GG Indie Polish Gemstone Jellies Swatch and Review

Greetings and Nailutations,

*Press Sample*
Today I have five polishes from GG Indie Polish (GG = Green Glitter) that are part of the Gemstone Jellies Collection to share.  All the polishes are inspired by gemstones and are jellies of course.  GG Indie Polish ships world wide and is 5 free, so they don't contain any of the 5 harsh chemicals that can be found in some polishes.

Now let's get to some swatches!

First up is Alexandrite, a purple glitter jelly that contain silver holographic glitter in small and micro sizes as well as the occasional mini star.  It builds up from a sheer look of 1-2 coats to a more opaque look of 3 coats.  It applied nicely with great jelly formula.  Photos show 3 coats with shiny top coat (1st, 2nd and 3rd photos) and with matte top coat (4th photo).






Next is Blue Topaz, which is a gorgeous blue glitter jelly.  Blue Topaz contains small, micro and square silver holographic glitters as well as the occasional mini star.  Photos show 2 coats for total opacity with shiny top coat (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th photos) and matte top coat (5th photo).







Peridot is next, a vibrant lime green jelly with holographic silver and green hexes and the occasional star.  Peridot applied easily, like the others.  Photos show 3 coats, which was still quite sheer with shiny top coat (1st, 2nd and 3rd photos) and matte top coat (4th photo).






Quartz is a soft white jelly with silver holographic glitters and mini stars.  Again, the formula was easy to work with and applied evenly.  Photos show 3 coats with shiny top coat.






The last polish of the collection is called Rhodolite.  Rhodolite is my favorite!  It is a red-pink jelly with silver and pink holographic hexes and the occasional star.  I love how bright it is!  Photos show 3 coats with shiny top coat (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th photos) and matte top coat (5th photo).







Shiny Top Coat: Gem Glam Top Coat from www.dreampolish.com
Matte Top Coat: Polish Matte'rs from www.girlybitscosmetics.com

Loves:  I love that these polishes were jellies because they look amazing with shiny and matte top coats.  My favorites of the collection were Rholodite and Blue Topaz because they were on the darker side and created a truly opaque look.  The formulas on all were perfect and applied great.  All GG Indie Polish products are 5-free so they don't contain 5 of the harsh chemicals that can be found in polish.

Wishes:  The only thing I wish is that the star glitter was more easily attainable.  But not to worry, I believe she is going to include a packet of star glitters for easy glitter placement!

Which one is your favorite?  What other gemstone would make a pretty polish?  Maybe yellow diamonds...or chocolate diamonds??
