BB Couture Sinfully Polished Collection For Men for Fall 2011 Swatches, Photos & Review
Look what beauties just arrived at my doorstep this afternoon!
Yes we now have two more amazing collections to drool over from BB Couture this fall. The collection is called Sinfully Polished and as usual there is a “For Men” side and a regular side. Normally there are six colors in each collection but this time we get seven!
These are seriously to die for colors. I am really blown away by both how amazing and unique the colors are and the formula. Buttery. Smooth. Creamy. Opaque. Perfection are the words that all come to mind when describing the formula. Nearly all were just two coats.
Lazy Bum
Lazy Bum (love the name) is a kind of hard to describe color. It’s a raisin brown with a taupe-y mauve look. It’s also got silver, green, red and black glitter inside giving it a fabulous shimmer. Utterly gorgeous and not like anything else I have. Super flattering color for my skin tone also. Love this one! I used three coats with this one for maximum coverage.

Jealousy
Jealousy is a medium grey/purple base with gold, silver, green and black glitter and a pink/purple overall shimmer. AMAZING! Hard to describe but it’s a really unique color and my favorite one! Two coats.
Jealousy Macro
Indulgent
Indulgent is a medium shimmery muted purple with heavy blue and pink shimmer. What makes this one different from other colors similar is the base purple has a sort greyed out tone to it. I totally love it, came out so pretty on my nails! Two coats.
Enraged
Enraged is a medium blue metallic with silver, green and pink shimmer. In the bottle it almost looks duochrome-ish but it’s not apparent on the nail much. Two coats.
Selfish
Selfish is a deep chocolate brown with heavy gold shimmer and larger red glitter. WOW. I love the addition of red in this, it’s what makes it totally unique and interesting. You know me and glowing browns, I love ‘em, and this is my second favorite one. Two coats.
Selfish Macro
Egotistical
Egotistical is a deep royal purple with blue and pink shimmer. This has a very blackened look to the edges but doesn’t look black by any means in low lighting. This is the only one I feel I have others very similar to, if not dupes. Still gorgeous and great formula! Two coats.
Desire
Desire is a bright burnt looking red with heavy gold shimmer and red glitter. Trust me when I say this looks more impressive in person than my photos. You can really see the gold in it and it’s really pretty! Two coats.
Desire Macro
Overall:
Amazing collection! I really, truly love these colors and I love that most of them are so unique and fun. I think the addition of not so common glitter colors like black and red in “regular” or “weird” colors is what makes BB Couture stand out from other brands. They take risks that larger more established companies won’t take, and it nearly always pays off in my book.
Availability: Coming soon to BB Couture’s site and Overallbeauty
Pricing: $9.95 each
SO party people, what do you think about these BB colors? Drooling over any in particular?
Stay tuned for the second half of Sinfully Polished soon!

I think I’m in love! Lazy Bum, Jealousy & Selfish in particular. This might be the kick up the butt I needed to just get over the shipping costs already!!!!

I love the look of Jealousy! I wonder how it compares to Claw Polish Phantom? I have Phantom on my nails now and am trying to compare to Jealousy and they look really close. Thank you for your beautiful swatches!
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Kelly, could you maybe do a comparison of these two? Please
Sarah´s last post…I’ve decided.
I just looked at her both of her swatches. Jealousy has the purple ‘glow’ to it. They’re both gorgeous, but don’t look like dupes.
Oh my gosh these are gorgeous! NEEEEEEEEEED.

I’m so in love with Selfish!!!!
Oh wow. I LOVE them all. I don’t own any BB Couture polishes (mainly because my wish list is too long and I can’t narrow it down enough to fit my budget, haha) but I definitely need some of these!

Oh. My. GOD. This collection is already a must have for me and it hasn’t even come out yet! All of the colors are amazing but I’m definitely going to need Selfish, Enraged, Lazy Bum and Jealousy!
Seriously, I’m surprised my eyes didn’t drop out of my head this are so gorgeous and unique!!

