Cashmere or Loose Me
A creamy milk chocolate brown with a hidden copper shimmer. The shimmer is very faint, but it was a pleasant surprise since it is not visible in the bottle. Formula on this was nice, two coats for full coverage. It reminds me a bit of OPI Wooden Shoe Like to Know? from the spring Holland collection. Although it is bit lighter and not as much shimmer. Swatches are with a top coat...

Tight Knit
A chocolate brown cream. The formula on this was very smooth. Two coats for full coverage. It is probably my favorite of the browns in this collection. Looked like I dipped my nails into melted chocolate. This is with a top coat...

Unraveled Rust
A dark brown cream. This also had a great formula. Two coat for full coverage. I'm not sure where the "rust" part of the name comes from, but regardless, this color is a winner for me. I like that it is very dark without crossing over into black. Swatches are with a top coat...

Wool You Marry Me?
A reddish brown cream. I would almost call it darkened brick brown. Great formula as the polishes above. Two coats with a top coat here...

Cowl of the Wild
A swampy greenish brown. I'm not a fan of this color as in some light it can look dirty milk brown and in another light the green tint shows up. The formula on this is thinner than the rest and when I applied the first coat, no good thoughts came to mind. I applied two coats plus a top coat for these swatches. A third coat probably would have been good since I could see bald spots when taking photos that I didn't see before...

Overall I'm really impressed with this collection. I didn't think it was possible to make a whole line of just brown polishes and still have them look so different. My favorite two are Tight Knit and Unraveled Rust.
I did make nail art with these as I was wearing them throughout the past week and I will show you what I came up with over the next few days. I hope you will enjoy it.
Have you tried any of these? What do you think of them?
Thanks for looking!
