Hey y'all! Today I finally have the fall collection ready to show y'all. Rebel was inspired by the 90's and has an interesting mix of shades and finishes. Not to mention the names. Half the time, some of us will purchase polishes just for the name itself. So I'm going to get right to it, and as usual I used Seche Vite as my top coat.
I have some mixed feelings on this collection. I definitely have some favorites though.
Fresh Prince-ss - 2 coats - Baby doll dress pink creme - Pastel pink cream. Easy to apply and pretty, but this makes me think spring rather than fall.
Dope Taupe - 2 coats - Almond taupe cream - This looks more grey-ish purple taupe to me. I used this as a base color for my Halloween mani and it worked well. I don't really think fall with this shade either, but I like it.
Pearl Jammin - 3 coats - Chic gray opalescent - This looks more blue based opalescent to me. It's super sheer with a rosey gold shimmer. It would be better layered over a base.
Y'all Red-y For This - 2 coats - Red shimmer - This is a pretty opaque red with pink shimmers. It could easily be a 1 coat application.
Jagged Little Teal - 2 coats - Vampy teal creme - My camera picked up more of the blue in this than the green, but this is a dusky blue toned teal cream.
Combat Blue-ts - 2 coats - Bad ass matte blue - A matte cobalt blue with shimmer. Application on this is definitely more tricky than any matte I've used before. When left matte, the shimmer is hidden. It's only when you apply a top coat that the shimmer appears. I really like this one both ways.
Holo At Ya Girl - 3 coats - green-gold holographic glitter - I did 1 coat over Combat Blue-ts and 3 coats alone on my ring finger. Sadly I didn't use the glitter sponge application for this so that may have cut the amount used down. It's a clear base, but the glitters look more gold with a green/blue. I see nothing holographic about them either. Definitely not a favorite.
Purple Fiction - 2 coats - Royal metallic plum - Definitely a metallic purple, but there's some purple/pink shimmer in there to give it something else. Love it, and of course the name too.
Heroine Chic - 2 coats - sultry chocolate creme with flecks of red shimmer - I definitely don't see chocolate creme in this, or red. To me, it looks more like a charcoal brown with pink flecks of shimmer. Maybe it's just me?
Don't Mesh With Me - 4 coats - Lavender shimmer - This is a clear base full of just purple and pink shimmers. It's almost like a duochrome shimmer & would look great layered over something else.
Blue-Ya! - 2 coats - Sapphire blue shimmer - This has that deep cobalt blue jelly-like base full of blue & teal green shimmer. The shimmer sticks out a little more in person.
Teen Spirit - 2 coats - Deep inky blue-black with metallic flecks - This looks more, to me, like a deep, almost black, purple base with purple, blue, and maybe some pink shimmers in there. It was definitely hard to photograph.
I think Combat Blue-ts and Purple Fiction are my 2 fav's. What about you?
