Funky Fingers, Voodoo
Yeah, I'm workin' through the Halloween-inspired swatches. Can you tell?
Anyway, Funky Fingers' Voodoo is a black creme with little irregular flakes of gold/olive green. This is two coats. No application problems except for slight cuticle drag on the second coat--be careful not to push the polish around.
In real life this polish looks almost.... wooden. Or like stones. The gold sparkle shows up like texture in the creme. One would think that it'd look like stars or something--but organic is definitely the idea that comes to mind. The next picture might showcase that pretty well:
I wouldn't even say that it looks true black from far off. The gold warms the color to a deep muddy brown, brings it highlights, flares and flashes in sunlight. I liked it a lot. Moody, brooding, dark, earthy... Voodoo is practical magic at its best.

Funky Fingers, Moonwalk
When I took these pictures, it was in the midst of tons of June Gloom unhappiness, but I'd figured that since school was mostly over and it was, therefore, summer vacation, the sun would give out eventually while I was taking these.
Nope.
That said, though, I -have- seen Moonwalk under direct sunlight and it is glorious. Here's a pic in flash, since that's about all I could manage:
Moonwalk is a deep, no-frills black interspersed with tons of holo and silver glitter. The effect is very striking, and very sparkly. I couldn't take my eyes off it, really, when the sun came out. My favorite part, however, has to be the fact that this lovely is actually one coat. The NOTD took two coats, however, cause I freaked out and wanted to be sure I didn't have any bald spots or anything, but the second coat was completely unnecessary. One smooth, quick to dry, easy to apply coat.
Mostly because these pictures are being largely uncooperative, let me show you some bottle love:
Nom.
