I was sent all but the yellow one (Creme Puffs) for review. I couldn't decide which to use first, so I used them all! I put white zebra print on top to make them look even more cohesive. Individual swatches later.


Pistachio Dream
Mint green with slight shimmer. Not so noticeable on the nail. Pictured is 3 coats. 
It dried not entirely shiny, so it really benefited from topcoat.

 
 See how pretty the shimmer is in the bottle?
 It reminds me a lot of China Glaze Keep Calm, Paint On. 
The shimmer is slightly different, but they are very similar otherwise.

Macaroon Me Madly
Peachy/Coral creme pastel.  Pictured is 3 coats. If you can tell there is some settling in the bottom of the bottle. It's more yellow there. I made sure to shake it up thoroughly, but it didn't stay mixed for very long.



Lacey Lilac
 Pastel creme purple. I found this one to be the best formula within the collection. 
Easily applied with even coverage in 2 coats.



 Royally Yours
Pastel creme blue. I am a sucker for light blue nail polishes. That is my absolute favorite color to wear on my nails. Sometimes the formula can be tricky on light blues and they end up streaky, but not this one! 
3 thin coats and it was beautiful!



 The Palace Life
Light pink creme pastel. Pictured is 3 coats. I didn't have any troubles with applying it, I just feel like this color has been done to death.
