Mi Amor Polish: Let it Snow and Sleigh Ride

Hi everyone, happy New Year's Eve.  What are your plans for this evening?  The past few years the hubby and I have been going to our friends parent's house and hanging out with such a fun group of people.  We play board games until midnight and it's a good way to pass the time.  I've done a ton of thinking over the past few days and my conclusion is that I need to make 2014 a much better year then 2013.  I won't go into it but 2013 was rough for me and I want to make things so much better in the new year.

Today I have a new to me Indie brand called Mi Amor Polish.  I won these polishes in a giveaway and I am super impressed with both of them.  

First up I have Let It Snow.  Let It Snow is a glitter topper filled with turquoise, white, and iridescent glitters in different shapes and sizes.  I thought this polish was absolutely gorgeous.  I especially loved the blue diamond shaped glitters, they were just so funky and something I haven't seen before.


For Let It Snow, I layered one coat over OPI Visions of Love.  Swatches are without topcoat.  I didn't have any problems with formula on this polish and I didn't have to dig for any of the glitters.




The second polish I have is Sleigh Ride which is a glitter topper with a mix of red, green, white, and black glitters.  I really liked this topper because of the addition of the white and black.  I thought that made it more interesting than just a traditional red and green topper.


For this swatch, I paired Sleigh Ride with Zoya Jacqueline, a creamy nude.  This is similar to the look I wore on Christmas.  To me it looked like a sugar cookie with Christmas sprinkles :)  I used one coat with no topcoat.  There were no formula problems here and no glitter digging.





Overall I was really impressed with my first experience with Mi Amor Polish.  I really liked both glitters, especially Let It Snow.  You can find Mi Amor Polish on Etsy here.

  4. Both of these designs look great! The first one is perfect for this time of year! I love the base colour you've used for it too! 2013 was a pretty bad year for me too, but I'm sure 2014 will be a lot better for you! :)
