Sloppy Stripes

Something that has become apparent to me in the last few manis is that I realy need to work on my stripes. They are uneven and wonky and I'd really like to do better.

I started with an accent of 2 coats of Jindie Nails Talk Nerdy 2 Me, and 3 coats Picture Polish Twinkle which I striped with a dark blue striper and a hot pink striper and topped off with Sally Hansen Deb-u-tint.

As mentioned in the title I feel the stripes are a bit sloppy. I am also not sure of the colors together altogether this look left me blah.

Heat Stroke on Spring Street

I just got my order of Jindie Nails goodies and a package from my Adopt a Pal exchange group. I am super excited! 
I decided to use one polish from each package for my manicure. I started with 2 coats of NYC in Spring Street that my lovely pal sent, I added 2 coats of  Jindie Nails Heat Stroke, then topped it off with Seche Vite. 
Spring Street is a lovely bright red-orange colour and Heat Stroke a clear based glitter polish with   neon green UV reactive glitter, neon yellow and neon hot orange glitter. They match very well with each other.

 I wasn't planning to do any Nail art this was very pretty on its own but I was Halloween inspired.  I was looking at my nail plates and I ran across BM-305 again the plate with the little devils and I though, how perfect. I decided to add some flames first I used Stripe Rite Hot Orange, Red and Yellow to make flames then I stamped the little devils using Sinful Colors Black on Black. On my left hand I used the Black striper to fill in as my stamping didn't quite work out on that hand. I then added a bit more flame :)

I am really very happy with the way this turned out it is super cute. I like that it looks good on both hands Some times I'll do something  I love on one hand but then can't duplicate it on the other so I am pleased.

Jindie Nails - Zomboy

I don't know about you all but when I order or buy polish it is almost always several bottles at a time. I am almost same by eye make up  my stock of liners, shadows and mascara is almost as bad as my polishes.

I got this polish from Jindie Nails at the same time I bought Check the Candy. I have swatched all of the polishes I have because I'm anal and that's the first thing I do when I get a new polish. I swatch it on a sticker then stick it to the bottle. But I don't really like to blog about the polish until I've worn it.  Ordinarily I'd just put this in the queue but since it is an Indie polish I try to post those right away because if you do read about it I hope it's still available to buy. 

Zomboy polish went on like a dream and spread evenly like all of the polishes I have gotten from Jindie Nails. This is important because I've a lot of glitter polishes and several indie polishes and not all are equal. I don't want to dab or fish or have to shake the bottle every other nail to get even coverage. It is nail polish and as such should go on in same way as any other nail polish. End rant on the way polish should work 

This is 2 medum -thick coats of Zomboy with Seche Vite over the top.

Now Zomboy is a beautiful purple polish with pink and blue glitter, the pics really do not do it justice. One thing I love so far about this polish and Check the candy is the polish looks exactly like what you see in the bottle which is awesome so no surprises. I did stamp on Zomboy as well and had no problems with stamping over it either but I forgot to take a pic of that. So far I'm loving this company, and I have been impressed with every polish I have gotten from them so far which is saying a bit actually because I'm a bit picky. 

Jindie Nails-Check the Candy

First I just have to say I love to try new polish. If its name brand polish of a major manufacturer I will rarely pay over 5$ for it and then only if I just love it because I'm way cheap. However Indie polishes I'll pay double maybe more if I love it.  I'd rather support an individual's creativity than a corporation. Yet sometimes I'm hesitant some times It looks really great, but then you get it and you are totally bummed. I'm happy to say not this time. I can not tell you just how much I love love love this polish. I saw the swatches and to be honest I was so skeptical. But its beautiful and better yet you don't have to shake it or manipulate it to death to get it to spread the glitter evenly. What Polish you ask Well its Jindie Nail's Check the Candy and its fabulous.

This is 2 coats of Check the Candy layered over 2 coats of Princessa White then topped with some Seche Vite and a cute little Fimo Birdie on my thumb and ring fingers.

  

Again Pardon the cuticles and my dry hands Should have lotion-ed up first :)

Now I can say a lot of people who have longer or wider nails do not have the problem I sometimes have with nail polishes. Because the surface area of my nails is so small even when I grow them out a bit Glitters especially large glitters just don't spread well. I also have very curved nails so large glitters tend to not lay well on my nails :( *sniff* *sniff* so sad.
