Jindie Nails: Bells & Whistles, Princess Breath and Taste Like Snozberries Swatches and Review

Hi girls and boys. Today I have 3 lovely polishes from Jindie Nails. I'm just going to jump right on into the review now, I hope you enjoy! 


Bells & Whistles...
... "a shimmery lilac colored base that has some linear holo pigment and color shift to it as well. It has holographic pink and silver butterflies, multiple shades and shapes of silver, purple and color shifting, holo and iridescent glitters."


Left: 3 coats no undies. Right: 2 coats over SC Sweet Tooth.

All photos of Bells & Whistles are shown as 2 coats over 1 coat Sinful Colors Sweet Tooth topped with  coat NPB Glitter Food and 1 coat Mega Shine. My pinkie is 3 coats B&W no undies.



This shimmery glitter bomb is quite stunning. 3 coats gave it almost the same appearance as the rest of the fingers which were over undies. It still had vnl but it was barely there. This is a lovely shade for spring, even though it was originally released as part of Jen's winter collection. The butterflies were not as hard to get out of the bottle as I thought they would be, I do actually have one on my index finger but I am realizing now that the butterfly isn't visible in the pictures, I think it got covered by the other glitters, oops. The hearts proved to be a bit more challenging to get out, I kept trying for one and I would get lots of butterflies! LOL. Larger glitters mixed with smaller ones tend to be more difficult to get out, it's just expected. Jen does state that she didn't intend for them to be on each nail, rather as an accent on 1-2 nails so please keep this in mind. The formula is perfect and  the glitters lay nice and flat! I'm really loving the combination of colors in this, so subtle and feminine! I love the shimmer and how it kind of glows too! 


Princess Breath...
... "a pale green crelly base (really more of a cream base that is just right so that the glitter layers show through perfectly). This one has the rare large magenta dots. It also has the medium magenta dots, lime green and teal holo glitters, deep purple metallic glitter, satin matte teal glitters in several sizes of hex."



All photos of Princess Breath are shown as 2 coats topped with 1 coat Glitter Food and one coat of Mega Shine.



The lime green glitters did it for me on this one! Mixed with the green base and the other colors of glitters it really pulls this combination together! The formula was, again, excellent! the glitters that you see all cam out with out coaxing. The larger hexes were fewer than the rest but again, you don't want t ton of them on the nail so it was perfect that they came out as few.If you prefer to have more then a little work may be required but not too much. I love that this is more of a cream than an actual crelly base, therefore giving it more coverage! Also a perfect color for spring! 



Taste Like Snozberries...
..."a light neon purple/magenta crelly based polish that has the rare large magenta dots, plus medium magenta dots plus extra large, large, medium and smaller silver holo hex. This one also has bright blue, deep purple metallic and magenta smaller glitters."



All photos of Taste Like Snozberries are shown as 3 coats topped with 1 coat of  Glitter Food and 1 coat of  Mega Shine.



Taste Like Snozberries is my favorite of this bunch. I honestly didn't think I was going to like it much, I didn't think it looked like anything special in the bottle. After applying it and seeing it on my hand I fell in love! The purple is much more neon IRL than it appears in the bottle and in these photographs, The color is actually more along the line of how the magenta glitters look and those are a bit darker IRL. I could have saturated one of the photos to show you but I was afraid my hands would get too orange and distract you from the polish! LOL I love the base color and how it makes the glitters really pop! This is a definite MUST HAVE! The formula was excellent, always with Jindie polishes, I used 3 coats to get full opacity and to assure that the color was vivid enough. Man I LOVE this color!
