Jaded Nail Co. Swatches!

Hello Everyone!!  I hope you are all doing great!  I've been doing well ;-)  Still have a ton of stuff going on, but Mr. CC is feeling much much better, so thank you again for all of the love and support!!!  I mentioned on Instagram today about my silly phone (iPhone 4S, which I use for my photos) was crashing!  It does seem to be working again, so if it acts up again, it's going to get checked!  If anyone has had pictures grayed out even though the preview looks ok or all their texts cleared, let me know what you did to fix it!  Oh technology, we love/hate you! ;-)

Anyway, I'm so excited to review some gorgeous Jaded Nail Co. polishes for you today!  You can purchase 

Jaded Nail Co. at http://jadednailco.bigcartel.com/.  You can also find out information on Facebook - Jaded Nail Co. or Instagram - @JadedNailCo.   Prices range from $10-11, with some on sale for $8!

First up, we have Serpent Spit.

For Serpent Spit, I used 2 coats along with Clearly on Top by KBShimmer.  The picture above was my first swatch that I lost most of the photos, so the ones below are the second swatch I did.  I had to include it because it captures the color so well!  And below I did the close up of this same shot.

I love the gold glitter through this!

Close up!  Which here you can see this gorgeous pink shimmer!

Next, we have Pegasus Pee.

For Pegasus Pee, I used 3 coats along with Clearly on Top by KBShimmer.

Neon yellow with gorgeous iridescent glitters!??  YES, please.  What a beauty!

Close up!  These two are from the Dirty Fantasy Neon collection.

Next, we have Save a Tree - Eat a Fly.  These next polishes are apart of the Monster High Collection.  They are like a new version of Barbies! lol only with a lot more edge!

For Save a Tree - Eat a Fly, I used 3 coats along with Clearly on Top by KBShimmer.

This is such a fun green jelly, that it almost does remind me of slime!  However, it is easy to apply and lots of glitter, so you get a fun mix on each nail!  Love the butterfly glitter and black, lime, and pink pieces!

PLUS, this glows in the dark!!  I was sad I didn't get a better picture, but it still looks so cool!

Close up!  All the little green and lime green glitters look so awesome in this!

Next, OH MY RA!

I started with 1 coat of OPI Barefoot in Barcelona.

I wanted this beautiful polish to stand out over the neutral, so I did 1 coat of OH MY RA! over top and finished with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.  I love the picture of the Monster High doll.

The gold and teal are beautiful together and that gold shimmer throughout is stunning!

Close up!

Next, Gossip Ghoul.

For Gossip Ghoul, I used 2 coats and topped with Clearly on Top.  I did dab a few glitters here and there, so it was two thick coats.

SO many gorgeous glitters in this light purple jelly base!  Love the stars and circles and squares all together!

Close up!

And finally, we have Ghoul Power, which is a Limited Edition.   It is a thermal, glow-in-the-dark. Unfortunately, this is sold out right now, but the good news is that Jade will be bringing it back once more!  After that though, it will be gone, so don't wait!!! This first picture is cold.

For Ghoul Power, I used 2 coats along with Clearly on Top by KBShimmer.  You can see it starting to warm up.

This purple pink jelly with stars and holographic glitters turns clear when warm!

Amazing, isn't it!?  I swear, I'm like a 5 year old with this stuff!  How can you not be amazed!?

This next picture survived my crazy phone, so I did that for the close up too because I broke my ring finger nail yesterday! haha I wonder if you guys would have noticed the stars moving when scrolling through the pictures ;-) lol!!!

And here is the glow in the dark!!!!  So fun and I was glad I could capture it!

Close ups!

Nerd Lacquer Holy Grail

Well Hello Monday, you are here again!  :-)  Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!  I ended up finishing the Hunger Games trilogy.  I'm kind of glad so I can stop obsessing about what happens, but I am a tad sad for it to be over!!  I want more!!  And the movies...well it's going to be forever until the next one is released! ;-)  haha  Other than that, just a relaxing weekend for me!

So you may have heard of this color, Holy Grail by Nerd Lacquer.  Amanda sells through a few stores.  I've purchased through Harlow and Co. - HERE, Ninja - HERE, and her own Etsy shop - HERE.  She has listed an update on her Etsy site, so you can check that out.  She ran out of base and had some other things going on, which explains why she has been SO busy lately!  Hopefully she'll open in a few weeks and also supply the other shops.  Both Harlow and Ninja have custom colors that are exclusive to their shops!  They are gorgeous.  I haven't seen Harlow stock Holy Grail, but I did see it listed through Ninja.  I bought this particular bottle from Amanda's Etsy shop.

Here is Amanda's description on Holy Grail!

HOLY GRAIL is a super-fine-grained satiny linear holo in a dusty blue-green base with silver microglitter, medium blue-green iridescent glitter, and a liberal sprinkling of big square and hexagonal silver holo glitter. Oh, also? GLOWS IN THE DAMN DARK.

Glow-in-the-dark linear holo glitter polish. That's about all that needs to be said.

I love it!  It does glow in the dark, but my camera couldn't catch it.  I turned off the night before bed, and my tips were glowing!  It kind of freaked me out at first - LOL!  This polish is so pretty.  All the pieces that come together to create it, make it very different and complex, but so stunning!  Mr. CC talked about this color non-stop, asking when I would order it!  So you know it's gotta be good if he really wanted me to get it!  I kept telling him because it was out of stock, I couldn't order it, but once i had it, I wore it immediately!  I just didn't get a chance to post, so sorry for the delay! ;-)  On to the pictures!  I used 3 coats with Wicked Fast Top Coat.

 

 

 

 

See the holo?!?!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love that in the shade you can see the irridescent glitter.  It glows!!  Such a fun creation by Amanda!  This polish was a little more than the others, I paid $16.00 for it, which I think it because of the materials to get that holo and everything! 

Hope you all have a great week!!

Much Love,

Crystal
