Hello lovelies!

This post is long overdue. I promised I'd write it ages ago, but since I wanted to put a lot of work in it, I never found the time. It's about one of the absolute necessities when it comes to indie polishes: Glitter Food.

Incidental Twin - Polyjuice Potion

Hello lovelies!

Here is the last polish I received from Incidental Twin polish! It's inspired by my favourite book series EVER - Harry Potter - and called Polyjuice Potion. This potion turnes Harry and Ron into Crabbe and Goyle and leaves Hermoine with an accidental fur coat... Oops! Now, we know that the potion turn into a different colour depending on whose DNA you put into it, so this potion must contain a hair of someone really pretty and kind-hearted! I wonder whom Samantha, the creator, had in mind :)

Let It Glitter "Mistletoe"

Hello lovelies!

I meant to show this a while ago, but didn't get around to it, so here it is today! A gorgeous green holo glitter from Dutch 5-free indie polish brand Let It Glitter from the "All I want for Christmas is Everything!" collection. Suzanne sent me this pretty for review, so meet "Mistletoe":

Indie Polish Holiday Collection pt. 1

Hello lovelies!

Sorry for having been MIA for a few days, but I'm back with awesomeness! I was sent 9 (NINE!) polishes by Tanya from Indie Polish and here are the first three pretties! Let's start with "Sugar Plums", a pink crelly with little holo gold glitters and purple microglitter:

Incidental Twin "Full Moon on Friday"

Hi lovelies!

I present you a new-to-me indie: Incidental Twin Nail Polish! Today I will show you "Full Moon on Friday", inspired by the last full moon that happened on Friday the 13th, which is, as a full moon, enchantingly beautiful:

Now this is even more beautiful IRL than I was able to photograph! The metallic shimmer shifts from blue to purple and the silver hexes in all sizes, they sparkle like heavenly bodies. 

This is three thin coats with top coat. The biggest hexes require some fishing. I stamped a howling wolf on my middle finger and painted a silver moon, with glare. I also made a gradient background sky, with a bit of jelly purple polish.  The stamping plate I used is a new one from bornprettystore.com (10% discount with coupon code SXDQ10!), that I bought. It's so cool! 

Isn't this polish magical? Incidental Twin Nail polish can be purchased in her etsy shop, and don't forget to show her facebook, twitter and instagram some love ;)

Ms Sparkle Playtime Collection - Akira

Hello lovelies!

As promised, I present you "Akira", the second polish in this collection that Simone named after me <3 Click here to see "Lothwen" Akira is amazeballs, check it out:

"Akira" is a glitter topper with black and platinum leopard spots, yellow stars, neon green blacklight reactive hexes, purple micro glitter and big holo circles... It's an 80's party in a bottle and it's one of the most fun toppers I own, if not THE most fun!

I applied two coats of Akira over a white to purple gradient base. The black leopards did not require much fishing, the platinum ones however did, so weird! But that's a minor detail with a deliciously awesome payoff like this ;)

Ms. Sparkle "Lothwen" is part of the new "Playtime" collection and will be in the shop tonight!

What do you think of this polish and the leopard spot glitter in general? Do you like it better in a topper or in a crelly like "Lothwen"?

Ms. Sparkle Playtime Collection - Lothwen

Hello lovelies!

I'm over the moon with today's post; the wonderful Simone from Ms. Sparkle named two nail polishes after me! She wanted to thank me for helping her ^_^ I'm so honoured! I mean, you know something must be a big deal, for it to have nail polish named after it... and now I, ME! has nail polish named after ME! Wow...

So of course, I get to do the swatching honours, so today I present you... Lothwen!

"Lothwen" is a gorgeous white crelly with pink dots, purple shreds, black micro glitter and black LEOPARD SPOTS! Yes, that's right! It's all the rage in indie land and I got it! Whooooooooo!

This is three coats of "Lothwen". It applies nicely and no fishing is needed for the big leopard spots, although they do require some placing, which is normal. A smoothing top coat also comes in handy, so I used 1 coat of gel look top coat (Essence) and 1 coat of SV.

I love it, I love it, I love it! Thank you so much, Simone! It's the sweetest thing ever <3

Ms. Sparkle "Lothwen" is part of the new "Playtime" collection and will be in the shop tonight!

Indie Polish "Finding Dory"

Helloooooo lovelies!

I have a jam packed glitter mix to show you, that I bought from Indie Polish. Once I saw it, I knew I had to have it! (OK, yes, also because of the name... I mean come on, Dory! Can't wait 'till the movie is out!) It is a little like Floam, which I don't own, but I think it has the same (awesome!) idea: matte micro glitters in blue and yellow, mixed to the perfect, opaque-in-two-coats concoction that is is!

This is 2 coats without top coat. Application is easy and it dries really fast. Look and marvel:

Gorgeous, right?! So fun and bold :D Now I wondered what it would look like with top coat. So I applied a butt load of it (it is after all very hungry glitter) and some studs, that Tanya, the maker, had included for me (so sweet!):

Ain't that DA BOMB!?!? So I'm just going to leave some more photos here:

LynBDesigns Absolutely Absolem

Hello lovelies!

Quick swatch today: LynBDesigns "Absolutely Absolem", from the Wonderland collection:

I used this earlier in this mani, so this swatch was actually done on my Cinderella hand ;) Look at the linear holo! And to amaze you further, when taken out of direct light, there are iridescent glitters everywhere to continue the sparkle... 

See, between the holo? It's awesome :D This is two easy coats. Application is flawless. Looooove!
