Wingdust Collections – Swatches and Review

Giveaway Prize

Readers far and wide!  I have a lovely pair of Wingdust Collections polishes to show you today.  I received these as a giveaway prize from their Facebook page and I cannot begin to tell you how delighted I was to receive them…not to mention the glass nail file (my favorite one so far) and Canadian candy that was in the package too!

First up is a lovely girly that is perfect for summer!  This is Funhouse!

Funhouse is a bright pastel lavender crelly based polish filled with neon pink, pastel pink, aqua, and bright purple glitters in a multitude of shapes and sizes.  It would be a tragedy for me not to mention the lovely subtle shimmer that runs throughout the polish.  There are triangle and star glitter in here so it’s a WIN for me!

I have a small collection of Wingdust Collections polishes now and I have encountered nothing but greatness.  For a crelly-based glitter which can sometimes present some challenges in application this one is really top of the heap when it comes to glitter dispersion and application.  I didn’t have to fish for the shaped glitters and I didn’t have any troubles applying the polish.  Pictures show two coats plus a glitter smoothing topcoat and a shiny topcoat.

Polishes used:  Sally Hansen – Complete Care 4-in-1 Treatment; Wingdust Collections – Funhouse (prototype); Carpe Noctem – Glitterslayer; Digital Nails – Ain’t Nobody Got Time for That Topcoat

Next up is After-Party @ Jimmy’s!

I LOVE this one.  It’s every single thing that I love about indie nail polish.  Unique? Check!  Jelly-based glitter bomb? CHECK!  Star Glitter? checkCheckCHECK!  Doesn’t hurt that it’s in my go-to color family either…I’m just super drawn to blues and teals and this one has both…score!  After-Party at Jimmy’s is a dark blue/blurple jelly base packed with shimmer.  There are navy, lavender, pastel pink, magenta and teal glitter is several shapes (including triangles and stars!) and finishes.

The thing that I’ve come to really enjoy about Wingdust Collections is the ease of use.  I think that even polishers who aren’t familiar with these kinds of polishes would find it relatively easy to apply.  I didn’t have any problem with getting glitter on the nail or spreading evenly.  Because of the jelly base it has a delicious depth to it that you just don’t get with non-jelly based polish.  There is a trade off of translucency but this was still only two and a half coats plus glitter smoother and topcoat.
