Glam Polish Every Witch Way Collection [Partial] Swatches & Review

A Witchy Friday to you, kind reader! Today I have a new bunch of shades to share with you from Australian indie brand Glam Polish, the Every Witch Way collection! This is a six piece collection of wintery pale shades that invoke feelings of mystical sorceresses instead of the cackling green witches we think of around Halloween. I've got five of the colors to show you, so let's take a look!

Press Sample

Resting Witch Face is a pale greyed out blue holographic crelly with blue and purple glass fleck shimmer. This applied easily, it was nice and creamy for such a bangin holo! Two coats. Confession? I'm pretty sure I have been accused of having a "resting witch face." ;)

Every Witch Way has multiple sizes of pink, blue, white and silver holographic glitter along with color shifting iridescent glitter in a clear base. I layered one coat over Resting Witch Face. This is so gorgeous! The glitter will dry bumpy so you'll want a thick layer of top coat. This would also look really great over darker colors!

I had to show a photo of this in the shade. The shifty glitters give the polish such a different look in low light! (and oddly made it look kinda purple, but it's not purple)

Karma’s A Witch is a soft violet holographic crelly with purple glass fleck shimmer. This was just as great as the other crelly holo, though this one was slightly more jelly than crème. Just as opaque though, only two coats for opacity.

Witches Be Trippin’ has multiple sizes of black, white and silver holographic glitter along with more of those color shifting iridescent glitter pieces in a clear base. I put one coat on top of Karma's A Witch. This is incredibly beautiful and I am mesmerized by it. You will probably want a thick top coat for this one as well to get a smooth finish.

Another shade shot for you! I am totally in love with this.

Witch Be Like… has an aqua tinted jelly base with purple glass flecks and multiple sizes of holographic glitter. This guy was slightly runny for me, but not terribly so. The jelly base can get goopy if you pile on your coats too quickly, so be sure to wait a few minutes between layers to get the best application. I used two here.

The last shade that I don't have to show you is Witch With Attitude, a pink tinted jelly base with blue glass flecks and multiple sizes of holographic glitter, sort of the sister shade to Witches Be Like... You can see some lovely swatches of that gal on the Glam Polish instagram page!

This collection goes on sale today Dec. 9 at 1pm EST on the Glam Polish website. You can save 10% when purchasing the entire collection. Let me know what you think about these gorgeous Glam shades! I'm not exaggerating when I say everyone needs Witches Be Trippin' haha!

Glam Polish Limited Edition Group Exclusives Swatches & Review

Hi there! I've got some new polishes from Glam Polish today to celebrate their 4th Anniversary and their fans, two new limited edition polishes created exclusively for the members of the Glam Polish Facebook fan group!

Press Sample

Glitter For Breakfast is a special shade created from an inspiration picture and name suggested by fan group members. It is a mix of pink, violet, gold and silver holographic microglitter in a delicate pink tinted holo base with platinum silver flakes, pink glass flecks, and holo flakies. Excellent application, covers in one coat but I used two here. It is a glitter so it will dry with a gritty texture, I suggest using a layer of thick top coat or two to get a smooth finish.

L-O-V-E is a special shade created to celebrate Glam Polish’s birthday and to show appreciation to their customers for supporting them over the last four years. This is a greenish-teal-turquoise intense holographic with added platinum silver flakes. This is has a superb formula, it's close to being a one coater but I used two here. This is stunning, not to be missed!

Glam Polish Hella Holo Customs Swatches & Review

Hi folks! Today I wanted to show you some cool new shades from Glam Polish, who is a guest maker of the month for the Facebook group Hella Holo Customs. The group has two makers each month create a few polishes from ideas from group members, and then those polishes are sold exclusively in the group. I'm excited to be able to show you these pretties!

Press Sample

Serendipity is a soft, pale blue holographic with purple and pink shimmer, sparks and glass flecks. Effortless formula, just glides on the nail. This is two coats.

Tainted Love is a berry red linear holographic with a pink flash. This is excellent, with full coverage on one coat. It did seem a tad deeper on two coats though, which is what I've done here.

Sole Fantasy has a violet tinted holographic base with violet, pink, lavender and silver ultra holo microglitter, neon pink microglitter, and purple glass flecks. This was easy to apply, even considering how full of glitter it is. This is two coats. The microglitter can be a bit bumpy so you might want an extra layer of top coat.

Forest Nymph is a forest green jelly filled with iridescent, color shifting and holo flakies, purple glass flecks and violet holo microglitter. This is super duper packed with flakies, which may make it seem thick, but the base is thinner so don't overload your brush. I used two coats here.

