All That Glitters Bitter Hearts Swatches

Hello!

It's been super windy and cold today...pretty nasty weather. I have some bright, glittery indies to share with you that have definitely been a bright spot in this gross day. :) They come from All That Glitters, which is one of the very first shops I purchased from last year when indies were just starting to catch on! Kirsten made an awesome collection for Valentine's day with 12 polishes. Even though Valentine's has already passed, these polishes are appropriate for any time of year. I have 6 of them to show you here, so let's get started!

This is Just Lust. This is 2 coats over China Glaze Beach Cruise-r which is a perfect match for the sheer pink base this has. I am a little reminded of OPI I Lily Love You by this.


Next is Not 2Nite. I love this one! This is pretty sheer...I did 4 coats alone. But I like the overall effect. You can totally layer this for a more opaque look too. All the glitters came out nicely....no fishing.


I Luv Me...I was pretty impressed by this one's formula. Most milky glitters take a bit to build full coverage and I almost had it in one coat! Not to mention this polish is super pretty.


Outta Here is a cool one. It's got tiny matte glitters beside the black and white combo. This is one coat over China Glaze Beach Cruise-r again. This polish would definitely benefit from a layer of topcoat to smooth everything out.


Dream On is a peachy pink nude base with charcoal and gold holo glitters in it. This one is sheer as well, but if you are going for a more low key look, it's perfect. I like the mix of something fun in an otherwise simple polish that's not too over the top.


And finally, Heart Burn. I did 3 coats on it's own. You probably see the hearts in the bottle...I tried really hard to get some out and it just wasn't happening. Regardless, I like what did come out of the bottle and onto my nails! haha



And that's it! I really loved all of these polishes for different reasons and think they are definitely worth checking out, even if Valentine's Day is over. :)

All That Glitters Holiday, Celebrate Collection Swatches and Review!

It's FRIDAY! Hallelujah! I am getting my hair cut and colored today and I am so ready for some me time AKA a break from my crazy 2 year old!!

I've got a fun bunch of polish to show you all today. All That Glitters has created a fantastic holiday collection called Holiday, Celebrate! There's 9 polishes and I have them all to show you today:



First, is Goody Gumdrops. I layered one coat over Zoya Areej. The glitters spread very easily and look so good together.



Autumn Bomb is exactly what it sounds like! I layered one coat over China Glaze Trendsetter.



 Next, is Lights in the Night. One easy coat over China Glaze Ride the Waves. I placed the stars but they came out of the bottle without too much effort. This has a fine shimmer in the base...very pretty.



Spottie Dottie Holiday is one of my faves. All That Glitters has a few different versions of Spottie Dotties and the combo of bar and hex glitters can't be beat! Definitely my favorite type of glitter. The bars were a little curly but I was able to lay them flat without any issues. I layered one coat over Essie Penny Talk.



I love this next one! Eggnog Wasted just makes me happy. I layered one super easy coat over Color Club Pretty in Platinum.



 Cool Yule is perfect for the winter season. I layered one coat over Sally Hansen Insta Dri
Blue Me Away.



What the Elf? is a funky one (in a good way!). I layered one coat over Zoya Monica.



 Pinch of Grinch is pretty awesome. It's got a pearly base with sort of a blue flash. I layered one coat over China Glaze Holly Day to try and bring that out but my pics aren't really showing it. I was really impressed with the formula of this one because I didn't have to try and place the stars... they came out on their own! That's a first. :)



And finally, we have Killer Icicle! I layered one coat over China Glaze Elephant Walk. The iridescent glitters are really fun in this.



Since this was a super long (but awesome!) post, here's a recap:



Tell me your favorites!

All That Glitters Very Peacock- ish

Hello everybody! 

Today I am showing you a swatch of a polish from Etsy seller All That Glitters. I was lucky enough to get in on most of the crazy popular Etsy sellers polish before they really exploded...but there are now more cropping up lately that I am having a harder time getting my hands on. :(

Anyway, this is Very Peacock-ish. To me, this is reminded me more of a mermaid, but this is only one coat. I have been hesitant to do more than that with glitters because I hate removal, but I think with this one I should have sucked it up and done it justice with a few more coats!


I used a coat of NYX Soft Teal as underwear even though this polish has a sheer blue base. Also, this polish has the bigger glitters that you have to work harder to place, but it's not that big of a deal.



If you haven't checked out All That Glitters yet, you should! There are some really cool polishes in her shop! What do you think about Very Peacock-ish?
