    Not too fond of this formulation. I had to put 3-4 coats on to get an opaque finish, and even then it was streaky. The formulation is quite different from other CG polishes I own. Would not...

    First, this is misnamed. It really should be called "Hematite", because it looks exactly like polished hematite, and nothing like black diamonds. It's a very deep grey which is nearly but not quite...

    Hearing about this brand of polish, I was excited to use it. This polish can be tricky. It's hard to make thinner coats because the brush can be fussy and drag the polish instead. If this were to...

    OMG... its SHEER... WTH? I got this for my birthday and only just got around to trying it... I'm really displeased. I despise sheer polish and I wasn't expecting it with this one.

    I do love the color but... 2 coats gives me the desired color, but its streaky. If go for the third coat then is almost black. I can only appreciate a shade other than a generic black when I am...

    This is pretty hard to describe. It's like silvery, gunmetal shimmers on a blackish dark blue background. Really love the color. But it's three coats, which is kinda a lot for me

    I got this instead of Black Leather and I really love it. It covers nicely, leaves a nearly-black finish, and has lots of beautiful glitter. I bought a second bottle for my sister bc she loved it...

    I have tried several black polishes and they just don't look right on me, but I really really love them. So instead I thought I'd try this, which is like a deep charcoal. I ABSOLUTLY love it! The...

    I was looking for a gray polish, and this turned out a little darker on my nails than I expected, but I like it. I ended up with 4 coats to get the darkness I wanted. The color reminds me of...

    I liked the colour in the bottle and expected to be an opaque, deep charcoal with a little shimmer. I had to use about four coats to get the coverage that I wanted. As stupid as it sounds, I didn't...

    Pros: Its a pretty shimmery charcoal color. I receive many compliments on it. Formula is great. Only need one coat :) Cons: The name is deceiving, I bought it online thinking it would be black but...

    This color has just been included in my fall/winter nail polish rotation and I love it. It's a very pretty and different color. It's more charcoal than black. In the light you can see midnight blue...

    I was a bit dissapointed in this one. It's not black at all but a charcoal and the "diamond" is a slight shimmer. Application was great, 4 coats to full opacity. If you want a sparkly black I...

    I love this color. I've been looking for something like it for some time - not black, not silver, but a dark charcoal grey with a bit of shimmer. Perfect. Two coats is enough for opaque cover, and...

    This is a very interesting color--I think of it as graphite. It pretty much reads as a soft black, unless under sunlight, where it looks a bit more grey. This polish noticeably loses its shimmery...

    I guess this is what I thought "Baby it's "Coal" Outside!" would be like. This is a grey-black with silver shimmer. It takes a few coats of this to become opaque, but it has a lovely high-gloss...
