Jindie Nails - Battle Royale and Dream in Color

Hi all! Today I've got two more from Jindie Nails Winter Chic collection to show you. I thought it was the perfect time because she's re-opened her shop tonight with a FULL restock. I spent so much money, haha. But it will be worth it! Here's a reminder of what the entire collection looks like.



Today I'm showing you Battle Royale and Dream in Color. First up, here's the description for Battle Royale:
"Deep blue jelly with color shifting shimmer that shifts from violet to teal to pink with periwinkle, deep purple, teal, magenta, mauve, lavender matte and metallic glitters plus turquoise, light pink & hot pink rare, round/dot glitters. No fishing. Opaque in 2-3 coats and meant to be worn on its own."

This polish base is so bright, I can't even describe it to you in words. Just look at these photos, and know it's still brighter than that! And it is packed FULL of glitter! :) The following photos show 3 coats of Battle Royale with a coat of SV on top.

In shade, you can really see all the different shapes, sizes and colors of glitter.

The sun really brings out the shimmer in the base! And just LOOK at all. that. glitter. Gorgeous.

Formula on this was good, but a bit difficult just due to all the glitter. It kind of reminded me of a Crows Toes polish in that sense, because it was so packed full of glitter that application could be slightly tricky if you weren't careful. I really didn't have too much trouble with it spreading evenly when I made sure to get a good glob of polish on the brush.

Next up is Dream in Color!
"All same size matte hex in neon blue, neon yellow, neon green, barbie pink, white and black in a clear base."

I love these types of polishes - the tiny matte glitters are really versatile and look great built up or over lots of different colors. I chose a purple because there was no purple glitter in Dream in Color, and I wanted to be sure that all the colors could be seen. My thumb is 3 coats of Dream in Color alone.

Formula on this was good, it's a bit thick, but that's to be expected with these tiny glitters, and it is packed FULL. You only need to get a bit of polish on your brush, and it will go a long way. I recommend a couple coats of a good thick topcoat like Seche Vite. I just got Glitter Food, so I haven't tried that out yet, but I hear it's great for smoothing out rough glitters like this one. :)

Both of the polishes shown here retail for $8 for a full size bottle, and $4.25 for a mini size. Right now, the Etsy shop is OPEN for business so hurry over there and pick up the polishes you want! They are going fast. I bought seven...my bank account is crying, haha!
