Savvy Naturalista Review & Swatches


Hi guys. How's it going today? Welp wish it was better on this slice of the world. Remember how a few weeks ago I had a broken pipe in the basement, well the hot water heater decided it was time to go. That timing though. It's been a long and stressful couple of days, but I am so glad to have my nail corner to find some escape. Thankfully I had some beautiful polishes waiting to cheer me up and they certainly did that tenfold. Today I'll be sharing swatches for some polishes from Savvy Naturalista, a small indie that specializes in all natural beauty products.

Savvy Naturalista Review & Swatches

The three polishes that I am blogging about today can already be found in shop for purchase. Each polish is sold individually and retails for $8.00 for a full size bottle.

Savvy Naturalista - Strawberry Blast

Strawberry Blast is a bright red jelly polish filled with small black micro glitters. How adorable is this polish? Especially with how delightfully squishy the finish looks! As a jelly finish, the formula is obviously very sheer but it is also very thin. This ends up greatly factoring in for the ease of application when it comes to the multiple layering. I ended up opting to use an extra layer for a more opaque finish, but you can get away with simply using two to three for that perfect sheer jelly look. Shown here in three to four thin coats with one coat of Seche Vite topcoat.

Savvy Naturalista - Moon Cosmic Blast 2.0

Moon Cosmic Blast 2.0 is a blue shimmering jelly filled with hex and micro holo glitters. Now I was really hesitant with simply calling this one a jelly because of how opaque it was in one coat. I almost am dared to think it's magic in a bottle! Definitely have to call this one a must-have. Formula and consistency are great, not too thick or too thin. The color tone looks fantastic against my skin complexion as well. Shown here is two coats. The finish dries slightly textured due to the glitters, but smooths out easily with a topcoat.

Creamy Cookies is an off-white crelly filled with black micro glitters. One word: adorable! Again, another shade I was immediately drawn towards from the bottle. I'll actually be sharing some nail art inspired by this crelly cutie later on today. Formula and consistency were great, again no issues during the application. This polish is sheer, but it builds up and self levels perfectly. Swatched here in two to three coats and sealed with Seche Vite topcoat.

Overall I did find myself feeling impressed with these polishes from Savvy Naturalista as a first time user. I almost feel like I am gushing throughout this review, but that's because I am. The formulas throughout are very easy to work with and gave me no issues with the applications. Definitely recommend Moon Cosmic Blast 2.0 especially if you have an affinity towards blue shade like I do.

What do you guys think? Which one is your favorite shade?

  1. I love Strawberry Blast! It reminds me of Strawberry from The Hungry Asian except that one is a creme.

    1. That's the one it reminded me of too! That was my very first indie polish, it's so nice that this one is a jelly as opposed to a creme though.

    I feel your pain as a homeowner--leaky toilet in the tenant's bathroom leaked into ours a couple weeks ago. Ugh.
