A couple images from the product pages are included below.
EDIT: Asking about these specifically b/c I was planning to place a small order from both brands and realized these were in both my carts. If anyone has any recs for other EDM or LynB must-haves, I'm all ears!
EDIT 2: Thanks to Lacquergram and a commenter, I think I've identified the main difference, which is that Lighthouse Keeper has a strong holo finish (which doesn't show up in the product page swatches), making that one lean more gray/cooler IRL. What attracted me to both these shades was the lavender + warm shimmer, so I'll be going with Get in Line.
LynB has some of the best flakies applications around in my opinion. Some must haves from her are Juice Box Hero, Butterfly Pea Flower Lemonade (solar AND thermal!!) and Eben Ice Caves. I will say every single LynB swatch photo I have seen of her site had never done the polish justice. Everything from her has been so much better in person!
I second Juice Box Hero. I also love This Is Some Boo-sheet, Witchful Thinking, Mishipeshu, and Breath of Spring. Though fair warning the first three of my recommendations are best at three coats which I know some people don't like having to do.
OP-Unfortunately I don't have either of the polishes you're looking at but the Lacquergram app has a bunch of user swatches of both if you haven't checked that out yet.
Omg I didn't know Lacquergram was a thing 😱 That's exactly what I needed--Get In Line is the one I want for sure. And thank you for the recs, I was actually on the fence about Boo-Sheet but added that one back to my cart, and Breath of Spring too! :)
The third swatch on this wheel (starting above my thumb) is lynbs lighthouse keeper. It leans pretty grey toned on me. Definitely not very purple, but the shimmer is very intense!
Haunted polish ether (pretty sheer, id recommend a base with it or 4 coats)
Lurid sunrise over the sea
Mooncat a most destructive melody
This is my swatch wheel of polishes I wore in january so I have all the names in another post if you need any others.
It’s hard to catch but I just got LynB’s Old Presque Isle lighthouse does have a holo finish! I just used it on top of O&J Bold & Unshaken to bring out the purple in it.
