Dusting off the cobwebs!

Hello my lovely ladies!

Needless to say, it has been MONTHS since my last post, six months to be exact!! So much has happened these past few months; new collections, multiple sales and coupons, addition of new products, etc. Moving forward, there will also be A LOT of changes, but lets save that for another post ;-). 

So lets have a little recap and go over all of the polishes that were released since my last post :). All of these polishes are still available unless stated otherwise. 

First up we had our halloween collection, inspired by one of my favorite shows EVER, Charmed. I did not watch this show growing up (how the heck did I miss that!!), but discovered it one night browsing Netflix. It quickly became one of my favorite shows and I felt like it would be a very appropriate theme for Halloween! The collection is comprised of six polishes. 

For swatches and reviews of this collection, check out Victoria's, Carly's, Chelsea's, and Amy's blogs! 

Next up we have the Goddess Collection, which was inspired by popular Goddesses of various regions in the world. We are planning to add more polishes to this collection over time, but for now there are five glittery and sparkly topcoats. 


For swatches and review of this collection, check out Victoria's and Chelsea's blogs :)! 

Next, we did the Diva Collection Part III. This collection is based upon a very popular hip-hop diva, Rihanna! The polishes in this collection are inspired by a variety of Rihanna's songs, some new and some old favorites of mine :)! There are five polishes in total and they all have colored bases. 

For swatches and review, please visit Valesha's Blog

For the holidays, we released an extra limited edition polish called Holodaze; it was our first linear holographic polish, but most definitely wont be our last!! Holodaze is no longer available. I am unable to find bottle shots of it at the moment, but you can view swatches and review on Sheila's blog! 

Our final collection of 2012 was one I am absolutely IN LOVE with. It just might be my favorite collection so far, and was definitely a step outside of my box! It was inspired by various cities in America, and sunsets; hence the name Sunset in the City. Each polish is a holographic multichrome, and they all have a scattered linear effect (does that even make sense?). Although they can be worn alone, the true effect can only be seen when layered over darker colors. The colors REALLY pop in the sunlight :)!! 

Its a hard to see the holographic goodness in these photos, but I promise its there :)! Aren't they just magnificent :-D?! To see some amazing swatches check out Sheila's, Victoria's, Jody's blogs!!

We started off 2013 with our second love themed collection. Looking back at our debut love collection, I'm so happy to see all of the growth and evolution that has happened  in every single aspect of my brand. From formula and design to packaging and presentation, we have come a very long way, and have no intention of stopping any time soon!! Anyways, this collection, Love is in the Air, consists of 9 polishes all inspired by feelings of love! 


For swatches of this collection, head on over to Jacki's, Carla's, Samantha's (part 1, part 2), and Victoria's (part 1, part 2) blogs! 

In honor of our first birthday, we released a girly and fun limited edition birthday polish called Birthday Cupcake. This polish is no longer available. 


 

I literally had almost 20 bloggers swatch and review this polish the day it was released, so to save us all from linking and viewing each blog separately, I'm going to link you to Google Images :)

Last but not least, is our St. Patty's day Party Duo. This duo consists of two polishes, a sparkly emerald jelly and a fun and versatile glitter topcoat! 



Check out reviews on Sheila's, Samantha's, Kellie's, and Jackie's blogs! 


So there you have it gals! Six months worth of info all in one convenient location :-D!! Have you tried any of these polishes? How did you like them? I love customer feedback and would love to hear from you guys! 


As you can see I've been super busy over the last few months!! If you've been following me on Facebook, you know that there are some more changes happening here at GlitterDaze. I cant wait to show you all everything I've been working so hard for!

Later today, I will be posting again regarding some fun spring polishes, so come back in the afternoon!!

If you aren't already, follow me on social media to stay up to date about everything!


See y'all when you come back in a few hours!

The Diva Collection Parts I and II

Hello my lovely ladies!!

Its finally time for me to introduce you all to the much awaited Diva Collection! My inspiration for this collection came from the music of a handful of my favorite Divas! I am not affiliated with any of the artists portrayed, just inspired by them :)! This collection will be released in multiple parts, grouped by the artists by which they were inspired. Today I'll be sharing Parts I and II. Hope you guys love them all! Lets jump right in :)!!

Part I of this collection is inspired by the soulful and fabulous Beyonce. 


Crazy in Love is a super fun glitter topcoat full of black and hot pink matte shredded glitter, black hearts, and small holographic glitter. The layering combinations for this one are endless! 






Dance for You is a black jelly polish filled with a variety of shapes, sizes, and shades of silver with a little black glitter sprinkled in. This one is very classy and perfect for the fall! You can layer this polish over other colors, or build it up to opacity on its own.

