I've decided that I want to post collection promos once they come out as well as give my opinion.
Before these pictures were released everyone was scared because they thought the poppy.razzi collection was going to be the annual summer launch. But how could that be? It was only four colors, and the color story was all brights.
Well, here's your glimmer of hope, nail fanatics. Essie's Bikini So Teeny Collection promises six "seductive" shades including "intensely saturated brights" and "coquettish pearlescent pastels".
Bikini so Teeny — lustrous sky blue
Cascade Cool — frosty, shimmery pink
All Tied Up — molten bronze
Off the Shoulder — hot pink
Fear or Desire — bright orange
Mojito Madness - lime
For me, these don't read seductive. When I think seductive I think a red or a rich purple. Individually, I do like these colors but as a color story, it's not seductive. To me, it comes off trashy stripper.
It goes without saying that last year's Braziliant Collection was pretty popular, and this flops in comparison.
But let's talk about what I enjoy. I really do like the look of Off the Shoulder and Bikini So Teeny (if I had a nickel...) and I'll probably pick all of these up to review.
I feel like All Tied Up is kind of the oddball shade here. He's neither bright nor shimmery pastel, as the release advertises. He really resembles that one from the OPI Holland Collection, Wooden Shoe Like To Know? C'mon, brands. Promise me, if you're more original with your colors, and give us variety, you'll get sales.
On that note, I'll disclaim that the images are not mine. Goodnight! Voice your opinions down below- would you like reviews? Which ones will you be snagging for summer?
See you next time!
