Dr.'s Remedy - Jolly & Joy Collection - Part 1

Today I have for you the three shimmers from Dr.'s Remedy Jolly & Joy collection. I'm really loving this brand so far. Not only are the colors gorgeous, but they are also good for the nails. They are all B3F and enriched with good stuff such as Tea Tree Oil and garlic bulb extract which have anti-fungal properties. Perfect for pedicures? They also contain vitamins C and E along with wheat protein for healthier nails.


Revive Ruby Red - A darkened red with a beautiful golden copper shimmer. It has a very classy holiday look to it. Not a unique color in my collection, but one of my favorites. In the bottle it looks a lot like Zoya's Isla with a dash of coppery shimmer. It applied well despite the brush being a dud. My sad little brush is about 1/4 of the size of the rest of Dr.'s Remedy brushes so I'm pretty sure it was just my luck :)

Two coats with no top coat...

Passion Purple - A plum shimmer that applied beautifully in two easy coats. Just like the rest of the shimmers in this collection, it is shiny enough that I chose to skip the topcoat all together. This is probably my favorite from the shimmer half of the collection.

Since the collection is called Jolly & Joy, do you think the shimmers are the Jolly or the Joy part of the name? :)
