This is Just and Loyal.  It's inspired by the Hufflepuff House in the Harry Potter series.  If you didn't know, Pam is a huge Harry Potter fan and has several polishes inspired by the movies and books.  This one is a bright, happy, shimmery yellow with black matte square glitters.  I do love me some HP and yellow polish so this is two thumbs up in my book.  Formula was a bit thin, so I did have to dig a little for the glitter squares (thankfully not too hard since I ended up with plenty on my nails).  I used 3 coats, you can still see a little of my nail line.  Finished with topcoat.

Northern Lights is a beautiful blue jelly polish full of blue flakies, and red to gold shifty shimmer.  The flakies and shimmer are so pretty in this polish!  I can just imagine the different blues of the sky as it grows from dusk to night.  Since this is a jelly polish it does lean to the very sheer side.  I think next time I wear this I might try layering it over a similar base shade.  4 coats and topcoat to finish.  

The final polish I have to share with you has always been one of my favorite SC's.  A Dragon Is Not A Slave was inspired by Rhaegal, one of Khaleesi's dragons in Game of Thrones.  It's a fabulous lime green jelly full of gold holo glitters.  If you love sparkles then this is definitely a great polish for you.  Formula and application were both great.  I used 3 coats and topcoat for extra shine.
