Caronia Bright Nights Collection

TGIF!

Today I'll show Caronia's Bright Nights Collection. I first thought this is a new release (when I saw the billboard), but I later realized this is a re-release. Bright Nights was launched fourth quarter last year. But anyways, it's great to see this pretties on the shelves again. :)

From L-R: Gold Rush, Lounge, Stellar, Trance
On to the swatches!

Gold Rush is a gold foil. Not as bright as yellow gold, but kind of muted/tarnished. But it still is packed with bling.


I used two coats for this one. Formula has the right amount of thickness to it. And I like it. Makes for easy application.

I like how this is not as in-your-face as other gold polishes tend to be. Or not as grandma-ish (read: gold frost *shudders*).


Here's Lounge.


Hmmm. Not exactly thrilled with this. I would've liked this green foil deeper. Formula's a bit thin; I used three coats. But you can still see some bald spots. :-/


And now, my favorite of the bunch, STELLAR.


Caronia has definitely nailed the name. I love it! Thing is, they described it as a red foil. Foil, yes. But red? Definitely not. This is deep pink to me. Or fuchsia, if you will. Well, a tad lighter than fuchsia, but you get the point. :D

This is an amazing one-coater. But I used two for swatching.Can't wait to wear this again. Pink Wednesday perhaps? ;)


And here's Trance.


Looove the pigmentation! But of course, I love anything purple, te-he. Two coats and I got this lovely finish.

Here's another shot that shows off its darker hue.


Overall, I love this collection. Not exactly the most unique shades, but I am happy that Caronia is releasing different finishes now, unlike way back when all I saw were cremes and frosts. They now have glass flecks and foils. Needless to say, I'm a happy camper. :)

These colors are definitely for showing off at a night-out with the girls. But I'm still on the fence about Lounge. Maybe for Christmas? :))

Enjoy your weekend!