These are available now through the end of the month; to order, you need to join the Hella Holo Customs group and read all the rules. Let me know what you think of these special holos! Are you interested in picking any up? Thanks for stopping by today and have a lovely weekend!

Glam Polish Experiment 626 Collection [Partial] Swatches & Review

Aloha friends! Today I am bringing you a new collection from Glam Polish called Experiment 626, inspired by the 2002 animated film Lilo & Stitch! If you haven't seen it, it's "the story of a small blue alien that is banished to Earth and adopted by a lonely Hawaiian girl who teaches him how to love." It's one of my favorite Disney movies, so cute and Stitch is adorable and hilarious. There are nine polishes in this collection and I have six of them to show you.

Press Sample

Nobody Gets Left Behind Or Forgotten is a subtle holographic pastel seafoam green with silvery pink shimmer and ultra holo glitter. My bottle cap had come loose on this so some of it leaked into the cap, which in turn exposed it to air so it ended up being a bit thick. But I'm almost positive yours won't be. I used two coats here. This dries a little dull so you'll want a shiny top coat to make it pop.

Evil Genius is a plum purple scattered holographic with glass flecks, multichrome shimmer that shifts from red to violet to blue, and ultra holo microglitter. This has a great formula, easy to apply and covers in two coats.

I’m Sorry I Bit You and Pulled Your Hair... is a subtle holographic blush peachy pink with a strong gold shimmer and ultra holo glitter. This is the same type of polish as the green shade, but it's not thick at all which makes me think it's the leaky bottle that made my green that way. Applied great, opaque in two coats.

Stitch to The Rescue has a bright blue milky-jelly base with neon pink, light blue and silver ultra holo glitter. The silver glitter gets coated in the blue base and it all looks deep and complex, like jeweled rock or something, sooo pretty. This was a little thin but easy as pie to apply. This is two coats.

Lilo You Lolo. is a sparkly sandy mix of glitters in holographic base. These shades go so well together, I am getting vibes of a colorful shells on the beach from this mix. Glam Polish has seriously cracked the code on perfect full coverage microglitters because all of the ones I've tried from them are perfection. This is two effortless coats. As with all glitters, you'll want a thick layer of top coat or two to get a smooth finish.

Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride is a teal crelly scattered holographic filled with glass flecks and multiple sizes of holo glitter. Beautiful and excellent formula, super close to being a one coater but I did use two layers here.

The other three shades in the collection are: Experiment 626 - cerise intense holo with navy glass flecks; Model Citizen - white crelly holo with blue glass flecks and multiple sizes of silver holo glitter; and No More Caffeine For You - lime scattered holo with strong golden shimmer, glass flecks and a hint of ultra holo glitter.

This collection will be available this Friday, October 28th, at 2pm EDT USA on the Glam Polish website. They are priced at $11.50 each. This is a limited edition collection so there's no telling how long it will be sticking around for. What do you think of these colors?  Are you a Lilo & Stitch fan?

Glam Polish Halloween 2016 Trio Swatches & Review

I am back with my second same-brand-two-days-in-a-row post this month, haha. More Glam Polish! I have their stunning Halloween trio for this year to show you today. Do you remember last year's trio? Needless to say, I was super excited to see what they would come out with this year. Let's take a peek shall we?

Press Sample

Frankenslime 2016 is a neon green jelly filled with ultra holo glitter, multiple sizes of neon green, metallic purple glitter and a hint of holo. This is ultra neon, super eye searing! This is a little chunky due to how much glitter is in it, but with a great Glam Polish formula! Great coverage at two coats.

Be Careful What You Witch For… has a purple tinted holographic base packed with multiple sizes of silver holo, blue, sapphire, purple, lavender, magenta and pink glitter. Fabulous glitter payoff and lovely to apply. Two coats!

Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun is a light chartreuse holographic jelly with ultra holo glitter, multiple sizes of silver and blue holo glitter and plenty of glass flecks. A tiny bit thicker but not difficult to handle. This is also two coats.

This trio is releasing the same time as the Horror Shop shades I showed you yesterday, this Friday, September 30 at 1pm EST (USA) on the Glam Polish website. Individually they are $11.50 each and as a set they are $32. What do you think of these glittery lacquers?

