Jindie Nails – Phone, Keys, Polish, Check! and The Blue That Holds Us Together

10

Today I have two awesome polishes by Jindie Nails. These are sister polishes Phone, Keys, Polish, Check! and The Blue That Holds Us Together.

These are really vibrant colored jelly polishes packed with glitter, microglitter, holographic glitter, and shimmer. Absolutely stunning!!!

Phone, Keys, Polish, Check! is a one coater! One generous coat was enough for an opaque result. Application was excellent and dry time was quick. This dries a little rough so I applied two coats of top coat to get a smoother result.

This is one coat of Essie Beam Me, a coat of  Phone, Keys, Polish, Check! and two coats of HK Girl top coat.

 

The Blue That Holds Us Together had an equally excellent formula and application. Though for this I applied two thinner coats. This was also a bit top coat hungry so again I applied two coats of top coat.

This is a coat of Essie Beam Me, two coats of The Blue That Holds Us Together and two coats of HK Girl.

 

Aaaahhh!! I’m so in love with these! They are even more vibrant and sparkling in real life!

Holiday nails for the last time this year :D

12

This is the manicure I actually had on for Christmas. The gorgeous green glitter is Jindie Nails A Surprise Inside. This is two coats alone on Glisten & Glow Stuck On Blu and topped with two coats of HK Girl.

Ring finger nail has a tree made with little triangle shape DIY decals I cut out of a watermarble sheet I left drying in the water. I placed some glitter pieces from A Surprise Inside on the tree and added the snow using white acrylic paint. The nail art was inspired by mymaynails and Mucking Fusser in IG.

Jindie Nails – Through the Eyes of a Child

4

Here’s a quick post of a lovely new Jindie Nails polish, Through The Eyes of a Child. This works perfectly as a glitter topper and one coat is plenty enough. Since there’s so much going on in this polish I chose to wear it alone on a nude base. There’s an insane amount of different kind of glitter on a shimmer-y clear base in this bottle :D Even hearts and candy canes! The shimmery base made it look very beautiful when worn alone but I couldn’t quite capture on the photos all the sparkle it had.

Glitter comes out of the bottle pretty easy but I still recommend turning the bottle upside down for a bit before application. The candy canes take a bit of fishing but everything else comes out quite nice. Application was good considering how packed with glitter this polish is. If you use this as a glitter topper just one coat is enough and normal application will do. If you wear it alone like I did here you’ll need two coats and a little bit of dabbing the glitter here and there. I didn’t experience any difficulties with this polish and I love how it just screams Christmas :D

 

 

 

For this manicure I used Essie Beam Me, Essie Sugar Daddy, two coats of Through The Eyes of a Child and two coats of HK Girl top coat.

Delush Polish – Bitchcraft

18

This beauty is Delush Polish Bitchcraft from the Scream Supreme collection. Every polish on this collection is just stunning and unfortunately I couldn’t afford to buy all of them. I do have three to show you though and this is the first one of those three, Bitchcraft.

This is a gorgeous black jelly glitterbomb. I turned the bottle upside down before application to help the largest dots to come out easier. Cos my nails are quite curvy I did move the biggest glitter pieces to the spots were they laid flat. Other than that no glitter placement was needed. Very good formula that was easy and even to apply and dried quickly. This can be worn alone too but I decided to layer it over a black creme to really make the pink glitters pop.

For this manicure I used a coat of Sally Hansen Nail Rehab, a coat of Glisten & Glow Stuck On Blu!, a coat of Essie Licorice, two coats of Bitchcraft and two coats of HK Girl top coat to smooth out the glitters.

Matching Nails & Makeup – Delush Polish Time To Kill

20

Today I’m trying something that is new to my blog. I take a polish/manicure and match my makeup with it to show you guys. Most of these looks are meant to be your average every day look. Something I can wear when I walk out the door to go shopping or just go to a grocery store. I like to play with colors too so there is going to be everything from nude makeup to a smokey eye. Needless to say, I have a lot of makeup and nail polish to match so I shouldn’t run out of material anytime soon :D It’s just a matter of having the time to do my makeup and take photos too. So when ever I have time to do this, you’ll see the results.

