Different Dimension Swatches and Review Part I

Hello polish lovers!

I have an indie review for you guys today! I have worked with Different Dimension before (you can see those posts *here*), and I am happy to have the chance to do so again. I love the variety that Missi comes up with in her creations. She has a variety of polish finishes, and today I have some awesome holos to share! 

You will have to excuse my swollen pregnant fingers...I am hoping I can drink enough water to bring it down some!

Anyway, first up we have Stronger. This is a pale blue holo with a blue flash/sparkle to it in 3 coats. Such a cool twist to add to a holo!

See the blue sparkle? Love!

Next, is Black Dahlia. This is a purple-y charcoal holo with some iridescent color shifting glitters throughout as well as a purple shimmer/flash in 3 coats. Very complex!

 And finally, we have Wide Awake. This is a pale pink/almost a light lavender holo with a bright pink holo/sparkle to it. 3 coats.

Again, you can see the pink sparkle best in this photo:

I am a fan of these, for sure. They aren't your typical holos!

Tell me your thoughts on these!

Keep an eye out for Part II of my Different Dimension review soon!

Different Dimension Cuticle Balm Review

Hey readers!

I've got something a little different to show you today...some cuticle balm from Different Dimension! We all know that healthy, tidy cuticles make a big difference and these cuticle balms make that easy. 

I think my favorite thing about these is that they come in a twist up tube (similar to lip balm). I like the tube for the portability factor. I keep one of these in my purse and pull it out when I'm bored or whenever I happen to need it on the go and it's the perfect no-mess solution for moisturized cuticles.

As for the scented aspect of these, I am a fan! My favorite is Watermelon because I love fruity scents. This is actually my first time using a cuticle balm/cream that's nicely scented and not just generic. 

This cuticle balm probably isn't for someone with super dry and cracked cuticles, but it definitely gets the job done for moderate dryness and with regular use it's a great option! I also really like that the formula isn't greasy; so you aren't left with an excess of junk that you have to wipe off.

Have any of you tried these cuticle balms from Different Dimension?

Different Dimension Part II Swatches

Happy Friday guys!

I've got the second part to the Different Dimension post from Wednesday for you today. Get ready for more glittery goodness!

On Wednesdays We Wear PINK is a fun one! Although, I'm not sure where that random purple glitter on my middle finger came from. haha I layered one easy coat over Color Club Yum Gum.

Rainbows and Butterflies is so whimsical with it's butterfly shaped glitter. This is 2 coats over Revlon Aloof.

I can't stop looking this macro! So pretty!

This is Selene. The shimmer in this is to die for. I did one coat over Zoya Monica, but this could go over literally anything...love that versatility!

Next is Hanna. This can be a full coverage glitter in 3 coats. Here though, I decided to layer one coat over Sally Hansen Ruby Rush.

One of my favorite combos...here is 2 coats of Gumdrops over Sweet Polish from Born Pretty. I love how awesome the 2 look together!

And finally, this is Rock, Paper, Scissor, Lizard, Spock. I layered one coat over Orly Frisky. I like the mixture of matte and metallic glitters this one has.

Here are the bottle shots of all the pretties I have shown you this week...a little something for everyone, I think!

And an overview of the swatches...you can find more about the other half in this post.

Different Dimension Swatches Part I

Hey readers!

I hope you are having a fab Wednesday. Halfway through the week! 

I've got some eye candy from Different Dimension for you today! I have been admiring this shop from afar for a while now and am so happy to finally get the chance to try some out as well as share them with you. I will be featuring Different Dimension's products in 3 separate posts so it doesn't get too overwhelming (in a good way! haha).

Ok! First, is Sparkles Like Edward: a sheer but buildable shimmery base with the cutest combo of small glitters. I did one effortles coat over Essie Navigate Her. This polish will only be around until 11.16, which is the release date of the final Twilight movie...you don't want to miss out on this one!

Shimmery bases like this are my weakness!

Warm Fuzzies is the perfect holo for fall! It's milk chocolate brown. I was able to get full coverage in 2 coats. Here it is in indirect light:

And direct light:

Here, we have My Bear. This is also a milk chocolate-y base but with shimmer as well as bronze and orange glitters. Another great choice for the season! I pretty much had full coverage in one coat with this one which is awesome.

So besides shimmery bases I love cool toned teal colors, so Un-Teal We Meet Again is an automatic fave of mine! And the formula was perfect. This is one coat of it over Kleancolor Pastel Teal. No placing extra glitter or anything...if only all glitters could apply like this one!

Next is Spencer. This is made up of superfine glitters in a slightly red tinted base. This can be layered in one coat or full coverage in 3, which is what I did here. I love the effect the holo glitters in this polish have. Definitely a standout!

And finally, we have Fall Me Maybe...cute name! I layered one coat over Banana Republic Plum Pudding. This one looks to have dried a little bumpy, but that's nothing that some Gelous can't fix! I love this color combo...obviously perfect for fall. :)

Here's a little recap of my swatches:

Do you have any favorites from the group?
