INM | West Coast Vibes Collection Swatch & Review

Press Sample

Hello and welcome back! Today I have a big ole post for you. Hence why its a little late compared to most of my posts that are published first thing in the morning! Anywhooo today I am showing you the INM West Coast Vibes collection that is now available. It consists of 10 polishes, most of which are creme so lets go!

WATCH NOW

Here is a way to see all of these polishes in action! I filmed this video differently than my more recent swatch videos. I felt like people would benefit from seeing these next to each other so I am hoping this view in the video will allow you to compare the polishes you might think are similar. :) Let me know what you think!

So Nude & Nancy

2 coat(s)

A nude shade that pull a bit more yellow on while in the bottle it looks like it would pull more pink. 

This formula was really nice which ya'll are gonna hear me say repeatedly because well it was, and most of the polishes were the same. It was a nice consistency and the brushes were great which was nice because it totally allowed for nice cuticle lines.  This particular shade pulls a bit to much yellow for my skin tone though.

Late Summer Bronze

2 coat(s)

A dusty brown shade. 

This is a great dusty brown. I see it really being a good polish for fall art bases. Again this one did also have a nice formula.

Sultry Lips Keep Ships

2 coat(s)

An off white that could also be considered a greyed creme. 

I love the idea of having a nice off white. I know many who love to use off white for art bases, so I think for that this would be a great polish to have. Plus these polishes are less than $5 so to have them for art is great an not as hard to rebuy when you are low! ;)

Brunch & Bloodys

2 coat(s)

An orangey toned brown. 

Even though the formula in this one was good it was weird at the same time. When I first applied this polish, which I did on on Instagram in my story, it had random black in it. I am not sure what was up with that. I went forwards with it and just continued to paint that nail and as I went over it it did disappear so I'm not sure what was up with that. Later when I used the polish again it didn't do that so..... Maybe it need to be shook more???

Autumn on the West Coast

2 coat(s)

A charcoal grey that pulls a bit purple. 

This is a nice grey to have that pulls a bit more of a purply vibe which is fun. Again great formula. I did do 2 coats but you can easily get away with one on this one.

Wine and Dine

2 coat(s)

A very dark eggplant shade. 

The first coat is sheer and has a very red wine look to it. The second coat covers that up though and it turns into the deep rick eggplant shade.

Camillionaire

2 coat(s)

A charcoal grey filled with a blue/green/purple shimmer all through out it. 

I really like this one! Great formula and its a lovely polish with the shimmer. The only bad thing is, is that the purple shimmer you see in the bottle really doesn't show on the nails.

Picnic at Night

2 coat(s)

A perfect cool toned grey. 

This is just your standard grey that everyone needs to have on hand, and it had a really nice formula.

As Teal As You Can Get It

2 coat(s)

A cool grey that is a very greyed out teal. 

I was fearing this was just another grey but I really liked it. Its a teals grey which is a nice change up. Ha, I was even out there other day and saw a Fiat I think it was about the same color! It really is a nice shade and a nice formula.

Blue Eyed Girl

2-3 coat(s)

A light/bright sky blue. 

I like the color of this of course but out of all of these polishes this one was the least impressive. It was thin and a bit more watery which lead to streaks, and it rolling towards the sides of my nails. It almost took 3 coats but depending on how you do it, it can be done in 2.


Overall I like this collection for being practical in a good set of cremes for art. They aren't really all that exciting. That being said if I want/need a grey this is a great formula so I would totally grab for it. As for this being a spring collection... I'm a bit confused. I really think its more of a fall/winter line wouldn't you say? What shade was your favorite? If you can to check them out more on the INM site you can HERE.

Happy Painting!
