Different Dimension Cosmologically Speaking Swatch & Review

Hello my lovely polish addicts! Today I have an amazing post for you! I have three polishes from Different Dimension and their Cosmologically Speaking collection. These are the very first polishes that I have tried from Different Dimension, and after seeing these beauties, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase more in the future! So without any further delay, let's get to the polish!

First up is "Big Bang" which is a  GORGEOUS, densely packed glitter bomb with different sizes of holographic glitters in a holographic base. Can I just say, "Holy Holo Batman!"?!? This polish is absolutely amazing! The formula is absolute perfection. Even with all of the glitter packed into it, it still glides on with no issues and all the glitters lay completely flat on the nail. I will cherish this polish for a long time to come because it will always make an amazing accent nail with any mani, and completely blind you with awesomeness as a full mani. I only needed two coats for full opacity, and then added top coat for my pictures below.

Next up is "Heavenly Waters", which is a bright cobalt blue holographic polish with blue shimmer. Again, this polish is gorgeous! The blue shimmer is kind of hard to capture in pics but it's definitely there! Formula was great on this one as well. No streaking or dragging, and two coats is all you need for full opacity. I'm so in love! I added top coat to my two coats of "Heavenly Waters" for my pictures below.

Lastly for this post today is "Ultraviolet", which is a beautiful pink holographic polish with mauve and purple undertones. Now I am a pink freak, so I was super excited for this one. It did not disappoint me. It is absolutely stunning inside or out with the beautiful holographic shine. If you love pink like I do, you absolutely need this polish! Formula was great on this one as well. I used three coats with top coat for my pictures below.

Polish Addict Nail Color Swatch And Review

Hello Loves! Are any of you fans of jelly polishes? How about fans of Polish Addict Nail Color? Or maybe you're even a fan of both? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this post is for you! Today I have a couple jelly polishes from Polish Addict Nail Color (PANC) to share with you. So without any further delay, let's get to it!

 

First up is "Bright White", which is a white jelly polish that can be used in a few different ways. You could wear it alone, as I have in my photo, use it as a base for a glitter topper or nail art, or you could even use it to do a jelly sandwich! With so many different uses this polish is great! The formula is the perfection that I've come to know and love from PANC. I love the clean, crisp, and classy look this polish gives. Three easy coats with top coat will give you the look from my photo below!

Next up is "Caution" which is a bright neon orange jelly with scattered holo throughout. I love the brightness of this polish. Pair the brightness with a great jelly formula and you've got a match made in heaven. I had no issues with building this one up and getting it very close to opaque in three coats. Top coat was added for my pics below.

Next up is "Sea Witch", which is a neon purple jelly polish with scattered holo glitters throughout. I had to buy this one because of the name. If you've been reading my blog for awhile, it should come as no surprise that I am obsessed with the Little Mermaid, thus, I own this polish haha. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of with this polish is that the glitters tend to look like dark glitters when layered over. In person though its definitely not as noticeable as it is in my swatch. The formula was still great on this one though. I used three coats with top coat for my picture below.

Next up we have "Neon Moon", which is a neon blue jelly polish with scattered holo glitters throughout. This one was really pretty as a blue jelly polish. I've had this polish for a little while now and it is no longer blue. It is instead a really pretty teal green jelly polish that is still just as beautiful :-) I wish I had a swatch for you now of what the color has turned to but sadly I don't. Maybe if I remember, when I wear it again I'll edit this and add it in. Formula was great on this one as well. I did three coats with top coat for my picture below.

Lastly is "Aqua Haze", which is a light blue jelly polish with scattered holo and dark blue micro glitters. I absolutely love this polish! There's really not much to it, but it is still so gorgeous and I'm so glad I bought it. Formula, just like the others, was great! I was able to build this one up to be nearly opaque in three easy coats! Its perfection! Three coats with top coat were used for my picture.

