ok, so its not that great (its on a mac postcard), but i'll try to do actual nail swatches tmrw or saturday for ya'll.

one coat and two coats.

the olive one is seriously the colour of an olive, and the dark green is a dark, forest green (no blue at all

hmm, i want Dry martini & Beyond Jealous (i wonder how beyond jealous compares to the dark green from OPI spanish collection) and maybe cool reserve if it's not too similar to parlez-vous OPI

i love nail polsies but i haven't make up my mind about these..at 12 bucks i don't think i will bite...MAC nail polishes aren't usually the best..it's a hit or miss with me

I have to say, in the end I've narrowed it down to Beyond Jealous and
Cool Reserve only, but I cannot wait for these!!!!!

Thanks for the swatches, Erin! I'm positive I can go without Rich, Dark, and Delicious so that shrinks my list to 4, 1 of which is for my mom anyway so it's really just 3 for me: Cool Reserve, Dry Martini, and Beyond Jealous.

Anyone seen the Butter London colors that are coming out. I'm really into that matte like finish. These look more shiny which was disappointing to me.

I saw the collection today!!! but i only swatched/played with 3 colors: beyond jealous, rich dark delicious, and dry martini... the formula was amazingly smooth to apply and sorta glossy... it was so easy to apply, so much better than seasonal peach. I really like beyond jealous and rich dark delicious, dry martini isn't my kind of color (it reminds me of poop, I work with babies so no offense anyone)

2 coats in natural light...yes my cuticles are dry and I was rushing to do these
