BadAss Polish Chocolate Covered Cherry and Copper Waters Reviews & Swatches

Hey everyone! I'm still here, I promise! ;) I think I've moved over my slump and am ready to swatch the night away! :P Thank you everyone who messaged, emailed and commented. I have just been overly stressed lately and blogging was the last thing on my mind. Going forward I may not have posts up early or everyday, just so I can get a bit of breathing room I need here and there. Don't get me wrong I love blogging, it's just sometimes other things are more important and come first and I have to push myself to not put a million things on my plate at once! :)


I wanted to first note on BadAss's packaging. They use these tubes to ship each polish in a wrap the bottle with felt. Not only does the felt offer protection, you can use it to remove glittery polishes! :D
Chocolate Covered Cherry is a combination of micro bronze and pink holographic glitter. All nails are 4 coats with a top coat of Seche Vite.
For neither of these polishes was I able to capture the true sparkle they throw off in the sunlight. :( But I can attest to them being amazing in the sun! Formula of Chocolate Covered Cherry was perfect; I clearly had no trouble getting any glitter out! :P It also dried quickly and even though I used 4 coats to build up the color to be opaque, it can be used as just a "glitter topper" if you prefer. It dried with a matte look, but one coat of Seche Vite helped that out. I know in my close up photo it still looks "gritty", but macros show way more than I could see with my naked eye. ;) The color is beautiful and the added pink holographic glitters really pop against the other darker glitters.
Copper Waters is a mixture of micro copper and bright blue holographic glitters. I used 4 coats with a top coat of Seche Vite.
Formula for Copper Waters was the same as Chocolate Covered Cherry, but I was able to catch a little more sparkle in these photos. ;) Again, even though I built this color up, it works just as well over another color. :) Also remember I use thinner coats, so my 4 coats maybe a 3 normal coats. Even with so many coats it had zero problems drying quickly. I love this color, those blue holographic glitters are to die for!
