Barielle's New York Style 5 Pack

I picked up this 5 pack of Barielle polishes at my local Winners store.  Winners is a Canadian discount chain store; similar stores in the US are TJMax, Ross, Marshall's, etc.  These are my first Barielle polishes!

Big Apple Red is a true red creme polish with cool undertones. This has to be my favourite red in my collection!  Was opaque with two coats.

Soho at Night is a dusty grape purple, without being too dark.  I used 3 coats for full coverage.

Central Park is a dusty 'jade' green creme polish.  I have a bunch of greens in my collection, this one is very unique.  Was opaque with 2 coats.

Fifth Avenue Boutique is a beautiful coral leaning towards red.  It looks very similar to OPI's - A Definite Moust-Have.  This went on like a dream, opaque with 2 coats.

Date Night is a great deep green shimmer.  I achieved full opacity with 1 coat but used 2 coats for good measure :)

I definitely need some more Barielle in my life :)
