Hello!
Yes, it's that time again--time to clean out the vault of all the swatches that haven't yet made it to prime time, for one reason or another. So sit back, grab your coffee, and enjoy a stroll through a bevy of bold beauties. :)

Great swatch spam! These are all very wonderful colors too.
ReplyDeleteThank you thank you! :)
DeleteI love posts like this ! Great spam
ReplyDeleteHehe! Thanks so much. :) I also love just scrolling through swatches...sigh...:)
DeleteI need Cole in my life! It's so stunning!
ReplyDeleteThat's one of my favorites. I'm a sucker for a good peach...
DeleteLove me some swatch spam! :) These are all so wonderful, but of course China Glaze's VII is the bestest -- although, other swatches show it more red-ish? (me no likey red-ish leaning purples).
ReplyDeleteThis capture how it looked to me on my fingers (at least on my screen it does, lol). I found it to be really, really vampy, dark purple, almost black. Not what I would see as red at all, really. But I also don't know that I'd recommend it, it was a little patchy.
DeleteUm, just a thought: you sure this one isn't "VIII"? Because VII is a more maroon-ish red (or whatever; I'm awful at naming colours), while swatches of VIII show it as a dark plum (in that case, no worries, my stash is definitely not lacking it!).
Delete..or maybe my display's calibrated all wrong, lol, and I just see it all differently.
I just double checked, and you are right, it is VIII! Darn my eyes! Thanks for catching that--I'll go change it. >.<
DeleteOh my gosh, I love them all! The first green I think might be my favorite though!
ReplyDeleteStarboard is one of my classic favs, too. :)
DeleteBrownstone is so striking on you! I love Julep's Joanna! I've been looking for a grey-purple like that for so long after one of my similar nail polishes ran out!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love reds, and the darker, vampy reds are my favs. :)
Deletei love the zoya demi best! i was gonna ask.. do you use a brush and polish and remover to clean up afterwards or do you just happen to apply clean every time. i'm trying to figure out what kind of brush to buy.
ReplyDeleteI totally cheat with a clean-up brush, lol. I do try to make it as clean as possible to start, but I don't think I've ever done a mani that didn't need some clean up. I just bought a little one at Michael's, the size of an eyeliner brush. I have a slightly bigger one that I use for cleaning up nail art that gets onto the sides of my fingers...you can see pics here: http://lacquerorleaveher.blogspot.com/2013/11/my-basic-stamping-tools.html
DeleteColor Club Revolution is my fav, it reminds me of my fav Zoya shade! It's funky and glam and special, all at the same time. :)

I'm gonna guess that your fav Zoya is Storm? I love that, it's such a beauty. :)
DeleteThese colors remind me of FALL! :) Gorgeous! I've never tried the Zoya nail polish, but I only hear good things about it. Maybe it's time I tried it out!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I didn't even do that on purpose, but it does have a fall feel, doesn't it! Zoya is really great. They also have really great sales, follow them on twitter or get on their mailing list. You can regularly get them for $4 a bottle, often with free shipping. :)
DeleteLove spam posts!
ReplyDeleteMe too...nothing like scrolling through tons of beautiful polishes...sigh...
DeleteI love the China Glaze VII. It is such a rich, deep color!
ReplyDeleteI have a typo, it's VIII! So if you look for it, make sure you grab the right one. Sorry!!
DeleteLove the grey sparkles. So suddle and so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI adore a good holo...:)
DeleteLove these! The photos are so clear! I love that Revolution color!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! :) Revvvolution is such a great polish, holo for the win!
DeleteOhhhh the Zoya Stassi is AWESOME!! So funky and bright. I need to get more polishes with sparkles in them! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love that whole collection. They did great things with the glitter, nice combinations of colors that are subtle but eye-catching. :)
DeleteYour nails are so beautiful that I liked polishes you swatched that I normally would not! Thanks for the great post and the wonderful photos.
ReplyDeleteThank you, that's quite a compliment!! You made my day. :)
DeleteHow do you get your nails painted so perfectly? They're gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI totally cheat, I use a small brush dipped in remover to clean up my mistakes. :)
DeleteI love the sparkly black one! I seriously need to do my nails now!
ReplyDeleteGo, run, paint!! <3
DeleteChina Glaze Brownstone is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love that one, too. :)
DeleteLove these colours, especially the red. Perfect autumn colour.
ReplyDeleteIt really is gorgeous for fall. I'm going to have to use it for some fall manis soon...:)
DeleteI love the swatches but my favorite is most definitely the zoya demi.
ReplyDeleteThat's one of my favorite purples!
DeleteLove the gray sparkles!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that one gorgeous??
DeleteOoh, that China Glaze VII is calling my name. I'm picturing it matte.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I have a typo on that--it's VIII. And it would look amazing mattified!!
DeleteColor Club Revvolution baby! Great depth there!
ReplyDeleteThey did such a great job on that one, and it's $3 vs. the $15+ black holos out there...o.O
DeleteThose first two are PERFECT for fall - I've been thinking I need a new oxblood/brown for the season :)
ReplyDeleteIt's the perfect oxblood, imo. I adore it!
DeleteI need to do my nails ASAP and that Cole is calling my name. I am also a sucker for China Glaze.

China Glaze was the brand that seduced me into my polish addiction, lol. I was a normal girl, about 20 different bottles of polish, and then the China Glaze Hunger Games collection came out. Let's not talk about how many bottles I have now...>.>
DeleteLove the reds and the peach! Super cute.
ReplyDeleteYes yes yes!! :)
DeleteGoodness! Your nails are perfect! I love the brownstone color- it's great for fall!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you, that's so sweet of you!!!
DeleteSo many different colors! I always think I will paint my nails and collect a few colors and then I never do. Maybe oneday
ReplyDeleteHey, all any girl *needs* is one classic signature color. Now *wants*, that's a whole 'nother story, lol!
DeleteLove these colours! So many great ones for fall :D
ReplyDeleteDefinitely plenty here to get you through the season...:)
DeleteGreat swatches! I'm loving the Color Club Revvvolution.
ReplyDeleteThank you! That's one of my favs. :)
DeleteI cannot get over your nails. They are so perfectly shaped!
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet of you to say! You know how it is, you always see your own flaws, and I always wish mine didn't curl so much. But they're strong and I know I'm pretty lucky!
DeleteThese are some great colors for fall!! I love the Color Club swatch...these black/glittery polishes seem to be popular lately!
ReplyDeleteIt's true, I've noticed that, too. I wonder why? Maybe it's sparkly retro grunge!
DeleteSo many pretties! I'm loving CG Starboard
ReplyDeleteGreat pick. I love that one for everything, nail art, base polish, everything. :)
DeleteGorgeous, mouthwatering swatches. I am in awe of every manicure you produce <3
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! You are so awesome to say that. You rock too. :)
DeleteI love the black /grey glitter one! omgosh, great job on the manicure!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I love Revvvolution so much...:)
DeleteSo many pretty colors! I definitely need to do a little shopping now :)
ReplyDeleteGotta get those fall colors!
DeleteLots of great colors. Starboard is a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike...It's so pretty and versatile. :)
