Hey dolls! I hope that those of you in the US enjoyed the long Labor Day weekend. I had an eventful weekend full of time well spent with family and friends. The theme for this week’s Twinsie Tuesday was to show a summer to fall transitional polish. I decided to go with Cirque NYFW, a gorgeous blue creme. This shade is perfect for the theme because in the sun it takes on a bright cobalt blue look, while indoors it has more of an inky blue appearance. NYFW’s formula was amazing! It was extremely pigmented, applied effortlessly, and was almost a one coater. I only did two coats for photo purposes to even out patchy spots on a few nails.

I loved NYFW so much, I used it for both my mani and pedi. I’ve never intentionally matched my toes and nails before, so there’s something special about this shade. I think it’s a smidge darker than most of the cobalt blues that were all the rage last year, but I’ll have to do formal comparisons.

NYFW is the first release from the Cirque The Metropolis collection. Here’s a little bit of the press sample for the this collection:

An ode to the city that never sleeps; the center of the universe; the metropolis. We are excited to introduce a range of creme-finished lacquers to our core lineup through a monthly release series called The Metropolis Collection.

What are your thoughts on NYFW? Even the name of this polish makes me think of transitioning from summer to fall. NY Fashion Week always signals the end of one season and the beginning of another in my book. Be sure to check out the looks from the other Twinsies below!
