BFTE's Seafoam is a medium-bright aqua green. It's a bit more vivid than what I personally would call “seafoam”...but then again, my prom dress was “seafoam”, so I have a bit of 1980s color-scarring in my brain. (The two final-runner dresses that I chose between were…yep, seafoam and...
Viewed flat-on, the polish looks like a pretty-enough-but-flat-color burgundy. The multichrome is visible at slight angles, and along the curve of the nail bed. (So if you have longer nails, you'll see the effects a bit more visibly!) I had to use three coats for full opacity; but that's without...
GeiGei is a soft, spring pink. It's a pretty enough shade, not too vivid but not pale or washed out. I like the finish on this polish. I just didn't love its coverage! It was a little bit thin, and didn't spread evenly. I had this same problem with Geigei,...
Fyrinnae has mentioned at least two collections in the queue for 2013. This first one was themed around the makeup looks from the 1950s, with neutral or near-neutral eyes, low shimmer factor, and bold lips. If you’re a neutrals fan, this collection with its taupes and bronzes is right up...
An easy-to-wear combination of a rich brown, a clear green, and a neutral highlighter shade. All of these colors are cooler or have cool undertones, so if you have extremely warm skintones you might be better off passing on this particular kit. But if you’re borderline warm-neutral, or have...
I’ve only just started buying Color Club polishes. I dipped my toe with the Halo Hues shades, then started looking at what else was available. The In True Fashion collection was released for fall 2012, The overall palette has some similarities to Zoya’s Designer and Gloss collections - not...
Dark enough for an accent or shading color, but not necessarily dark enough to easily use as a liner. The color looks just slightly warm in the pot, like it might be a brownish charcoal; but when applied I just see the neutral medium-deep grey tones. Foiled application has a...
I love it! It's a medium yellow that's not semisheer, not neon-vibrant, doesn't disappear on the lids. It shows a rich corn-on-the-cob yellow, it's got a lovely satin-pearl finish, and it's part of the regular line. No need to worry about buying a certain limited-edition kit, no need to put...
Not quite a sheer color, but definitely a pastel-ish shade. The opacity is just barely not 100%, this color isn't sheer or even semisheer, but it's not totally opaque. The opacity can be increased by adding a second layer, but the color intensity doesn't really increase. You can amp up the...
This is an extremely soft pigment. It isn't sheer, the color just looks much lighter when applied versus in the pot or vial. As with most MAC metallic pigments, I get a similar application and finish whether I apply it dry or wet. If you love soft neutrals and near-neutrals,...
