Grace-full Nail Polish Nook Isles Collection - Swatches & Review

 PRESS SAMPLE

Guess who has a new collection?  Grace-full Nail Polish is who!  Although I am sure you already know that based on the title and it's most likely why you are reading this in the first place.  Anyway, Grace-full have a new eight polish collection called Nook Isles and I have all my swatches and review to share with you today.  Let's take a look shall we?

  

Amira is a soft green - soft blue aurora.  This is such a nice colour with a nice shimmer.  The formula is easy to use and applies evenly, however I did find it to be sheer on the first coat.  For my swatch I used three coats.

Blathering On is a dark brown jelly with ultra chrome chameleon flakies in gold-green.  This isn't my type of colour but the formula is nice and easy to use.  For my swatch I used three coats.

Izzy is a deep dusty pink-coral crelly with a smattering of bronze metallic flakes.  This isn't my type of colour either.  The formula is great and easy to use.  I used two coats for my swatch.

Meringue Patty is a red-pastel pink thermal with crystal colour changing flakes.    I quite like this polish when it is in it's warm state (the pink).  The formula is on the thicker side but it is easy to work with.  It also transitions well between the states (possibly a little too well because I really struggled to capture the cold state).  For my swatch I used two coats.

Pave is a purple to green to dark blue aurora polish with crystal colour shifting flakes.  This is such a beautiful polish with a great shift.  The formula is great and easy to use.  For my swatch I used two coats.

Red Lynx has purple metallic flakes with a pinch of silver metallic flakes.  This is hands down my favourite from this collection.  I love it!  The colour is gorgeous and the formula is amazing.  You could get away with one coat on shorter nails.  For my swatch I used two coats.

Ring Ma-bel is a blue/purple/pink/orange multichrome with crystal colour changing flakes.  Really pretty polish but I find that this one isn't that shifty on the nails.  It definitely looks more shifty in the bottle.  The formula is awesome and close to being a one coater.  My swatch shows two coats.

Turn It Up is a white crelly base with teeny micro green glitter.  I think this polish will make a great base for nail art.  The formula is great and easy to use.  I used three coats for my swatch but you can stop at two coats.

That is all the polishes from the Nook Isles Collection.  It's a good collection, with a good mix of colours and finishes.  My personal favourite is Red Lynx.

The Nook Isles Collection will be available from May 28th at 8pm AEST from Grace-full Nail Polish Australian site and the international site.
