Zoya Feel Collection for Winter 2011 Swatches & Review

Zoya Feel Zoya Feel Collection for Winter 2011 Swatches & Review

Zoya Feel is a winter collection that includes six soft neutral creme polishes.

Soft and neutral, but not boring!

The great thing about these is they really are all opaque in just two coats. Nothing sheer about them!

Models Own Beetlejuice Collection Swatches, Photos & Review

Models Own Beetlejuice1 Models Own Beetlejuice Collection Swatches, Photos & Review

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice is here!

As you know, there has been much hype over the Models Own Beetlejuice collection ever since they announced it a couple months ago. I think nearly every nail blogger I am connected to on Twitter got it along with lots of you guys. But does the hype live up to my expectations? Yes and no.

Let’s talk formula. Some of these felt a tiny bit on the thick side, but I didn’t have any problems working with them aside from a couple being a bit streaky. I did use three coats for all colors just because I want maximum payoff and coverage.

I do think the names could have been more interesting though. It seems like all the thought went into the collection name and color concept and then they had no energy left. Better, less generic names would have made the collection a little more special for me.

China Glaze Eye Candy for holiday 2011 is a new collection of six glitters.

Yep, glitters. Again. I feel like all I have swatched the last month are uber glittery nail polishes, and to be frank I have seen enough!

That’s not to say there aren’t some great ones here. I am just more of a shimmer kind of person. icon wink China Glaze Eye Candy for Holiday 2011 Swatches, Photos & Review

Coverage with these was really quite good. I used two coats for nearly all of them and was satisfied.

Wet n Wild Limited Edition Ice Baby Collection for Holiday 2011 Swatches, Photos & Review

Wet n Wild Ice Baby Wet n Wild Limited Edition Ice Baby Collection for Holiday 2011 Swatches, Photos & Review

Ice Baby is the newest nail collection from Wet n Wild for holiday 2011. It’s limited edition and exclusive to Walgreens.

I know plenty of you have been on the lookout for this collection to no avail yet. But hang in there, hopefully you’ll find it soon!

This collection is comprised of eight new colors, all super glittery and sparkly (and not easy to remove, especially when you swatched them all at once). icon wink Wet n Wild Limited Edition Ice Baby Collection for Holiday 2011 Swatches, Photos & Review

They don’t come in a full sized bottle, but rather a smaller 0.34 oz bottle. But at $2.99, they’re a steal!

I used three coats for all of these because I wanted as much coverage and glittery fabulousness as I could muster. They are definitely thicker when you apply that many coats, but not overly hard to work with.

Revlon Edgy Elegance Collection Swatches & Review

Revlon Edgy Elegance Collection Revlon Edgy Elegance Collection Swatches & Review

Revlon Edgy Elegance is a new collection of eight shimmery pastel metallics.

The colors in this collection are:

  • Catty – Taupe
  • Girly – Lavender
  • Princess – Blue
  • Punk – Pale green
  • Fierce – Bright pink
  • Innocent – Pale pink
  • Downtown – Grey/silver
  • Aloof – White
The formula with these is pretty spectacular. They are thick and creamy and cover almost completely in one coat! I did use two on every swatch though for good measure. They dry super fast as well.
I picked up the coolest looking ones to me recently at Rite Aid for $4.79 each! Good deal. icon smile Revlon Edgy Elegance Collection Swatches & Review
