Dark and sparkly

I don’t normally like too much glitter, but I decided to get this on a whim. I love it! The pinky purple flakes and delicate sparkle against the not quite black are the right kind of drama for my vestigial inner goth. I used two coats though it looked good at one.

Dark and Sparkly!

I loved this polish from the very first swatch; it applied smoothly and looked true to the photos online. It's deep and moody with a little pizzazz. Very pleased! (I can't speak to the total longevity of the polish because I change my manicure every week, but it lasted the entire week with no chips.)

Beautiful finish

Beautiful finish, a bit Sheets but the end result after three coats is worth it! So sparkly and with a great pop of color from the goalies.

Beautiful black jelly with sparkles

Beautiful black jelly with sparkles. Unique in my collection and easy application. I had to use a thicker layer so the flakes wouldn’t catch and drag the color around. Two layers of top coat to smooth the surface

a new fave

I love that the glitter mix is so pink and purple heavy, it really sets this black jelly flakie bomb apart from other common favorites like trick or trash from ht. in three coats, she is perfection!!

Party on my Nails!

I absolutely adore this shade and the inspiration! Pictures don't do it justice for how fun and how the light catches the flakies. Application was super easy. Picture is of 3 coats but I easily could've gotten away with only 2.

Love this one

This one is so pretty. Big fan of the combo of glitters in this. 2 coats is good or one over solid black.

A Jelly Galaxy

I’m not usually a fan of jelly polishes but this one is pretty on my nails! I love the purple glitters and how sparkly this looks on my nails, like looking into a little galaxy in a way.

So much sparkle

I really enjoyed this as a 90s emo kid. Took about 3 coats with no base color but you could get away with 1-2 if you layer over black.

Great name for a polish

Really beautiful polish, I thought it was going to be really bumpy but once I got the top coat on it was surprisingly smooth! Gorgeous black jelly in three coats, and I love the big pink flakies. I’m glad I got this one!

Gorgeous!

It's kind of funny that I saw this before knowing the theme of the collection, because the title and color really spoke to my "all things dark and spooky" haha. But I love the color! My picks are 2 coats over one thiiiick coat of Cracked's neutralizer (middle and ring finger)

Love!

Moody but also girly and sparkly! I prefer worn in two coats for a more jelly sheer finish over the opaque three coats.

The pictures online were prettier

Even when I shine light to my nails with this on, I feel like the shimmer and shine is seriously lacking

dark and sparkly

I love a black jelly with flakies, and this one is lovely. The flakie colour iridescence range is fun (greens, purples and pinks) and it gives good coverage in two coats, better in three. I wanted the flakies to be a little bigger and more noticeable, but I wonder if I just needed to shake the bottle up better? I think I got mostly the tiny ones. Oh darn, will just have to use it again!

This polish has such a wide array of usages, and I’m here for it! Still easy to apply, but versatile. Build it up in 2-3 coats for a nice opacity, or wear over another polish. I’ve tried it over grey, fuchsia, and blue as well as by itself, and each base makes a different aspect of the iridescence but accentuated.

Like magic

I'd never seen this combination of shimmer and flakes in a black jelly before, and I really like the versatility - it can be subtle on it's own, more opaque with a blurring base coat, and I'm looking forward to experimenting with it as a topper over different shades.
