The French Kiss - An ivory white crème with a gold shift and gold micro flakes
I was pleasantly surprised at how well behaved this white polish was! Super creamy not streaky at all and quite opaque. I wore this for nearly a week with no chips or tipwear.

Cupid's Float - A cotton candy pink crème that dries to a glossy smooth finish
The thicker of this group, but not unmanageable. A coat of QDTC helped smooth it right up.

Love Potion Punch - A rose pink crème that dries to a glossy smooth finish
Heh, puch is a good name for it, so bright it packs a punch! A fun color and quite squishy almost a jelly but too opaque to be called one.

Red Hot Valentine - A candy apple red crème that dries to a glossy smooth finish
I couldn't decide if this was a warm or cool toned red it looked like both depending on lighting!

Lady In Red Cocktail - A port wine crème that dries to a glossy smooth finish
A nice purple-ish berry red. I love this type of shade when wearing red-ish. :)

Shrinking Violet Cocktail - A deep eggplant purple linear holo.
What a grape color and my fave of the bunch! (see what I did there?) Still wearing it today and planning to wear it for a few more!

I wore two coats of each polish and found the formulas on all of them were easy to apply and streak free - yes even the creamy white shade, The French Kiss! Cupid's Float (pale pink) was the thicker of the bunch but it wasn't unmanageable. The other pinks and reds are squishy and apply like a dream and that purple! But you guys know me, I always love the purple!
The creams stamp well, except for the Cupid's Float (pinky nail) which is very sheer when stamped and difficult to see over creamy white. (Plate is Born Pretty BPL-024)

Thank you for visiting and reading, if you enjoyed my post please follow my facebook page to see what I post next!
Those are some pretty colors for Valentine's Day. I like the nail art designs you created with them a lot too.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I had fun doing the nail art.
DeleteBeautiful colors! I haven't tried this brand yet.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy with it, although I think I would get full size if making a purchase. The minis brush stem is pretty short and I had a little difficulty painting. Probably because I don't ever use / buy minis so this was new to me.
DeleteI really, really like the red creme. I am a sucker for a good red creme, this looks amazing. Top Shelf has been putting out some excellent colors lately!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely an awesome red cream! I will be watching Top Shelf launches more closely now!
DeleteGorgeous colors, your swatches are perfection!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteAwesome swatches loved pinks n purple. Your manis are perfect
ReplyDeleteThank you!
