Hello hello! Today I have a whole collection of pretties to share with you, hurray! If you guys have a membership at Costco you might have seen the new
Jenna Hipp What's Hot Now sets and wondered if they were any good. Well, never fear, I am here to answer that question for you (hint: the answer is they are
wonderful!) Today I'll share
The New Moderns -- be on the lookout for
The Brights soon!
First up is
Pinky Promise, a light pink creme. I love this color! I always love the classy, feminine look of light pink nails like this, but they usually have terrible formula so I don't always have the patience to create that look, lol. Not a problem here! Pinky Promise went on nice and smooth and was extraordinarily non-streaky considering how white it is. Three coats here with 1 coat
KB Shimmer Clearly On Top topcoat.

Next is
Pink Me, Pink Me! a sheer whitish pink creme. This one is more sheer and light than Pinky Promise -- reminds me a lot of the OPI Ballet polishes, almost crelly-ish. Even though it was kind of sheer (I used four coats with 1 coat topcoat here) it went on really well and wasn't really streaky at all. I really love this polish; so pretty and delicate!

Next up is
Life is But a Cream, a creamy ivory/almond creme. This one was a little sheer but not as much as Pink Me -- only needed 3 coats plus 1 coat of topcoat. I really like this as an alternative to white or nude -- pops like white but isn't nearly as stark. Very pretty color!

Next is
Ooh La Latte, a tan/taupe creme. This one was not sheer like the previous polishes -- only used 2 coats + 1 coat topcoat. I don't typically wear colors like this but it would make a great base for some nail art! And it definitely has a great formula.

Next,
Better Slate Than Never is a dark grayish/eggplant purple with pink shimmer. I actually didn't realize this one had shimmer until I got it out in the sun -- what a pleasant surprise, super pretty! This would make a great fall/winter color. Formula was great also -- I used 3 coats here + 1 coat topcoat, but it was perfectly opaque at just 2.

Next up is
Throwing Shade, a light grayish lilac creme. Great formula like the others -- like the last one, I used 3 coats + topcoat here, but 2 was just fine! No issues to report.

Next is
Sherbetcha, a pinky peach creme. This one pulls more pink than my pictures show (the shade pic is probably more accurate in that sense, but it is even pinker than that -- still definitely peachy though). Great formula like the rest! Shown here is 3 coats + 1 coat topcoat.

Last up is
This Is My Jam, a vampy deep reddish burgundy/wine jelly with the teensiest hint of hidden red shimmer. Gorgeous! I love vampy colors like this. Great formula like the rest, went on super shiny without topcoat since it is very jelly-ish, but I still did 3 coats + 1 coat topcoat.

I was super impressed with this pretties! I didn't know what to expect since I had never heard of the brand and they were fairly cheap (I think like only $8 for the set? My mom picked them up for me at Costco) so it was especially nice to discover how great their formulas were, how easy application was (I really liked the brush) and that the colors were really pretty. The Brights collection was just as good -- look forward to those swatches soon!
