Press Sample
Cynthia of Alter Ego did another collection based on fan requests. Just like the Fan Favorites collection, the fans chose the theme of Jurassic Park and chose the names. They also chose the chrome metallic finish! I have only seen the original movie once, so I don't know all the references but I can still love all the colors!

The entire collection is this metallic chrome shimmer finish and guess what, they all stamp! Most of them can give you complete coverage in one coat, especially if you don't have long nails or an opaque free edge.
Clever Girl: 1-2 coats plus top coat. This is a rich brown shimmer, with blue undertones. It reminds me of chocolate. Now I want chocolate!

Forever in Amber: 2 coats plus top coat. This is my favorite of the collection! It's such a great yellow gold and no lobster hands! I think it will suit many skin tones. I love this type of gold. It would make for a beautiful sunset gradient with Women Inherit the World (keep reading).

Hold Onto Your Butts: 1 coat. This one is definitely a one coater, and I did not experience any staining upon removal. It's a very rich sapphire blue, with the same metallic chrome shimmer finish.

Nice Boy: 2 coats plus top coat. This lavender is actually very bright and vibrant! It covered really nicely and it pops with that metallic finish.

Women Inherit the World: 2 coats plus top coat. This is a cool color. It's like a coppery pink color, with orange peach undertones. Since they all have the same finish, it's the base colors that set them a part. This one is lovely and my second favorite of the collection.

As I mentioned earlier, all the colors stamp! I stamped the four colors over Clever Girl, the brown. Then I topped it with matte top coat. Obviously, these REALLY show up over light colors, but I was impressed how they showed up over the dark brown!

Alter Ego Velociraptor Collection will debut at Indie Expo Canada, taking place in Toronto on June 10th. You can find all the information for Indie Canada Expo HERE. They will be available after the event on Alter Ego's web site.
Each polish retails for $9.50. Alter Ego's are 17mL so they are larger than the typical polish! You can also use EHMKAYNAILS for 20% off your order! I love that these all stamp, so I get wear a pretty polish and use it for art! My absolute favorite is Forever in Amber!
