Essie Chinchilly
Light greyed taupe (and ever-so-slightly greenish) creme. An interesting color. It's not a really a grey.
Essie Mink Muffs
Milk chocolate creme in some lights, dark taupe with a purply-mauve-y cast in others. See, I don't like this polish when it's milk chocolate. But when it's the weird shade that I can'tname, I really like it. So I'm a little bit torn on this one.
Final verdict? Thank god Essie's coming up with colors that aren't variations on pink or red. I just about gave up on it until the North Fork collex. And then I re-gave up on it with the overpriced, uninteresting "Hey! You can get a diamond, like a toy in a crackerjack box!" collex. But I had to pick some of these up. Not sure if I regret that or not.

I agree with you about the non pink-red part :-) that's good to see also other colors from Essie and I have to say I was surprised when I first saw the colors in this collection.
Chinchilly looks like ChG's Recycled to me... so I'm intrigued by the "not grey"ness of it.
Those were the two shades I was considering. We're on the same wavelength, flinty!
I've been wanting mink muffs very badly, but chinchilly didn't appeal to me (doesn't go with my skin tone). I think Angora Cardi might be a hit, but these are just so flippin' hard to find in Montreal/Canada
Darn, now looking at these two shades I want them. My favorites were the other two. They are both lovely shades. Your nails look gorgeous. Your photos are also brilliant.
definitely feeling mink muffs
Tuli: I'm glad they decided to shake it up. I mean, neons in a fall collection? Brilliant. :)
mKat: Recycle is much more of a saturated grey than Chinchilly and it has no brown or green tones.
xfoxglove: great minds!
lissa: What do people use in salons in Montreal?
lucy: Thanks so much!!
adrienne: glad you like. :)
