Meow Cosmetics’ Treasure

Meow Cosmetics’ Treasure

A slightly cool gold, rather than a gold with a fairly noticeable green cast. (I don't love the latter, and the feeling is mutual.) In the pot, it reminded me a little bit of Oberon, from Aromaleigh v1's Midsummer Night's Dream collection. The yellow isn't quite as bright, though,...

Neutral, barely-warm with a near-shimmer finish. The color reminds me of The SheSpace's Pearls of Wisdom, and a bit of Powder Burn (but not as deep a shade.)

It looks like it has some cool undertones; and application definitely shows more of the pink than any buff tones. It reminds me a bit of Kiss, from the first Pure Eyes Matte collection.

On the border between cool brown, and raisin-purple. In some lighting it leans more solidly one way or the other. Under my daybulb, I can't see much of the purple tones; but under regular indoor lighting (regular bulbs) it's a little more visible.

This shade was one of my first choices from this collection. I love the color, but it has the thinnest coverage of all the textured polishes. With two coats, you can still see quite a bit of the nail showing through.

Looks a bit like Specialita's Artsy, but without the brown tones. The polish is thinner, and requires several coats for full opacity and effects. (That seems to be the one weakness of most duochrome/multichrome polishes: they need at least two coats even over a dark creme polish, and need...

Looks like dark chocolate, or coffee. Slightly similar to Zoya's Angelina, without the blackening that shade has. No shimmer finish whatsoever, no red or yellow tones, just cool rich brown.

A really attractive neutral. I was initially worried that it might be a bit too yellow for me, but…this color looks really good on me. (As a bonus, it pairs spectacularly with Pepper, Hunter, or Sailor.)

Deep red, good coverage, no thin spots. I picked this color up, and it definitely has better coverage than Vespa or Nyx, but I'm not sure how much I like it. The combination of texture-plus-this-exact-shade is a little much for me. I might be able to use this for a...
