Cirque's newest offering is their Metropolis collection: a series of creme nail polishes inspired by New York City. There are new polishes added to the line every month, and today's swatches cover the September and October releases. These polishes are all normal glossy cremes, but since I'm obsessed with all things matte, I wanted to share the shades with a matte topcoat as well. I think they all translate beautifully to matte.
NYFW was the release in September. It's a gorgeous, rich deep cobalt shade. It's a little darker than some of the other cobalts in my range. The formula was great and it covered nicely at two coats.
I've used Essie Matte About You as the matte topper in the second swatch.
La Vie Boheme is a black cherry creme. I wore this one as a full manicure, and I kept trying to pin the name of the color throughout the day... Was it plum? Was it raisin? Then finally... BLACK CHERRY! It was the perfect descriptor, to me. It's a very deep shade, looks very dark on the hand, but never so dark as to look black. Two coats.
The Metropolis collection is available now on CirqueColors.com, where each shade retails for $13. Be sure to keep an eye out for the November release, which should be hitting blogs soon!
Gorgeous colors and love seeing them both glossy and matte.
ReplyDeleteThat gray polish is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteNYFW is GORGEOUS matte! I think I like it better matte than glossy.
ReplyDeleteOMG that blue polish matte-ified! I'm throwing money at my screen, when is it getting here? lol!
ReplyDeleteThe mattefied version is so up my alley. I was just complaining on my blog that Italian brands have a hard time understanding the true meaning of the word "matte". Satin, at most... Cirque is such a great brand!
ReplyDeleteAll the nail shades are amazing, I love the matte finish. They would go with every single AW14 outfit. 😍
