Where’d You Get That Awful Lipstick?
Price: $11.00 USD
Description: A pale pastel pink with a pink/orange/gold shifting shimmer
Inspiration: Allura
My swatches are 2 coats of polish and topped with 1 coat of top coat.
This dainty pink is an unexpected favorite of mine! I only did 2 coats to show that this polish is a little bit sheer, but I imagine if you did 3 coats, or just simply layered it over a white base, you would have full coverage and no nail line. I honestly am loving this one as is. This may actually be my favorite sheer polish because I can definitely see myself wearing it just this way again soon! Be sure to check out my low light photos so you can see how the shimmer just transforms in different lighting conditions.
This polish applied super easily and went on nice and smooth.
He’s A Snake
Price: $11.00 USD
Description: A navy blue jelly with blue and silver metallic flakies
Inspiration: Lance
My swatches are 2 coats of polish and topped with 1 coat of top coat.
I want to swim in this polish. I think this may be my favorite of the collection, but also I am super biased towards blues and silver–so especially these silver flakies. I love how much depth this polish has and it just glistens.
I also feel like I knew this polish would be gorgeous matte, but OH WOW it is better than I could have imagined. Honestly I’m just going to let the photos speak for themselves. 😉
This one applied like a dream and I felt no texture after only 1 coat of top coat.
You’re Only A Bunch Of Nuts And Bolts!
Price: $11.00 USD
Description: A medium green with green/gold/red shifting shimmer
Inspiration: Pidge
My swatches are 2 coats of polish and topped with 1 coat of top coat.
This dashing green is growing on me. I think I tend to not be the biggest fan of greens (only because I just don’t reach for the color much), but after putting this on and seeing how gorgeous the shimmer is, well I’m a big fan now! The contrasting green shimmer to the green polish is the perfect addition, and the green and gold compliment the shade very well. I hope I was able to capture the various colors of the shimmer in my photos! Also when matte, the shimmer just stands out so much and I love it!
It applied super easily, went on smooth, and 2 coats was plenty for full coverage.
Well, Then, Let’s Arch It Right Back At Him
Price: $11.00 USD
Description: A bold red with a red/gold shifting shimmer and holo micro flakies
Inspiration: Keith
My swatches are 2 coats of polish and topped with 1 coat of top coat.
This is a stunner! Honestly I am just in awe at how gorgeous and just in-your-face this red is. It honestly took my breath away a little bit. It is so very bold as the description mentions. Under my lights it just appears to glow a bright red / pink and I just can’t get enough of it. I hope I was also able to capture the orange shift in my photos–this is definitely easy to see in person, but under my bright lights I think it all sort of blended together a little bit more than it does in person. But I think you can see the lovely orange shift in one of my lower light photos.
It applied super easily and this one especially has such a nice formula. It just feeeeeeeeeeeeeeels fancy.
Hey! Save Some Action For Me!
Price: $11.00 USD
Description: A fiery orange with orange/gold shifting shimmer
Inspiration: Hunk
My swatches are 2 coats of polish and topped with 1 coat of top coat.
Just like the pink polish in this collection, this one is also a little bit sheer and I am loving it! It applied like a dream and this is just such a nice shimmer filled orange. Everything blends together so well that it appears to be one shade of orange, but then you turn your nails just a little bit and you see a different shade of orange / gold! Honestly, this one has me ready for fall and pumpkin manicures….But maybe I should stick to the Voltron inspiration for now. 😛
Let’s Go Voltron Force!
Price: $11.00 USD
Description: A black jelly with blue, red, green, copper and gold metallic flakies
Inspiration: Voltron
My swatches are 2 coats of polish and topped with 1 coat of top coat.
Oooooo metallic flakies! I am and always will be a big fan of these and REL creates such fabulous polishes with them.
This one applied super smooth and everything felt smooth after 1 coat of top coat. I am obsessed with this one matte as well. The flakies just shimmer and shine every way you turn your nails. This also seems to be one of those polishes that is stunning on its own, but also subtle and could make a great base for some nail art!

This lovely collection is going to make a great addition to my own personal collection (if I even can find room for it, I’m desperate for a trip to IKEA), and I hope they make it into your collection too! Comment below with your favorites! And “all 6” is not a wrong answer! 😉

I really love the first three, especially the green.
They’re all so good, but I agree! That green is fabulous!
