Green Glitter Indie Polish swatch and review


***Press Sample***


Hey y'all! 

Today on the blog I have a swatch and review of some more polishes from Green Glitter Indie Polish to show you! 

Top: Tin Man, bottom left: Girl On Fire, bottom right: Pink Champagne Supernova

I am really excited to show you these polishes because I think they're super unique! Each of them are slightly textured with varying colors and finishes. Let's jump right in, shall we? 




Tin Man shown in 2 coats, no topcoat
The first polish that I have to show you is called Tin Man. This polish is from the GG Indie Polish Wizard of Oz collection. This cool grey polish is slightly textured with silver glitter throughout. I had no issues with the application of this polish, the formula was very easy to work with. This swatch is two coats, no topcoat. I believe you could smooth out the texture by applying topcoat.

The second polish I have to show you is called Girl On Fire. I adore this polish! This one can be best described as a red to orange duo chrome with red glitter throughout. It was difficult to show the shift but you can see it a little better in the macro. I had no issues with the application of this polish, although it did leave some brush strokes as you can see in the swatch. That doesn't really bother me because I find that its pretty common in any metallic finish polish. I also didn't topcoat these swatches and I think the brush strokes would be less visible with a topcoat. This one also had a slight texture due to the glitter but it would likely smooth out with topcoat. This is two coats, no topcoat.

The final polish I have to show you is called Pink Champagne Supernova. This polish is incredibly unique to any other polish I have ever seen! It can best be described as champagne colored polish with blue iridescent shimmer. I had no issues with the formula on this polish, it applied very smoothly in 3 coats. It does have a slight texture to it which, like the others, would likely smooth out with the application of topcoat. I tried in all sorts of lighting to capture the shift of this polish but my camera just couldn't do it! I really need to invest in a better quality camera so that I can do these polishes justice! This polish would be excellent for someone who wants a classy nude pink polish with a little extra "oomph."

Green Glitter Indie Polish Spring Duo swatch and review!

***Press Sample***

Hey y'all! 

Today on the blog, I have a swatch and review of the Green Glitter Indie Polish Spring Duo! I am so happy that spring is officially here and we can all start to open up our windows and break out the bright colors. 

Bobbi from Green Glitter Indie Polish was kind enough to send me her Spring Duo to swatch and review and I was so happy to do so! The Spring Duo features two bright and ultra feminine shades called Watermelon Spritzer and Orange Creamsicle.

Better known as GG Indie Polish, all of Bobbi's polishes are big 5 free and cruelty free. They are supposed to be quick drying and long lasting. I did find that they dried quickly after applying which was actually a pleasant surprise for me because I didn't know that they had that quality! I never wear polish for very long, especially when I am swatching but I did wear Orange Creamsicle for two full days and only had very minor tip wear. I found that to be impressive since I am a stay at home mother of two boys which means lots of playing with cars, cleaning dirty hands, and folding laundry! 

Let's move on to the swatches. 

Watermelon Spritzer, 3 coats with topcoat 
Watermelon Spritzer was the first polish out of the duo that I swatched. It can best be described as a bright pink polish with gold micro shimmer throughout. This is shown in 3 coats plus top coat. I had no issues with the application of this polish and was very pleased with how it leveled itself out. The finish is not quite a cream or a jelly, but a crelly. I loved how squishy it was even though it was completely opaque. 

I included the macro of Watermelon Spritzer so that the gold shimmer is easier to see.

Orange Creamsicle, 3 coats with topcoat
Moving on to my favorite of the duo, this is Orange Creamsicle. This polish can best be described as a peachy orange crelly polish with matte white circle glitter throughout. I found no issues with the application of this one either. I didn't have to do any major fishing to get the glitter out which surprised me because the glitter in this polish isn't densely packed. I expected to be fishing around forever but they came out almost all on their own! This is 3 coats with topcoat. Again, SO squishy. 

Here's a macro to show the glitter, this was on my thumb and all of these came out on their own.

Overall, I give this duo a thumbs up. Both polishes had formulas that were very easy to apply which is really my gauge on the quality of a polish when I first try it. I am really excited to try more polishes from GG Indie Polish! This duo is still available in her store if you'd like to purchase it. You can find it HERE. You can follow news on future releases and see more swatches on her INSTAGRAM. Go check her out!
