Bobbi Brown TURQUOISE, TWILIGHT Nail Polish Swatches and Review – Desert Twilight Collection Fall 2012

Incorporating color and fun into the Fall 2012 Desert Twilight Collection, Bobbi Brown unveils two Nail Polish shades in Turquoise and Twilight.

What the Nordstrom website has to say about Bobbi Brown Nail Polish:

Bobbi does polish right. Rich color and desert-worthy hues instantly transform fingertips into your most covetable accessory for fall. Go twilight-glam with a shimmery plum shade boasting dark chocolaty depths or punctuate nails with an opaque blue, the color of polished turquoise.

Turquoise

A lot of polishes get named Turquoise, yet few actually ever remind me of Turquoise.  It’s safe to say that Bobbi Brown Turquoise IS the epitome of what turquoise is to be.  First coat is thin, if you do a second coat and keep it to the thick side you should be fine.  I used three coats in the swatch photo.  The finish ended up being perfect and super glossy, even without a top coat.

Twilight is an amazing eggplant purple with fine shimmer dust infused throughout.  A perfect matchy-match for Twilight Night Shimmer Ink!

I’m really impressed with the formula on both of these polishes.  I’ll admit, I wasn’t expecting to.  IDK if Bobbi Brown has ever done polish before, it’s not what I know the brand for… so I was a little apprehensive.  But WOW.  Bobbi needs to do polishes more often.  They both applied SO well and easily… It’s great to know that while Bobbi Brown may not release polishes often or at all before this (can anyone help me here?) that when she DOES do it, it’s done the right way.

For more information on this collection, please see the Official Press Release.

Bobbi Brown ‘Desert Twilight’ Nail Polish retail for $18.00 each and are available at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, and Sephora.  Both polishes are limited edition.
