overcast conditions, the effect will be more muted (but still mesmerizing).

application: a real smooth operator. while this creamy lacquer may dry smooth on its own, we still recommend applying our MATTE MADE IN HELL or SPEED DEMON TOP COAT for a long-lasting finish.
storage: think of mooncat nail lacquers like vampires: they feel most at home in cool, dark places. store them accordingly to keep them looking and applying their best. lacquer exposed to too much heat or sunlight may change in color or consistency over time...and just have generally bad vibes.

Black beautiful holographic polish!
Love this holographic polish! It’s black but full of sparkle!

A great black linear
Lovely black linear, super holo and easy to work with

GORGEOUS
Holographics are some of my favorite polishes. I love how dark this one is and then in the light it's like BAM!! It's so pretty

One of my first Mooncats
I got this one a long with Stumped as my first Mooncat colors, this one is so lovely I already am down to half a bottle, I'll have to get more soon!

Sunlight
This polish did not turn out as dynamic as I had hoped. I think of a base of Emo would help. It’s pretty in sunlight.
