Losing my Indie Virginity: My first Indie Experience!

Ok, so after listening to my friends on Facebook obsess over Indie polishes I decided that maybe they really were worth all of the hype and I should give them a try. I stumbled across Hit Polish by D&R Apothecary on Etsy and saw that they were having a sale and their mi is were super cheap. I figured that if I ordered a few mini bottles, at a good price, I wouldn't be too bitter if I didn't love them

I ordered 5 mini bottles and it was just at $15.00 once shipping was included...very affordable....after only about 4 days wait they arrived in my mailbox in an adorable little box...

 

The inside was full of packing peanuts to assure that my little darlings would make it safely to my house, and my packing slip included a handwritten note. I appreciated that a lot...:)

The mini bottles were bubbles wrapped in a wild zebra print bag, I also thought that this was a cute and personal touch...

Again, to ensure safety, each individual polish was sealed in a tiny Ziploc bag in case there was any leakage...

 

Overall, I can say that I was greatly impressed by the attention to detail and the extra precautions that were taken to make sure that my order arrived problem-free. Something you don't get from big corporations....

So let's take a look at what I got...

The first color I opened was Turq-Ish Delight. This is a beautiful,bright blue base with blue, pink, and various other glitters in it...

Next, I chose a gray base with red, blue, and yellow glitter in it called Concrete Jungle...

The next polish was a no-brainer for me as it was was named after my all-time favorite cookies...Oatmeal Raisin Cookies is a brown base with chocolate brown and copper glitters inside...

Next is Green Kryptonite, a dark gray base with a mixture of green glitters...

Last but not least is Mirage. This tan base with bright blue glitters reminds me of a beautiful day at the beach...absolutely gorgeous!

I can say that the formula is just as good as any store bought polish and these are some of the more unique colors that I own now. I am sure that not all independent polish makers are as affordable, concerned with quality, and personable as this vendor but as they say, if it isn't broke, don't fix it...

Therefore I am heading to her website now to see if I find any more minis to bring home!!!
