NYC City Sweets

While I was out with my lovely Mumsy a couple weekends ago she tagged along as I went from KMart, to Walgreens, to Rite-Aid, to CVS, Sally's and eventually Wal-Mart.  She really is the best MOM!!!  Anyway, while browsing Rite-Aid the new, limited edition NYC City Sweets Collection was out on display.  My instant reaction was.."You are coming home with me!!"  After I got them home I realized that I already own these colors in many other collections!!  To be honest, I knew that at the store but was in denial!!  Oh, the issues of being a polish-oholic!

If you are looking for a set of pretty pastels that don't cost an arm and a leg I recommend this collection.  I really like NYC In A Minute polishes.  The formula is good and the dry time is amazing!  The City Sweets Collection follows the same formula.  They are easy to apply and are opaque in 2 coats. 

If you are planning on adding these to your stay I say hurry up!  In my area I have only seen them at Rite-Aid and only in 2 of the 3 I visited.  They are selling fast!

I only purchased 3 of the 4 in the collection because the pastel green was not available.  I am just going to include all 3 in this post, so it will be pretty long with lots of pictures!!

These swatches are shown with out a base or top coat in an attempt to show them as accurately as possible. 2 coats for each polish.

First is Lavender Cupcake, a soft, lavender that is simply gorgeous!

Second, Peaches'n'Cream, which, to me looks mroe like a soft orange instead of peach.  More of a orange-y, coral instead of peachey.

Last, City Sweets Pink, a soft, bubblegum pink.

These will be perfect for stamping because they dry so fast!
