Review- Ninja Polish Color Changing Garnet

Hello ladies! Hope everyone is having a good week. I don't know where my head has been, I definitely thought it was Monday. Oh lawdy. I am looking forward to that long Labor Day weekend because, clearly, I'm off my rocker.  It's also possible that I'm a little off kilter from this polish that I'm about to show you today (how's THAT for a segue?!?). I was checking out Ninja Polish awhile ago and came upon Color Changing Garnet. This polish is from the Facets Collection and it's described as a gemstone that shifts "magnificently from a green to gold to red" As if the name enough didn't have me (I'm a die hard Florida State University fan and one of our colors is garnet!), I checked a couple blog swatches and I was totally sold. When I got it in the mail, it was on my nails THAT NIGHT. Check out how gorgeous this nonsense is



That's a macro shot of it on my pointer finger. Stick a fork in me I'm done

And knowing the busy body that I am, I did a super simple tape mani and taped off a double accent mani.



I love how completely and utterly obvious the color shift is in this polish. The micro glitter simultaneously adds depth and to the overall shift effect of the polish. I DIE. Formula was not bad, a tad thin for me but definitely not unworkable. Dry time was decent and the finish was actually relatively smooth. Swatches show two coats on the pointer and pinkie finger over black and one coat on the middle and ring finger over black.

So, what do you guys think? Do any of you have color changing garnet? Do you looooooove it? Well, that's all for today my loves. I've decided to dedicate this week to indie reviews as I am piling up on swatch photos. Since I am a tad behind with posting I will be back again tomorrow with more indie awesomeness. But until then, remember to keep it classy and creative!

Oh yeah, and, GO NOLES!

    1. Why thank you my dear. The color shift is really pretty spectacular on this. To the point that it's almost distracting, lol.
