Color Club Foiled Collection Swatches and Review

I know I'm a little late to jump on the bandwagon of this collection but I finally got around to picking it up at Ross so here are my pictures and reviews:

Sunlight (overcast)

Shade
 Perfect Mol-ten. 2 coats. Silvery green. I love this! It reminds me of a foil sea foam green kind of color. Its so pretty!!

Sunlight
 Lumin-icecent. 2 coats. Pale icy blue. My camera picked this up as silver but its a very, very pale blue. I wish this color was more like a non-crackle version of China Glaze's Oxidized Aqua because it just looks silver in most lights and I already have a few silver foils.

Sunlight

Shade
Foil Me Once. 2 coats. Light pink foil. Pretty but a shade I probably won't wear alone too much... don't usually wear pinks on my fingers. 

Sunlight

Shade
 Antiquated. 2 coats. Champagney/light bronze and under certain light you can see a strong flash of the silver base

Sunlight

Shade
Hot Like Lava. 2 Coats. HOT pink/magenta. As much as pinks don't usually catch my attention, I love this one so much!!


Sunlight

Cold Metal. 2 coats. True blue foil. This color is really saturated and the silver foil base almost looks like silver glitter in this color. Very pretty!

Overall, this collection is pretty fantastic. The formula was fantastic on every single one of them. 2 easy coats and on some of them, I could have gotten away with only one coat. The only color I'm a little disappointed in is Lumin-icecent, I wish it had a little more color to it so it didn't look so silver. Overall I'm very, very happy with all of these!

Thanks for reading, until next time!

Currently on my nails: Foiled Crackle

The weekend is almost over... back to work and class tomorrow. I'm taking a break from reading for my Women's History class and of course I had to do my nails. Sorry for the odd lighting but its almost 10 pm here also, sorry for the messy cuticles... I'm too lazy to fix it and a shower in the morning will clean those right up... anywho here's what I came up with:


Color Club Cold Metal (2 coats) with China Glaze Oxidized Aqua on top. Cold Metal is from the foiled collection. I'll have a post up about that collection soon! So what do you think? Blue enough? I'm actually surprised that I love how this came out even though OA didn't crackle as much as I hoped it would. I'm really impatient so I know I didn't wait long enough.

That's it for now... back to reading about Russian immigrants in the slums. Until next time!


Mini Haul

As the weekend is winding down, I just wanted to share my mini haul for the weekend and also to show what I will be having swatches of in the next week or so... I already swatched these today, I just have to edit them and write the post for them but until then here's what I got:

Foiled and Beyond the Mistletoe collections

I got both these sets at Ross for 7.99 each. Score! :)I love when I can find good Color Club sets at Ross. I got the Electro Candy collection last November at Ross too. The only thing that annoys me about the Ross sets is the bottles don't have the name of the color on them so I usually just label it myself... oh well... can't beat a great deal!