I love every single one! BB Couture is one of my favourite brands because they consistently offer colours that are unique and interesting. Thanks for swatching these–I will be purchasing all of them <3

They’re all quite pretty. Selfish, Jealousy and Lazy Bum are my faves here.
Hehe, my favourites are Lazy Bum, Jealousy, and Selfish!
Only in this context! I love how BB Couture isn’t afraid to try something different.
Swatch And Learn´s last post…Nail Art Tutorial: Candy Corn Nails
Oh, GORGEOUS! I want four of them!! Really lovely collection!
I want them all, why do they have to be so expensive??? I can’t afford nearly $70 for the whole collection. Does anyone know if BB Couture ever has a big half off sale for the holidays or anything like that?
The only thing I don’t like about BB Couture’s unique shades is those ones with black glitter, like a few in the famous lovers collection. It looks like pepper accidentally got sprinkled on the nails while they were still wet.
Desire, Selfish and Egotistical are must-haves for me! Good thing pay day was yesterday ;3
Selfish reminds me of SpaRitual Howl, and Jealousy reminds me of SpaRitual Sacred Ground.
Okay. Lazy Bum, Jealousy, Desire and Selfish are MUST HAVES! Kelly your swatches are divine!
Niki´s last post…Orly Fowl Play
Alright its time for me to break the piggy bank cause I need ALL of these! Usually there’s only one or two in a collection that I love but all seven of these polishes are calling my name
I’m LOVING these macro shots! Really gives a clear idea on what the polish looks like. Thanks!! ^_^
Love, love, love Jealousy and Selfish…amazing and so original!
I’ve never tried any BB Couture but I must have Selfish and Lazy Bum!!!!
Love these! Will you be swatching the women’s collection soon? I have a pending basket at Overall Beauty but would love to add any women’s polishes from this collection before I complete the order.
Hi Maureen,
They will be posting in about an hour and a half!
Jealousy is amazing looking! Just wow! Looks almost like RBL Anne but not, lol. Lovely swatches.
Krista Hebridean Sprite´s last post…Autumn Favourites
Wow! All of these polishes look amazing! I want them all!

These are gorgeous. I never did know why they had a for men side though – darker, vampier shades??
MarciaF´s last post…We’ve been tagged – Seven Links!
I love this whole collection!! Wish I had more spare cash to buy them all
Selfish has to be mine someday!
LimitedAddictionNails´s last post…Love Nails
Holy cow! These are gorgeous! I especially like Lazy Bum, Jealousy and Selfish. Can’t wait to see the other half of the collection.
I am loving them all too! Desire looks a little like Orly Emberstone in the new Mineral collection but a bit more muted. Love it!
Wow, these are some insanely gorgeous colors! I’m loving Lazy Bum, Jealousy and Desire, but I’m seriously needing Selfish! Overall such a pretty collection, I can’t wait to see the women’s half
Meeka´s last post…Franken Time! Amalthea (As seen in Laura’s contest)
Honestly – wouldn’t be the more interesting question – how suitable are they for men?! I mean they are “made for men”, so shouldn’t this be the no.1 concern?! Would you like to have your husband/boyfriend/friend wearing them? If not, why?! Just a thought…
Hi Sophie,
I have reviewed at least 10 collections from BB “For Men” so at this point I think people have already thought about that, haha!
I really like all of these. I usually seem to like the “For Men” collection better of the two, although, like others I’m not sure I quite get what they’re going for with the for men thing.
Sarah´s last post…Nail Night: Moss Roses Manicure
I love the macro shots! They are totally mesmerizing. I can’t wear nail polish due to the time commitment, my fragile, peely nails, and the nature of my work (I work with my hands and have stub nails and old man-hands), so I have to live vicariously through shots like these!
oh. my. GOD! I need the entire collection. Thanks for the nail porn – and ‘curses!’ says my wallet.
Jealousy, Selfish and Desire are my favorite of the bunch
I need them ALL! Seriously, so, so SO gorgeous! The best collection I’ve seen in some time. I’m smitten, can you tell?

lazy bum, jealousy, enraged, and selfish will be mine!
