Hey guys! Today's polish is from a brand that it totally new to me. It is my first Darling Diva polish, and I am super pleased with how it looks. Unfortunately this polish doesn't seem to be currently available as I checked on both Darling Diva's Etsy and Big Cartel shops and it's not there, sorry!
Witchy Woman is packed full of rainbow glitters in various shapes and sizes. My first impression of it was that it looked like it would be confetti on the nail. The base of the polish is a sheer black jelly and on it's own three coats works just fine, but I'm not partial to how it looks on it's own. I decided to layer it instead and love the look of it.
This is Witchy Woman over Color Club Wild Cactus, which I reviewed here. Because I wanted to get the most out of the glitter without changing the colour of my base polish too much, I used the sponge method for applying Witchy Woman. So I can't tell you how many "coats" this is necessarily, but I used about three swipes of the brush on the sponge and let it soak up the base a bit before sponging it over my nail. It went on quickly, and I was able to get a variety of the glitters on all my nails. To make removal easier, I used cuticle oil around my nail before sponging it on and cleanup was a breeze.
I think my favourite part of this polish are the tiny green glitters that sparkle and flash with every move of my fingers, even in low lighting. They really add a depth to the glitter that reminds me of a decked out, colourful Christmas tree. I think it would make an excellent topper over a variety of colours, especially when using the sponge method to soak up the black base.
Even with sponging it on, the glitter is very topcoat hungry. I used two thick layers of Seche Vite topcoat and it still wasn't completely smooth. Removal was made easy using my new favourite base Nail Pattern Boldness Glitter A-Peel.
Though Witchy Woman isn't available right now, there are lots of pretties in various finishes on their Etsy and Big Cartel shops and prices range from $8.00 - $12.00 USD per polish. Darling Diva does ship internationally and shipping to Canada starts at $9.50 per polish and it appears it's $1.25 per additional polish.
Do you own any Darling Diva polishes? Which ones would you pick from their store? Leave me a comment below and thanks for reading!
