*Disclosure: Press samples – I received these polishes for free in exchange for swatch photography. All reviews and opinions are my own.*
Hello! Today I’m here with swatches of the latest collection from Whats Up Beauty – their Geodes Collection. The Geodes Collection consists of six polishes that pair with an eyeshadow palette that is also part of this release. I have swatches of the six polishes, two of which are their new gem-encrusted formula.
Polishes are currently available on the Whats Up Beauty site for $12.75 individually or $68.85 for the set of six. If you’re interested in the polishes and eyeshadow palette, you can get the whole set for $99.99.
That’s it for the details, so let’s get into it!
Rhodonite
Rhodonite is described as a dusty rose creme with matte finish.
Rhodonite had a smooth and even formula. It was a slightly thicker creme that dries relatively quickly (although not too quickly such that it’s difficult to apply).
Shown is one coat.
Agate
Agate is described as a metallic pink with small duochrome flakies that shift from pink to orange.
Agate had a smooth and even formula, although you do need to wrap your tips well. The polish felt a little less opaque at two coats so I went for three.
Shown is three coats plus glossy top coat.
Crystal
Crystal is described as a gem encrusted polish with a sheer purple base with duochrome shimmer that shifts from blue to violet.
Crystal had a smooth and even formula that was self-leveling. It dries a bit gritty, and had some visible nail line at two coats so I went for three.
Shown is three coats plus glossy top coat.
Earthlike
Earthlike is described as a gem encrusted polish with a heer brown base with duochrome shimmer that shifts from green to purple.
Earthlike had a smooth and even formula, although again I needed to wrap my tips a bit more thoroughly. The polish dries a bit gritty.
Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat.
Clay
Clay is described as a khaki brown creme.
Clay had an incredibly smooth an even formula. It was the slightest bit jelly-like in formula, but was very opaque and dried glossy. The polish is a bit less green toned in person.
Shown is one coat plus glossy top coat.
Peridot
Peridot is described as a duochrome that shifts from green to blue.
Peridot had a smooth and even formula, and I recommend going for medium coats. For this polish, I again needed to wrap my tips a bit more thoroughly.
Shown is two coats plus glossy top coat.
These polishes are all a gorgeous take on the classic light/medium neutrals palette. Let me know which ones caught your eye the most, and thanks for reading!
XOXO,
