Here we are with China Glaze Metro part II.

China Glaze Metro is the new 12 piece nail collection for fall 2011. It’s inspired by city loving celebrities and spans quite a range of colors and finishes.

Metro is divided into two mini collections called Uptown and Downtown (Uptown includes CG In The City, Urban-Night, Traffic Jam, City Siren and Street Chic and Brownstone and Downtown includes Skyscraper, Concrete Catwalk, Westside Warrior, Trendsetter, Loft-y Ambitions and Midtown Magic). I decided to post my swatches in a different order though.

•  Skyscraper: A sparkling, glitter blue reminiscent of the sky over the city.

• CG in the City: Glittering dusty purple, bronze and silver multi-tonal glitter, perfect for a pop of edge from West side to East side.

• Urban-Night: Exactly what you need for a night on the town – rich purple crème.

• Loft-y Ambitions: Burgundy shimmer and cocktail hour – nothing better.

• Brownstone: Burnt terracotta crème mirrors the quaint townhouses of the city.

• Midtown Magic: Burgundy base with flecks of gold shimmer captures the latest fashion trend.

Both of these are really deep shimmery purples, but are they dupes or just similar?
