Favorite Indies

Last night I decided to make a couple end of year posts on who my favorite indie makers are and my favorite indie polishes. I was going to do top 5, and I started making my list. Which then grew to 10, then 15, and I just couldn't narrow it down. There are so many great indie makers out there, and as I have had even the briefest conversations with quite a few of them, I see them as the people behind the brand and that made it so much harder to stick to a top 5. So what I decided to do was list my favorite polish from each brand that I own (and for some tell what my favorite collection was if I have one). I am not putting these in any order other than simply by how many of their polishes I own. I am breaking this down into 8 brands over 4 different posts, for the next 4 days. As I only got into collecting polish really early this year, and indies not long after, these have all been purchased this year even if they were released before that. So lets see what indies I have shall we?

Sat-ART-Day - 50s

Todays theme is the 50s. I really like this one, I actually had a few ideas this time! I chose to do a poodle skirt. I used 3 coats of Color Club Blushing Rose, stamped BM04 with Sally Hansen White On and used my Kiss nail art paint. Not the most original idea I admit, I have seen this done before, but I wanted something I could do a little bit of freehand with. Here it is:

Definitely not the worst I have ever done, but I do think I should have used either a darker/brighter pink for the base or stamped/free handed with black. The pale pink and white are both just too light, though you can see it better in person.

Here are the rest of the lovely ladies taking part!

Color Club Metamorphasis

Today I have a post for you with a color I wore almost 2 months ago and thought I posted but didn't! My first Color Club is Metamorphasis from the Take Wing collection. I don't remember having any issues with the formula, and I'm pretty sure this is only 2 coats. Its a very pretty blue/green? with glass fleck (I think?). Since I can't remember much about it, I am taking that as a good thing! Here is the picture I have:

Nail Mail

Today was the last day of school, woohoo! I am now off work until the end of August. Looking forward to doing a lot of reading and making a dent in all my untried polishes. This past week I got in quite a few polishes I ordered, and am still waiting on quite a few more. Lets take a look shall we?
