Color & Finish: The Frosted Gumdrop line has a perfect assortment of colors. I love the sparkling finish on all of these, and the textured appearance really suits these colors. I will add, that the warm toned colors have a fine gold glitter added to them, and the cool toned colors have some larger silver pieces. Great line up!
Formula: The formula on all of these was great. These were easy to work with and were a breeze to apply. I used only 2 coats on all of these except Tangerine Dream where I used 3 coats. Top coat is not needed on these, but if you'd like a smoother finish, go for it!
Texture: These are very textured. The only other textured polishes I have tried are the Milani and OPI ones, but the JulieG ones are a lot grittier and rougher to the touch than the other brands I've tried. Personally, if it weren't for these awesome colors I'd be bit turned off by the texture. I know the texture thing is personal, but I felt a need to share that.
Price: I pre-ordered this set awhile ago for around $20, but they are $3.99 individually on the Jesse's Girl website and at Rite Aid stores.
Overall: Love the variety of colors and sparkling finishes on these polishes. The price is a steal for such a great on trend collection, and I think many people will love them. The texture of these is a bit much for me, but I'm willing to overlook it because everything else is so great!
My Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 Paint Splatters.
Happy Monday!
I feel the same way about textures! I love how it looks but I hate the feel of it. I actually think these ones are a touch smoother than my Zoya Pixiedust polishes, though I haven't tried the OPIs. My favorite are the three silver-based ones because they just look so interesting! I was also surprised that there wasn't a pink in this collection since everyone loves pink so much!
ReplyDeleteYou make all of these look just gorgeous! I've got the OPI Bond Girls mini set, and that's enough texture for me, lol, but you're really tempting me with these... especially the red, teal, and blue. :)
ReplyDeleteThey all look amazing! Textures look cool :D
ReplyDeleteI really love the textured trend, so these are right up my alley! I'm so glad I was able to get the set in the recent Groupon deal. :-) Like Rebecca said, these are a bit smoother than the Zoya PixieDusts, so anyone who doesn't like those may prefer these.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors of these. I have Tangerine Dream on right now, but I'm excited to wear the others now!
ReplyDeleteThose are awesome looking. Need them all. Haha :)
ReplyDeleteFun collection- I think Julie did the best job with the marketing on these...gum drops are a lot better than sand or pixie dust! ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are really pretty!
ReplyDeleteOhh there all so pretty. Hot Cinnamon is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI am absolutely loving these! Definitely need to see if I can find them somewhere in NYC.