So my choice for today’s makeup look was based on Delush Polish Time To Kill from the Slice Of Life Collection. This is a stunning plum jelly that can be worn on it’s own or over a base color. The formula is flawless. It applies nice and thin. Glitters spread evenly without having to place or dab them on. Dry time is also pretty fast. It’s just perfect!

For this manicure I used a coat of Sally Hansen Nail Rehab treatment, a coat of Glisten & Glow Stuck On Blu! base coat, a coat of Essie Sugar Daddy, two coats of Time To Kill and HK Girl top coat. I also added a matte top coat (This matte top coat is from Born Pretty Store and I’ll have a review coming up for it later on. You can use the code NZL91 for -10% off your order).

 

 

Gorgeous! Right?

So it was easy to create a makeup look for this manicure. I used purple, plum and gold eyeshadows this time but orange would also go great with this if you want a bolder, more colorful look that really makes blue eye color pop. For the eye makeup I used Sleek Make Up Vintage Romance palette. I really like this  palette. The colors are perfect for fall and it’s also good quality for an affordable price. I really need to get more of these :)

 

For this look I used gold Meet in Madrid and the three purple shades from the left side of the bottom row. These look quite shiny on the lid so I tried not to blend the shadows too high up. I have a lot of area to cover on my lids and if I’m not careful the makeup can end up making me look like a clown.I added false lashes cos the last pregnancy totally messed up my lashes and I have like half of them left and they are much shorter than usual. Hopefully they’ll return to normal soon enough. Till then I’ll be faking it ;)
 This look is pretty subtle and natural with a hint of color on the eyes. Good every day look that could  easily be turned into a darker nighttime look by adding dark eyeliner and creamy eyeshadow as a base to make the eyeshadows more visible.

I hope you liked this post and the idea of matching nails with makeup. I really enjoyed doing a makeup post. It’s been so long since the last one. This was fun for me at least :D

Dollish Polish Got Snow Cones? and Murky Dismal

6

It’s about time I show you some of the swatch photos I took during the summer and never posted here on my blog. So let’s start it off with two Dollish Polish pretties. On these photos I still have some gel left on my nails and they are longer than my nails are at the moment.

 

Got Snow Cones? (Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu! base coat, two coats of Got Snow Cones? and two coats of HK Girl top coat).

Application is easy when you use a very light hand to prevent the glitter pieces from dragging bald spots on the white base. It also helps to let the first coat dry well before applying the second one. I placed some of the glitters to get a more even looking result. This is such a cute and fresh looking polish!

 

 

Murky Dismal (Glisten & Glow Stuck on Blu! base coat, three thin coats of Murky Dismal and a coats of HK Girl top coat).

This has a very good formula and application is really easy. I used three thin coats to achieve a good sandwich effect.

Some Dollish Polish pretties

4

Here’s some Dollish Polish swatches that I’ve been sitting on for a while now. I absolutely love Dollish Polish polishes and lately I’ve been making my collection bigger a couple of polishes at a time :)

 

EXPECTO PATRONUM

 

“This is a milky white crelly polish with a hint of Mint Green, has iridescent flakies and varying size Teal Green holographic glitters for a magically enchanting manicure worthy of Hogwarts!”
 
This polish is like a breath of fresh air! I love the simple color combination and quality on this. Application was smooth and easy. No need to fish or place the glitters. This is two normal coats and HK Girl top coat.
PURPLE NURPLES
 
“Inspired by the Cartoon Network’s Chowder, this neon purple jelly has tons of glitters, ranging from hexagons, squares, and circles, all in varying shades of periwinkle, purples, pinks, magenta, and blue/green iridescent glitters.”
 
This awesome jelly is so juicy and squishy! Such a vibrant purple glitter bomb, a jelly polish at it’s most perfect form! The formula is quite sheer so if you’re not a fan of multiple coats of jelly goodness like I am I suggest you layer this on top of a creme polish. The application is flawless and you can apply this so thin that four coats seen on the photos really weren’t a problem at all. Just created amazing depth and squishy-ness (yes, that must be a real word :P). This is four very thin coats and HK Girl top coat. (This was a hard one to photograph accurately so I did adjust the colors on the photos to make the polish look more like it does in real life).
ROCKIN’ RAINBOW SHERBET
“A pale pink crelly, jammed with tiny white squares, white stars, and a mix of neon pink, green, purple and orange hexagons and squares.”
This one has such a delicious color combination, perfect for summer! One of those cheerful fun polishes that put you in a good mood :) Application was good and this was easy to apply thinly so you can layer it for a nice sandwich effect. I suggest you turn the bottle upside down before application to help get the stars out of the bottle. This is three thin coats and HK Girl top coat.

