CrowsToes - Bifrost (Nine Realms Collection, spring/summer 2014)

Indie polish today!
The first time I saw swatches of the new Nine Realms Collection (based on the nine words in Norse mythology) by CrowsToes I just n e e d e d Bifrost (and Huginn & Muninn), so I tried my best and got my paws on it. Bifrost is the rainbow bridge that connects Midgard (home of the humans) and Asgard (home of the gods) with each other. And a rainbow bridge it is!
Wow, all colours of micro glitter are present in this lovely polish which has a clear base!

This was two coats of Bifrost and there are still some less dense spots on the nail, but they are more visible in the pics then in real life. There is just so much sparkle and colour that it is just not that visible.
I still don't know if there is holo micro glitter in the mix as well or that all the colours together mimic the holo effect......but in the sun I would swear that there is holo glitter lurking around in Bifrost :-)

That's My little blog in a 2013 nutshell!

So...........let's start 2014:

What is better then to start the New Year with a glorious indie polish, from Crowstoes no less: Storms Never Last! It is a teal jelly with tons of hot pink micro glitter and slightly bigger turquoise glitter (in the bottle is some shift to orange noticable but this does not transfer to the nails).
It is a jelly so it does not get totally opaque....and I was not up for that (nor multiple layers) so I surged in my stash and found Kiko Venom Teal, which is, like the name already suggests, a teal polish with duo chromy possesions. It goes from green/ turquoise to purple/pink: THE perfect undies for my Crowtoes baby :-)
