Icings Charlie Sheen Nail Polish Collection

Recently Icings stores came out with three nail polishes with names reminiscent of Charlie Sheen phrases. It is not a collaboration but rather inspired by the crazy antics of Charlie Sheen. All three polishes are full of glitter but sheer. They look great layered but for these swatches they are on their own.

First up is Tiger's Blood.

In the Sun (4 coats)

Tiger's Blood is a sheer red base loaded with gold glitter flakies.  This polish is awesome! I love the glitter. I know it is a dupe for Cult Nails Captivated, which I wanted to get instead but it is sold out and not coming back. The formula wasn't perfect but it wasn't bad. The pictures show what it looks like with 4 coats but for this polish I could have gotten away with 3. It was totally worth it for a polish this pretty. This is my favorite of the collection.

Next is Epic Winning.

Epic Winning is pure glitter. It contains navy and white holographic glitter. It is sheer as well. Formula is fine. It helps to wait in between coats but I never have the patience for that. If you wanted to layer it with less coats it would look great over any blue polish. This is my second favorite. It is a pain to remove but it certainly is winning.

Finally the last one is named Rockstar From Mars.

Inside (6 coats!)

Rockstar From Mars is a very clear turquoise blue base with gold/yellow glitter. It looks amazing in the bottle but disappointing on the nail. It looks unique but it doesn't seem anywhere near opaque. I tried 7 coats after pictures but still not completely opaque. I don't mind doing a lot of coats in a manicure if it gets opaque. Honestly four coats for opaqueness doesn't lessen my opinion of a polish. But six coats and still not close to opaque annoys me. I did think it was sheer when I bought it though. I'm sure I'll like it as a layering polish though. 

Overall, I really like this collection. Rockstar from Mars was the only disappointment on its own. The other two I loved. All polishes would look great layered. Icings polishes are usually $4.50 but sometimes buy one get one half off (they were when I got mine). I love the names. I imagine if Charlie Sheen were a nail polish he would be full of glitter and sheer (just to annoy people to try to get him opaque). 

Thanks for reading!
