Star Storm from Indie Polish is a mix of matte white glitter with black stars in a clear base. I love polishes like these that can basically be worn over any colour. The stars did need to be fished from the bottle, but other then that there were no problems with application. Shown is two coats of Star Storm over Duri One Night Only. A smoothing top coat is recommended.
For information on Indie Polish, please follow on facebook. Page is always updating. You can also find the shop on etsy. There are always new polishes being added. All polish is 3 free and cruelty free. Shipping is available worldwide.

Summer Melon by F4 Polish
Happy Labour Day to those that have this holiday. For me, that means kids are back to school tomorrow. Double yeah!!! I know, bad mom, but what can I say. More time for blogging :)
Summer Melon is a clear based glitter topper. Full of micro and small pink and green glitter with some larger black hexagons. Really does scream watermelon! I have two coats of Summer Melon over Pure Ice Free Spirit. No dabbing required the formula had great coverage.
All information about F4 Polish can be found on facebook. Their etsy shop is on vacation, but the link is here. Because it is in vacation mode, I can't comment on whether this polish is still available. My apologies. Have a great day :)

Sweetcheeks Polish Jetta swatch and review
Hello everyone! Today I have Sweetcheeks Polish Jetta from the Jem and the Holograms collection to show you.
Jetta is a clear base glitter topper with mainly black micro bar glitter and white and iridescent small hexagon glitter. The colours are based on her hair, saxophone, and her polka dot outfit! Because of the small size of the bar glitter, I had no issues with any sticking up. No picking off either, which I always seem to do with the larger ones! Photos show one coat of Jetta over China Glaze Make Some Noise. Great coverage in one coat. Perfectly smooth with top coat.
This is the perfect polish to wear over a bright colour! Any bright colour. The Sweetcheeks Polish store can be found HERE. You can also follow on FACEBOOK for any updates. I also need to mention that I got to meet Steph (the creator) in person! Great person to go along with a great product! I hope you all check out her other polishes that she has available. As always, thanks for stopping by!

Dollish Polish This Pop, Rocks!
Today I have another Dollish Polish from the new Candy line.
THIS POP, ROCKS! is a clear based glitter topper. Contains purple micro glitter, small pink hexagons, medium neon green hexagons, black diamonds, and lavender stars. The stars were difficult. I managed one on my nail. I have this layered over Essie Turquiose & Caicos. I'll have to admit, I had a hard time deciding what to layer this over! So many possibilities. Photos are 2 coats of This Pop, Rocks! over the base colour.

Sweetcheeks Polish - Jem, Synergy and Stormer
Hello my lovelies! I am very excited to share with you today a brand spankin' new indie polish maker! Please welcome $weetcheeks Polish to the wonderful world of indie polishes.
Steph, the creator, started making polish for friends and family and has decided to branch out into sales. All polish is big 3 free and cruelty free. Polish is hand poured so you can expect some slight variation between batches. Bottles will retail for $10.00 each and shipping is available everywhere. $1.00 from each bottle sold will be donated to the Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue. (VOKRA) If you are interested in more information on this organization you can check out their Facebook page!
The line is set to go live on March 15th in $weetcheeks Etsy Store. Make sure to follow along on Facebook for updates and info as it becomes available.
INTRODUCING THE FIRST 3 POLISHES FROM $WEETCHEEKS POLISH JEM GLAMOUR & GLITTER COLLECTION. I have Jem, Synergy, and Stormer to review for you. The line will consist of 7 polishes in total. (I dare you not to get the theme song stuck in your head) Yes, all polishes are based on the cartoon from the 80's. Yes I remember this well. Yes, I am dating myself! On to the polish...
First we have JEM, (the leader of the holograms). Jem has a clear shimmer base with deep pink and silver hexes, along with a few iridescent squares. Applied smoothly with no issues. Definitely not as thick as a lot of clear based glitters. This is by no means a glitter bomb. Much more subtle then it appears in the bottle. I have 1 coat layered over Cult Nails Tempest.

The Jem you (may) remember!
Up next is SYNERGY, (the computer that could project the holograms). Synergy is a silver holographic top coat. I have it layered over black to show off all the colour shifts in this. (there are a lot)! Photos shown are 1 coat of Synergy over NYX Black. Great coverage with 1 coat. A holo top coat is a must for this collection, don't you think!
Synergy the computer.
STORMER, (the nice misfit) is another clear shimmer base polish. Contains various size shredded glitter in icy blue and magenta, as well as micro glitter. Again, great application. The base isn't too thick. Photos shown are 1 coat over base. The first pic shows it layered over Julep Morgan. I decided I didn't like it over the purple, so I then layered it over white. It shows up much better this way. Could easily be layered over just about anything!

Overall I really liked all 3 of these polishes. No problems with formula or application on any of them.
Remember to check out the $weetcheeks Polish store HERE and Facebook HERE. I can't wait to see what the rest of the collection looks like!
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed the post!
And in case you don't have the theme song stuck in your brain yet, here ya go! (you're welcome)
***Update: More glitter is being added to the two glitter polishes, Jem and Stormer. Not enough that it will be a glitter bomb, just a bit more for better coverage. ***

KBShimmer Iris My Case and Pastel Me More
These polishes are from the KBShimmer spring collection. Polish can be purchased from their site if you are in the U.S. or if you are international you can order through Harlow & Co.
IRIS MY CASE is a medium purple crelly with micro, small and medium glitter in white, blue, periwinkle, pink and purple. Polish applied like a dream. Photos are 3 coats of Iris My Case. Just a regular top coat is all that is needed. This is not a chunky glitter polish that needs smoothing.
PASTEL ME MORE is a clear based glitter topper with micro, small, and medium hex glitter. Various pastel shades. The glitter is dense and photos show 1 coat over various base colours. This polish does require a thicker coat or two of top coat to smooth.
Base colours used. Left to right. China Glaze Mimosas Before Mani's. OPI My Vampire is Buff, China Glaze Elephant Walk, OPI Dating A Royal.
I really loved both of these. Great formula on both. No problems with application.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed these polishes.
