PRESS SAMPLE
I am back with another lovely collection from Pin-Up Paint!
This one is inspired by some lovely ladies with (you guessed it) big hair, and it features colors that should inspire a 70s disco / retro vibe!

This lovely new collection has 6 polishes and they will be available starting December 31st. This collection will also feature new bottles (just for this collection though)! These are 12 ml bottles and the regular Pin-Up Paint bottles are 10.5 ml. Each bottle will cost $12.00 USD, and the full collection of 6 will be $65.00 USD.
The preorders will go live 12/31 at 7:00 AM PT / 8:00 AM MT / 9:00 AM CT / 10:00 AM ET
My swatches below are all over a peel off base coat and they are topped with a quick dry top coat and / or a matte top coat for some of the photos.
I want to start out by saying that I am in love with this whole collection. I don’t want to repeat myself six times, so I will say now that *ALL* of these polishes applied so very easily! They glide on and are so smooth in their application. Some do require 3 coats of polish and I have learned to not rush and let each layer dry at least a little bit between coats. This led to me finally not smudging my swatches! haha!
I did not notice any staining left behind from any of these colors, but I was only swatching over a peel off base coat. I am not saying that these do stain (I didn’t test for it), but some colors could stain after longer wear (greens seem to stain my nails sometimes), so just be sure to wear a base coat just incase! 🙂
Pam
Description: A cherry red with a touch of pink shimmer.
Price: $12.00 USD
My swatches are two coats of polish over a peel off base coat, and topped with a quick dry top coat. I had no application issues.
This is an adorable red! The description says a touch of pink shimmer but it’s definitely quite visible and I love it! It just has a pearly / opalescent look to it and I am definitely digging it!
Jerry
Description: Rich orange creme
Price: $12.00 USD
My swatches are two coats of polish over a peel off base coat, and topped with a quick dry top coat. I had no application issues.
I would say that this one is the unique one in the collection since it is a creme! I’m not usually one for oranges, but this is a nice muted “fall” orange I would call it. (Maybe that is unfair though because almost all oranges make me think of fall.) It is not “in your face bright” orange, but rather it’s subtle and smooth. I could actually see myself wearing this one again! Maybe even with some stamping!
Gloria
Description: Lemony shimmer with flecks of gold.
Price: $12.00 USD
My swatches are two coats of polish over a peel off base coat, and topped with a quick dry top coat. I had no application issues.
What a bright shimmery yellow! Now yellow is another color I don’t find myself reaching for very often, but this one is lovely! It is making me want to do a spring inspired mani, but no! I must resist as I love winter and the snow that is finally here! I am digging the extra shimmer though and I think this is a great addition to any yellow polish lovers collection!
Diana
Description: A mint green shimmer
Price: $12.00 USD
My swatches are three coats of polish over a peel off base coat, and topped with a quick dry top coat. I had no application issues.
Alright. This may be one of my very favorite greens that I own. Just look at my macro photo and that shimmer! Oh my goshhhhh. This one is just so fun and bright and I cannot wait to wear it again. I also can’t decide if I prefer it shiny or matte……but I love both ways!
Nancy
Description: A rich teal blue shimmer
Price: $12.00 USD
My swatches are three coats of polish over a peel off base coat, and topped with a quick dry top coat. I had no application issues.
Now if Bianca (the next polish below on my blog) isn’t my favorite, well I think Nancy must be. This is a fantastic blue with an even more fantastic shimmer! And incase you’re wondering, I didn’t really brighten (I did have to darken a few photos that were just ultra bright) or edit any of my photos to make these polishes glow. They just look this fabulous normally!
I cannot wait to wear this one again! Hopefully I do my nails soon!
Bianca
Description: Ice blue sheer polish with a shimmer finish
Price: $12.00 USD
My swatches are three coats of polish over a peel off base coat, and topped with a quick dry top coat. I had no application issues.
If I had to pick a favorite from the collection, it might be Bianca….or Nancy….but I love icy blues and this is sure a fabulous one. Check out the low light shimmer photo for a look at just how much it glows! I also really need to test this out over black or as a topper! But I really like it by itself as well.
Well there you have it folks!
