China Glaze - Fall 2008 - Rodeo Diva Collection

I remember seeing this back in 2008, before leaving for India. I was so tempted to buy it, but didn't. I really didn't want to buy it, then try to lug it to India or worse yet, leave it behind. So I didn't buy it.

The nail polish guy I go to here in AZ had these puppies on CLEARANCE for a mere dollar. HOLLA!!! I grabbed as many as I could, but sadly, not all colors are here. I'm not about to go and buy from an e-tailer because the colors I'm missing aren't ones I think I really I want, anyway.

 
 This was definitely one where I went, "I don't like this color in the bottle, but boy do I love it on me!" It's a super rich raspberry tone that's broke up with a lovely frost.


 
I love green nail polish and this is no exception. I didn't understand the fuss, now I do. Definitely one that I am happy to have in my collection!


Now this...this really stole my heart - can you see why? I swear it reminds me of my favorite colors from my junior high days. This color was flattering on my skin tone - definitely a keeper, too!


So the girl who loves dark nail polish (that's me!) loved this, too...despite the faint shimmer running through this. This was such a deep dark eggplant kind of purple that I ended up liking the faint shimmer. It brought a kind of depth that I didn't know I'd truly appreciate until I saw it on me.


A lovely ocean blue nail polish with a shimmer and and some subtle micro glitter thrown in for good measure...and what a difference that makes!


This is another eggplant-y shade that they had...but they threw in some warm gold micro glitter that really...really made this color seem slightly bronze-y and just a beautiful shade to have on your nails.


Ok, now this...this is the total surprise for me of the collection. Not quite a black nail polish, but the base was so dark a green it appeared black. Then they had put some shimmer to it that was gold. The result? A gorgeously mysterious dark green nail polish with some beautiful gold/bronze shimmer. A real gem!
