Jessica Cosmetics Gelato Mio Collection Swatches & Review

Hi there!

Today I am showing you the new Jessica Cosmetics Summer 2012 collection, this collection is called Gelato Mio and is inspired by 'the mouthwatering flavors of Italian ice cream, and the endless possibilities of long summer nights'. This set consists of 6 pastel cremes. Perfect for summer! Ready to take a look?

Barely Blueberry is a really light blue that has a lot of white to it. It is very bright and made my skin really red and kind of freaked my camera out, so take my word that this is a nice light sky blue! 3 coats.

Surfer Boyz n' Berry is a nice light turquoise mint shade. This is in the same ball park as China Glaze For Audrey, but this leans more green. Very pretty, I can never get enough colors like this! 2 coats.

 

Lime Cooler is a light lime green. This is really pretty, perfect for spring and summer! Formula was great, it covered nicely in 2 coats.

Banana Peel reminds me of butter! It is a warm yellow, and it feels like sunshine on my nails. This one was a bit streaky, requiring 3 coats for coverage, but I like it a lot, I've never seen a yellow quite like this before.

Tangerine Dreamz is a nice light orange. This one reminds me a bit of Zoya Arizona, but TD is more muted. Another one with great formula, 2 coats.

Strawberry Shake It (I love this name!) Is a pale white pink, we've seen this one before so it's not that unique but it is still a nice color for summer. This one applied streaky and thin, but evened out in 3 coats.

Overall I think the polishes in this collection fit perfectly with the theme. They are perfect for Summer and I think there is something in here for everyone. Even if you aren't a huge fan of pastels, there are a few in here that are way more than your typical pastel that I think will pleasantly surprise some of you! :D

Are you ready to find out my favorite? BANANA PEEL! Can you believe it?! A yellow! I am quite surprised myself. But I just love how it looks on me! Runner up would have to be Lime Cooler, it is such a nice take on the typical lime green, and it's easy to wear!

So people, what are your favorites / which ones do you  plan on picking up? I'd love to hear!

The Gelato Mio collection will be available mid June on jessicacosmetics.com and will retail for $7.50/each.
