Nail Mail! Polish Addict Nail Color ♥

Hello Everyone!!

I've been away from here for a little bit due to so much stuff I had to get done and lots of working.

Today I'm bringing you an awesome package from Polish Addict I received.
I was one of the first 20 people to place an Order at the release of the Beachy Keen collection, the goodies I received came separately from the polishes, so I wanted to wait to have all the times swatched to write the post.

Laura surprised me with even more extra goodies! so I got lots of things to review today!

The first polish I bought was Summer Lovin'


Summer Lovin' is a white crelly base packed with tons of small and medium sized glitters.
The application of this polish was a heaven sent miracle, I didn't have to fish or dab for my glitters everything applied beautifully and the formula was awesome as well.



In this polish we can find lots of hexagonal neon green glitters as well as green, neon green and neon pink squares. there's also some very small hexagonal neon pink and holographic glitter. You can also find tiny neon pink dots and some very small round green glitter.



I loved the color combination Laura picked for this polish. Definitely will be loving this one all summer long!

The next color I got was Beachy Keen, my favorite out of the whole collection, a beautiful and definitely a unique colored polish.


Beachy Keen is a greyish nude crelly base with different pastel colored glitters.



The application of this polish was just as good as Summer Lovin' but the formula was a little thicker, which made the glitter placement easier.



For the glitters we have lots of dark and light yellow hexagonal glitters,  we have small lilac, purple and dark but pastel pink hexagonal glitters.


Now I'm going to show you guys the goodies Laura sent me. ♥


In the cute little bag there was an awesome nail file, a black striping tape which I have like 20 colors of striping tape yet I needed black, so thanks girl you hit the spot!. Also there was some cute small nail fimos, a mini polish, mini cuticle oil, a hand scrub and cuticle cream.


Then she generously added a full size polish and two minis. ♥



The mini included in the bag goes by the name of May flowers.
May flowers is a lilac cream base with different glitters in it.


The formula of this polish was a little thin but the color built up to full opacity with three coats, so that wasn't a problem. The application was fine and this polish has a great amount of glitter so no fishing was required.


There's many shapes of glitter in this polish so i'll be naming only the ones I see clearly in the bottle.
You can find black squared and bar glitters, purple, pink, white, blue, red and holographic hexagonal glitter.  there's tons of other small glitters in it as well.


Nebula is another one of the minis I received and OMG I am so excited about this one. I saw it on the page before and I really wanted it so I'm happy about this one the most!


Nebula is a dark plum holographic polish. I have a special love for my holographic babies and I'm really glad Nebula is joining my collection.


Under sunlight this polish is bright and the holographic effect is pretty strong. In the shade is a dark shimmery beautiful plum.

The swatches are two coats with SV top coat.

The next one is Milky Way. This polish is a white base glitter bomb.


The formula of the polish is kind of like May flowers, thin, but reached opacity easily. You don't end up with thick and chubby looking nails. The glitters in it stick out a little bit, but with just one coat of top coat it was all solved.

I'll name the glitters that I see from the bottle as well since there's many types of it.


You can find yellow, grey, purple, red and holographic squared glitters as well as green and orange hexagonal glitters and many other small shapes of glitters.


The full size polish she sent me is Spring Equinox. This is a cranberry jelly base with iridescent glitters.



This polish was very easy to apply and the formula was amazing. I didn't have to fish for the glitters and everything was spread out evenly.


For the glitters we can find green,yellow and lime green iridescent glitters.


The cuticle oil she sent me was the Lemon Verbena one, I already have the Pink Sugar cuticle oil and it smells amazing so I was excited to smell this one it smells fresh and super lemony. I totally loved it!


The hand scrub had a really clean scent to it and it left my hands feeling very soft!
The cuticle cream was vanilla scented and I loved the smell. I like the fact that the hand scrub has almost no scent to it so it doesn't mix with the scent of the cuticle cream if I were to apply it right after.



I loved all the stuff I got and thanks to Laura again for all the extra goodies and having such an awesome costumer service!

everyone have a great day and thanks as always for reading ♥

Emily de Molly Swatches ♥

Good morning everyone!

 Hope you guys are having a great week! It's finally Friday but a long day of work is ahead of me haha.
So I decided to wake up a little earlier to write the post because I'll probably be too tired tonight lol.

 Alright getting to the polish talk, I recently purchased two Emily de Molly polishes I've been dying for.
Emily de Molly is a independent Australian seller. Her polishes can be purchased through Llarowe or her Etsy page if you are not from the US.

 The first polish I'll be reviewing is the almost impossible to photograph, Black Forrest.
Black Forrest is a sheer black jelly base packed with green hexagonal glitters. Now, it was almost impossible for me to capture the beauty of this polish. You can't really see all the green glitters on the picture, but this polish is honestly breath taking IRL.


 The formula of this polish is great and the application was easy. I didn't have to dab this polish on, since there is just so much glitter in it. No fishing was required, obviously.


 Now on to the second one, A Certain Shade of Green.
On the llarowe page there is a beautiful picture of this polish, when I opened my package and put this polish on the color wasn't really the certain shade I was expecting, but this polish is awesome and I do love the color it is!


 A certain shade of green is a green crelly (cream/jelly) base with silver,pastel green and lavender glitters.


The application and formula were great as well. I love Emily de Molly polishes and I am still dying to have The Fifth Element, oh god I will be so happy the day I finally own it! haha.

