Glitter Gal Transfusion and Hot Chilli - Swatches, Review and Comparison

Personal Collection 
*These products are Cruelty Free 


As promised, my swatches and reviews of two of the newer, limited availability Glitter Gal polishes, Hot Chilli and Transfusion - and a comparison.



Glitter Gal Transfusion

Glitter Gal Hot Chilli


The formula and application were identical on these two. Smooth and easy, two coats for full opacity. No issues to report at all. NOTE: Hot Chilli's holographic properties were not diminished by top coat but top coat killed most of the holo in Transfusion.

Celiac Awareness Blogger Collaboration Mani

Awareness Manicure Post 



May is Celiac Awareness month and its colors are yellow and green. Celiac Disease is more than an allergy to gluten. Gluten is an ingredient found in bread, pasta, anything wheat-based, and even items such as soy sauce. Basically gluten is in much of our daily food. From the National Foundation from Celiac Awareness, “Celiac disease is an autoimmune digestive disease that damages the villi of the small intestine and interferes with absorption of nutrients from food. What does this mean? Essentially the body is attacking itself every time a person with celiac consumes gluten.” When someone with Celiac eats gluten, it can take the intestine up to a year to heal from the gluten attack. You can find more info at http://www.celiaccentral.org/



Celiac Awareness Month Manicure



I used Ozotic 904 Sugar for this manicure and the ribbons are a mix of freehand and stamping (because I still can't get the stamping thing down) using black covered in Ozotic 904, which turns to a dark green.

Over the next couple of days, more and more bloggers will be adding their manicures for Celiac Awareness. Please check them out by clicking the thumbnails at the bottom of this post.

JENsations Rainbows & Unicorns and Budding Love

Press Sample 
*These products are Cruelty Free 


I'm back with more polishes from JENsations! This time I have Rainbows & Unicorns and Budding Love to show you.

First up, Rainbows & Unicorns. It's described as "a mix of multi-sized metallic red, purple, green, blue, gold & orange hexagon glitter in a semi-sheer white jelly base. Great glitter topper or jelly sandwich!"

I disagree with the sheerness because it was opaque for me in 2 coats. I have to say that I am really impressed with the formula on this one. Milky-based glitter polishes sometimes give me issues because they can be gloopy or the glitters stick together or won't come out, etc.  This one is perfect. I used 2 coats - 1 light coat and one medium coat - and one coat of Poshe top coat for the photos. No issues to report at all.

Good morning! Today I have another polish from Ruby White Tips to show you. This one is called OMG...I...DIE.

OMG...I...DIE was inspired by Rachel Zoe - can't you just hear her saying that? It's BANANAS! (giggle) This one is a raspberry jelly base with orange and pale blue/lavender square glitter, medium round teal glitter, and holographic micro-glitter. I used two coats of this and one coat of Poshe top coat for the photos. No issues with formula or application.
