Are you ready for a new summer collection??  This afternoon I have The Polish Bar's Summer 2013 Collection to show you!


The Polish Bar Summer 2013 Collection
LAUNCHING JUNE 10, 2013

This collection has 8 polishes.

The Polish Bar Summer 2013 Collection


The Flower Power Trio: matte glitters and flower glitters

Flower Power
Cherry Blossom
Secret Garden

Independence Day 2013 - a Limited Edition red, white and blue polish

Beach Party
Girls Rule
Summer of Love
Together Forever

Continued after the jump...




So let's get started!

First, formula and application: I found that all the glitters in each polish suspended nicely and I only had to "place" the extra large ones to get them where I wanted. The only one I had any issues with was Beach Party and I think it's because of my bottle being a mini and having SO much glitter packed in there. One coat of Poshe top coat over all 8 polishes.

First up, Independence Day 2013: limited edition July 4th polish with fine holographic red glitters, holographic blue and white hexes and large red and blue circle glitters and tiny white and silver stars in a shimmery dark blue jelly base. First over Sinful Colors Endless Blue and alone with 3 coats on the thumb. I loved it both ways.

Secret Garden: matte glitters, fine and medium-sized yellow, pastel blue, pastel green and purple hexes and daisies in a clear base. First over Borghese Limoncello and then over KBShimmer Don't Pink Twice on the thumb. Next mani I'm layering it over a hot pink for the full mani - I loved that look!

Beach Party: various sizes of white matte hexes, white micro-slices and squares, various sizes of pastel matte hexes, various sizes of neon pink hexes plus a dash of neon orange micro-slices in a sparkling sheer white base. Over plain white creme. I did try wearing this one alone and because of the density of glitter pieces and the sheer base, I had too much of a glitter clump going on.
