What's Up Nails Desert Monsoon Collection

What's Up Nails Desert Monsoon Collection - Swatches & Review

What's Up Nails have recently expanded their range to include regular nail polish! I was so excited when they reached out to me and asked if I would like to try them. I am a big fan of their stamping polishes (and plates) so of course I was curious to try out their regular polish. This six piece collection is called the Desert Monsoon Collection and was released along side an eyeshadow palette and make up brushes. Now I don't have the eyeshadow palette or the make up brushes but I do have the polishes to share with you.

Desert Rose is a light pink crelly with gold shimmer. This is a really pretty and soft colour. The formula is easy to use and applies evenly. For my swatch I used three coats.

Downpour is a blue chrome shimmer with iridescent blue to purple duochrome shimmer. I love the colour of this one. It's gorgeous. The formula is also great and easy to use. My swatch shows two coats.

Joshua Tree is a light brown creme. This is a nice shade with an amazing formula. My swatch shows one coat.

Succulent is a purple crelly with pink to purple iridescent duochrome flakes and holographic flakies. This is another polish that I love. The colour is beautiful and the formula is good. For my swatch I used three coats, however you can stop at two coats.

Sun is a gold chrome shimmer with iridescent gold to green duochrome shimmer. This is quite an interesting shade but I am not sure I am a fan of it on my nails. The formula is easy to work with however it does make for really messy clean up. The shimmer also stuck to my fingers and would budge! I used three coats for my swatch but you can stop at two coat.

Tempest is a mauve creme. I'm really on the fence with this one. I'm not sure if I like it or I don't. The formula is great and is opaque in one coat.

This collection gives me mixed feelings. There are a couple of polishes that I love (Downpour and Succulent), the cremes have amazing formulas and a couple of polishes I'm on the fence whether I like the colours. But that's just my personal thoughts. What do you think of this collection?

The Desert Monsoon Collection is available now from What's Up Nails.
