Revlon Matte Suede Emerald City

Oh man... I'm so tired. I can not wake up today. I have to post something where I don't have to write much because I know I wouldn't make any sense otherwise! And I completely skipped posting yesterday... Not enough coffee in the world. Better post the polish before I start typing gibberish....


Revlon Matte Suede in Emerald City. Nothing very matte or particularly suede about this. It's a nice color, a blue toned green shimmer, but I don't care for the finish. If it didn't say it was matte on the bottle, you probably wouldn't even know it was matte finish. It's one of the shiniest mattes I've ever seen. Takes a long time to dry, too.

Looks pretty nice with topcoat, though. Brings out a faded, dusty look to the green.


If I can get up the energy soon I have those awesome new Nicoles I wanted to post, plus the new Winter Nubar collection showed up last night and I have a whole lot of other fun colors that I need to be coherent to post.... And, by the way, Red Bull does not give you wings, it gives you heartburn.

  1. I really don't like the finish of this one, but it's very pretty with top coat.

  2. I like this color, but I prefer topping it with either a regular top coat, or a matte top coat. I agree with you that the polish itself isn't matte enough. It just kinda looks like dead glitter :/

  5. I've been pretty disappointed by the "drugstore" brand "mattes". Good thing I have ChG matte top coat.

  6. Sorry you are feeling blah . I passed by this one, and I agree with you. The colour is pretty, but it isn't very matte or unique either. I did get the matte white from the collection, so I am looking forward to trying that one.

    And LOL re: Red Bull. I have never tried it, because it just seems like pop on steroids. :)

  8. Without a top coat it doesn't look that good, but with a top coat it looks amazing!! :)

  9. Red Bull is the caca! The following is NOT a paid presentation! LOL. Truly, for an energy boost with no crash? Try those little 5 hour energy drink things. They only taste a little better than RB, but they're also small enough to hold your nose and toss back in one gulp. My friend owns a small business and when staffing issues force her to work multiple 16 hour shifts in row, she swears by those things. Me, I'll stick to Diet Coke.

    eta: the verification thingie just called me a slyze. lololol

  10. I think you might have gotten an off bottle since mine is extremely matte.

  11. I just bought the four Revlon Mattes. This is my favorite. It isn't at all a matte or suede but I still love the shade.

  12. Admittedly this is the first matte polish I have tried. But it's really matte for me, like Christina said.