Girls Run the World is a bold glitter topcoat full of black, pink, white, and gold shredded glitter with red, fuchsia, and white hexagonal accents. This polish is the perfect balance between fierce and feminine. 


 
Halo is a special effect glitter topcoat full of gold and iridescent shredded glitter in a golden holographic clear base. This polish will look different over various colors because of the special effect iridescent glitter. 






Naughy Girl is another perfect for fall glitter topcoat consisting of black, silver, and pink shredded glitters in a silver holographic clear base. This polish looks perfect layered over light and dark colors! 

















Upgrade You is a while jelly polish with gold, silver, and purple shredded glitter and a beautiful lavender shimmer. This one can be worn over other colors or built up to opacity on its own. Such a luxurious look! 

















Part II of this collection is inspired by the bold and eclectic Nicki Minaj 





Its Barbie, Biatch
is a blingy glitter topcoat for all the Barbies out there! It consists of multisized white glitter, large matte pink squares, and small holographic hexes and bars. 





















Reloaded is a very unique glitter topcoat with multicolored matte shreds, black shreds, and large multicolored neon hexes. This polish gives off a 'paint splattered' effect and because of the semi-transparent neon glitters, it looks different over various colors. 

















Right By My Side is a bright pink jelly polish filled with iridescent shredded glitter. Application on this one is a bit tricky, but totally worth it in my opinion! This polish can be worn alone or layered on top of other colors. The iridescent glitters will change over darker colors!








Starships is a super sparkly glitter topcoat consisting of multishape/size/shade of pink and green matte as well as metallic glitters. It'll look great layered over a variety of base colors!


















The Diva Collection is now available in my BRAND NEW STORE! As you can see from the pictures, I have changed my bottles and revamped things a whole lot to bring you all an even better GlitterDaze experience :)! Some things to note about these changes:

* We now carry larger bottle sizes. Minis are now 7mL instead of 5 mL and Fulls are now 14 mL instead of 12.5 mL
* We now offer reward points! Each polish you purchase earns you reward points which you can use for a discount on your next purchase OR save them up to receive a FREE polish of your choice! 
* You are now able to leave testimonials about your shopping experience as well as specific reviews for each product you purchase. I love any and all feedback and I would really appreciate testimonials and reviews! :)
* Shipping charges on each polish are now significantly reduced. You only pay exactly what it costs to ship your item, vs paying for shipping AND packaging costs! Yayy for low shipping!! 

So there we have it! I would love to hear your thoughts! Which ones do you like the most? How do you like the new website?

Until next time ladies :)

The good, the bad, and the better :)

Hello everyone! I hope you all are doing fabulous :)

So today I've got some good news, some bad news, and some better news :)! I like to start with the bad news first so the good news can overpower it!

The bad news is that the Psychedelic, Simply Spring, and Birthday Girl collections are being discontinued :(.

The good news is that the shops will stay open for one week and everything will be available until I run out :)!! I've got at least 15 full sized bottles of each color, so hopefully everyone can still purchase what they want.

And now for the better news! GlitterDaze will soon be completely REVAMPED! This means a new website, new bottles, new colors, and a few cool extras (which are still a secret *wink wink*). In order to complete this revamp, the shops will be closed from 7/27-8/3. I am so excited for these new changes and I can't wait for you all to see them :)!

So, if you've been waiting to purchase any of these polishes, this would be the best time to do so! Everything is available on Storenvy and most things are available on Etsy!! Also, if you purchase a full sized bottle, you may get one with a white cap instead of black :)

Thank you all for your continued love and support!! <3 <3

The Bad Girl Collection

  

Hello everyone! <3

I hope you all have been doing well!! I'm really excited to introduce you all to my newest creations, the Bad Girl collection!! These 7 polishes are made up of my new favorite thing: shredded glitter!!! Each polish is a glitter topcoat with some serious attitude and can be layered over an endless combination of colors! These are perfect for anything from a night out on the town to a day relaxing in the sun Lets check them out :)


B.A.M.F. has purple, silver, royal blue, and fuchsia shredded glitter as well as various shaped silver and gunmetal glitters, and holographic silver bar glitter. 

Girl Gone Wild has black, fuchsia, and gold shredded glitters as well as multiple sizes of purple glitter and small holographic purple glitter as well as holographic silver bars. 

 
Hot Shot has red and gold shredded glitter, red, orange, and fuchsia multi-sized glitters as well as gold squares and bars. 


Prima Donna has pink and gold shredded glitter, white and silver hex glitters, as well as white and holographic gold bar glitters

   
Showstoppin has light pink, fuchsia, and red shredded glitters, silver and black bar glitters, as well as small silver holographic glitters. 









