PrettyPots -

 PrettyPots polish was new to me. But seeing swatches of Orange Chiffon made me jump on the PrettyPots train! A stunning coral with holo linear sparkle godness!

And can we have a moment of drooling over the packaging!? How flipping kool is that?!
So.Flipping.kool!!


 Goes on like a dream, only takes two coats to get a good coverage, smooth and problemfree.
 Slight green shimmer, see? I have such a crush on contrasting shimmer. This polish is way more complex than my cam can capture sadly.

 Hard to capture the holo effect but take a closer look at that pinky!! Wooo!

Kool thing with this polish is that is has a holo effect even when it's not in direct sunlight. Thats bad ass.


I will mos def buy more from this brand, after all I am an addict, right?

You can get you hands on this via NorwayNails and using SVARTEBLOGGEN10 gives you 10% off.
3free and cruelty free!

Indigo Bananas - You Get Nothing!




Another kick ass creation from Indigo Bananas.
You Get Nothing! is a dark, stone grey linear holo, with blue & dark red glitter. This looks kool in the bottle but freaking amazing on the nails.

You Get Nothing! is a dream to apply, smooth, evens out nicely and no need for fishing. 2-3 coats is needed depending on your preference. I have 3 on for the pics. I did use Seche Vite as top coat and can't see any dulling of the holo effect.
Truly unique.

Been wearing this for 3 days and only have slight tip wear. Wear time is great.
When applying this, do think coats and wait a little between them to let the glitter set. I added one coat of SV and I can't feel any texture.
Blurry to show off holo goodness.

I really cant rave enough about this brand. If I had to compare her polishes it would have to be Nerd Lacquer. This brand has some of that same unusual color combinations and interesting design ideas.
I really see Indigo Bananas being a bright star on the indie heaven. Hopefully she won't be torn down by all the catty psychos in this community. It's nail polish girls. Chillpill!

You Get Nothing! the mini contains 8ml and costs 68 nok. they are all 3free Shipping is 40,- for the first polish and then 10,- for the added ones after that.
So kool.

Indigo Bananas - Joy Forever.



Indigo Bananas was for me an unknown indie until the evil girls over at PAA Scandinavia lured me into checking out the brand.

I ordered 3 mini bottles and they are a really good size at 8ml, vegan and 3free.

First one I will show you is Joy Forever.
A really kool looking emerald green linear holo with intense red glitter.
I recommend two think coats, let the first dry a little before adding a second coat. This needs a top coat to come alive as it dries semi mat/dull. With top coat the holo really is intense and the emerald green is so vibrant. With the red, almost flame like glitter, it's a very atmospheric polish!

This is a two coater, the brush is nice to work with, the polish it self layers nicely and there is no need for fishing red glitter. I LOVE polish with contrasting colored glitter so this is so me.

And a word about the customer service: Outstanding. She shipped the same day, just like half an hour after I ordered, and it took maybe a week to get the polishes. She is übernice via mail and I do recommend the brand to everyone.


1 mini 8ml costs 46 nok, 40nok shipping for the first bottle and 10nok for the second. For 3 I paid 180 nok with shipping.  Buy via her Etsy.

Polish pr0n!
Just look at that red!

Naild'it indies



Har en beksort dag, dette blir lite tekst og mye bilder.

To outstanding lakker fra Naild'it, nok et indiemerke som fortjener all oppmerksomhet.

Foggy Pond er av en annen verden. Dette er uten tvil en av mine top 10 indies nå. Den består av matt glitter. Gul, sort, turkis og litt større burgunder firkantet matt glitter med tekstur. Sammen skaper alt dette en virkelig stunning lakk. Jeg har ett strøk over Butter London Wallis. Jeg vil ikke ta av denne komboen før jeg må. Holy shit.

Påføring er en drøm, det holder med ett strøk for effekt, den trenger 2-3 for å dekke alene uten undies.
Som matt glitter generelt, tørker denne matt og trenger et par generøse strøk med top coat.




Den neste lakken fra Naild'it er CandyCorn. Jeg elsker alt som har med Halloween å gjøre. Alt. vi går totalt berskerker og lesser ned kåken med pynt og stæsj og har det oppe i en uke. Minst.
CandyCorn er en lakk jeg ikke ville ha tenkt over var noe for meg, om det ikke var for en stunning combo imfeelingnail-venturous hadde på sine swatches. DIES.
Denne lakken består av gull, orange, hvitt, hvitt bar glitter, mindre sort glitter og disse store runde sorte som er så unike. Aldri sett noe lignende. Digger de.


Påføring god, denne er så full i glitter at den nesten dekker for mye på ett strøk! Luxusproblem ;) Denne dekker på to strøk alene, og trenger generøst med top coat. Du må fiske etter de store sorte glitterene, det er det eneste kjipe. Men det er så jævlig verdt det.



På bildene har jeg ett strøk CandyCorn over Opi Skull and Glossbones for å gjenskape imfeelingnail-venturous sin stunning combo.

Du kan kjøpe begge via Naild'it via hennes butikk på Etsy.
Du må følge meg via facebook o.l for å vite når re-stocks skjer.

Stalk that shit!
