I recently purchased one of those Living Social deal packages. It was $12 for a $25
CoastalScents.com credit. I looked around their site and found these polishes which were on sale for 99 cents each. Or I could get the whole set for $25. Guess which option I picked? Yep. I got the set.
For the price I wasn't sure what to expect. I have to say these polishes surprised me - I like them. Almost all of them needed three coats. But the third coat dried to a high gloss and the colors are great. The polishes also dry quickly. The biggest drawback to these polishes is the length of the brush. The brush and lid are really short and took a little getting used to.
"Coastal Scents has established the COAT Collection; an array of gorgeous
nail colors from delicate neutrals and vivid creams to rich metallics
and dazzling shimmers. The collection also includes a protective base
coat and a shine intensifying top coat for salon perfect nails after
every application. All 27 polishes are formulated to dry quickly and to
be chip resistant for long wear." - Coastal Scents website
Let's move on to the swatches. This is not the entire set.
Morning Glory is a wonderful bright, bold blue. The name suits it well as it does remind me of Morning Glory flowers. It is probably my favorite polish of the set.

Cosmic has a black base with green and gold flakes in it. It is my least favorite of the group. It just seemed to come out streaky and the flakes didn't want to lay flat.

Bottom line: A great polish doesn't have to cost a lot. These polishes are proof of that fact. Coastal Scents polishes can be purchased for $1.99 at
CoastalScents.com. But right now they are value priced at 99 cents each.
These polishes were purchased by me and all opinions given are my own.
