Polish Addict Nail Color – Pretty Zombie

0

Today I have another shade from Polish Addict Nail Color for you. This is Pretty Zombie and trust me, you want to scroll all the way down to see all the photos of this one ;)

Pretty Zombie is a lovely mix of glitter on a peachy pink crelly/jelly base. I love the base color. It’s just perfect for summer and perfect for my skintone!

This is three thin coats of Pretty Zombie with Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

 

This applied perfectly and smoothly. Base color wasn’t streaky or balding at all and the glitter lays nice and flat. Great quality on this one too!

And here’s the coolest part….

 

 

IT GLOWS IN THE DARK! :D How freakin’ awesome does that look!?

Polish Addict Nail Color is available at their own webstore and us international ladies can do our shopping at Mei Mei’s Signatures. You can also follow them at Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Fandom Cosmetics – This is My Design

4

Today I have another new to me brand Fandom Cosmetics polish This is My Design from the “Nothing Here is Vegetarian” collection inspired by Hannibal. Fandom Cosmetics lives up to it’s name and has a lot of cool collections based on awesome TV-shows, movies, etc. Or what do you say about Supernatural inspired collection and nail polish called “Dean’s Baby”? Cos, I mean, mmmmmm, Dean….. err, where was I? Oh yeah, nail polish….

This is My Design is a gorgeous red glitter mix with a scattered holographic effect. The base is orange-y, rusty red and the holo effect is quite strong. This is amazing in sunlight and the sparkling is just blinding. Perfect color for stunning fall nails!

For this manicure I used three thin coats of Fandom Cosmetics This is My Design with Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

This is My Design has a thick-ish gel like formula and it applies quite nicely. This can be opaque on it’s own and will be perfect layered over a base color too. If you build this up to be opaque on it’s own I recommend very thin coats and let each coat dry well before applying the next. That way you get a nice and smooth result. This one is definitely worth the three coats. It looks like hot lava with rainbow sparkle when it’s built up to be opaque on it’s own. Just stunning!

Fandom Cosmetics polishes can be bought from their webstore, they ship internationally too. You can also follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Polish Addict Nail Color – Beach Cabana

2

TGIF and I have just the polish to put you on that relaxed sunny summer weekend mood :D This is Polish Addict Nail Color indie brand’s Beach Cabana. A colorful blend of neon purple, neon pink and neon green glitter on a nude crelly base.

On this mani I used three thin coats of Beach Cabana, coat of Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Beach Cabana applies perfectly and the crelly base is smooth and even looking on the first coat. The great formula made it very easy to build up the sandwich effect with three coats.

This was my first experience with Polish Addict Nail Color and I’m very happy with the quality. Polish is beautiful, formula is perfect and application was flawless. Now I can’t wait to try the other colors sitting on my “to be swatched” shelf :D

Polish Addict Nail Color is available at their own webstore and us international ladies can do our shopping at Mei Mei’s Signatures. You can also follow them at Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Crazy Polish Lady – Sand in My Flip-flops

7

Here’s Sand in My Flip-flops, another shade from the new limited edition Summer Is Up collection by Crazy Polish Lady. The glitter-mix on this is quite similar to the one on Yellow Polka Dot Bikini and the base is a lovely neutral sand-y beige. I love the combination of colorful glitter and soft, nude crelly base. This is a very fun looking polish without being too in your face :)

This is two coats with G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

The formula is absolutely fabulous. Application is smooth, flawless and opaque in just two coats. Glitter applies evenly and no fishing needed. Perfect! If you haven’t tried any of Sophie’s polishes yet, you’re missing out! Each and every one I have tried have been nothing short of excellent!

Crazy Polish Lady lives in Portugal and she ships internationally. She doesn’t have her own store yet but you can message her on her Facebook page or email her carvalho.sophie(@)gmail.com and place an order. Some of her polishes are now also available at Mei Mei’s Signatures.

Lynnderella – Opal Intuition

6

Happy Saturday! I hope everyone’s having a great weekend. Today I have another Lynnderella review for you. This is Opal Intuition from the Talismans and Birthstones collection. This has a lot of iridescent glitter and holographic micro-glitter in a sheer shimmer base. The base is blue toned. This can be layered on any basecolor you want to. I tested this over baby blue and black cremes. So let’s see what it looks like.

This is two coats of Color Club Take Me To Your Chateau, two coats of Opal Intuition and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

And here is a coat of Color Club Where’s The Soiree?, two coats of Opal Intuition and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Opal Intuition has a good, a bit gel like formula that applies well. As you can see, two different base colors make it look like two completely different polishes. Personally I prefer this over the black base. It really glows and black brings out the beautiful blue shimmer. Either way this is a real beauty!

