Rainbow Honey Summer of 199X - Glittery Jellies

Hello! I've managed to get a bit behind again, so I am going to post the rest of the Rainbow Honey Summer of 199X collection today (two posts). First off, here's the glittery jellies!

left to right, up to down: Fire Spring, The Kraken, Lumine Hall,
Pink Cloud, Tiny Ruby
The Kraken is a blue-ish teal jelly base with a ton of teal, silver and blue glitters and shimmer. It had fantastic formula and applied really well. I love this color!

On my nails:
1 coat Innisfree Eco Peel-off Base coat
2 coats Rainbow Honey The Kraken
1 coat KB Shimmer Clearly On Top

Lumine Hall is an amazing indigo jelly with a ton of purple-y blue shimmer and small aqua and blue square glitters. This is such a beautiful color! Definitely my favorite. I initially thought I would struggle with opacity on these (this was the first I wore) and layered it, but Lumine Hall absolutely did not need it. Great application here as well, although as you can tell Lumine Hall ends up looking much more jelly-like while The Kraken's end finish is kind of foil-like.

On my nails:
2 coats Rainbow Honey Lumine Hall
1 coat OPI Topcoat

Fire Spring is not actually a jelly -- unlike the rest it is a coppery pumkpin shimmer with scattered orange glitters. While this seems like a very autumnal shade to me, it had really nice formula also and fans of burnt orange will love it for sure!

Tiny Ruby is a deep red jelly full of red glitters as well as scattered gold hexes. Super sparkly! The base on this one is a little less dense than, say Lumine Hall I think, and could potentially benefit from a third coat or a base color. Very pretty though!

 Lastly, Pink Cloud is a bright pink jelly full of pink, red, and silver glitters. This one was the sheerest of them all, and I actually did go for the extra third coat. It still had some serious VNL, especially on my middle finger, so I think a base color might be the way to go with this one. Such a pretty color though!

 I really loved this part of the new collection, they are all so jewel-like and beautiful! They had great formula, even in those mini bottles, which are so small that it can cause some problems (will discuss more in the glitter topper post). It's a shame the bottles are so tiny I don't know if I will get another mani out of them... I would love to wear them again, so pretty!

Have a great day! ♥
