Positively Purple 'Parison

I love Indie polishes.  I tend to collect the same (or similar! Similar!) colors a lot, so I picked 4 purple ones and decided to see if they were anything alike. 

Trust me - you can rarely tell everything about an Indie polish just by looking at the bottle.  I have been fooled many, many times.

Whooz Polish Tutu.  I reviewed some other Whooz polishes back in January, and I had bought this one at the same time, but it hid in a corner of my untried drawer and I didn't realize it didn't make it into the review! 

Lots of sparkly holo and blue and pink glitters in a squishy jelly purple base.  It's a little sheer, but I don't know if I'd layer this one because then you lose some of the jelly quality. 

As of now, I'm not sure of the fate of Whooz polish, as their Facebook page seems to be gone, and their Etsy shop is on vacation.  Hopefully, they'll be back!

Sindie Pop Electric Purple.  I don't hear a lot about this Indie, but I should.  Every one of their polishes that I've tried has been amazing.  I had no idea that this polish would have that blue shimmer that really does make this polish look Electric!

Application was so smooth, too.  I'm in love with this purple!

Before I tell you where to find it, let me show you another Sindie Pop.  This is Mrs. Mouse.

But, you're thinking, this isn't purple?  If you can see the bottle, it looks lavender in the bottle!  It only looks pink on the nail.  Very sneaky! 

Fun glitter, though.  Everything applied nicely - no fishing or dabbing with the glitters.  I like the larger blue and the smaller pink and blue glitters together.  You can find Sindie Pop on Facebook and her webshop.

I should have taken a pix of the bottle of this next one all by itself.  It's such a dark purple, it almost looks black.  Yet, on the nail....

Sparkle Nail Lacquer Plum Pudding has a clear base!  Fooled me, again.  I tried to make it opaque, but I just made it lumpy.  This one definitely needs undies if you're looking for a solid color.

I do love the flakie quality, though!  Peeking through the blackened glitter are some really pretty iridescent purples.  I don't even know what color I'd use as undies to compliment all the glitters here!  You can find Sparkle Nail Lacquer on Facebook and Etsy.

Indie January - Whooz Polish

Well if there was ever a polish with a cuter mascot and label, I don't know what it is.  Whooz Polish caught my eye with their graphic, and I knew that their polishes would have as much attention to detail as their packaging.  I was right!  I have three polishes and looks to show you today.

Cotton CandyPants.  This was a surprise mini that I got in my package.  I'm so glad, because I really love it.  I'm a huge fan of the jelly-sandwich in a bottle, and purple.. well, I love purple.  Very cute pastel glitters, and the formula was easy to apply.

Somehow, the theme for today became hearts.  A friend posted a nail art design with these heart balloons in black (sorry, I do not have the originator to credit them, but if you know it, please let me know!) and I thought they would look cute with this polish.

Nerdy Girl.  This is my fave of the bunch!  I love these grey jellies, and you can't go wrong with adding white, black, and hot pink!  No undies here, but if you had longer nails you might have some VNL.  

I took pink and black nail stripers and made different types of hearts.  I love this - it looks like something I might have doodled on my notebooks when I was a teen and fell in love every 20 minutes.

Locket.  This is a pink, white, and purple microglitter with some larger pink hexes.  No undies, and I don't think you would need them unless you like a perfect cuticle line that you can't get with only glitter.  I have such a love for these microglitters - I think it started with Floam and Dandy Nails Wonderwall, and kept on going.  Such a neat way to wear glitter.

I had some different heart glitters that I got from the dollar store, so I decided to use them to complete the look.  A dotting tool and a little topcoat to place them, and sealed in with another layer of Seche Vite.  Very girly!

My first impression of Whooz polish is - whoooo can do without them?  not me!  I loved everything about them.  You can find Whooz polish on Facebook and on Etsy.

Do you have a fave Whooz?  Looking at their site, I might have to get Rock Candy next!
