Sparkles By Julie - Peachy Jelly Belly & Water Lily Swatches & Review

Hey guys! Finally have things back on track a bit, my laptop will be gone for a couple weeks getting repaired so I had to hook up my desktop, so I did and couldn't guess my password lol fail I know!
So we did a new re-install of windows and then I realized I didn't have a SD card reader! /facepalm
But I have one now and I can edit pictures I take etc! My SD card only had about 1200 D: A lot to do!

But on to the post! Today I'm posting about another indie brand called Sparkles by Julie!
Check out her cute labels!

Peachy Jelly Belly
"A Peach colored Jelly Belly! This polish is pink/orange/peachy toned with a gold shimmer, packed with orange, gold and holographic glitters. If you're a girly girl and love Jelly Belly's, you need this in your collection!"


I used two coats for full opacity above.

Water Lily
"A beautiful gold shimmering white nail polish, kinda inspired by my pet mouse Lilly, and a bit inspired by the beautiful Water Lily's that magically float around on the murky waters of the world. This polish is packed with gorgeous glitters in gold, holographic, black and a little bit of blue for good measure, do I hear Wedding Bells?"

I wore this alone as well as two thin coats over white (swatches are over white!)
I really prefer this over white, but it builds up easily alone in two coats.

The formulas on both polishes were very good, smooth and a great consistency. 
Metallic and heavy shimmer shades with glitter in them seem to appear lumpy in photos but these weren't whatsoever.
I'm not a very big fan of polishes like this (shimmers with glitter) considering though these are nice.
Just not my thing, but great quality polishes!

Make sure to keep up to date with Sparkles by Julie via Facebook and Twitter.

Julie's polishes are priced at $8.00 ea. in her Etsy shop!
