Sugarpill Ice Angel Nail Polish ($10.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a “blend of snow white flecks in varying sizes.” It’s flecks of multi-sized white pieces suspended in a clear base, and it does look a lot like snow applied. It was designed to be layered over The Inventory or used alone, and it actually applied a lot better than I expected–the “snow” really disperses evenly across the nail without getting too many large pieces in one area or bald spots. A single coat is shown on my thumb nail, and the effect is noticeable, even, and pretty much true-to-description. I also tried it layered in various ways over the dark gray coordinating shade–kind of in the theme of a blizzard, a flurry, and a sprinkling of snow. It actually seemed smoother than the glitter in The Inventory and has a more noticeable shine (without a top coat). I don’t have any dupes to share with you, but I’m sure there are some out there! Sugarpill’s polish formula lasts seven days on me with minor tip wear but no chipping.

Sugarpill The Inventor Nail Polish ($10.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a “pinch of silver glitter mixed in a dark steel gray base.” It’s a dark gray with subtle, cooler undertones and what looks like muted, gold micro-glitter and some silver glitter. It was fully opaque after two coats of polish, and the consistency was a little thicker but didn’t pool along the edges so it was manageable. It had a moderate dry down time, and it dried down to a slight shine, but I would recommend a top coat for this one. I’d also say to opt for a thicker top coat, as the micro-glitter creates a sense of texture on the nail. Sugarpill’s polish formula lasts seven days on me with minor tip wear but no chipping. Zoya Yuna (P, $9.00) is lighter, warmer (85% similar). MAC Grey Friday (LE, $16.00) is more shimmery, less glossy (85% similar). China Glaze Stone Cold (LE, $7.50) is more shimmery, darker (85% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

Aww! I skipped the lacquers! I did order the palette last nigh though. I’ll have to think if I want to pay for the extra shipping. Now I wished I would have gotten the package deal. Bummer. These look so cool both together and alone.

I had to remedy the situation since you gave these the stamp of approval. I ordered both.
I have to mention this since their was a post about the importance customer service earlier in the blog: I didn’t even ask. This was my fist ever Sugarpill order so I am very impressed. But, someone in customer service caught that I did not get the bundle deal and refunded me $10. So, not an hour after I ordered the lacquers , I received an email stating that I was getting a credit for $4for the bundle and $6 for the extra shipping fee. That is awesome customer service!

I think a light splash of the snowflake one might be pretty over other polishes, like a sky blue or gray color. I wish it was iridescent or holographic, to create a cool wintry feel. The Inventor looks gritty, like the color has been dipped in sand –it looks more rocker chic to me

Lovely wintery feeling mani! These look perfect together and definitely something I would love to do on my own nails! Out of the two, I would say that Ice Angel is a must-have for me personally, I can envision it over a dusky blue for a twilight snow flurry vibe.

Ice Angel is just gorgeous! I’m usually not too fond of glitter polish just by itself, but it looks really glam yet understated; love it! 🙂