So what did you think of this post today? Sadly I have shared with you polishes that are currently no longer available with the exception of "Bright White". This is what happens when you become pregnant and sick to your stomach for 4ish months, and then also lose track of time. For that I greatly apologize! I still wanted to share these with you, because hey, ya never know, Laura could decide to bring these babies back during the summer. If you haven't tried PANC, I highly suggest that you do! You can visit their shop by clicking the link here. Also be sure to follow PANC on Instagram @polishaddictnailcolor because Laura is CONSTANTLY coming up with new and amazing creations with great formulas! Make sure you subscribe to my blog via GFC or email if you would like to keep updated on new posts! Until next time, happy polishing!

Glisten & Glow Polish And Hand Care Review

Hello readers!! Today I have a jam packed post for you that involves Glisten & Glow hand care, nail prep and even polish! Jill is quite the busy woman when it comes to her business. She also offers some bath items as well. I haven't tried the bath items yet, but they are on my list of things to try in the future for sure. So let's not delay any further and lets dive into this great post!

First up I want to share with you the newest venture for Glisten & Glow and that is polish! When I found out that the maker of my favorite base and top coat was diving into the polish making world I was ecstatic and ready to get it on my tips asap! The polish I'm sharing with you today is called "I Love You To The Blue And Back", which is a "steel blue holo with various shapes and sizes of metallic and matte blue, white, silver, navy, light blue and aqua glitters". This is the first polish Jill created and it is gorgeous! It is a limited edition, but is still available in her shop for $10.50. I'm in love with the holo in this polish. It reminds me of water the way its not completely opaque and how it sparkles when the sun hits it. Its absolutely perfect! Formula on this polish was great, I had no issues with it. The glitters all came out of the bottle easily with no fishing needed and laid flat on the nail. I used three coats with HK Girl top coat for my pictures below.

Next up is the hand care portion of this post. The items I have are the Nail & Cuticle Balm in "Sangria White Peach" and two cuticle oils in "Hawaiian Tropic" and "Papaya Mango". First of all the scents of these items are amazing! All of them are so pleasing that even my husband grabs my hands to sniff them after I've used them because "your hands smell so good!". 

The Nail & Cuticle balm is so easy to put in your purse (which is where mine is) and use while you're out and about. A little bit goes a long way with this one so this little container can last you a long time.  The moisturizing aspect of this product is great! I instantly feel like my cuticles are softer when using this, especially right now in the winter time. Its perfect to me. Ingredients include shea butter, jojoba oil, coconut oil, beeswax, sweet almond oil, castor oil, argan oil, vitamin e oil, acai berry botanical extract, grape seed oil, sunflower oil, tea tree oil, and fragrance. 

The cuticle oils are simply amazing as well. I have them in polish bottles, but Jill offers her cuticle oil in convenient roller ball applicators, called glis-stics on her site. My favorite of the two scents that I have is the "Hawaiian Tropic" because it reminds me of summer time, sunscreen, and beaches. Both scents are delicious though, so I'm almost confident that any scent you're able to pick up would be wonderful. This cuticle oil is great! It has helped up my winter time cuticle care a great deal this winter. It absorbs in an average time for a cuticle oil, giving your cuticles and nails plenty of time to soak up all the amazing ingredients this oil has to offer. Seriously, you need it in your life! :) 

Finally, last but not least I want to share with you two products that I have been using now for close to two years and I cannot see myself using any other products to help my mani last as long as these two. This dynamic duo, as it is appropriately called on Jill's site, consists of "Stuck on Blu" and "HK Girl". "Stuck on Blu" is a base coat that helps adhere your polish to your nail to help keep it from chipping and peeling as quickly as it would with out a base coat. I use one coat of this over one coat of Duri rejuvacote and it still works just as great. I top all of my manis with "HK Girl" to provide even more protection against chipping and peeling. It is seriously the best top coat I have ever used! I used to love Seche Vite, but I tossed a half full bottle once I started using this because it is a million times better than Seche. "HK Girl" gives a beautiful shiny finish that does not smudge your nail art or cause any shrinkage. It also dries fairly quickly, a tad longer than seche, but not by much! Its absolutely, hands down, the best. I can't think of much more to say about it, other than, if you haven't tried it, you're really missing out!
