Jindie Nails Candy Land - swatches and review

This is a true summer polish! Neon glitters in a milky white jelly base! It screams summer! :)

This is three coats with a top coat. The formula is nice but it required major glitter fishing...!! More on that topic further down.

I also have the pleasure of owning the limited edition remix of this polish - Candy Land Remix. Stay tuned to see a review of that and a comparison of the two polishes. But this is Candy Land on its own! :)



GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT CANDY LAND:

Type of polish: Glitter in a milky base.

Colour: Matte neon hex glitters in different sizes in a milky white jelly base.

Opacity: Good! This is three coats. You can still see some vnl but thats jelly for you!

Formula: Very good! The base polish is very easy to apply but I had to fish for the glitters A LOT!!

Brush: Very good! No complaints.

Top Coat: Yes. One coat. You'll need more if you want it ultra smooth.

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Accurate. The depth is more visible live though!

Grade: 2/5 :/

This polish had all ingredients to become a favourite summer polish, and it would have been, if it hadn't been for the extreme glitter fishing I had to perform with this polish! If I did a normal dipping I got no glitters AT ALL!! None at all!! So imagine how much glitter fishing I had to do to be able to take these pictures...

How do you like Candy Land?
Do you have any polish that needs extreme glitter fishing?

  3. SÅ snyggt, precis ett lack i min smak. Däremot blir jag ju lite anti när du berättar om applikationen, man vill ju inte fiska (om någonsin) i ett sånt här lack. Känns som att det snålats med suspension base i lacket, för det är bra retligt om man inte får ett enda glitter efter man stuckigt ned penseln i lacket..Det gör ju inte att man sträcker sig efter lacket om man vet att det krävs enormt arbete för att få det fint.

    1. Det ÄR snyggt! Men det var såååå irriterande att behöva fiska så mycket och som du säger, man sträcker sig inte efter lacket igen när man vet hur mycket fiskande som behövs...

    1. Det är fint, men lite, ska vi kalla det, svårapplicerat ;)

  8. Jag hade denna, men eftersom jag totalt misslyckades med att fånga glittren så gav jag upp och sålde det.

    1. Jag förstår dig. Man tröttnar på att fiska efter ett tag.

  9. I remember this as a beautiful polish but I had difficulties with the glitter fishing too :D I've read somewhere that a girl turned her bottle upside down for a day or so and she's got a lot of glitters on her brush :)

    1. I tried the upside down trick too ;) I didn't think it helped but thanks for the advice! <3

  10. Hi meine Süsse, Candy land looks drop dead gorgeous on you!!! All this fishing was so worth the effort!!! But I totally understand, I cannot be bothered with this endless fishing and usually these polishes vanish in the depths of my lower drawers with little hope of getting used again ;-) - viele Küsschen xxx

    1. Hi pet! It is a really fun and lovely polish but I got soooo tired of the glitter fishing... I have the remix too. I so hope that one is better!! I don't even want to think about how many polishes I will never use again ;) I should sell them really and give the money to charity! :) Viele Küsshen!! xxx
