Happy Monday Lovely Ladies,

In today’s post I would like to share a few more Dandy Nails swatches with you.  I got one of the sweetest emails from Sandy a few weeks back; I truly cannot remember such a personable and kind email from an Indie Brand mastermind   Personally, it makes a huge difference to know that gorgeous shades are created by someone with a kind spirit.  But personality aside, Dandy Nails – as a brand- has quickly grabbed a strong hold of my heart because of the GORGEOUS shades and flawless formula!

Today I would like to show you Bory-Alice and Chilled-Down:

* * *

Bory-Alice is a “Blue/Purple and some gold shifting polish in a deep green/black base”:

(two coats)

This is one of the strongest blue-purple duochromes I have EVER seen.  The blue appears almost neon turquoise and it is bright and sparkly and absolutely stunning!

Bory-Alice rivals the likes of Ozotic Sugar 903 and Cult Nails Charlatan.  Whereas the aforementioned shades need a “base”, Bory-Alice creates this effect in two smooth and easy coats.  I am literally rendered speechless with this one.

I wanted to play with a little bit of fun “star” stamping with this one (and for the final touch I mattified the manicure also).

Even the matte top coat couldn’t tame the duochrome shimmer.  This is so exquisite!

Chilled Down is PACKED with “Blue and Gold flakes suspended in an off-white, milky base, for a perfect winter feel”:

(two coats)

I swatched (and wore) this shade “plain” a few weeks back … I couldn’t rationalize covering  the shimmery glass flecks in this one.  The base of this polish is IDENTICAL to OPI Skulls & Glossbones- an off-white beige/grey that I absolutely adore.  Chilled Down is an office appropriate polish with spunk!

Chilled Down is one of my personal ALL TIME FAVOURITE indie shades EVER! That is all I have to say!  Do I recommend you snatch a bottle of this one? Damn right I do! ’nuff said

(I wore this shade AGAIN this past weekend AND stamped it this time- check out tomorrow’s post for more).
