A Rhyming Dictionary Shaggy Man


This is the second of the trio of Oz inspired polishes made by A Rhyming Dictionary; Shaggy Man!
Shaggy Man is a clear based glitter bomb: micro fine emerald green glitter, large and small emerald, gold, copper and red hexes, all mixed in with red, gold, and green squares. 
It’s a gorgeous polish, and I can’t wait to wear it come winter time, it seems like a perfect Christmas/holiday glitter. I did have the slightest problem with the larger squares taco-ing but it wasn’t anything that I haven’t seen before or couldn’t deal with. I did end up sponging this one, as I only wanted it on my tips, but it does pull out very easy from the bottle, I didn’t have to fish out anything. I used Gosh Miss Grey as a base.

A Rhyming Dictionary Kaliko



I have a new indie collection to show you all!!
A Rhyming Dictionary has mixed up a collection entirely based on the Oz books by L. Frank Baum. The entire Oz collection is just beautiful and I’m so excited about them.
This is the first of three I’ll be showing you; say hello to Kaliko! It has multiple shard glitters in blurple, black, white, and silver. I’m wearing it over SpaRitual’s Aurum which was part of the gold collection. I got so many complements while wearing it, even had someone ask if they could borrow it!! 
Formula on this one was great, I had no trouble getting full coverage from the brush with a few strokes. I did do my ring finger with the sponge method to see if that was any better but it seemed to be worse, the sponge picked up the shards but didn’t let them go. You’re better off using the brush on this glitter. Wear time was good, and it wasn’t too difficult to take off like some glitters (I’m looking at you DL Happy Birthday).

Twisted Fantasy Polish One Bad Apple



I have a new indie polish to show off today!!

This is from Twisted Fantasy Polish called One Bad Apple over OPI Funky Dunkey. It's got a massive amount of tiny green micro glitter, with small and medium black hex glitters and an assortment of white square and hex glitters.

It's completely opaque after three coats, but I prefer it on top of another color, it makes me pop more for me. I really do like it, and I've gotten a lot of complements on it this week.

Here is a close up for you:
