Milani Limited Edition Retro Glam Nail Lacquer Collection Swatches, Review

(Media sample)

I love simple, summery cream polishes for this time of the year.  It helps to really celebrate the summer when I see bright creams on my tips and toes.

Milani launches that Retro Glam nail polish collection that has five summery cream shades, and one black and white glitter topper called Sprinkles.  The other glitter topper in these swatches is called Carnival which is part of Milani Fantastical Plumage collection that I just swatched and reviewed.

Here are my thoughts and swatches on the Milani Retro Glam collection:

Milani Nail Lacquers

I've featured several Milani cosmetics here on my blog, so you guys know that I am a fan of this brand. I've had the pleasure of trying out Milani nail lacquers. This is not the first time I've tried them. I've been using Black Cherry on my toes since last year, and it's a beautiful deep burgundy color that really makes the toes so pretty. I always wear open-toed heels and this color just looks sexy any way you look at it. What I didn't realize though that Milani carries a whole slew of colors to suit your style. They have an entire gamut of colors, from the classic neutrals to rich, vibrant jewel colors that take you anywhere from the boardroom to the beach to the bar. I also like that they don't peel off as easily as other brands, and since Milani is known for department store-quality cosmetics with drugstore prices, their nail lacquers are topnotch yet affordable as well.


Sorry for the sloppy application! It was hurriedly applied just to show swatches of the lacquers.

As you can see in the picture, the colors are definitely vibrant and the jewel colors are alluringly pretty. It also shows that the product doesn't streak and leaves an even coating on the nail surface. I hate nail lacquers that streak even when carefully applied. As I said, the products were hurriedly applied on my nails, and I have yet to see streaks.

I really vouch for this brand because I have been using it for quite a while and it is one of my favorite (if not the most favorite) drugstore brands. Do check out their entire selection of products. I will be featuring more Milani products in future posts, so stay tuned.
