Bundlemonster - Wonderland collection (swatches and review)

Hi guys! Today I have the Wonderland collection from Bundlemonster to share with you! I have to admit, I had no idea that Bundlemonster made regular nail polish... I always thought they only made stamping polish. I clearly never researched them...and I am stupid for that! Their nail polishes are awesome!


The Wonderland collection is a set of six "winter" colored nail polishes. It has a nice range of finishes from cremes and metallics to glitters!



Let's get started....

Frostbite is a beautiful metallic silver creme. It had a great formula and only took two coats to be opaque. I have a hard time with metallics as they generally look really streaky on me. Unfortunately, this one did too, though not nearly as bad as a few others I've tried. I always recommend people with this issue, sponge on their last coat as this takes the streaks away. Did I take my own advice...no. Why? I don't know..haha! Either way, it is a gorgeous color.





Neve is a gorgeous creme white, packed full of an amazing golden shimmery flash, which is super apparent in the macro! So pretty! This formula was awesome! Two coats plus topcoat! No streakiness and the formula was super smooth!





Winter Blue is a gorgeous, sort of dusty, teal creme. The formula on this one was awesome as well! The first coat didn't look very good, but the second smoothed it out perfectly! I think this will be a great color for spring and summer too!





Sparkling Pine is an amazing full coverage glitter! It is a green colored base packed full of different shades of green and golden glitters! It is gorgeous! For my photos I did a tape mani by applying one coat over Frostbite! Loving these two together! (I made a video tutorial for this one; you can view it here)





Bubbly Rose! oh....Bubby Rose is so beautiful! It is another full coverage glitter that starts with a slightly pink tinted base and is again, jam packed with shades of rosey pink, gold and silvery glitters! This is seriously gorgeous! For my photos I started with a base of Neve, then stamped a flower image using Winter Blue. I finished it off by sponging Bubbly Rose onto just the tips of my nails!





New Year's Eve is the last polish and full coverage glitter in the collection. It is clear base loaded with different shades of gold (and silver I think) glitters! So gorgeous! For my photos I used Winter Blue as my base and stamped a tribal image using Neve, then added a subtle glitter gradient of New Year's Eve!





Now, I know these are full coverage glitters, but I feel like I haven't seen them used in any nail art yet. I've only seen the full coverage swatches, so I wanted to step outside the box and show you how you can use them with the other polishes in the collection.

I really loved all of these and was really impressed by the formulas! I like that they can all be worn alone, mixed with other colors and some of them can be used to stamp with! Triple threat? haha!

You can purchase these and more directly from Bundlemonster!

  1. Huh, I never knew they made regular nail polish either. Learn something new every day! I think my favorites though are the glitters.
