**WARNING PICTURE HEAVY**
I've got the entire China Glaze City Flourish Collection to show you all today! I snagged these vibrant beauties last month when Sally Beauty Supply had their BOGO sale. I grabbed them the last week the sale was going on. I was so happy they still had the whole collection left. Since there are twelve polishes and everyone knows I can't just post one picture, let's get to it!!
Metro Pollen-Tin is a pastel yellow-orange creme.
This is three coats of Metro Pollen-Tin for an even finish.
Strike A Rose is a vibrant rose pink (sorry that was the only description I could think of when I saw it) with a hint of shimmer that I didn't even notice until I took the macro shots.
This is three coats of Strike A Rose for an even finish.
Grass Is Lime Greener is a neon pastel lime green creme.
This is three coats of Grass Is Lime Greener for an even finish.

At Vase Value is a bright pastel blue that is just a couple drops of green short of being Tiffany blue.
This is three coats of At Vase Value for an even finish.
In A Lily Bit is a powder pink pastel creme.
This is three coats of In A Lily Bit for an even finish.
Peonies & Park Ave is a neon hot pink creme.

Don't Honk Your Thorn is a nude creme with a hint of shimmer.
This is three coats of Don't Honk Your Thorn for full opacity.
The colors in the City Flourish Collection are beautiful. The collection is a little pink heavy, but the colors are beautiful none-the-less. The formulas, however, are not. Some are thick and streaky and weird to work with, and others are watery and difficult to work with. Don't Honk Your Thorn and Strike A Rose were the only polishes I had zero problems with. They had a perfect formulas and wonderful applications. I'm thinking it's not a coincidence that they are the two polishes with shimmers and they are the only ones I had no issues with.
It's no secret that China Glaze polishes have hit or miss formulas. Where these formulas were a miss, the colors were a hit for me. I still can't wait to see what else China Glaze will be releasing this year!
These swatches were topped with Magpie Shine top coat ($7) and I used Sweet Nectar cuticle oil ($6) to hydrate my cuticles. Both from A Girl Obsessed.
