LynBDesigns You've Been Gilmored Collection Swatch and Review
9:32 AM**Press Samples**
Stupid question...anyone here a fan of Gilmore Girls? I know most of you have been going crazy over the newest trailer for the upcoming Netflix special that was released yesterday, but, today, I have swatches of LynBDesigns You've Been Gilmored Collection that is releasing on Friday! Yeah, I know it is a lot to handle. A lot of you are still emotionally unstable from the release of the trailer, but take three deep breathes and keep reading. You'll get through it. I'll be here to hold your hand...let's go!
Pale is the New Tan
Shown is three coats of Pale is the New Tan with top coat.
Pale is the New Tan is a beautiful shade of nude! It is a crelly so the you'll need a few coats for opacity. It is a bit streaky, but three coats and a top coat will give you an opaque and clean look. Great on its own, or as the base for some nail art. This nude has the slightest hint of yellow to it, so some of you might have issues with it looking right on your skin tone if you were to wear it on its own.
$8
Coffee, Coffee, Coffee
Shown is three coats of Coffee, Coffee, Coffee with top coat.
Coffee Coffee, Coffee is sheer, but buildable. Use three coats if you want to use it on its own, but you could easily use it as a topper if you wanted to jazz up a brown creme with one coat. This polish will leave you chanting its name, but luckily you won't be left with the jitters.
$10
You're a Taylor Tease
Shown is two coats of You're a Taylor Tease with top coat.
You're a Taylor Tease is an intriguing crelly. The mixture of colors is strange but it totally works! You'll be happy to know that two coats is all you'll need of this one! It isn't as sheer as other crellies and it doesn't streak at all. I was super impressed. Will definitely leave you feeling like you're in Taylor's cozy sweater!
$8
Vicious Trollop
Shown is three coats of Vicious Trollop with top coat.
Vicious Trollop is a shade that any vamp would wear proudly on her lips! This beauty is dark and sultry with the most perfect amount of gold shimmer. The specks of red give it so much depth. It is more of a jelly, and kinda sheer, so I recommend doing three coats with this one. Flawless formula and application!
$8
Bring a Book to Sniff
Shown is three coats of Bring a Book to Sniff with top coat.
Bring a Book to Sniff is sure to be a guilty pleasure! If you try to say that you don't smell books, whether they be new or used, you are a LIAR!! Yes, I called you out! I don't care either. Sniffing books is on everyone's guilty pleasure list. It is a wonderful smell. This polish is the perfect combination of colors and glitters. Once you get to full opacity, it looks like a pile of leaves...freshly raked. It is sheer at first, but three coats will get you full opacity. Someone needs to use this as the base for some fall nail art please!!
$8
In Omnia Paratus
Shown is three coats of In Omnia Paratus with top coat.
In Omnia Paratus is pure happiness. The color is soft, dainty, and ethereal. The shade of yellow is so perfect, anyone should be able to wear this color. I've never had lemon cotton candy but this polish has me craving it. It is a bit streaky with the first couple coats, but after the third coat and a top coat you'll have a perfectly opaque polish that has evened out.
$8
Am I Crying or Laughing?
Shown is two coats of Am I Crying or Laughing? with top coat.
Am I Crying or Laughing? is so playful! It's a great shade of green, has great shimmer, and glitter in different shapes and sizes. You get a little bit of everything on each nail with two coats. It won't leave you wanting for anything else. Some of the glitter requires a bit of working around, as they tend to clump together when brushing the polish on the nail. The glitter isn't huge or gaudy though. Nothing that will be a complete turn off.
$8
SS Lurk
Shown is three coats of SS Lurk with top coat.
SS Lurk is a haunting shade of grey that leans blue. Strangely enough, this just might be my favorite from the collection. This color is beautiful, the glitter choices were spot on and not over done, the application is normal for a crelly...a little streaky at first, but evens out and becomes opaque after a few coats. What I love about this polish is how the holo and shimmer peek through the polish in the layers. It is really something special!
$8
I Don't Like Mondays
Shown is three coats of I Don't Like Mondays with top coat.
I Don't Like Mondays is a polish you're going to have a hard time not loving. A beautiful deep shade of teal with a purple shimmer that will knock your socks off. Feeling down? This is the polish that will turn things around. Smooth application and perfect formula. Three coats for full opacity, or layer it over a cream. Your choice. Have fun with it! It's begging for it!
$10
Paris Needs No Embellishment
Shown is two coats of Paris Needs No Embellishment with top coat.
Paris Needs No Embellishment is one of those polishes that looks kind of...well...bland when you first look at it in the bottle. A simple lavender with some small flecks. But this one is meant to be seen in only a few layers. Yes, like the other crellies, it is a bit sheer and streaky but evens out in no time. I really wish I could have captured its beauty in my photographs. Even though it is opaque and you don't get VNL, it is still slightly translucent and you see the beautiful flakes shimmering through.
$8
Oy With the Poodles Already
Shown is three coats of Oy With the Poodles Already with top coat.
Oy With the Poodles Already is a brilliant shade of purple. A bright violet that will have you prancing around like a prissy poodle. Perfect formula and application. I dare you to find something wrong with this beauty! I'm loving this so much, it's next in line to go on my toes!
$10
I Have No Time for Jam Hands
Shown is three coats of I Have No Time for Jam Hands with top coat.
I Have No Time for Jam Hands is a lovely muted purple jelly filled with an abundance of glitter. The sea of lavender is elevated by the specks of blue scattered throughout. Two coats was fine, and I almost left it at that. I did a third coat and am so glad I did. That extra bit of sparkle is well worth the extra bit of dry time!
$8
