C is for Color Club

I am actually posting on time for this ABC Challenge! Wooho!  I'll try and have a review post up tonight at some point too! Anyway, I picked 2 untried Color Club polishes for today's challenge and the end result...SPARKLE!


I started off with 4 coats of Color Club Metamorphosis...I could be wrong about the name since the set had no labels and I had to look the colors up.



I was really hoping to try and catch the purple shimmer that is hidden in this beautiful teal color. IRL it's very obvious that it's there, I just couldn't capture it on camera. I tried freezin my butt off outside in direct sunlight, I even tried water pix...it still wouldn't show. :( I did use 4 coats of this to get full opaqueness but it didn't cause it to dry slow or get thick since the formula itself was just really thin. 




Next I added Color Club Magic Attraction as a glitter gradient...a failed one but hey I tried! 



As you can see this is a holo glitter! Man is it sparkly! The formula was really thick so I had a bit of a hard time getting it to spread nicely, not to mention that I second guessed myself and decided to add more at the tips when in all actuality it was perfectly fine! Oh well.




Metamorphosis came in a set of 7 that I found at Ross for $5.99. 
Magic Attraction also came in a set of 7. I received it as a Christmas gift so I'm not sure how much my in-laws paid for it but I believe they picked it up at TJ Maxx.

Thanks for visitng! Make sure to check out the other lovely ladies in the challenge!

    Love the gradient. I also own that color and it's definitely Metamorphosis. It's strange that they remove the label in the US, they don't do that here in the Netherlands

    Yes, I also think it's Metamorphosis. Such a beautiful color, I bought it last year during Cosmoprof Worldwide. The glitter gradient is simply stunning!!! :)

    I have a lot of Color Club polishes but I don't have Metamorphosis yet. Looks lovely, I might have to add it to my ever growing wishlist :P Magic Attraction I do have and it can be a bit of a pain to apply but it's also so pretty and sparkly it's worth the extra trouble :)

    I think you did a great job with this mani :)
