I’m not usually almost never into cremes. However, for some reason, this grouping of colors was calling my name… softly. But I heard them! They initially struck me as somewhat pastel. That is, until I put them on. Boy they were bright. Bright enough to signal boats at sea… from Nebraska. So I figure if pastels and fluorescent polishes did the dirty and created baby polishes, this is what they’d look like.
Of course, as with all the newer collections, these weren’t named. So it was up to my dear daughter (remember, the one that is 24) and I to come up with nifty names for them. This is becoming almost as much fun as the swatching. We wanted the theme to be happy. We immediately veered to cartoons. After sifting through several of them, we decided we couldn’t center on just one series. So then we started thinking about characters. Eventually, being the girly girls we are (with attitude, mind you), we decided to name them after….. well, you’ll figure it out!
These were for the most part, 3 coaters. I experienced alot of bald spots if I didn’t allow the layers to semidry – including the basecoat. As with alot of Icing polishes, a top coat is definately needed.
If this teal to the left looks familiar, you have the memory of a steel trap. It’s the same teal that was in the “Which One Doesn’t Belong” collection. I’m a tad surprised at how often this is starting to happen with Icing collections. Hopefully they won’t make a habit of this. On top of the lack o’ names, it could become quite aggrevating.

these are all beautiful & great names you came up with!
I love these so much! Awesome colours and your names are perfect.
Also, I am digging your longer nail length!
Princesses! How sweet. It’s funny how much nicer that teal looks when it’s surrounded by other cremes.
I love the names – they seem to match perfectly!
I’m like you – I think I only have two or three cremes! But “Jasmine” and “Mulane” are pretty.
These seem like Misa’s “Fast Lane” collection.
These are very pretty. Your nails are also looking so lovely. I don’t own any Icing polish. I’d like to! What colors and enjoying your Disney names. Maybe you should send your ideas to the company!
I just love these colors! They’re awesome!!
“Aurora” and “Jasmine” are just perfect to me and even chosen names are very cool! =)
After your “which one doesn’t belong” post I went back through my Icing & Claire’s polish collection. (BTW, I love that you name them. Polish without a name is so frustrating!) I found several dupes from my unnamed minis with other full-sized Icing colors and Claire’s colors. I’m starting to think that it isn’t an accident that they don’t label the ones in their “limited edition” collections.
