China Glaze Summer Neons 2012 – Review & Swatches

Hello again! I told you I would be posting up a storm this weekend! I know I’m totally late to the ball game on posting these and I apologize! But it’s better late than never right? RIGHT! First of all, I am in LOVE with this entire collection. In my opinion, these are the perfect neons and the application on all of them was amazing! The only downside for me was there were too many pinks in my opinion.

Yes – my camera freaked out on most of these, but that’s to be expected when you try to photograph neons. I tried to capture the colors as BEST as I could, but keep in mind colors will vary from screen to screen. Let’s just get to the swatches!

Beach Cruise-R – Neon purple with a subtle violet shimmer. Probably one of my favorites from this collection! Picture below shows two coats. 

Flirty Tankini – Coral neon! This is MUCH brighter in person! 

Hang Ten-Toes – I’ve been wearing this one a lot recently.. I love the violet shimmer it has! 

I’m With The Lifeguard – Words can’t even begin to express how truly bright this color is. One of the BEST neon greens I have seen in a long time!

Love’s A Beach – If Barbie wore neons, this would be her signature color. Absolutely stunning! 

Orange You Hot? – This color reminds me of good ole’ Mac & Cheese. It’s a really fun color to wear as an accent or on your toes!

Pink Plumeria – As I was swatching, I made sure to note this was a salmon pink. Which is really odd to me. It’s not as bright as the other colors, but it’s still a nice polish to transition into Fall!

Ride The Waves – Dark blue jelly polish. There is no shimmer in this one (That I could tell) .. It does build up nicely though if you don’t want too much VNL (Visible Nail Line) I used 2 coats below, and you can still see it. 

Splish Splash – I have no idea WHY this photographed so dark. It’s actually much brighter than this! It has a gorgeous blue shimmer that thankfully transfers onto the nail! 

Sunkissed – Holy wow. Talk about a highlighter yellow color! I can’t even tell you how much I love this one! 

Surfin For Boys – Another neon coral shade.. This again should be much brighter, but of course my camera kind of freaked out. 

Under The Boardwalk – Dark Fuchsia jelly! Another great color from this collection that will be great for the Fall & Winter! 

What are your favorites from the Summer Neon collection? Will you wear any of these all year round?
Availability – Nail Polish Canada / Ulta / Sally Beauty
Price – Varies
Facebook – China Glaze Official / Nail Polish Canada
Lacquer Lowdown – Overall, this collection is by far my favorite from China Glaze. The formula on these was absolutely amazing and the color range was outstanding. I don’t know about you, but I will probably wear these ALL year round! (It will make me feel better when there’s 8 ft of snow on the ground in December!)