Glam Polish Halloween Horror Shop Collection [Partial] Swatches & Review

Hello and happy weekend! Today I get the privilege of sharing a few shades that will be released in the upcoming Glam Polish 2016 Halloween Horror Shop event! There are a whopping 25 shades released for this event, all limited editions in small batches, each exclusive to the Glam Polish site, meaning they can and probably will sell out quickly. And they will not be restocked. I have four of the 25, only a few bloggers are reviewing shades from the collection, and they are all dope! We all know that Halloween is my favorite holiday (it's practically a season, really), and these horror movie/tv inspired shades are so right up my alley!

Press Sample

Fright Night is a dark grape purple scattered holographic filled with color shifting flakies and glass flecks. This is loaded to the brim with goodies but it wasn't difficult to apply which was nice, it spreads out on the nail evenly and covers nicely. Two coats here. Fright Night is an 80's teen horror that I haven't actually watched, can you believe it! I'll have to fix that soon.

You Are Who You Eat is an intense linear holographic in a berry pinky crimson shade. This applied like magic, it's a one coater but the color deepens slightly with two. This is named for the 1999 black comedy horror film Ravenous, another I haven't seen.

Tales From the CRYPT is a shifting blue-purple with holographic flakies. Another easy one, two coats for opacity. The CRYPT series was on tv when I was still a child so I never got the chance to watch them, but that skeleton guy still creeps me out whenever I think about him haha.

Frights! Camera! Action! is a teal scattered holographic with strong crimson shimmer and holo flakies. This one made me gasp when I first saw it in the bottle, a seriously stunning shade. The pinky red flash is easier to see in person, my photo can't do it justice. As far as I can tell, this name is referencing the cartoon Monster High, but I'm not sure haha.

The Halloween Horror Shop shades will be available on on Friday, September 30th at 1pm EDT (USA) on the Glam Polish website for $12 each. The other 21 shades are listed in their shop now if you want to see all that will be available, there's honestly too many to write out here haha. Let me know what you think of these shades, and if you're planning on picking up any from the limited editions! It cracks me up that being such a fan of the horror genre, the four shades I got are named after movies/shows that I haven't seen! Are you a scary movie junkie??

Glam Polish Coven Collection Swatches & Review

Hey folks! Today I have some great fall shades to show you, the limited edition Coven collection from Australian indie brand Glam Polish! "Hide your children and lock your doors our COVEN of Divine Sorceress’s are on the lose this fall and no one is safe from their Dark Power!" These are all named after spooky witches from movies and television! All the formulas are identical, opaque jellies with easy two coat application.

Press Sample

Katrina Van Tassel is an intense red jelly with scattered holographic flakes. Named for the female lead in Sleepy Hollow, which is of course an amazing movie.

Nancy Downs is a deep violet jelly with scattered holographic flakes. This color represents the character in The Craft, maybe one of my favorite movies of all time.

Madame Serena is a vampy plumberry jelly with scattered holographic flakes. This name comes from the seer in the radtastic 80's movie Teen Witch.

Zelena is a bewitching green jelly with scattered holographic flakes. Inspired by the character in the television show Once Upon a Time, which I admit I've never seen.

Ms. Eva Ernst is a rich burgundy jelly with scattered holographic flakes. Named for the Grand High Witch from the movie/book The Witches, another favorite.

Magica De Spell is a dark purple jelly with scattered holographic flakes. I didn't know who this was before I looked it up, but she's a cartoon sorceress from the Scrooge McDuck universe.

These will be available this Friday, September 2nd at 2pm EST on the Glam Polish website for $11.50 each, $66 for the set. What do you think about these witchy polishes? I do wish she would've stuck in a deep blue, or a dark green, but they all have amazing formulas and are perfect for the upcoming fall/Halloween season! And speaking of Halloween, I know Glam has a Goosebumps themed 9-piece collection coming out the same day as these, and later in September or early October they have another Halloween collection coming out! Yay!

Glam Polish Ready...Set... GO! Collection [Partial] Swatches & Review

Mario Kart is literally the only video game I ever want to play. But I don't own it or a way to play it sadly. I've honestly considered buying a gaming console just to play Mario Kart, haha! Needless to say, I was SO down with the theme of Glam Polish's latest collection when I heard what it was. Ready...Set...GO! is a collection of twelve glitter polishes (well, one is actually a holo) inspired by the characters from the Mario Kart game and I have six of them to show you today!

Press Sample

All of these shades had the same formula, great and easy to apply like almost every Glam glitter polish I've tried. They are all opaque in two coats and dry slightly textured, like glitters do, so you'll want two layers of top coat for a smooth surface. Some of them have star shaped glitter, but they were pretty sparse so you may have to fish a bit to get them on the nail.