Socialite has white shredded glitter, as well as small hot pink, orange, chartreuse, light blue, and lilac glitters











Queen B. has black and gold shredded glitters as well as holographic gold hex, and silver holographic bar glitters.

 







Tips for application
- I recommend using the dabbing method to achieve the look you desire. If you want a very heavy glittered look, make sure you let the first coat dry before dabbing on the second.
- Because these polishes have shredded and bar glitters, they will require a few coats of thick topcoat to help the glitter lay flat and be completely smooth. Some of the shreds will want to stick up, and won't lay flat no matter what (annoying!). If these bother you,  I recommend taking some tweezers and pulling them off.

This collection, as well as past collections will be available in my primary shop: www.glitterdaze.storenvy.com
My Etsy store will primarily have just sets available from now on.

I hope you guys love this collection!! I would love to hear which ones you guys like/any other thoughts, so feel free to drop me a line in the comments below :).

The Birthday Girl Collection LE

 Hey there everyone! First and foremost, I would like to give a BIG thank you to everyone who participated in my Giveaway! I am truly amazed that I went from 34 members to 200 in less than a week! You guys are awesome!!! Also, thank you all for your birthday wishes! <3 

So as you all know, today is my birthday and I will be releasing The Birthday Girl Collection. As my way of thanking you all, anyone who makes a purchase today will receive an email with a coupon code for a % off of their next purchase!! 

I have decided to broaden my horizons a little bit, so I am launching this new collection in my brand new SHOP. My Etsy store will still remain open, but the Birthday collection will only be available here (for the time being). 

Before I introduce the polishes, I have a tiny bit of bad news. The polishes in this collection are going to be Limited Edition. Unfortunately, some of the glitters used in these polishes are no longer available, and there is no telling if/when they'll be back. But hopefully I have enough to accommodate everyone :)!!

I'm sure the title of the collection makes it very apparent that this whole collection is themed after ME! So lets get to it!

First up we've got Daddy's Girl. The name is pretty self-explanatory, I am a typical daddy's girl! Daddy's Girl has got black square, pink hex, white bar, silver extra fine, and LOTS of shimmer, all in a clear base. This one is super fabulous and can be layered over many different colors!

         
Next up we've got Flower Girl. Its actually kind-of weird, but before I moved into my current apartment last August, I unknowingly bought a bunch of random flower decorations for my room. I didn't even plan to have a 'flower theme' but somehow thats what happened LOL! I have a flower lamp, a painting with flowers on it, a beaded flower wall decoration, an actual vase with (fake) flowers, a flowery duvet, AND a shower curtain with flowers! How crazy is that! I'll post pictures of my flower things on my Twitter later today for you guys :)! But anyways, Flower Girl is a really pretty polish which has holographic turquoise, holographic pink, large green, small red, orange and gold bar, as well as purple blossom glitter, all in a translucent pink base. 
                                     

Next up we have a unique and interesting polish called Ice Queen. Although I am probably one of the nicest people you'll ever meet, you definitely don't want to get on my bad side, and if you're on my bad side, you don't wanna tick me off...just sayin :). This one is full of holographic black glitter, silver and periwinkle glitter, as well as white stars and baby blue blossoms, all in a clear base. I'm currently wearing this one layered over a nude and I LOVE it! 
                                          
                                 

The next polish in this collection is called Little Miss Sunshine. On most days, I feel like this describes me. I'm usually a pretty cheerful person AND sunshine is my favorite word, random I know! This polish is full of pink and yellow blossom glitter, matte white hex and matte pink hex, white and orange bar glitter, as well as pink microfine glitter, all in a clear base. I have been so into floral printed dresses lately, and I know this polish will be PERFECT for florally summer dresses! 

                                 

The last polish I have in this collection is called Monsta Love. When you love someone so much that a meager "I love you" just doesn't seem to cut it, tell them "I MONSTA love you" ;-) <3. This polish has so much depth and if I HAD to pick a favorite of the collection, I'm pretty sure I would pick this one. Monsta Love contains various sizes of lavender glitters, various shapes and sizes of purple glitter, holographic purple glitter, red bar glitter, red shard glitter, large hot pink, AND red hearts! 

                                 

As I mentioned above, this entire collection will ONLY be available in my new shop. 

Minis are $4.85
Full-Sizes are $8.50
They are also available as sets! 

I want to see all of your creative layering combos! Share a picture on my Facebook or Tweet me a picture!!

I hope you guys like this collection and I'd love to hear which polish YOU like best!

Thank you ALL again for all of your support <3 <3 <3
