Bad Ass Polish America's Team

Today I have another polish from Bad Ass Polish's Are You Ready for Some Football line.  This polish was inspired by the Dallas Cowboys and is called America's Team. Bad Ass Polish describes this polish as "a combination of silver glitters with blue stars" which is a spot-on description. 
The swatches below show America's Team over a metallic blue and grey.  The ring finger (blue) shows one coat of this glittery goodness and the remaining fingers show 2 coats.
This layering polish has a clear base and lends itself to endless layering combinations!  I can totally see this over red for the 4th of July, Memorial Day, or Veterans' Day.  I also think this could be amazing over a light blue for Hanukkah.  Bad Ass Polish mentions that for a perfect  Dallas Cowboys manicure a white base is a favorite choice. 

The Verdict:
The clear base of the polish was a tad thick but not difficult to use. 
The silver glitter in this polish is evenly distributed and applies smoothly.  The blue stars require a bit of "fishing" and direct placement but many come out on the brush each time.  Of the two Are You Ready for Some Football polishes, this is my favorite because of the variegation of the silver glitter and versatility of this beauty.  I'm already planning when I will wear this one next:)

Bad Ass Polish Go Pack Go!

Are you a nail polish bad ass???  Then look no further because you may have just met your match!  Bad Ass Polish creates high-quality, handmade nail polish.  They are currently working on two lines of polish.  The first is their core line which currently consists of Bling! and Dusk.  They also have a growing football team inspired line called Are You Ready for Some Football.  Go Pack Go is part of this line by Bad Ass Polish and is inspired by the Green Bay Packers
Bad Ass Polish describes Go Pack Go as "a combination of small green glitter with some scattered tiny gold glitter along with some chunky gold glitter." 

 This polish is very versatile due to its clear base and can be used as a layering polish or can be built up for full coverage. I cannot wait to layer this over red to see how Christmas-y it looks! Also, this would be incredible for St. Patrick's Day!
The above swatches are over yellow and green polishes.  The swatches are of 1-2 swipe on each finger depending on how the gold glitter was applying.  It is evident that every detail of Bad Ass Polish was thought through, even the packaging! The packaging is practical, informative, and very unique. 
The Verdict:
The packaging was amazing and included a cute message and felt for easy removal.  I love the creativity of appealing to fans of particular teams!  The glitter in this polish is evenly distributed and applies smoothly.  The clear base of the polish was a tad thick and I will definitely add thinner the next time I use it.

ADDITIONALLY...

I was sent this polish, and others, to be reviewed and swatched.  There was a glitch with PayPal (or my address) and Amy of Bad Ass Polish was sure to keep me notified every step of the way.  I can only imagine the care that customers are given if something occurs with their order.  The care and communication that was given was top notch!

You can buy this lovely, themed polish from the Bad Ass Polish etsy page for $8.50.