Mario Time! (inspired by Mario) has "cherry, blueberry, neon blue, white, red, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

Yeah Baby! (inspired by Lemmy Koopa) has "rainbow and yellow, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

Luigi Number One! (inspired by Luigi) has "blue, green, white, yellow, silver holo, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

Wario Always Win! (inspired by Wario) has "pink, magenta, yellow, white, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

Watch Out! (inspired by Yoshi) has "neon green, neon orange, green, orange, white, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

Wheels Up! (inspired by Toadette) has "neon pink, magenta, pink holo, white, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

The remaining shades in the collection that I did not receive are: Pink Gold Peach! (inspired by Pink Gold Peach) is a "rose gold holo with pink/gold shimmering flakies"; Peach has Got It! (inspired by Princess Peach) has "neon pink, orchid, coral, bubblegum, white, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base"; I’ll Get You Next Time! (inspired by Bowser) has "yellow, neon green, neon orange, white micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base"; Take That Losers! (inspired by Donkey Kong) has "red holo, copper holo, yellow, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base"; Wheeeeee! (inspired by Rosalina) has "aqua, turquoise, white, micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base"; and Waluigi Lose! Impossible! (inspired by Waluigi) has "purple, navy, white micro and shaped glitters with ultra holo glitter in a holo base."

This collection releases on Friday, August 5th at 2pm EST (USA) on the Glam Polish website. Be sure to check out the rest of the collection, Glam Polish always posts photos on their Facebook page. What do you think of this collection? Are you a Mario Kart fan?

Glam Polish Forever After Collection [Partial] Swatches & Review

Hellooooo polish enthusiasts! Today I have an upcoming Glam Polish collection to show you, called Forever After! This is a massive collection, the biggest I've seen from them I think, at 12 shades. I have six of them for you today, and they're all amazing! “Adventure through an Enchanted Kingdom with our twelve bright and sparkly shades inspired by the Magic of Fairytales.”

Press Sample

Someday My Prince Will Come is a bright blue scattered holographic with ultra holo glitter. This had a good formula, thick in a good way, not too thick. Opaque in two coats. Dries slightly bumpy from the glitter, but just one layer of top coat smoothed them all out for me.

A Little Bit Of Magic is a bright lemon chartreuse scattered holographic with ultra holo glitter. This one was a tiny bit streaky, due to the neon shade I'm sure, but I still only needed two coats.

Happily Ever After is a bright watermelon coral scattered holographic with ultra holo glitter. This was a little less thick than the blue, and applied super easily. The almost neon, coral/pink/orange base shade is my favorite color ever and I'm so happy to see it from one of my favorite indie brands. Two coats here as well.

Slay The Dragon is a bright lime green scattered holographic with ultra holo glitter. This guy applied similarly to the blue shade, thick but good, and opaque in two coats.

Her Own Kingdom is a bright magenta pink scattered holographic with ultra holo glitter. This one was not as thick, like the coral shade, and was opaque on one coat! I did two however, as I always do.

Once Upon A Time is a bright amethyst purple scattered holographic with ultra holo glitter. Great formula, same as the blue shade, a little thicker but easy to apply. Two coats here.

The other half of the collection includes: Never Grow Up - matte rainbow glitter bomb with holo base and ultra holo glitter; Love Always Finds A Way - bright lilac scattered holo with ultra holo glitter; True Love’s Kiss - bright pink scattered holo with ultra holo glitter; Fairest of Them All - bright periwinkle scattered holo with ultra holo glitter; Enchanted Forest - bright jade scattered holo with ultra holo glitter; and Far Far Away - bright orange scattered holo with ultra holo glitter. You can see bottle shots and swatches on the Glam Polish facebook and instagram pages.

I went a little crazy pants and did some nail art with the shades I received, insanity! I did a simple rainbow-ish vertical gradient using a latex-free makeup sponge and dabbing on the polish until it became opaque. My trusty latex skin barrier Liquid Palisade helped me keep the polish off my skin (though some green is still visible around my cuticle, ugh). I used a thicker topcoat, Glitter Glaze by Girly Bits, to help smooth the multiple glittery coats. Not perfect, but I'm pretty happy with it!

This collection will be available this Friday, July 1st at 2pm EST on the Glam Polish website. I'm pretty dang in love with these shades, they are so nice to put on, they're bright and summery, and they're sooo glittery without being super gritty. And they're themed for fairy tales which is adorable! Tell me what you think!
