Good evening. Tonight I have two more polishes from Wonder Beauty Products' Valentines Day line coming out around February 7, 2013. These two are clear-based glitters: 1 Dozen Heart Bouquet and Roxie Hart.
1 Dozen Heart Bouquet is a clear-based glitter polish with pink and red hearts, various shards and micro-glitters and red, pink and gold hexes. I had issues getting any glitter out of the bottle. It wouldn't stick to the brush at all. The bottle was clearly packed with plenty of glitter pieces and they were suspended really well, not sticking to the sides or anything but they just wouldn't adhere to the brush even though I got a lot of base out on the brush. I've been doing my own nails for 35 years and I've tried all the methods for using glitter polishes and I finally was able to scrape out enough for the mani. The red hearts and the rest of the other glitters laid perfectly flat on the nail once I got them onto the nail except for the pink hearts. They seemed about double thickness of the others and wouldn't lie flat on my arched nails. I used this one over a base of
Wonder Beauty Products Blue Sterling and followed with two coats of Gelous and a coat of Poshe.

Roxie Hart is a clear-based glitter polish with black hearts, red, white and silver holo bars,silver and white, black and silver hex glitters. This one was the same as 1 Dozen Heart Bouquet as far as getting the glitters out of the bottle. They didn't want to stick to the brush at all and I really had to fish for them and drag them out. The black hearts were really thick and didn't want to lie flat on my arched nails. I layered this one over a medium grey and used 2 coats of gelous and one coat of Poshe trying to get the hearts not to stick up off of the nail. All of the other glitters laid nicely.

What do you think of these? I really liked how 1 Dozen Heart Bouquet looks. I assume that you guys are like me and would rather know the issues I had up front. I will still buy something I know has issues as long as I know ahead of time and I like the polish enough. What say you?

Great review - I like the look of Roxie Hart and I appreciate your honesty. Much like you, if I like a polish I will buy it even if it has some issues, but it's nice knowing that before I purchase it.
ReplyDeleteI love 1 Dozen Heart Bouquet!! Such a fun glitter!
ReplyDeleteI really like both of them. I've never heard of this brand before either!
ReplyDeleteThey are very pretty, but too bad about the fishing challenges :(
ReplyDeleteI read reviews to get honest opinions of the polish before I buy it. Pointing out some irregularities in the formula will not deter me from purchasing it if i still like it, it will just prepare me so I am not disappointed. Your application is flawless, I appreciate your hard work, and your honesty is priceless!
