I quickly swatched the rest of Electrocandy (that I have) while the sun was out. I didn't want to swatch it in the shade because it's really so pretty.
First we have the pink one called....Electrocandy. Hm. Cool name.
It's great how these have hot and cold aspects in each one. This separates well from the purple with the blue flash. This pink with a blue flash would've been too similar. Alas, I love the pink, but the pink doesn't love me. It clashes with my skin tone in a strange way and makes it look grayish in real life. It's also quite sheer - above is four coats and could've used another one.
On to the green - What a Shock! (That's the name)
Love this one. Good coverage, nice application. This is second to Ultra Violet in my book.
The blue is called Pure Energy.
This has a lighter blue shimmer. Absolutely beautiful and opaque in three coats.
I didn't get the yellow one because my Icing Cosmic looked just like it and Siobhan of The Nailphile said it took five coats to be opaque.
Are there more than six? I didn't notice.
My recommendation of this whole line is a great big YES! I love them all and they are all unique amongst nail polish as a whole. And, at a beauty store price of $2.99, WELL worth the money.
Here they all are again so you remember.
In order of my preference,
Ultra Violet (purple) - if you only want one, this is far and away the one to have. The color, the application, the uniqueness, it's got it all.
Pure Energy (blue) - because it's sooooo pretty.
Tangerine Scream (orange) - because it is REALLY unique.
What a Shock! (green) - so cheery and pretty, especially if you love the greens.
Electrocandy - if you like pinks, definitely worth your money. I'll probably try a pedi.
And Michael Jackson, R.I.P. No matter what, I think he deserves good remembrances. The man seemed to suffer from a lot of pain and anguish. He was an incredible talent.
Love those polishes. I have to buy them. I like how you've photographed them between your fingers. Nice job. I totally agree with you about Michael Jackson. I still loved his music even though he was getting stranger. He was amazing with his singing and dancing.
ReplyDeleteI've seen a lot of people post pics of this whole collection together. I love it! Color Club doesn't go overboard with stupid advertising either. Sometimes I really hate the crap they write to try to make us buy stuff.
