Fave color

One of my all time favorite colors

The classic that keeps on giving!

The hype for this shade is absolutely earned - every time I catch a glimmer of it on my nails I can only call it perfection!

Absolutely beautiful!!

It is a beautiful color. The last time I had my nails done, I tried it and decided I needed to buy some. I looked in different stores, but they were out of that color. So I decided to try on line. I am happy to have it!

Everyone needs this one

This colour is one of those polishes that looks amazing on everyone. The formula is a little thin but builds easily in 2-3 coats and it's worth it. I love the finish and the depth of this red is unbelievable! I would describe it as a shimmering metallic cranberry red. It's simply stunning and a holiday must have.
