Indie Spotlight: LynBDesigns

Hey everyone! Today I have another awesome indie brand I'm dying to share with you guys. Now being from Canada I usually feel pretty left out when it comes to indies. Either the shipping is outrageous or the polish is never consistently in-stock. But fear not, LynBDesigns offers a huge range of polishes that are always in-stock, very fairly priced and won't charge an arm and a leg for shipping. Based out of Michigan, Jenna creates incredibly creative polishes inspired by various movies, books, TV shows etc. Her shop also sells perfumes, lip balms, cuticle oils and some jewelry items.

For Canadian/International orders Jenna does ask that you email her directly about purchases so that she can create a custom listing for you. I found that Jenna answered my emails very quickly and was a pleasure to communicate with. I was so pleased with the polishes I received!

Colorclub Halo Hues Swatches: Over The Moon, Cosmic Fate & Kismet.

Last month we had the wonderful opportunity to review the company Enospring and they were generous enough to send us some polishes from the 2012 and 2013 Halo Hues collection. Today I have three polishes from the 2013 collection to share with you all.

Let me first off say that if you don't own any polishes from the Halo Hues collection, I recommended you correct that ASAP! These beauties are absolutely stunning and I promise you that if you love holo polishes as much as I do, you will not be disappointed.

Indie Spotlight: Indie Polish

Recently I bought some polishes off Etsy from Tanya of Indie Polish (etsy || facebook). I purchased the multi-pack of 3 mini polishes for $13usd/$13.50cdn, shipping included. As a Canadian indie lover I usually feel left out because the shipping costs to Canada are so outrageous they sometimes cost more than the polish itself. So you can imagine how pleasantly surprised I was to discover Indie Polish, especially when the multi pack I purchased already had shipping costs worked into the price. Since Indie Polish is from Toronto as well I received my well packaged polishes in less than a weeks time and was very happy with the service and products. Here were my choices:

L-R: Finding Nemo, Gentle...It's My First Time, Finding Dory
