Hello!
Today we're gonna take a look at Stella Chroma's American Muscle Collection, a vibrant collection inspired by Pam's love of classic cars! I'm also going to show you two additions to her permanent collection, so let's jump right in...First up, the American Muscle Collection:

Formula & Application: Excellent! Sometimes neons can be patchy, but this applied like a dream.
Maker's description: This gorgeous neon green-yellow was inspired by the late 60's Dodge Charger. Super fast and super noticeable. This color will get attention. It screams summer with just a touch of "Look at me!"
I couldn't agree more with the description on this--I love a good lime green neon for summer, and this is super cute. Stella Chroma All Charged Up is bright and attention grabbing--it's summer fun in a bottle. $10 per 15 mL bottle.

Coverage: 2 coats
Formula & Application: Perfect!
Maker description: The 70's Barracudas in Plum Crazy still get me! Deep purple with gorgeous shimmer that shines through! This one will take 3 coats for opacity for most folks, and that was intentional because I want the himmer to shine! $12 per 15 mL bottle.
Stella Chroma Crazy For Speed is a beautiful royal purple shimmer. I only needed 2 coats for coverage, and loved all the shimmer! I love that the collection has a bright jewel-tone, and such a versatile one at that.

Formula & Application: Excellent! No problems.
Maker's Description: The classic Ford Mustang gets a nod with this creamy, eye-grabbing blue. Goes on like butter and shines bright at 2 coats! This one will be great for nail art and imagine the beauty of it as a pedi while sitting poolside... $10 per 15 mL bottle.
Stella Chroma Grab The Wheel is another perfect-for-summer polish. She's right that this is perfect for nail art--a great base for tons of looks, it'll also mix and match well (pair it with a gorgeous red for some patriotic nail art--and there might be some coming up in the post here...). Oceans, clear skies, swimming pools--this calls up so much of what's great about summer.

Formula & Application: Excellent! None of the issues you can sometimes get with jellies. Perfectly smooth. :)
Maker's Description: You can't talk classic American muscle cars and not have a late 60's Chevy Camaro represented. Not quite neon, but definitely not quiet. This orange cream applies beautifully and will get those nails noticed at 2-3 coats. $10 per 15 mL bottle.
This orange!!!! I plan on wearing this all summer long. It's the center of the sun, it's orange popsicles, it's chilled mandarin orange segments on a hot day. This is more a tangerine jelly than an orange cream, in my opinion--it straddles the line between jelly and creme in my opinion.
Okay, so we've gone through the sexy muscle cars...but Pam also has two new additions to her permanent collection:

Formula & Application: Perfection
Maker description: A true red creme with blue undertones that is opaque yet squishy at 2-3 coats. Dries with incredible shine as well. $10 for 15 mL.
The name on this one says it all--this is classic glamour in a bottle. Sexy, hot, and universal. Everybody needs this polish in their collection--and probably more than one bottle.

Coverage: 2 coats
Formula & Application: Perfect, no issues!
Maker's Description: This one looks black in the bottle, but you see on the nails that it is a perfect navy creme. Super easy application with it's best look at three thin coats. $10 for 15 mL bottle.
I got the look I liked with two coats on this one. I disagree with the description a little on this; I'd call it more of an inky midnight blue that definitely leans black in many lights. But the blue is there, for sure! So if you're looking for a dark blue for your patriotic nail art this summer, pair this with Classic Red, and you'll be good to go!
Both the American Muscle Collection and the two additions to her permanent Basics Collection go on sale tomorrow, June 21st at noon EST. The American Muscle collection will be available as a set at the discounted price of $37 from 6/21 to 7/5, then available only at regular price. Same with the two basics: they will be available as a set for $18 from 6/21 to 7/5 only, then available only at regular price. So go go go grab that discount!