Oh yeah, as you guys can see I changed my watermark lol. I'm liking this font a little better so I think I'm sticking to it.
Okay guys that was it for now, I hope you guys liked these polishes and I totally recommend you all to grab some of these at Llarowe.

Love you all, and as always thanks for reading♥

Polish Addict-Pretty in Pastels.


Hello Everyone!

Today I'll be reviewing my most recent purchase from Polish Addict by Laura Sanchez!
This beautiful polish goes by the name of Pretty in Pastels and it's definitely a MUSt have for the spring♥


(The polish i'm holding is not Pretty in Pastels)


Pretty in pastels is a light mint green crelly with different kinds of pastel glitter.


 This polish was quite sheer, in the picture I'm wearing 4 coats with no undies. I totally adore the color base and the end result. I love how I can use this polish over different blue & mint colors.





 Even with this polish being so sheer the final result isn't a bulky fat nail. I love it when I can apply my indies just like regular polish and not have to worry about having to smooth surfaces out. 
The glitter in this polish spreads out on the nail very evenly making the application very smooth.




Now onto the glitters, we have pastel baby blue matte hexagonal glitters, purple big hex glitters,micro pastel baby blue glitters and some green hexagonal glitters.

You guys can purchase this polish at http://www.shoppolishaddict.bigcartel.com/
but her shop will be closed for the next two days.
I should be having two more polish addict polishes to be added to my collection and swatched here, so if you like what you see don't forget to follow :)

 :Love you all! Goodnight<33

Southern Belle is a white crelly base with tons of different kinds of glitters.

 
 Flash On

The glitters make the white base look a little lilac-ish to me. I was amazed with how great the formula was.
The application was also amazing and no fishing was required, I completely love polishes like that, in my book it gives them an automatic +10 ;).


Shade

Okay now i'm going to talk about the glitters:
This polish is fully packed with orange,blue,white,silver and light blue holographic hex glitters. We also have violet triangles that are also holographic,we have some holo blue diamond shaped glitter,as well as the micro holographic glitter,some medium sized squares and bar glitter!!

Emily de molly ~ Dark Crystal.

Hey everyone!

so last week I was browsing to the my favorite indie polish website and found this amazing sooo freaking awesome polish there.
It goes by the name of Dark Crystal and it's a is a 3 free (Toluene, Formaldehyde and DBP) nail polish.


This beautiful polish is a black base jelly packed with silver micro holographic glitter.
This is not a linear holo polish.



The application was great opaque in 3 coats!
The formula was awesome, I really love how the glitter is scattered everywhere
I only own two Emily de Molly polishes this one and Warrior Princess which I should be reviewing in a couple of days.





I apologize for not having a sun shot of this, its night time were I live and I was just really excited to post about this! but i'll be adding a picture I got from Llarowe the site I get my Emily de Molly polishes and the link will take you directly to this exact polish which they actual have on sale right now for 11.00 USD.
All credits for the picture go to Emily de Molly

I totally adore this polish and will definitely be wearing it a lot!!

Thanks for reading once again <3333
xo.





China Glaze - Atlantis

This is a polish from the "Specialty Collection" glitters from China Glaze, this polish is honestly breath taking.

Atlantis is a medium blue/teal/aqua jelly base with tons of holographic glitter.
The more coats you apply the bluer the color will appear.


This polish will feel kind of gritty if you don't apply top coat on, however in the pictures I didn't because I was only leaving the polish on while I took the pictures for this post.
Whenever I wear this baby for a while i'll definitely be putting a thick gel top coat.


I took a blurry picture so you guys could see just how strong this holo effect is.
This polish is one of my favorites now! I wish removing glitter wasn't such a hassle or I would wear this all the time.

I apologize for this being the macro shot of the bottle and not the actual nail I totally forgot about it, and remember when I had already taken the polish off. i hope you guys can bear with me.
The application for this polish was easy this is a very sheer jelly with one coat so I used three for the pictures.
Like i mentioned before the more coats the darker or bluer the polish is going to look like.

I wanted to take a sun shot of this polish but today wasn't very sunny outside so i'm just using inside artificial light for it.
I hope you guys enjoyed this post, and if you're wondering were I got this color from because i've never seen it in stores, I got it from ebay for a cheap 7 bucks :D

I'll catch you guys later, love;
Polish Junkie.

Jindie Nails - Candy Land Remix.*

hello there readersđź’‹
hope you all are having a great day so far, today we will be reviewing my most recent purchase. It's Jindie Nails' candy land remix.




Candy Land remix is a crelly polish in a sheer white base and lots of fun glitter!



I have two coats of white on by Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear as a base, I found the formula to be a little runnier than I expected, I shook the bottle a little to try to get the glitters distributed but could barely get any, lots of fishing required but there's a lot of micro glitter in it and it looks pretty by itself as well so I didn't really mind it. It took me three coats of candy land remix to get this result.
But I think this is a super cute and fun polish and it's great overall.



Okay now lets get through the glitter talk ;)
I love the colors of the glitters in this polish. First it has pink,orange and blue neon micro glitters and we have medium sized hexagonal blue,orange,green,pink,purple and yellow glitter.
What I love about this polish and also other indies is that you will get a different look on each nail every time so your nails won't look like the same old boring manicure.

You can purchase Jindie Nail polishes at Llarowe or her Etsy shop.


On the next post ill be reviewing the new Color Club Halo Hues 2013 collection, here's a sneak peak.



I would love to hear suggestions about what polish should be reviewed next or any tutorials/nail art ideas.

Love, PolishJunkie.*
