I answered Ajevie's call for swatchers for her new Dolly's Polishes and she sent me 4 minis!
First of all, check out how they were packaged..the little touches makes such a difference:
The colours I got are:
I have to say, I love these polishes. They last me as long as my good mainstream polishes. Queen Agnes is my favourite nail polish out of the 4. Glitter polishes are often bumpy without a top coat, but this is ok on its own. It's like Cult Nails' glitter polishes, where they dry into a smooth finish.
They also dry in about 2 minutes (I timed it..longest was 2 min 19 seconds), so it's great for busy people.
I'm also now a fan of glow-in-the-dark polishes thanks to Dolly's. I've only tried 2 other glow-in-the-dark nail polishes (one indie, one mainstream) and they don't work as well as these. I've actually given up on glow-in-the-dark nail polishes and decided that they only get charged under UV lamps, but these converted me. They get charged even using artificial light! I got so excited! Also, the glow-in-the-dark polish has this awesome, sandy matte texture that I love, so I didn't use a top coat for these swatches.
I did find the formula of Sugar Skull slightly hard to work with, but I think it's more of a white nail polish thing.
So here are the swatches:
The Ghost Ship actually comes with skull glitters, but I couldn't get them out. Angi mentioned she'll be including rollerballs, so this may be fixed.
