Chaotic Glitz Spring 2015 Collection

Hello Lovelies!  Earlier this week I swatched some pretty pale pastel polishes for you, so I thought I would liven things up and show you some bright pastel swatches perfect for spring or summer.  I recently won some codes to purchase from some very lovely indie brands in an Instagram giveaway, and one of them was for Chaotic Glitz who is easily one of my top five favorite indie makers.  I'm a sucker for crème polishes, and with spring here and summer not to far behind I just knew I had to make this collection my own, and the code I won gave me just the excuse I needed to make the purchase.  I also purchased a lemon scented cuticle pen, which smells divine and she threw in a mani soak for me too.



I decided to do these swatches slightly different than I normally do, as you will see in the pictures below.  I swatched each polish on only two finger (mid and pointer) and created a dry drag accent (this was done as a decal) on my ring finger and a glitter accent on my pinky.  All swatches are done with 2 coats, though all of them were mostly opaque with 1 coat.  All photographs are taken indoors under daylight lamps.  Also all swatches are topped with a glossy topcoat too.

What Do You Pink


This is a super bright bubble gum pink, though a friend of mine mentioned it reminded her of Pepto-Bismol.  Either way I think it is a fun color.  The application of this polish was very smooth and easy, though slightly on the thick side.

Peaches Be Like


This is a very unique orange crème, that is a great addition to my collection which currently lacks in orange shades.  The application of this was delightfully smooth and creamy.

Mint for Me


I often say this but I feel green shades are so underappreciated in the nail polish world.  This is a really pretty bright mint green.  The application of this was very easy, just like the others.

Here's Lookin at Blue


My favorite shade, blue!  This is a gorgeous bright sky blue that I find irresistible!  The formula of this one was a bit thicker than the rest, so the application wasn't as smooth as I prefer.  However, I would rather have a thicker formula than a thinner one, because you can always use polish thinner to obtain the consistency you prefer.

Purple On


Much like pink, I don't give purple polishes much thought.  However, this bright pastel purple is incredibly pretty and surprisingly easy to wear.  The application of this polish was absolutely perfect.

Peeps Gettin' Better


This complimenting glitter is a super loaded bright matte pastel glitter bomb.  Its full of bright colored large square and hexes pieces, medium grey hexes, and teeny tiny white hexes.  I applied this in three brushed on layers (unfortunately I am currently out of makeup sponges).  This glitter would go perfectly over any shade in the collection.
I am so glad I purchased this collection, it is so bright and colorful, and the application was very easy on all the polishes.  This is the first time I've attempted to create a dry drag decal and because the polishes are thick and creamy it didn't take me very many tries before I had created one I was satisfied with.  I did attempt to do some stamping with these polishes but was unsuccessful in getting my stamper to pick them up. 
Either way, I am absolutely in love with this collection and have many plans for them in the future.  Currently, the full sized full set of this collection is sold out, but it is available as a mini set and as individuals (link to store above).  I hope you found this review useful and enjoyed these swatches.  Thanks for stopping by, see you next time.
Your Fellow Plebe,
