Skittlette

The task for today's Nail Art Sunday is to do a skittlette! A very fun theme which you can keep on a very easy level or do just how advanced you like. I chose to keep it very easy but I tried to convince myself that less is more ;)

I decided to chose one polish as starting point and chose the others after that one. So I chose Nails Inc Sugar House Lane (middle finger) and chose the others to match that one. I ended up with OPI Solitaire on pointer finger, Illamasqua Scorn on ring finger and Barry M Vanilla on thumb and pinkie.

And finally a huge thank you for all your birthday wishes yesterday! They really warmed my heart!

How do you like my skittlette?

Comparison of Jindie Nails Candy Land and Candy Land Remix - swatches

Today I've got a comparison for you of two Jindie polishes! I'm comparing the epic Candy Land with the Limited Edition polish Candy Land Remix. I feel so lucky to have got the remix version!

The difference of the two polishes is that the remix version has tiny round neon blue, neon pink and neon orange glitters in it but the large glitter combination is the same.

This is three coats of each polish.

Index and ring finger: Candy Land Remix
Middle and pinkie: Candy Land

I actually like the original version best. It's more calm even though the remix version is a fun blend too!

If you'd like to see more swatches of the original version of Candy Land click here. A review of the remix version will be posted in a near future.

Which one do like best?

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...

Do you have any polish that needs extreme glitter fishing?

Jindie Nails Burrrberry - swatches and review

It's time to show another indie polish! This time it's the pretty Burrrberry - and yes, it's supposed to be three r:s in Burrr ;)

GOOD TO KNOW ABOUT BURRRBERRY:

Type of polish: Milky glitter.

Colour: Different blue and magenta metallic and holo glitters in different shapes and sizes in a crelly white base.

Collection: Jindie Nails Winter Chic Collection 2012.

Opacity: Good! This is three coats.

Formula: Very good! A nice formula which is easy to apply.

Brush: Very good! No complaints.

Shine: Very shiny on its own, but I have one coat of Seche Vite top coat in these pictures.

Accurate colour, photo vs IRL: Quite accurate. The only thing I quite didn't manage to capture is the holo effect of the glitters. They are really pretty in the right lighting!

Grade: 4/5 :)

As you might know by now, I'm really into milky glitter polishes and I got really excited when I could borrow this from a friend! But perhaps I wasn't in the right glitter-mood ;) because this is not a top mark for me. It's still really pretty though and a 4 out of 5 is not bad at all, is it? :) Perhaps it's more of a winter polish ;)
PS. It's not fun at all to remove... :/ I had to do foil packs.

How do you like Burrrberry?
