Hello readers! Today I have a new to me brand to share with you all, and that's DazzleGlaze. I was contacted by Candace, the creator to swatch her new collection for you all to see and I was happy to help. The first thing I noticed when opening up these polishes was the super pretty logo. I love it. So Candace sent me the Sailing Excursion Collection which will be releasing Saturday August 29th in two different locations. http://www.dazzleglaze.com and also etsy.com/shop/radiantlyvivacious . This polishes have thinner brushes than most of the indies are using lately, but I had forgotten how much control I have with a smaller brush. I didn't have to do too much clean up on any of these because of that. Thinner brushes are still okay in my book! Let's not delay any further though, let's get to the polish!
First up is, "Captain of the Catamaran", which is a beautiful red shimmer polish. I love this red! Its going to be perfect to use in some Christmas time mani's. The formula on this was really easy to work with and I love the way this one looks on the nail. I used two coats with top coat for my pictures.

Next up is "Sea Shanty", which is a teal shimmer polish. This one was my favorite because I love teal. Its a mermaid thing ;-) Formula on this one was also good and easy to work with. I used two coats with top coat for my pictures.

Next up is "Blue Sky Marina", which is a light sky blue creme polish. There wasn't anything extra to this polish, just a really nice sky blue creme polish with a good formula, also easy to apply. I used two coats with top coat for my pictures.

The next polish is "North Star Compass", which is a blue crème polish with blue to purple shifting shimmer. The shimmer in this polish was really hard to capture as it didn't translate to the nail like I had hoped from looking at the bottle. I took a bottle macro so you could see it. The formula on this one was good as well and also easy to work with. I used three coats with top coat for my pictures.

The last polish I have to share with you today is "Between Wind & Water", which is a white crème polish that has micro flakies in it. You can see the flakies in the bottle, but again, they didn't translate as well to the nail as I had hoped so I took another bottle macro to show them to you. This being a white polish, I did still need three coats to get a full coverage without any streaks. That's not a deal breaker for me though because most of the time I use three coats on a lot of my polishes. Its a very nice polish that could be used for a great base for nail art.... which I totally had planned to do some, but let's face it, with a four month old that's hard to do. Especially one who has wanted to be held constantly the last week, which isn't his normal lol. Again, three coats with top coat for my pictures.

So all in all, my first impression of DazzleGlaze is great. Formulas on all of these polishes were consistent and easy to apply. I have no complaints other than the last two polishes being harder to capture the added sparkles.
