Universe Collection
L-R: 03 Cosmic, 04 Nebula, 05 Comet, 06 Meteorite, 07 Galaxy, 08 Lunar, 09 Solar, 11 Star and 10 Gravity. |
010 Gravity, 011 Star, 009 Solar, 008 Lunar (007 Galaxy) |
The black Gravity polish is a one-coater. The Lunar polish is a silver
metallic foil. That made me think the golden Solar might be too. But it
is not. It is a sheer pearly polish. Galaxy is a glass fleck. Meteorite is
a well pigmented shimmery polish. Comet and Nebula has a metallic
feel to them. And lastly Cosmic, a flake polish with a black tinted base.
(007 Galaxy), 006 Meteorite, 005 Comet, 004 Nebula, 003 Cosmic |
And even though the bottles are small (0.2 fl.oz./6ml) the brushes are
not too small and are fairly easy to work with. The polishes seem to dry
pretty fast and most of them are really glossy when dry. All swatches
are two coats, with no top coat. Photos are taken in natural light.
You can buy the Coat polishes on the Coastal Scents website.
$.99 each or the full collection for $23.99
