Cirque Colors brings 5 new shades to their Facets line, and I'm here to show you my swatches and tell my thoughts about them.
CITRINE
It's a juicy, yet burnt orange jelly base with holo flakes. Since last Summer, this kind of orange shades became one of my favorite colors, so it's not a secret that Citrine is my absolute favorite from the collection, even though it did stained my nails a tiny bit (I was wearing it for 6 days).
3 thin coats + 2 coats of topcoat (because it contains those "curly flakes" too - well, all of them has tose in this collection)
AMETHYST
It's a really dark, neutral toned purple base with holo flakes.
2 coats + 2 coats of topcoat
PERIDOT
It's a bright, warm toned medium green jelly base with holo flakes.
3 thin coats + 2 coats of topcoat
TOURMALINE
It's a raspberry pink jelly base with holo flakes.
3 thin coats + 2 coats of topcoat
CRUSHED ICE
It's a clear base packed with holo flakes. It has a lot more flake than the rest, but of course they have to deliver the coverage, and they do, in 2 coats (+ 2 coats of topcoat)
So, these have both smaller and bigger flakes in them, and some of those bigger flakes tend to curl up, which will result a grittier surface, you will have to use 2 coats of topcoat to even out the texture. These flakes were a bit hard to remove.
But I gotta say, they look pretty awesome on the nails, and I actually can't wait to wear Citrine again!
The collection is already available at the Cirque Colors website, and at their stockist.
