J Sapphire and Hard Candy Hick

By Marijonails @marijonails
Hi everyone!!
A few months ago, I saw a new brand in a beauty supply store I frequent called J.  Of course, I had to pick up a couple to give them a try.  Today, I'm sharing Sapphire with you, a simple blue creme.

Sapphire's formula is really good.  It applies easily and is opaque in two coats.  I decided to pair it with Hardy Candy Hick, which I received from Liane sometime last year.  Apparently it's a HTF and I love it, so I'm super excited that Liane sent it to me.
Hick is a blue shimmer base with lots of silver microglitter.  It has a great formula and is opaque in three coats.  On my ring finger, I applied three coats on its own.  I attempted a gradient on my other nails over Sapphire.

I love these two together!!  The sparkly goodness of Hick really pops against the richness of Sapphire.  Both polishes are awesome.  They definitely got rid of my Monday Blues ;0).
What do you guys think of this mani?  Have you ever seen or tried J polishes?  Did you ever pick up Hick?
