Hello lovelies,

What about some indie swatches today? I have here three pretty Darling Diva polishes that I'm sure you'll enjoy :)

Holiday - multicoloured round glitter in a clear base. I've applied one coat of Holiday over Barielle Banana Drop. Some of the glitters are quite big so I needed to play around with the placement. It applied well and dried fast but I needed an extra coat of topcoat to smooth out the surface.

Material Girl - pink jelly with pink, magenta and silver holographic glitter.So pretty and girly shade! The formula is a bit sheer because of its jelly base so I needed three thicker coats for full coverage. It applied well but I did have to play a little with the glitter placement. I've applied topcoat to smooth out the surface.

Bitchcraft - dark grey jelly base packed with holographic particles and duochrome glitter. I love this polish so much! Not only does it have such a cool name that makes me giggle but it is also absolutely stunning! It might seem like regular holo in the sun but when you get into shade the duochrome glitter (just like in Ozotic Elytra) shows itself and creates an interesting colour. I have applied one coat of Bitchcreaft *giggle* over A England Camelot. The polish by itself is on the sheer side so I would need maybe three thick coats for dark colour. Layering is much better option. It applied well, dried fast and gritty so I'm wearing topcoat as well.

Here's one picture in the shade but it truly doesn't show off the beautiful glitter which changes from purple to blue to orange.

You've probably guessed it by now that Bitchcraft *giggle* is my favourite of the three but they are all beautiful creations! You can buy them at Darling Diva Etsy Store. For updates visit Darling Diva Polish Facebook page.

Hello lovelies,

I have some Barielle swatches that haven't been published yet; I thought you might like to see them...

Blue Cotton Candy - seafoam blue green with silver particles. This is a very unusual shade which has something attractive to it. The formula was just excellent. It applied easily and this is just ONE coat! It dries fast and I have also applied a topcoat to get completely smooth finish.

Life Of The Party - medium pink creme with red undertones. This is a pretty but not one-of-a-kind colour. It had good formula though. The application was easy and two coats were enough for full coverage. It also dried very fast and glossy.

Cherry Blossom Sparkler - pink glitter in a rose pink jelly. I've applied one coat over Life Of The Party. There's enough glitter in the bottle so one coat gives you nice coverage. it applied well but dried a little gritty.

Lilac Jelly Bean - mauve/lilac grey creme. I find this to be very elegant and office friendly colour. It has great formula that applies well and is almost one coater. if you have short nails you could probably get away with one coat but I needed two for perfect finish. The formula was slightly thicker so use thick coats to avoid patching. It dried fast & glossy.

Purple Hearts - blue, purple and holographic glitter in a clear base. It's a pretty glitter topper that I've applied over Lime Crime Parfait Day.It applied well and I liked the amount of glitter. It is not however for wearing alone but for layering.

Stardust - opalescent glitter in a clear base. This little beauty can be applied over any colour to give it a gorgeous opalescent spark. I've layered it over Lime Crime Pastelchio which created quite unique and in real life beautiful combination. It applied well but dried gritty so topcoat is a must.

Pink Diamond - pink glitter in a clear base. There's not much to say about this glitter topper, it's quite simple one-size glitter in a clear base. I've done a gradient over Lime Crime Peaches ♥ Cream.
