This polish is a mix of gold stars, green matte and holographic clovers and black Mickey Mouse heads with gold glitter and gold shimmer in a clear base. There is quite a lot going on with this topper, and because of that (and an application issue) I thought I would try it over two different base colors. Above, I painted two coats over Zoya Tracie and below I painted two coats over Essie The More the Merrier.

Application: This polish was on the thick side and you did have to fish for the bigger glitter pieces (the clovers and the Mickey pieces), but I think the unique glitter pieces make up for it. The final product looks great and heralding from Southern California, anything Disney and I'm a fan! I think I liked the topper slightly more over the light green Tracie polish than over the lime green The More the Merrier polish.

Where to purchase: Sweet Heart Polishes retail for $9-$10 and you can purchase them from her Etsy shop! The Disneyland or Bust collection features a number of glitter toppers featuring the Mickey glitter and some bow glitters as well!

This polish was provided to me for my honest review, and here you have it!

Sweet Heart Polish Clementine

Yes my friends, a company took a chance on me and sent me some samples to review. My very first indies to officially review!

I came home last week, feeling a little defeated and disenchanted (I am covering local school graduations for the umpteenth year in a row) and I went to the mail box. Now since I'm on a no buy, I knew I wasn't getting anything fun in the mail and low and behold there was a box in there with my name on it!

Totally got so excited that a company, any company wanted to take a chance on me!

So today I am reviewing one of the three polishes she provided!

Clementine, from Sweet Heart Polish's Garden Party collection, is a holographic light berry polish with hit of purple holographic glitter mixed in.

In direct sunlight, below, the purple microglitters are harder to spot, but I absolutely love what they do to the holo of this polish. The microglitters are what set this polish apart! So you know what to look for, I took a shot in unnatural light, above, which highlights the purple microglitter.

Overall, this polish was a hit on the nails!!! It's a color I don't have in my collection and the addition of the microglitters make the holo shine the most vibrant violet! Love it!

Application: The polish was on the thicker side, but not unmanageable! Typical for most holo finished polishes. I used three thin coats, two will probably suffice, but there was a little visible nail line so I used an additional coat. There was no dragging and the polish was easy to work with, even with multiple coats. Very gel like in consistency.

Where to purchase: Sweet Heart Polishes retail for $9-$10 and you can purchase them from her Etsy shop! The Garden Party Collection features and array of beautiful floral themed holos that are just beautiful. She also has Mickey Mouse polishes, but more on that in a later post!
