SueSa S15 / Mei's Signatures - Swatches and Review

Today I have a great new polish to show you! It's so sparkly!

SueSa S15 is a MeiMei's Signatures house brand and is labeled Mei's Signatures #15. And it's 3-Free! In most lighting it reads as a gorgeous silvery taupe color but other lighting, especially natural indirect sunlight, you can see that it has a plum/pinkish look to it. It really is stunning in person but the camera (at least with ME behind the lens) couldn't capture the sparkle-factor. And I really just can't figure out the apparent color-shifts because it's definitely not a duochrome. The finish is almost like a foil, but it appears to be full of microgiltter and doesn't remove like a foil finish would. This one is a real puzzler AND a real stunner. It has a normal nail polish smell and not the strong smell I expected so I was pleasantly surprised by that, too.

I guess to sum it up, I have no idea what color it is or what finish it is, but it surely is pretty!

Some photos are with top coat and some are without. The top coat really brings out the sparkle as it dries to a satin finish. It does have a very VERY slight glitter feel that is completely smooth with one coat of Poshe. (Please excuse the red streaks on my ring and pinky finger - from the topcoat I used too soon after the last red polish I applied. Oy.) The last photos show the difference in the color from artificial lighting (not flash) to natural indirect lighting. SEE what I mean? And the photos actually ARE color-accurate.

What do you think of this one? How would YOU describe it? Quite the tricky polish, no?
