Jindie Nails - Candy Land

Press Sample 
*This product is Cruelty Free 


Tonight I have a bright, fun glitter polish to show you from Jindie Nails. Candy Land.


Jindie Nails Candy Land


Candy Land isn't a new polish, but it's very popular and you can see why. It's a creamy white sheer-ish base full of various colors of neon glitters in varying sizes. Application is good on this one if you're used to these types of milky-based glitters. The trick is to use very thin coats and wait for a few minutes between each coat and you shouldn't have any issues. (NOTE: As with all glitter polishes, I use a toothpick to scrape down the sides and across the bottom to "float" the glitters before using.) I used 3 coats and one coat of Poshe top coat for the photos.

JENsations Turn Off the Lights!

Press Sample 
*This product is Cruelty Free 



Happy Saturday! Today I have my first JENsations polish to show you - Turn Off the Lights!


"TURN OFF THE LIGHTS!" ---a mix of multi-sized matte neon pink, green, yellow & orange hexagon glitter in a white jelly base. Great glitter topper!

I used two light coats of this over a plain white creme base. I had no issues at all - the glitters came out easily and spread nicely on the nail. One coat of Poshe top coat for the photos. It's a very "happy" polish. I am having a bit of trouble with my hands with all this "Spring cleaning" though, so my apologies for that. *NOTE: the glitters are breaking down as you can see in the close-up photos, so I don't know how much longer the polish will be usable if they keep breaking down.

What do you think? Have you tried JENsations polish yet? I like that this is a glitter topper rather than a milky base. *NOTE: the glitters are breaking down as you can see in the close-up photos.

JENsations polishes are available at the JENsations Etsy store here and retail for $8.00 for full-sized bottles. You can also "like" JENsations on Facebook for more information.

Darling Diva Polish Wicked Attraction and Sugar Rush

Good evening! Tonight I have a couple more polishes from Darling Diva to show you: Wicked Attraction and Sugar Rush.

Wicked Attraction is described as an indigo jelly packed with purple/blue iridescent glitters, purple hexes, blue hexes, and holographic dust. 

This polish can be worn alone in about 3 coats but I layered one coat over a plain black creme on all but the ring finger where I layered it over a dark blue (Pure Ice All Night Long.) I didn't have any issues with formula or application and I didn't have to dab to get a nice even coat of glitters. Shown with one heavy coat of Poshe to smooth it all down.

Sugar Rush is one of the most cheerful polishes I think I have ever tried! It's described by the maker as translucent larger neon hexes, iridescent glitters, and a touch of silver holographic powder in a clear base, this is meant for layering. 

The translucent glitters are larger and remain stiff. IMO this needs 2 coats of a fast dry topcoat to remain smooth. You may also need to use the dab method to place the glitters unless you are like me and like it totally random.

She's totally spot-on. Actually the larger glitters came out in such abundance that I had to make sure not to get too many on the brush and I did have to dab but the glitters laid down nicely on the nail. For me, the payoff was worth it. I layered this one over a plain white creme so the colors really popped. I used two coats of Poshe to make it totally smooth. And as you can see, I've already worn this one twice. Pre-chop and later, over my newly chopped nails.
