Good morning everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend :)
I own a bunch of indie polishes these days, and I'm rearing up to show them to you sooner than later :)

Today's indie polish comes from Amy at I'm Feeling Nail-venturous. You may have heard about her and her awesome polishes (Floam, you will one day be mine!). The last time she opened her Etsy Shop, I had a bunch of pretties in my cart, and I swore I was working fast! But by the time I checked out, all but 1 was available...that polish was Burst of Blue. At least I was lucky enough to nab 1, right?!?! :)





What can I say? I love it!! Burst of Blue consists of all matte glitters suspended in a clear base, which is a first for me because all of my glitters are shiny! There are small black and blue hex glitters with large white bar and hex glitters. This is perfect for layering (as you see in the first picture) or wearing it on its own by building up your coats. The formula, as with most glitters, is a little on the thick side, but as you can see, I got awesome coverage and I had no problem with getting a even distribution of every glitter type on the nail.

Right now, because of the shortage of polish base, indie polish makers are finding it very difficult to re-stock. But keep an eye on Amy's Facebook and Etsy shop, as well as on Ninja-Polish, where some of Amy's polishes are also sold, to be up to date on when her polishes will be available!

Soooooooooooo.....thoughts?? Do you have any Nail-venturous polishes?

Hi everyone! Hope you all enjoyed your weekend. Mine was great until the skies decided to open up Saturday night and unleash the lightning and rain! Oh well...

I have an awesome polish to show you today. I'm sure you've seen that indie polishes have exploded this year, mostly in part because they're so one of a kind and unlike what the big polish companies are showing us!  Plus it's so awesome seeing regular polish lovers taking it one step further and making their own line of polishes for the love of it!

Today I have "Suess" by Pam of Whimsical Ideas by Pam.




Suess is a 2 coater sky blue jelly polish with medium sized red hex glitter and large silver hex glitter, with the colors inspired by none other than Dr. Suess!  You guys know I love jelly-finish polishes, and this was no exception. The formula was a little thick, but it wasn't unmanageable at all. The bottle is so adorable, each polish coming with a black ribbon tied onto the brush handle! (Just a note: I slide the ribbons off the bottles when using them, just so they don't slip in my hand.)

These pictures show 2 coats of Suess with 1 layer of top coat. I love that this polish is inspired by Dr. Suess, and I think Pam got it spot on with the colors!

Pam has so many great polishes (you'll see more featured here this week, get excited!). For ordering info, visit her Facebook page HERE . Polishes are $10.00/ bottle. To order, email Pam at pea422000@yahoo.com and she will put you in the queue and invoice you.

Soooooo...what do you think? Have you gotten into the indie polish boom? Do you like Suess?
