Color Club's Total Mystery

Total Mystery is from the 2011 Alter Ego collection.  It is a bright blue polish with pink/purple microglitter.  It was difficult to work with, requiring 3 coats to achieve opacity. It was matte and I really didn't like the look so I put a coat of Seche Vite.  I wish I could have picked up the purple/pink microglitter in the pics.

Great polish, but a little difficult to work with...but totally worth it ;)

Color Club's The Uptown !

The Uptown is a purple jelly based multi-coloured flakie polish.  I think you could achieve opacity, or close to opacity, but I put it on top of China Glaze's Scandalous Shenanigans, a beautiful sapphire blue. I love the effect of of this flakie.  

This is the only polish I picked up from the 2013 Fall Girl About Town collection...the remaining ones never really caught my eye.

31DC2013: Day 19 is GALAXIES

It is kind of amazing that you use a handful of polishes and come up with something so cool.  I used China Glaze's Sea Spray, OPI's Suzi's Hungry Again, Sally Hansen's Black Out, Revlon's Stunning and Color Club First Looks.

Winter Affair by Color Club

I picked up these 4 minis from the 2012 Winter Affair collection from Color Club.

First up is Gift of Sparkle.  It is a shimmery purple based glitter with purple & red micro holographic glitter.  It has a lot going on...I love it!!

Berry & Bright is a red that has a glass fleck finish.  The shine is really intense.  Another winner.

Ho Ho Holly is a very rich green-gold foil polish.  Lovely!

Snowflakes is a flaky polish.  I put it over China Glaze's Call of the Wild.  Great Fall manicure.

I was really glad I picked these up, very impressive.  Great Winter/Holiday season polishes.

Color Club Shimmers and Duochromes

Here are 4 Color Club polishes is shimmers and duochromes. They were very fast drying.

Editorial is a gold green duochrome. Opaque in 2 coats.  Dupe for Chanel Pericot.

Port-folio another duochrome in purple green.  Opaque in 2 coats.

Model Behavior is a copper shimmer very bronzy.  Opaque in 2 coats.

First Looks is a black based blue shimmer.  Opaque in 2 coats.

These were great polishes to apply and what a great colour payoff!  Would recommend!

Blossoming Collection by Color Club

This collection includes 5 creme pastel colours and a silver glitter. It also included 0-60 speedy top coat.  While I loved the colours of this collection, I struggled with the application.  I had trouble with the leveling and hence the visible lines, as you can see in the pictures.  

'Blushing Rose' is a blue-based light pink.  This was the most difficult to apply, yet one of my favs of the lot.  I tried a top coat to see if that would make a difference with the non-leveling and streakiness, it did not.

'Blue-ming' is far from blue.  It is a unique lighter turqouise shade. My favorite.

'Hydrangea Kiss' is a pretty periwinkle.

'Lavendarling' is a light purple.  I have several very similar shades.

'Sweetpea' is a rosy purple.

'Diamond Drops' is a shard like glitter that I put over Sweetpea.

Would recommend this set based solely on the colours, but beware it is not an easy application patience is necessary! Something I don't usually possess :)

Blue-ming from Color Club

Color Club's Blue-ming is another beautiful colour!  The formula is pretty good, some nails it took 3 coats for full opacity.   I guess this would be classified as a mint green.  It is one of my favorite shades and I have purchased the same colour in different brands.  It looks even better on my toes...so go get some mint green polish and rock it as a pedicure this summer.
