Powder Perfect present an Indie Extravaganza Volume 2

The second volume of the Indie Extravaganza is releasing this morning the 8th November. The brain child of Jacinta from Powder Perfect this extravaganza will include fifteen polishes in total from Australian Indie brands. Each volume will include five brands with a polish created as their 'signature' polish. This is the second Volume.

This second volume will be on sale on at Powder Perfect website. Each volume of 5 polishes is RRP $50 plus shipping as normal - This Volume will be limited to 20 sets released to the public

The first polish is from Shades of Phoenix and is Triton. I adore the colour of this crelly as it's a gorgeous bright blue - a little bit duller than photos show but still a gorgeous colour. There are blue and white glitter in hexes and triangles. It applied perfectly and I am wearing three thin coats with top coat.

The second offering is from one of my favourites Hollish Nails and is Office Party. This subtle glitter crelly is a grey crelly with just the right amount of bright coloured glitter. I am wearing three thin coats with top coat and the formula was great.

Number three is from Peita's Polish and is named Flying Trapeze. It has a hot pink jelly base with small bright pieces of glitter throughout. It has a shimmer running through out. I am wearing three coats with top coat and I had no problems with the formula.

Number 4 is my favourite - this polish makes my heart sing. From Two Birds Lacquer this is Popcorn. I adore this colour it's so pretty and looks great with my skin tone. To me I love the amount of green that is in the yellow, it's just perfect for summer. In the crelly base is teeny black micro and some larger white hexes. It applied like a breeze and I know I will get a lot of wear from this one.

Last but definitely not least is PrettyPots Polish - Secrets of Her Majesty. I am terribly sorry I didn't get any sun shine shots but the weather and my health have been against me. From the way the holo shows inside I'm sure it's just incredible outside. It's a pretty purple a tad darker than my photos came out. Application was simple with two coats and top coat.

Hollish - Spring collection

Today I have to share with you a gorgeous and bright spring collection from Hollish. It contains 4 of my favourite polishes - microglitters!! So that makes me super happy. all of these polishes are available now at the Hollish Etsy store.

First in the pretty in pink microglitter Fuchsia. Super easy to apply, as always I'm wearing a base coat. One of the great things about these polishes is you can choose to wear them with or without a top coat, so you kind of have two polishes in one. A nice texture polish or put on some top coat and you have a shiny microglitter. I am wearing two coats and application was excellent.

Next up is Lavender, for this one the above photo has top coat and the below photo is without to give you an idea of the two ways you can wear it. Again application was flawless and I am wearing 2 coats.

Wow this beauty is my favourite in this range, named Cormflower it truly is gorgeous and a colour not often seen in polish. I personally love the colour and it's drawn me right in. Above photo is without top coat and the below is with top coat. Again super easy application and I am wearing two coats.

Va va va voom - I know a statement like that is usually reserved for red but this green is stunning. This is Grass a lovely leaf green microglitter. Again above is without top coat and below has top coat. Another flawless application and I am wearing two coats.

Now we move into two very spring inspired glitter toppers. This is Bloom and it has a bright mixture of micro to medium sized hex and square glitter in bright shades of pink, green, blue and lavender. I used one dabbed coat and top coat.

Lastly is Settle Petal! Another glitter topper with fun bright colours in shades of blue, green, caramel, pink and lavender. I used one dabbed coat again and top coat.

These polishes were sent to me for an honest review. All opinions are my own. Please note computer monitors may vary in colour display.

Hollish Nails - Emerald micro glitter

How gorgeous is this green? I'm so in love with this colour <3. Hollish Nails does awesome solid colour micro glitters and I'm so pleased more colours have been added to the collection. They are a really versatile polish and can be worn with or without top coat, so they are a textured polish and a glitter all in one. The colours are so richly pigmented and gorgeous, I can't wait to add more to my collection :). Of course I had to add a little nail art. My middle finger is Zoya Raven with white, Zoya Trixie and the Emerald micro glitter as dots. This is one polish I'm going to have trouble removing as I could wear it every day.

Yay for the weekend, I hope you all enjoy yours, Tx

Hollish Nails - review Murder on the Dancefloor, Touched by Midas, Bazaar and Snow Puppies

I can't believe I somehow didn't review these gorgeous polishes earlier! I think I lost a few brain cells in the pre-Christmas chaos. These beauties are from Hollish Nails and as a new Indie maker I am quickly falling in love with the brand through their outstanding polishes. You can find Hollish Nails on etsy or Facebook, now onto the polishes.

The first two are from the amazing Death by Sparkle collection that contains 4 to die for polishes. I review I Bleed Rubies and Cyan-ide here. Now I have the two other gems in this collection to show you. Firstly is this exquisite silver sparkler Murder on the Dancefloor. This polish is an absolute must for all!! It is so sparkly and gorgeous, applies like a dream and with a top coat has a gorgeous smooth finish. It catches the sun and has you staring at your nails for hours. This is one of my new favourite silver polishes. All of the Death by Sparkles polishes can be worn with or without top coat and as you know I'm not a fan of textured these are perfect for me to have that amazing sparkly effect without the roughness. I truly adore this polish.

Next is Touched by Midas the last of the Death by Sparkles I have to share with you. The formula on this one is a little different and has more translucency than the other 3, but it doesn't stop that gorgeous sparkly effect I keep raving about. Again it is super easy to apply, dries in super quick time and has that added bonus of you getting to choose whether you want to wear a top coat or leave it as a textured finish.

The third polish I have to share today is Bazaar, this is a stunning glitter topper. Here I have worn one coat over a England Perceval. Bazaar contains tiny to medium red glitter as well as metallic and holo squares and hex. It also has orange, blue, teal hexes and bright pink dots. Perfect to go over any of those colours but I love it over red. There was no problems with application, the glitter applied easily and there was no fishing for pieces. This colour combination is just stunning!

Lastly I have Snow Puppies to show you. Another bright and cheerful glitter topper Snow Puppies has orange, hot pink and white glitters with fuschia dots. This combination of colours works fabulously. Here I am wearing it over Powder Perfect - Raspberry Whorl. It would look great over any of the other colours as well. Again application was easy and I love how it dresses up a plain polish.

New Indie - Hollish Nails

Today I have a new Aussie Indie to share with you. Hollish Nails can be found on etsy. I was lucky enough to have a chance to review four of their polishes. The first two are from the Death by Sparkles collection and are just fabulous. This one is Cyan-ide and it's a gorgeous polish of holographic glitter. I have used my 3 coats, like always but complete coverage was achieved with 2 coats. One of the greatest things about the Death by Sparkles collection is they dry to a texture finish and can be left as a texture or be used with a top coat. I used a top coat as I'm not a huge fan of the texture finish. This polish applied beautifully and I was really impressed with the quality of the polish.

I Bleed Rubies is also from the Death by Sparkles collection and again dries to a texture finish or you can add top coat. I Bleed Rubies is a deep pink and I am wearing 3 thin coats but full coverage was achieved at 2 coats. It is just so sparkly, far more than the photos show. Application was again a breeze and I love these polishes for their coverage, colours and sparkle.

Thirdly is a gorgeous glitter topper called Peacock Noir. This is stunning and has all the colours of a peacock in small glitter. There is aqua, purple, green and gold. I am wearing it here over Zoya Imperial Russia. Application was super easy with no fishing for glitter.

Lastly I have another gorgeous topper with gold flakes. I am wearing it over Zoya Natty and I just love how it looks. It's perfect to add an extra pop to plain nail polish. Application was simple and I only used one coat.
