Glisten & Glow Aye Spy Dubloons & Parrot's Parlay

* I received the following products in exchange for my honest review.

I have two of the polishes from Glisten & Glow's Pirate's Booty Collection. I received these polishes at the Cocktails & Colors party at Comsoprof this year. This is a 6 piece collection and you can view the full collection here.

Aye Spy Dubloons
Aye Spy Doubloons is all about the gleaming bounty from the elemental gold base, the gold and copper holo galaxy microglitters, gold shimmer, and larger gold flakes.

Parrot's Parlay
Parrot's Parlay is a warm amaranth pink base that is accentuated with hot pink and purple sparks and a dusting of gold shimmer.

Collection: Glisten & Glow Pirate's Booty Collection August 2016

Colors: I have to say Aye Spy Dubloons is one of the best gold holo polishes I've ever owned. I love the dimension from the added flakies, shimmer, and micro-glitter. It's anything but an ordinary gold holo! Parrot's Parlay is nice pinky red holo. The holo is strong. This isn't my favorite shade I wish it were a bit richer in tone.

Formula: These both had excellent flawless formulas. I used 2 coats for each.

Price: These are $13.00 each on the Glisten & Glow website.

Overall: These are nice strong holo colors. I'm head over heels for Aye Spy Dubloons. It's such an amazing gold holographic polish. I love the formulas on these too.

Glisten & Glow Silver Streak and Tequila Sunrise

*The following products were provided in exchange for my honest review. 

The next few weeks are going to be fun for you all and myself! I have so many indie polishes to share with you I received in Las Vegas during Cosmoprof. I am so excited! I am so overwhelmed by the indie market, that I find it difficult to know what to buy when I have the money. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to try so many brands and to have met so many great makers a few weeks ago. This experience has definitely helped me pinpoint brands I know I will become a loyal fan and custom of in the future.

The first indies I have to review for you are from Glisten & Glow! These polishes are from the recently released Cocktails Anyone? collection.

Silver Streak
Silver Streak is a silver holographic.

Tequila Sunrise
Tequila Sunrise is orange-red holographic.

Collection: Glisten & Glow Cocktails Anyone? Collection Summer 2015

Colors: These are holos are intense. I'm talking blinding intense, but I'm completely OK with being blinded by a holographic nail polish. What I love about Silver Streak is that it's not your typical silver holo. I found this silver has hint of taupe to it which makes it stand out compared to other silver holos. Tequila Sunrise is also an awesomely pigmented.

Formula: The formula on both of these were really easy to use and nice. I used 3 coats on Silver Streak and 2 coats on Tequila Sunrise.

Price: These are $14.00 individually and $105.00 for the entire 8 polish collection on the Glisten & Glow website.

Overall: I was really impressed with the quality of these holos. The intensity is great and they both have a nice formula to match!
