Hit Polish Mr. Bubbles

As a kid, I loved bubble baths! I grew up using Mr. Bubble products. I remember I even had a Mr. Bubble book and the character of the book was specially named after me! So naturally, I had to have Hit Polish Mr. Bubbles! I had been wanting it for some time but only recently got it in my first order from Hit Polish. Here it is!


Mr. Bubbles colors consist of medium sized pink and blue hexes, small white, blue, and pink hexes, and pink and blue squares. All of the glitters are matte. The color combination is simple but amazing! I LOVE it, it's so cute. I layered it over two coats of Essie Coat Azure. It was the best blue I had for layering. I think it makes for a great base but it is a little hard to see the blue glitters in my pics. They pop off the nail more in person. I think it would look pretty great over pink, white, and maybe even black. My pictures were taken in my room, which doesn't have the best lighting, so these are a little washed out. The pink for example is much more vibrant in person. Formula wise, it was fantastic. What you see is just one coat! I shouldn't be surprised as the other two that I've worn from Hit Polish had great formulas.



So not only is Mr. Bubbles special to me for nostalgic reasons, it's just a straight up cute glitter! I'm really happy to have it in my collection. I will definitely play around with it and try it over other bases.

If you didn't see my previous post, Hit Polish is having an incredible 50% off sale to make room for new inventory! Sadly, Mr. Bubbles is no longer in stock and I don't know if it's coming back, but there are a lot of other colors up for grabs. Have a great day!

Hard Candy Sweet Tooth & Pixie Pink

Today I have the last group of my Hard Candy Candy Sprinkles polishes to show you! They are Sweet Tooth and Pixie Pink, the most girly shades of the bunch.


Sweet Tooth is a Nails Inc Sweets Way dupe. It is a milky white base with pink, white, and blue glitter. It was the most sheer out of the others, but I don't care, I love it! Aside from Gummy Green, it is my favorite from the collection. Pixie Pink has the same colored glitter in it as Sweet Tooth, but instead it's in a light milky pink base. I like it, it's pretty.

Formula wise, they were as good as the others. Easy to apply and fast drying. Since Sweet Tooth was more sheer, I used three coats. I only used two for Pixie Pink.


So that's all of the Candy Sprinkles polishes that I have for you! I love them and I highly recommend them.

Hard Candy Sugar Rush & Jelly Bean Blue

Today I have more of the Hard Candy Candy Sprinkles polishes to share! This time the colors I paired together are Sugar Rush and Jelly Bean Blue.


Sugar Rush is a white polish packed with black and silver glitter. It totally reminds me of Cookies & Cream ice cream. Jelly Bean Blue is a light blue base with blue and black glitter. I love both of them!

As with the two other polishes from the Candy Sprinkles line that I've worn, these ones were easy to apply, fast drying, and I was able to reach opacity in just two coats. I only needed two coats of top coat to make them smooth.


I have yet to be disappointed with the Candy Sprinkles polishes! If you want them for yourself, all 9 shades are available at Walmart and retail for around $4.

China Glaze Frosty

I decided for my next manicure I wanted to wear a clean and and refreshing color. I went with China Glaze Frosty, a shimmery white.

I wanted Frosty the most from 'Tis The Season To Be Nice And Naughty collection. It must have been popular, because it was always gone. It wasn't until summer that I got lucky. I was looking through a "last chance" basket of colors and there it was, so of course I couldn't leave without it. It's an awesome feeling when you find the color you've been lemming for.

This white is the furthest thing from boring. It has silver white shimmer/glitter and dries smooth. It has a soft, delicate look and it reminds me of white, fluffy marshmallows. It was sheer on the first coat, but it was perfect on the third. I used my Color Club Vivid Intensifying Top Coat and I honestly think it took away the beauty from the polish because of the tinted base. It's subtle, but noticeable to me.

I'm not very pleased with the pictures I have which sucks because it's a really beautiful polish. They were taken on the fifth day of wear and up until then there were no significant chips, just minor tip wear. A few hours before I decided to take pictures, almost all of the polish on my index finger chipped off. I cropped it out in each picture, so it didn't leave me with many options when it came to choosing what ones to post. They aren't the best quality either. The polish is a million times more beautiful then depicted here.





I wish I had more pictures to share with you! It's such a gorgeous white that I recommend to anyone. I'll get around to reviewing the other Christmas colors that I have from this collection. Thanks for reading!
