Your Web or Mine?
A shimmery rose pink with a hint of coral. It applied easily with full coverage in just two coats. There are some brush strokes that are visible so it needs careful application. This color slightly pales in comparison to other colors in this collection, but on it's own is a sweet color.

Into the Night
A shimmery metallic blue. Looking at the bottle I expected the color to be very dark and pigmented. I was surprised that it came out lighter than bottle color and very sheer. The color is just gorgeous and the formula does build up to full coverage in three coats. The only other issue I had was getting it to wrap around the tips. I think I won that battle in the end and the color is definitely worth it...

Call Me Gwen-Ever
A coral orange cream. It is a bit more muted and softer than other orange polishes coming out lately. This makes it more flattering and wearable for my skin tone. The formula can't be better. Applies very smooth and even. Two coats for full coverage as seen here.

Just Spotted the Lizard
A gold/green duochrome. I think this color needs no explanation, just photos. The formula is great. I used three coats for full coverage. You can see a bit of the brush strokes, but nothing that careful application won't take care of. This is said to be a dupe of Chanel Peridot which was a leming of mine that I'm too cheap to buy so I would rather buy 2 bottles of OPI instead! From comparison swatches I've seen, I really can't tell the difference. I wore this polish for the majority of my trip to Chicago and love it :)

My Boyfriend Scales Walls
A soft white cream with a hint of gray. The gray makes it a very wearable and not quite as harsh as pure white. I am seriously in love with this polish. The formula is very smooth and easy to apply. It is opaque in two coats, but I ended up using three for these swatches...

Number One Nemesis
A dark olive green polish with flecks of gold, green and blue. I could not stop staring at my nails when I was wearing this. It is very shiny and color reflecting in real life. Definitely a favorite of mine from this collection. I might go as far as to say it is the favorite from this collection. It starts out a bit sheer, but builds up to full coverage in three coats.

Shatter The Scales
An emerald green glittery shatter. I love this new glitter twist on a shatter. It is something new and unusual. Personally I love it. It cracked/shattered with no problems. Dries matte, but the true magic is with a top coat when the glitter just lights up. I layered it over a few of the colors from this collection.
over Your Web or Mine?...
over Into the Night...
over Call me Gwen-Ever... love this combination!!
over Just Spotted the Lizard... I'm just going to stare this for a while and wear it for a few days if you don't mind...

ReplyDelete"Call Me Gwen-Ever" и "Just Spotted the Lizard" понравились!)
ReplyDeleteI got into the night and my boyfriend scales walls today. I want to get just spotted the lizard, but my store ran out. I love this collection! It's fun, but I wish there was a classic spiderman red in there.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful swatches!
ReplyDelete@Misch, thank you!
ReplyDelete@summer_breeze, ochen' horoshi vibor u tbeya! :)
@Brianna, hopefully your store will restock. It is a beautiful color. And I agree, a classic red would have been nice! :)
@Essie Rae, thank you! :)
This is the first time I've seen 'Your Web or Mine?' that I actually liked it. It seems a weird color to have in this collection and I'm surprised they chose pink instead of red. The pink looks good on you :) I'm waiting patiently to get my hands on 'Just Spotted the Lizard' as I have coupons that start on Monday.
ReplyDelete@SillyCR, I'm glad you like my swatches of 'Your Web or Mine?' It is kind of unexpected in this collection, but still a sweet color.
ReplyDeleteI admire you for having the patience to wait! Hope you are able to snag it on Monday :)
So while I'm not too excited about how all the shades in this collection 'vibe' together I did snatch up the orange one, "number one nemesis" and my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE "my boyfriend scales walls"... I am happy that I added these to my collection ;)
ReplyDeletelovely swatches as always
@Marta, it is funny that it doesn't "vibe" yet most color on their own I love :)
ReplyDeleteGreat review.. love the clear pics and how you also took the trouble to describe each individually. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm glad you find it useful! :D
ReplyDeleteHow do you apply the polish do perfectly??? Haha. Well I'm loving basically all of them...but only "Just Spotted The Lizard", "My Boyfriend Scales Walls", "Number One Nemesis", and the "Shatter the Scales" shatter are must haves...ooh and "Call Me Gwen-Ever"!!! They are all gorgeous but I expected a true red instead of another rosy color...and "Into The Night" is pretty too...I'll probably end up getting them all!!! Awesome swatches too!!! :D
ReplyDeleteYou are so sweet. I don't apply perfectly, I just clean up the mess when I'm done (http://wackylaki.blogspot.com/2012/02/tutorial-tuesday-clean-up.html)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean with this collection, it is so hard to pick favorites. Love them all :)
