Maybelline Fall

I know these polishes came out last month and I am posting them a bit late (you should know this by now =P) I only picked up two shades from Maybelline's latest release. A dark green creme (of course) and a grey shimmer. First up is Gray-T Glamour, the grey shimmer, in natural lighting and then again in full sunlight. This applied very well and was perfect in two coats. The shimmer just didn't want to photograph, sorry!

And here is Grand in Green which is a very very dark green that looks almost black. Why do I do this to myself?? :( Don't know why it looks like there is shimmer in this picture, but I guarantee you that there is none and is indeed a creme. This also applied well in two coats.

The rest of the collection had a few other colors that looked almost black which I passed on. There was also a brick red that was in the same collection as Gray-T Glamour, but I already have a favorite brick red. I like that Maybelline has been coming out with more trendy colors this past year. Definitely gives the drug store shopper more options than usual.

Anyone else catch this recent collection from Maybelline? Which are your favorites?

  5. I bought Grand in Green and to me, it looks like there is the faintest shimmer. Sadly, I am returning it because the brush is wonky (the edge is all raggedy & uneven), although I do like that they're doing their own version of the pro-wide brush.

  11. Darn, I wish polish companies would stop with the almost black polishes. I want a dark green that looks green. If I want black, I'll wear black. The grey is very pretty. I have quite a few greys. Maybe after awhile they'll turn up in the Dollar Store!
