MDJ Creations Review

 Press Sample / Purchased By Me 

Hi everyone! I hope you're all doing well. Today I have a review for you guys.

A while back I was asked by Melissa, owner of MDJ Creations, if I'd be interested in reviewing some of her polishes. I said I'd be happy to, and here's what she sent.
First up we have More Than Meets The Eye which is part of her A Night Out Collection. It's a light gray crelly with various sized hex glitters in a variety of pinks, silver holo shimmer glitter, tiny silver holo bars, and colorful flakies. I actually like the combination of pinks and gray, they go well together. The polish went on nicely without struggle, and it dried pretty fast too. I turned the bottle upside down for a while before applying, and I didn't have to fish for glitter. The pictures show 2 coats plus top coat, and matte top coat on the ring finger.

Next is Cappuccino, a beautiful golden caramel holo polish which is part of the Dessert Duo. This polish went on so smoothly, I absolutely loved it. The pictures show 2 coats plus top coat, and matte top coat on the ring finger.

I thought it was so pretty, I just had to pair it with MDJ Creations' "Leg Warmers" (which I purchased during Melissa's Black Friday sale). They go together beautifully, don't you think?

Lastly, we have the cuticle oil. Melissa sent me the Honeysuckle Cuticle Oil, the label says it includes 'Therapeutic Frankincense and Lavender Oil'. Honestly, this scent isn't really for me. The scent choosing is about preference though, so that would be all up to what you'd like. Even though I did not enjoy the smell, I very much liked how it made my cuticles feel, especially because I didn't have to use so much to moisturize. A little goes a long way guys. Putting less than a drop per finger was perfect because it didn't leave my fingers all oily. I just massaged the oil into my cuticles and let my skin absorb it. Basically, I thought the cuticle oil was good, it did its job and that's what counts.

This is my first time using MDJ Creations' products, and I have to say I'm quite impressed. The polish formulas were great, and the cuticle oil worked well. I've linked Melissa's store and Instagram below in case you're interested. Please know that her store is currently on Christmas break, but it'll open back up on January 14th, 2016. If you'd like to be notified by email when the shop re-opens, you can go to the store and sign up by clicking on the blue button, you can't miss it.
