My Indie Polish Fall 2016 Collection Swatch and Review
8:48 AM**Press Samples**
**WARNING PICTURE HEAVY**
Cozy Cable Knit
Cozy Cable Knit is described as "a comfy colour that will fit in ANYWHERE, heavy on the holo with an amazing pink sheen",
Shown is one coat of Cozy Cable Knit with Fast Dry Top Coat.
Cozy Cable Knit surprised me with it being a one coat. Tanya said it is always a two coater for her, but I had full coverage and no VNL with one coat. It could vary person to person though. This color intrigued me in the bottle, but I fell in love almost instantaneously with the first coat. Smooth application, beautiful formula.

Halloween Night
Halloween Night is described as "a duochrome with a bit of holo".
Shown is three coats of Halloween Night with Fast Dry Top Coat.
Halloween Night reminds Tanya of "fall nights where the moon makes it bright but you get super heavy clouds". It is a lovely representation of Halloween night. The added bit of holo adds the perfect amount of sparkle. It's not a lot, but too much wouldn't be right with this one. It is slightly sheer, so I would recommend three coats for sure. Great application though.
8$ (minis)/13$ (full)
Sequoia
Sequoia is described as "a great cream with a bit of red shift and glitter".
Shown is two coats of Sequoia with Fast Dry Top Coat.
Sequoia is hands down my favorite of the collection. This color is super unique. It is like a blackened purple with red undertones. Like mauve, but not, and darker, and not as dusty. UGH! IT'S SO PERFECT!! Beautiful application and formula. All I know is everyone needs this polish!

Big Burgundy
Big Burgundy is described as "complex; deep and heavy but sparkly with holo and micro glitters".
Shown is two coats of Big Burgundy with Fast Dry Top Coat.
Big Burgundy is another favorite. I love polishes with specks of glitter in contrasting colors. This polish is a jelly. I was able to get it to work in two coats, but some might need three. Great formula and application. Don't pass this one up!

The Great Pumpkin
The Great Pumpkin is described as "an orange holo thermal, when cold it is a pumpkin orange holo, when hot it is gold flakes with a touch of holo".
Shown is two coats of The Great Pumpkin with Fast Dry Top Coat without manipulation.
The Great Pumpkin is another that surprised me. Thermals are hit or miss for me. My nails were at a good length when swatching this, that I was able to fully enjoy it and I'm going to gush over it now. The holo may not be prominent, but that isn't the point of this polish. She couldn't have done anything else to make this polish more perfect. The color choices, the glitter/shimmer choices. It's beautiful! The orange is beautiful, I wasn't able to fully capture it. My room was warm and I couldn't get the water or my hands cold enough to get it to stay for long. But the change is flawless.

Reflecting Pond
Reflecting Pond is described as "a deep blue jelly with blue micro glitter and a massive violet/pink sheen".
Shown is three coats of Reflecting Pond with Fast Dry Top Coat.
Reflecting Pond is Tanya's person favorite of the bunch. You'll see why! Don't let the three coats turn you away. You can just as easily do one or two coats of this over a dark polish like OPI Eurso Euro or something. It won't take away from the beauty of Reflecting Pond at all. This polish also couldn't have a more perfect name. You'll sit and stare at your nails for so long, it might as well be a reflecting pond. haha

Fast Dry Top Coat is non-yellowing and dries quickly and crystal clear. It isn't a high gloss, but I found that it does not dull holos either.
I used Fast Dry Top Coat on all the above swatches.
4.50$ (mini)/6.75$ (full)

Make Me A Lady Cuticle Cream is made up of water, emulsifying wax, stearic acid, phenoxyethanol, and sorbic acid.
I applied Make Me A Lady to all of my above swatches with a small brush.
Make Me A Lady is unscented. There is no overwhelming smells or mixing scents with lotions or oils or anything. It is thick, and a little goes a long way. I love that it isn't greasy. It isn't fully matte, but it isn't anything that looks like your fingers are wet.
7$ for 4 oz
