BB Couture Pastel Bunnies for spring 2013 is a new collection that features six new pastel creme lacquers.

Actually they are pastel cremes, but some of them have very subtle hidden shimmer. These aren’t the chalky kind of pastel, they’re more milky and sheer. They are buildable though, and most are three coats for complete coverage. A couple are a bit patchy so working slowly and letting each coat dry is key to avoid some of the dreaded patchiness.

BB Couture Shades of Grey is a new six-piece collection named after a certain uber popular book which shall not be named.

I’ll admit, I started and initially liked this book that shall not be named. But about halfway through I nearly lost my mind with the horrible writing. I mean there is silly trashy writing and then there is this book that shall not be named. A book I could have written when I was a pre-teen. That’s how bad it is.

ANYWAY onto the nail collection! Obviously as the name implies, these nail lacquers are all shades of grey. All are glittery or shimmery and most were three coats for me.

Love blue nail polish? Then you may love the new BB Couture Rhythm & Blues collection, or rather the “Blues” part. Blues features six new blue nail polish shades in various finishes.

There is surely a blue in here with your name on it since we have light, medium, dark and even a blurple thrown in for good measure.

Most of these were two-coaters, a couple were three though. The formula overall was a bit better than the Rhythm collection, I think mainly because there aren’t any pastel cremes, which can be tricky.

Look what just landed on my desk! The new BB Couture Rhythm & Blues collection! This is a typical two-parter for BB Couture featuring the “regular” side (Rhythm) and the “For Men” side (Blues).

The Rhythm side features six new shades all in various finishes. Unlike the Blues side, which are all blue, we have more colors here and some unusual ones to boot! That’s what I love about BB Couture. They are not afraid of weird or what some people call ugly shades. The ugly ones usually turn out to be my favorites.

The formula was not totally consistent with these, some were two coats some three. A couple were a little streaky.
