Joe Fresh Style Nail Polish Swatches & Review
Joe “Fresh Style” Nail Polish hails from Toronto Canada and I happen to have a wonderful “hook-up” there who sent me a bunch of their polishes. Thank you Melli!
Joe nail polish comes in small little rounded bottles that are just 6 ml, but are bigger than a lot of other mini polish bottles. There is an issue with these bottles though. The brush applicators are SO short it makes them very hard to hold and control.
Aside from that, most of these have a really nice formula and cover in just two coats, so that is a good thing!
Fog
Fog is a medium/deep cement grey creme. Very nice color, I love grey creme polishes. Probably not the most original color on earth, but still nice!
Persian Blue
Persian Blue is a medium blue creme with a slightly dusty hue to it. I don’t have a lot of blues like this and think it’s quite chic.
Jade
Jade is a bright yet deep jade green creme. It’s very vivid and totally gorgeous. I think I could have used one more coat because I did have a bit of patchiness with this one. I think that’s due to me not letting the first coat dry enough though.
Moss
Moss is a dark mossy colored green creme. I mean really, who doesn’t love a moss green polish? I know I do!
Gunmetal
Gunmetal is a grey/brown base with very heavy silvery metallic shimmer with some blue and pink thrown in for good measure. Really nice and great coverage with this one.
Twilight
Twilight is a black base with iridescent flake chunks in it. This is the one that my eye immediately went towards when I first saw all the bottles. The black itself is a little thin and watery and I wish it was blacker. I love flakies though and don’t think I have one like this.

Have you tried any Joe nail polishes? Which are your favorites?

I have a bunch of these – really love Joe nail polishes! Their formula is great, and I like the inexpensive price, too.
For Twilight, I layer it over a black (usually China Glaze Liquid Leather) to make it more opaque. And I’ve seen someone layer it over a dark shimmery green to bring out the green. This is my favourite polish from Joe, and it’s cool to see a Canadian flakie polish. About time!

These look great! I especially like Persian Blue, the dustiness makes it more unusual.
Wow, I’d love all of these except Gunmetal and Twilight. IDK why but they’re just not doing it for me, the others are all beautiful.
I would buy Twilight just to stare at the bottle!!
I am LOVING Gunmetal. They’re not available anywhere in Cali?
Hey I’m From toronto…. Joe Fresh is an exclusive store brand up here… so doubt its available in the states
FLAKEYS FTW! And I love the greens!

Twilight looks like leopard print to me. Interesting new (to me) brand!
Loving Fog, Twilight (love the flake), Persian Blue (yum), Gunmetal. Thinking I have enough greens for some time to come now – though I do like this Moss. LOVING the idea that these are smaller bottles. I have so many shades I want but never use a full bottle. Yet the minis like at Sally are not enough usually unless it’s just a one time shot. Would love to know where to get these in the US – or do they have to be ordered directly from manuf. in Canada? Like the ‘uni-sex’ name on the brand. I think a lot of guys would like this polish from the samples seen here. Tell us more about the where to get part and thanks to your connection for sending these to you for all us to see!
Cool! So exciting to see a review of these. I have all of these and more – pretty much just because they are so cheap.
I agree about the brush but I actually got used to it in the end.
Thanks for the review!

I love Joe’s Twilight. Their matte top coat is really good as well! Twilight layers SO WELL over Sally Hansen’s Jumpin’ Jade! I did a blog post on it a little while ago!

Twilight makes me think about a black polish that you would have apply sally hansen hidden treasure over
I like Twilight. It reminds me of Nfu Oh #60. Would love to grab it one day!
One of my favourite nail polish brands! I was hesitant to pick up Twilight though, you have now changed my mind! Layering it over black like Mary suggested is probably a good idea!!
LOVE gunmetal – it reminds me of Rococo Metal Jacket, which I lurve
twilight looks amazing in the bottle, but it looks kinda chunky on the nail :/ i think i prefer the look from layering nubar 2010 over black!

Hey Kelly – would you say that Twilight is like – Buried Treasure mixed with black? LOVE IT!
Twilight is just gorgeous. If I can get my hands on one I definitely would. Also, I have OPI Jade Is The New Black on my nails right now and when I held it up to the monitor it matches Jade exactly! Maybe you can do a comparison next for these two?
Oh wow! Twilight is amazing!

I NEED these just cause they remind me of my family. My father’s name is Joe, my brother’s name is Joey, and My sister’s name is Jodi. Don’t know how I ended up being Edna but whatevs I’m different. I’m loving Twilight and Gunmetal. and I agree with LIlac who said Persian Blue might be a dupe for MACs Blue India.
Where can I order these polishes?
I’m hoping for an answer to several of our question…….the biggie Where can we buy these??? Or can we?
Joe Fresh is only sold in a specific chain of grocery stores in Canada and is not available for order online.
Oh Jade & Moss are extremely gorgeous. Persian Blue is lovely also. Just started seeing these lately on blogs.
