Bitch Glitz Cosmetics Dark Side of Town Collection: Resident Evil

Hiya Lovelies! It's a little later than anticipated, but here is my second post of the day!

A few weeks ago while browsing Etsy, I stumbled upon a new Indie Brand called Bitch Glitz. Since there is no way you can avoid checking out a brand with a name as awesome as that, I immediately checked out the store and placed an order. Since then I have been lucky enough to befriend Ketlyn, the mastermind behind BG Cosmetics, and have fallen in love with the brand and just adore the person behind it.

Today's polish is from the Dark Side of Town Collection. Resident Evil (man, I love those movies, and the games!) is an awesome mix of Black Bar, Hex, square, and the occasional large Round glitter in a deep, shimmery burgundy red base. Hidden in the mix are some red star glitters as well. I've been dying to wear this baby and finally decided swatch schedule be damned, this is going on my nails!

All photos are 3 coas of Resident Evil topped with Gelous and HK Girl Top Coat (note: even though my pics make this look a but bumpy in places, that's actually some of the star glitter poking through. My camera had a hard time capturing those, but if you look closely, you'll see them):

I really wish that I was able to capture the depth of this polish, but it's all but impossible. IRL the glitters really shine, and the burgundy red base is vibrant and stunning. I am so glad that I took the plunge and bought this collection!

Formula:
As with most Indie polish, Resident Evil is thicker than mainstream polish, but is still smooth and buttery. No thickening during use, no glopping, and no clumpy glitters.

Application:
Resident Evil applied smoothly and evenly. Although it is a bit streaky on the first coat it evens out perfectly with the second. No dragging, balding, or glopping. The glitters placed nicely, although if you want more of the large round glitters you may have to fish a bit. I managed to grab at least 2 for each hand, although I wanted to show those off so I grabbed one for each nail during my last coat. RE will reach opacity with 2 coats, however I added a third since I banged a nail against the table and needed a quick fix.;) Resident Evil doesn't dry all that textured, but I added a coat of Gelous to ensure a smooth finish.

Despite being a very new Indie Brand, Bitch Glitz makes some very impressive polishes. If you aren't familiar with Indie Polishes and their formula, you may find application a bit tricky, but if you go slow and use thin coats then you'll have no problem.

All Bitch Glitz Cosmetics poishes are 3-free and made with top quality ingredients, including a dash of diamond dust! Full size bottles retial for $10.00, full collections for $35. Ketlyn is also amazing at custom creations (I'll be showing you 2 that she created for me this week) so if you have a polish in mind, shoot her a note! She'll definitely be able to bring your vision to life.