Lynnderella polishes are available to European customers at Norway Nails. You can use the code “POLISHAHOLIC” to get -10% off of any purchase. Norway Nails offers a wide range of gorgeous indies and other polish brands. You can also follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

Jindie Nails – 1 Year Anniversary Duo

0

Jindie Nails had their first anniversary on July 16th. To celebrate the occasion Jen created the Anniversary Duo that is nothing short of awesome. I know I always say this BUT I absolutely love these polishes :D

Let’s start with the blue one, Anniversary Seaquins. This has an amazing dusty, smoky blue base packed with shimmer and all kinds of glitter. Application was just perfect. No issues at all. To my surprise this was almost opaque on two coats. I did apply the third one though. The base color is just beautiful and will be great for fall and winter too. This is the kind of the shade you can wear a year round.

This is three thin coats of polish and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Gorgeous, right?

Aaaand then there is the magnificent Purple Universary. I LOVE circle glitter and jellies so you can imagine my joy when I saw the first bottle shots not to mention actually holding the bottle. This is so amazing! The deep purple, true jelly base and all that circular glitter. Aaaahh! This is definitely on the top three of the most beautiful polishes I own. This is like universe on your nails.

The application on this was also perfect. No problems and all the glitter came out of the bottle easily, no fishing needed. This is three coats and it looks gorgeous but for the next time I wear this I have an application game plan ;) I’ll do first coat without any glitter, second with glitter, thin third coat without again and then the last one with glitter. That’ll help me build even more depth to this stunning beauty :)

So this is three coats of Purple Universary with Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

Crazy Polish Lady – Yellow Polka Dot Bikini

4

Today I have a new Crazy Polish Lady shade for you from her limited edition Summer is Up collection. This is Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, a yellow crelly with multicolored glitter. The yellow shade is nice and smooth looking. This is kinda like banana ice cream with rainbow sprinkles. Pretty and sweet :D

This is three thin coats of Yellow Polka Dot Bikini with G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Application was as perfect as it has been with all the Crazy Polish Lady polishes I have tried. For a yellow polish application was just great, no dragging or balding. The result is smooth enough that there was really no need for Glitter Food. I used three coats but two will be enough for shorter nails. Great shade for summer and springtime :)

Crazy Polish Lady lives in Portugal and she ships internationally. She doesn’t have her own store yet but you can message her on her Facebook page or email her carvalho.sophie(@)gmail.com and place an order. Some of her polishes are now also available at Mei Mei’s Signatures.

Lynnderella – Amethyst Devotion

0

Late Sunday post for me, but I’m here now with an awesome glitter polish to show you. This is Lynnderella Amethyst Devotion from the Talismans and Birthstones collection. Amazing sheer base polish with a ton of purple glitter along with some red and pink. This can be layered over a lot of different base colors and this time I decided to use pink-ish purple creme. I also intend to do a gradient mani over a black base as soon as possible. This one is so sparkly and absolutely stunning IRL.

In this mani I used two coats of OPI Ate Berries in the Canaries, one coat of Amethyst Devotion (plus some dabbing here and there) with a generous coat of G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Amethyst Devotion applies well and cos it’s so packed with glitter one coat is enough. Two coats would probably be almost opaque. This is the kind of polish that is very hard to capture accurately. It’s complex and there’s so much shiny glitter and sparkles. You really need to see this in real life to truly appreciate it.

Lynnderella polishes are available to European customers at Norway Nails. You can use the code “POLISHAHOLIC” to get -10% off of any purchase. Norway Nails offers a wide range of gorgeous indies and other polish brands. You can also follow them on Facebook and Twitter.

Femme Fatale – Noble Garden

2

Hello lovelies! Today I have another Femme Fatale polish to show you. As many of you know I’m a sucker for green nail polish so this was a real treat for me. Noble Garden has a lot of sparkling green glitter in different shapes and sizes along with some little pops of color like pink and orange. Very beautiful combination of glitter.

I decided to layer this over a dark green jelly, NARS Zulu. This is two coats of Noble Garden over Zulu, a coat of Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

 

Noble Garden applied very nicely and just one coat resulted in a good amount of glitter on my nails. But again I was greedy for bling and added another coat :P IMO there’s never enough green glitters and this one is a real gem :)

Femme Fatale polishes and cosmetics can be bought from their website if you live in Australia. International customers can find Femme Fatale polishes from Llarowe, Harlow & Co, Norway Nails, Shoppe Ecclecticco and Ledouxnuage.

You can also follow Femme Fatale on social media: Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Lynnderella – S.W.A.K.

0

Here’s the second one of my new Lynnderella polishes. This is S.W.A.K. from the 2013 Groundhog Day collection. This beauty has a ton of different kinds of glitter on a sheer base, including hearts and stars. The sheer base is packed with pink/fuchsia shimmer and it just glows. This is a perfect Valentine’s Day or a romantic date polish.

This is two coats of OPI Innie Minnie Mightie Bow, two thin coats of S.W.A.K., a coat of Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.

S.W.A.K. applies well and one coat wouldn’t really even need Glitter Food to smooth it. But I’m a glitter addict so of course I had to add another coat and the result was a little chunky. This is a perfect blend of glitter and you can layer this over a lot of different base colors. I used a red shimmer base but also a bright red jelly would look absolutely gorgeous with this one.
