Hangin' On Like a YoYo

Good morning everyone! Happy Friday! Wake me up before you go-go, don't keep me hangin' on like a yo-yo... Yeah I've had that stuck in my head off and on since I swatched this beauty. Thanks April. ;) But really, who doesn't love a little Wham! on a Friday morning? 

Today I have a swatch and review of a super fun glitter indie polish called Hangin' On Like a YoYo by Pipe Dream Polish. April describes this polish as medium matte teal, periwinkle, yellow, and aqua glitters in a neon coral base. And she means neon coral when she says NEON coral. This one is bright and extremely fun. On my fair (pasty) skin tone this pulled a little more coral than pink, but in person it leans more pink. 

As with all of the Pipe Dream polishes that I've tried, the application is a dream. The glitters distribute evenly with no effort, the layers are easy to apply thinly so you can get that great "jelly sandwich" look. If you love bright, fun, color combos in your polishes, you NEED this one. It's fantastic. I didn't get a pic of this in full sun, but that's probably a good thing. I think all of the neon goodness might have given my camera a seizure.

This is 3 thin coats of Hangin' On Like a YoYo with one coat of Glossy Glam on top. All in all I love this polish, but I'm not sure it's something I will wear very often. While I LOVE bright polishes, I rarely wear them for any length of time. I'm not sure why, I just get tired of them after a while. No matter how awesome they are. 

What do you all think? Isn't this the perfect mix of glitters for this base? I love it. 

Pipe Dream Polish can be purchased through their Etsy store here. Her new fall collection releases today, you should go check them out! From the preview pictures I've seen, they are GORGEOUS! I'm buying them all!

Until next time!
