Mass NZ Indie polish spam post!

Okay... well, firstly I only manged to post till day 5 of NZ indie polish month before I fell very ill for roughly two weeks. I then manged to break my nail extremely short and had to resort to nubbins :( Assignments have been crazy these last two weeks and I work full time. So sick + work + assignments + life - pretty swatching nails = one very shameful, slack and lazy blogger! (ME!) 

However I do own plenty of gorgeous NZ made indie polishes! Currently in my collection I have Star Kin, Nail Juice, Handmade by Kyleigh and on their way in the post Peacock Pie!! 

So I am going to do a mass post of all my backed up swatches and my ugly new swatches :) 

Prepare yourself for a very picture heavy post! I will try to keep descriptions short and sweet and let the pretties do the talking! 

Without further ado...

Day 6 - Swamp Princess by Star Kin! This is a custom polish the very talented Ami created for me. It is a deep olive green that flashes to a brighter green then shifts through to pink/purplish it also has a generous serving of gold flakies! 

NZ Indie Polish Month - Day 5

Today I have a Polished Kiwi Lacquer Polish! This one is very cool as it is part of a New Zealand themed collection! I had to buy this as I live in the beautiful Bay of Plenty in a town called Whakatane! So I was very excited to see the polish Bay of Plenty in the Polished Lacquer shop :) Have a looksie at Jade's shop here or drop by her facebook page and have a nosy. 

Bay of Plenty is a beautiful and rich blue creme with green, blue and yellow glitters. When you topcoat this polish it really looks like a shimmering sea!

NZ Indie Polish Month - Day 4

Day four of NZ Indie Polish Month is a Polish made by the talented Kyleigh! This polish is called Starry Starry Knight - Handmade By Kyleigh. This polish was one of two that I lucky enough to have won from Lani over at Lani Loves blogiversary giveaway! This is truly a beautiful polish! It looks like I am wearing the night and stars on my fingertips! This polish is a gorgeous inky blue jelly filled with glittering hexes, squares, circles and of course stars! Go check out Kyleigh out on Facebook! 

 

NZ Indie Polish Month- Day 3

I am wearing another beautiful Star Kin creation this one is Shooting Stars! A beautiful black jelly filled with iridescent glitters and bar glitter. It is like wearing a galaxy on your nails! I layered it over black. Fun fact this polish was surprisingly easy to remove considering all the glitters packed into it! Check out Star Kin on Etsy or Facebook!

NZ Indie Polish Month - Day 2

Today I am wearing Nail Juice! Nail Juice is created by the ever so talented Steph and Dan! Recently Steph was referred to as the "wizard of cremes" which is quite appropriate because her polishes are almost one coaters! I am wearing Business At The front, Party At The Back. This is a perfect pale grey speckled with small black hexes and squares and filled with a beautiful array of tiny colourful glitters. I really love this polish because I have a love affair with grey polish (especially interesting ones). You can buy Nail Juice from here or have a wee look at the Nail Juice facebook page!

NZ Indie Polish Month!

May is finally here and PANZ (Polish Addicts NZ) have declared the month of May a time to spread a little love to the kiwi polish makers!

Some of the current NZ indie polish brands I own are;
Star Kin, Nail Juice, Handmade by Kyleigh and Polished Kiwi Lacquer!

I am hoping to add some more to my collection too! :)

So let's kick things off with a bit of Star Kin! :)
First up we have two Star Kin polishes Naked 1 and Blush! Naked 1 is a really gorgeous pale pink creme with a subtle shimmer.

Blush a pale pink creme with a hint of shimmer filled with multi-coloured matte glitters in various shapes! I though these two complimented each other beautifully.

 I thought this manicure was very soft, pretty and feminine.
