Cirque Colors - Burlesque Collection

October 04, 2014

Today I have another stunning fall collection to share with you, this time it's the Burlesque Collection from Cirque Colors. The collection consists of four deep holographic shades which are just perfect for this season! So let's get a closer look at this beauty.

About The Burlesque Collection

From musicians to magicians, Cirque Colors drew inspiration from vaudeville shows of the early 20th century to create a 4-piece fall collection called Burlesque. These sultry holographic shades embody the lush and dramatic stripteases that put such acts like the British Blondes and Gypsy Rose Lee on the map. Josephine, a dark forest green, pays homage to Josephine Baker (the original twerker) and her famous banana dance. While the navy blue hue of Trocadero represents a night out on the town at the historic Philadelphia theater.

Harlow is an antique gold with a rainbow holographic finish.

This polish has such a unique gold tone and I think that it's name describes it perfectly. After seeing the sneak peek of this collection I was curious to see it up close, and let me tell you this - it's even more spectacular than you can imagine! It's unlike any gold-holographic polish I own!

The formula was great; very easy to apply, not streaky or thin, I only needed two easy coats for a perfect coverage.

Josephine is a blackened green with a rainbow holographic finish.
This is such a lovely forest green shade, I was quite surprised to see that it wuited my skin tone. I'm usually not a fan of green nail polish, but this one has a very dark and interesting color.
Again, very good and opaque formula. With dark shades like these, some of you might even suffice with just one coat.

Trocadero is a navy blue with a rainbow holographic finish.
This was another beautiful color that I didn't expect to like at first, but it looked so nice on the nails! Beautiful dark blue tone and a stunning holographic effect, you can't go wrong with it.
Here I used two coats, but then again - even one coat looked quite opaque and even.

Boudoir is a vampy burgundy with a rainbow holographic finish.
This color is without a doubt my favorite from this collection! Such an amazing purple/burgundy shade, it's holographic effect was the strongest among the four. I'm absolutely in love! Believe me when I say that my photos don't do it justice, it's way more gorgeous in person.

The Burlesque Collection is now available for purchase at Cirque Colors and at their official Stockist page. The colors retail for $13 each.
I can't wait to see what Cirque Colors will come up with next! It looks like each time they manage to surprise us with new mesmerizing shades and effects, so I'm completely hooked on their new releases!
I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know which shade from the Burlesque Collection is your favorite!
