Julie G Cruise Collection – Swatches & Review

Press Sample
Hello beauties! Today I have the absolutely stunning Cruise collection from Julie G & Jesse’s Girl Cosmetics to share with you! This collection is probably my favorite from hers EVER. These shades are absolutely perfect for Spring & Summer and as always the formula was wonderful!  I had the pleasure of meeting Julie herself at IMATS NY and she was SO nice!

Now onto the swatches! 
Canary Islands – Canary yellow cream. You guys. This is hands down the BEST yellow I have ever worn! It is so bright & cheery and full of sunshine! This was the pic I teased you all with last night and the positive response was overwhelming! This is in fact TWO coats plus top coat. I did not have to use a white polish underneath. The first coat went on a tad streaky but once you put the second one on, it evens out very nicely. HIGHLY recommend picking this up!
Miami Beach – Coral pink cream.  Another gorgeous shade. I have a feeling this will be on my toes a ton this season! Formula was super creamy and I only needed two coats plus top coat for the photo below. 

Old San Juan – Peachy orange cream. This is SO much brighter and vibrant in real life! This photo doesn’t even do it justice at all. It’s one of those shades that makes you look incredibly tan. Photo below shows two coats plus top coat. 

Rio De Janeiro – Radiant orchid purple cream.  Julie did it right with this vibrant color of the year shade! Super creamy formula. Photo below shows two coats plus top coat. 

Santorini – Periwinkle blue with a slight shimmer throughout. When talking to Julie at IMATS, I’m pretty sure she mentioned this was her favorite from the line.. and I can see why! It’s absolutely stunning! Photo below shows two coats plus top coat. 

Tahiti – Mint green with subtle shimmer. When I saw this one, the angels immediately parted and started singing. Perfection!  This is definitely a shade I plan on wearing all year round! It looks awesome paired with Santorini as well! Photo below shows two coats plus top coat. 

Overall, I am OBSESSED with this entire collection. The formula on each one of these was nothing but perfect. JulieG polishes are hands down the BEST in the drugstore and for the price, you can’t beat it!  I seriously just need to splurge one day and buy every single shade there is. I would choose these over high end polishes any day of the week! 
Which one is your favorite from the collection?