Dollish Polish – Things Are Looking Very GRIMM

6

It’s a dark and rainy Sunday here in Finland so this is a perfect polish to show you today ;) Dollish Polish Things Are Looking Very GRIMM is inspired by the TV show Grimm. If you haven’t watched that show maybe you should cos … ummm … well cos Detective Nick Burkhardt is pretty easy on your eyes (and it’s a good show) :P

Things Are Looking Very GRIMM “blackened forest green jelly is loaded with varying shaped glitter, all in shades of green giving it a very mythical and forest like feel. It’s a perfect fit for the chaotic life of Detective Nick Burkhardt and his endless hunt for Wesen!”

Formula is good and easy to apply. Since this is a jelly it takes at least 3 coats for good result but you can always layer this over black or dark green polish too. I love the depth that comes with multiple coats so I hardly ever layer polishes like this over another color. This one is definitely worth the three coats. Just wow!! Amazing glow and depth! Totally as drool worthy as Detective Burkhardt is ;)

On this manicure I used three thin coats of Things Are Looking Very GRIMM with HK Girl top coat. Remember to turn the bottle upside down for a bit before application. That will help getting the bigger glitter pieces out easier.

Dollish Polish – It’s So Fluffy, I’m Gonna Die!

8

Dollish Polish polishes recently arrived to a Finnish webstore CesarsShop.fi and I received a few polishes to review too. Today I’ll show you the supercute It’s So Fluffy, I’m Gonna Die!

” A very pale pink crelly, loaded with tons of pink glass flecks and also has circles, hexagons and squares of every size and pink shade imaginable! This shades is so fluffy, you’ll wanna squish it to death!”

The formula on this was just perfect, smooth, glossy and self leveling. I LOVE this! When I swatched this I didn’t even want to take it off cos it was so cute and pretty! For the photos I applied three thin coats of It’s So Fluffy, I’m Gonna Die! and HK Girl top coat.

Jindie Nails – Just Say Glow

6

Hello lovelies! It’s already Tuesday again. Time just goes way too fast! I meant to get this post up a couple of days ago but it was such lovely weather during the weekend I just had to work on the yard as much as I could :) I have so much going on right now and things that need to get done asap. Without going to details I won’t be doing much yard work later this summer so I gotta get a lot of things done now :)

So I might be a couple of days behind on my schedule but here we go. This is another polish from the upcoming Jindie Nails Recover Me collection, Just Say Glow. I have previously shown you K.I.S.S. and the swatches of the rest of the collection can be found from Jindie Nails FB and IG (links at the end of the post).

Just Say Glow is “a semi-sheer gold toned rose pink polish with gold and copper shimmer and hexagons.  This one is pretty on its own and can be opaque in about 3 coats.  For a more subtle look, you can layer this over many colors for a pretty, golden shimmer and gold glitter/shimmer topper.”


I applied three coats of Just Say Glow alone. This looks amazing starting from the first coat. If you’d like to just have gorgeous shimmer and some glitters on your nails and don’t mind clearly visible nail line then one coat could be great for you. I think I’ll be wearing this with just one coat this summer. The look was so fresh and delicate that way. Three coats give you more opaque and glowing result. Again I like the glow and depth that comes with applying multiple coats of polish like this so I chose not to layer this over a creme. However I did test it that way too and it looked amazing over OPI Don’t Bossa Nova Me Around (from the Brazil collection).

Formula and application were flawless. For this manicure I used three coats of Just Say Glow and a coat of HK Girl top coat.

This is available right now at jindienails.com. International customers can find an authorized distributor here. You can also check out Jindie Nails social media sites on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for more swatches and latest news of amazing upcoming polishes and restocks!
