When I first saw a press release for this collection I was like O.O. I had a fear though since these were coming from the UK they'd be too pricey for my wallet. I was pleasantly surprised that cost of these was not that bad. I got the whole set with top coat plus shipping for $50. It's not cheap, but it's not completely unreasonable either. My second fear with this collection was since it was not really swatched on blogs prior to its release I was going to be making a gamble. I was fearful these would not be what I expected. Thankfully, I was wrong. These are pretty polishes!
The one problem with these is that my camera in no way could do these justice. I've noticed that bloggers with better cameras than me have had the same issue. These are just too pretty for cameras!
Pinky Brown
Pinky Brown is warm foil pink with golden/orange duochrome.
Aqua Violet
Aqua Violet is a aqua shimmer with purple duochrome.
Purple Blue
Purple Blue is a deep purple foil with bright blue duochrome.
Emerald Black
Emerald Black is a deep green shimmer with black edges.
Golden Green
Golden Green is a yellow-green shimmer with a golden duochrome.
These colors are great. Some of these were sheer when applied, but built up nicely. The only issue I have with these is that some of these are shimmers while others are foils. I wish they all were foils since I prefer that finish. The great thing about these is they're NOT limited edition. You don't have rush out to get these, because they'll always be around.
You can find the Beetlejuice collection on Models Own website.
Happy Wednesday!
Love these! Especially Golden Green!
ReplyDeleteI love all of these - can't go wrong with a great duochrome! My favorites are Green Black and Aqua Violet.
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love aqua violet ;0)
ReplyDeleteHoly moley!! That Emerald Black is GORGEOUS!
ReplyDeleteAll are great!
ReplyDeleteI love this collection!
Thanks for the brilliant swatches. I want Pinky Brown, Emerald Black and Purple Blue, but there's no real rush since I now know they're not LE.
ReplyDeleteSO. JEALOUS. oh my gosh. i wanted these SOOOO badly, but i couldn't justify it:/
ReplyDeleteGorgeous collection!! I also really enjoy how it is called Beetlejuice. XD
ReplyDeleteI have hesitations about these.. I love duo chromes but only the Emerald Black and Golden Green strike me as being worth it...
ReplyDeleteOOO Pinky Brown is pretty! Purple Blue looks similar to Orly's Galaxy Girl.
ReplyDeleteIs the teal at all frosty? I couldn't really tell in the photos. Also, what do you do to keep your cuticles in such great shape? They are lovely!
ReplyDeleteAll those colors are very pretty!

Such gorgeous colours! I have a friend ordering me some!! I am so exited to see them.
ReplyDeleteAlso, loooving the format of your blog. Well done.
Pretty! I especially like Golden Green, Emerald Black, Purple Blue and Pinky Brown. Great pics!
ReplyDeleteOkay, as soon as I have 50 extra dollars, I NEED THESE
ReplyDeleteThis is such a unique collection! My fav is aqua violet!
ReplyDeleteI really like Pinky Brown and Aqua Violet. I've added these to my cart on the MO site, but I haven't decided if I want to splurge just yet.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I like these, it's not something I feel like you have to immediately jump on. I guess it's because it's not LE. I think they can sit in your cart for awhile until you make a decision. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty one!
ReplyDeleteYes they're quite nice!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I tried with my dinky camera :P
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteOh geez...I'm not sure if I'd call it frosty...per say. These nail polish finishes sometimes confuse me. I really say it's a shimmer. Thanks, they still have their problems. I moisturize my hands a lot. Believe it or not I love this lotion at Dollar Tree called Dermasil. It seriously is the best. I also use Lush Lemony Flutter cuticle butters that's a bit pricey around $15, but so worth it. It lasts a long time too. I put that on before I go to sleep at night.
ReplyDeleteIf you have hesitations about these, I would suggest you really think about it before getting them especially since they are not LE.
ReplyDeleteI agree!
ReplyDeleteWell, they'll be around so if you decide sometime you want them you can still get them!
ReplyDeleteThank you :).
ReplyDeleteMe too!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. It doesn't have much of the duochrome factor but the richness of that green is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty one!
ReplyDeleteThose are 2 great colors!
ReplyDeleteThat one is pretty!
