Chelsea Kiwi Sprakle

So I picked up Kiwi Sparkle the other week because it looked like the perfect summer green....unfortunately I wasn't in love with it. I don't think the green was very flattering with my skin tone, but I have to say, I wore it for a couple of days and got a lot of compliments on it. I think I may try to layer it over a darker color before I give up on it.


Here it is in sunlight:




and shade:


What do you think of the color? Win or fail?

Thanks for looking!

Chelsea: Kaleidoscope

Kaleidoscope is similar to Tropic of Cancer, but Kaleidoscope doesn't really have any blue to it like TOC does. Kaleidoscope has a purple base and both colors have a strong green flash and some gold shimmer.

Look at the gold shimmer in the bottle:




I don't think Chelsea makes anymore duochromes...I'll have to check. Cuz there are a bunch of dusties that carry a ton of their colors, I've just never really spent time looking through all of them. Does anyone else have any Chelsea color recommendations? The only other two I have are Oscar Blue and Salsa.

Thanks for looking!

Chelsea: Tropic of Cancer

So, I've decided this is official Duochrome week, so make sure to enlarge the picks this week to see the details. And to start us off, is one of Chelsea's awesome colors called Tropic of Cancer.

I guess your'd call this one a multichrome. It flashes purple, blue, green and a hint of gold. Just look at the bottle color:


and in the direct sunlight, you can see all the colors, blue and green are strongest and you get a bit of purple, the gold seems to loose itself on the nail, but the bottle shows it off nicely:







Thanks for looking!

Chelsea Kaleidoscope

This is Chelsea's Kaleidoscope. It's a duochrome that flashes grayish blue and green.


Does anyone remember my post about the Toma Metallic Illusion polishes? Toma's Heavenly Body is a dead on dupe to Kaleidoscope. Here is a side by side comparison; the Toma one is on the left and Chelsea is on the right.....


Pretty close, huh?

So, I've decided the rest of this week is going to be Franken week, and I have some good ones to show you later ♥
