DazzleGlaze Throne of Hades

I don't know how it's already October. I feel like we just celebrated New Year's only like 3 or 4 months ago. Not! It will be 2017 before we know it. October is definitely one of my favorite months. I think I enjoy Halloween more now than I did as a kid. I have so much fun decorating and I don't remember decorating for Halloween being a thing when I was younger. I decorating is certainly something that has come about more so in recent years. I have a Halloween-ish polish to share with you today from DazzleGlaze.

Throne of Hades
Throne of Hades is a black jelly base with metallic red and gold glitter throughout.

Collection: DazzleGlaze Greek Underworld Collection Fall 2014

Color: This is a great jelly glitter. It's hard to find black jelly glitters that work. Usually, I see glitters get drowned out by the dark base, but this is not the case with Throne of Hades. I love the mix of red and gold glitter in this, it gives this shade some vibrancy and bejeweled look.

Formula: The formula was a little bit on the thick side but manageable. I used 3 coats here.

Price: The 15ml size is $9.50 and a 7.5ml size is $6.00 on DazzleGlaze's site.

Overall: I really like this shade. It's perfect for the season and great take on a black jelly polish I really haven't seen done this well. I love the blend of colors and the richness of the glitters.

My Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Paint Splatters
Happy Monday!

DazzleGlaze Night Nyx

I have another polish from DazzleGlaze to show you today. DazzleGlaze is actually an indie that is local to me here in Orlando. Pretty cool! I went to a craft recently to scope them out and purchase some of their goodies. They have a ton of beautiful jelly glitters which happen to be my favorite finish. This one caught my eye!

Night Nyx
Night Nyx is a black jelly base filled with fuchsia and magenta glitters.

Collection: DazzleGlaze Greek Underworld Fall 2014

Color: I love glitters like this with a black jelly base and some bright glitter. It is so hard to find them done right though, and Night Nyx is done right. A common problem with black jelly glitters is that the black jelly usually drowns out the glitter. This isn't the case here at all. There is perfect balance between base and glitter. That beautiful magenta glitter shines through strong!

Formula: This formula was good. The glitters came out easily. I would recommend with this polish though that you wait for it to dry completely between coats. I noticed that if it was still slightly wet applying the next coat, the polish would pool in areas and get thick. If I waited for it to dry though, I did not have this problem at all and it applied evenly. I used 3 coats above.

Price: This is $8.00 on the DazzleGlaze website.

Overall: Gorgeous polish! I love glitters like this and I wish it came in more colors. I'd buy them all! The formula was nice, but I think you'll have better results if you let it fully dry between coats. I didn't find this bothersome or a deal breaker at all though as it only maybe added another 1-2 minutes to my polish time.

DazzleGlaze All Night Glow Stick

I discovered a local indie this past weekend! I went to a local indie art/craft fair yesterday, and DazzleGlaze was set up there. I have been familiar with the brand. We even have a mutual friend, but I never tried the brand or met the maker. I was so excited to see indie polish represented locally! I immediately was attracted to DazzleGlaze's stunning jelly glitters, and purchased a handful. This is one of the colors I picked up. 

All Night Glow Stick
All Night Glow Stick is a deep purple jelly base with green and purple glitters and holo glitters.

Collection: DazzleGlaze Slammin' 90's Summer Collection Summer 2015

Color: I was immediately attracted to this color because of the contrast between the purple and those bright green glitters. I love this color combination and it's not one I see often with nail polish. I love the amazing sparkle in this, and I love that it's a jelly glitter.

Formula: This was a great easy to apply formula. I didn't have any issues with having to fish for glitter. I used 3 coats above.

Price: This is $8.00 on the DazzleGlaze website.

Overall: I love All Night Glow Stick, the color is very true the name. I love the color combination and the holo sparkle. This is a blingtastic jam-packed glitter polish that makes me very happy. The formula was great and on par too.
