Koh Colours! Seduce - Swatches and Review

Today I have another Koh to show you - Koh Colours! Seduce.

According to Koh Colours! all of their polishes are infused with topaz to give them a hard and lasting finish. Koh is a Dutch cosmetics company. Seduce, part of the Koh Colours Sexy Collection, is a really pretty purple, no wait...blue, no wait...purple! It doesn't behave like a duochrome, but I think I'm going to call it that anyway. In some light it's a gorgeous sapphire blue and in other light it's the perfect violet purple. The satiny finish lends itself well to this phenomenon, too. I don't mean it dries to a satin finish, though - it dries to a nice gloss. But the finish is a bit tricky too. It almost reminds me of a frost, but it is without the visible brush strokes. The application wasn't as easy for me as the other Koh polishes I've tried as will be evidenced in the photos. But it wasn't bad. Since it was on the thin side, I had to be careful of pooling. Thin coats is the key with this one. I used 3 very thin coats and no top coat for the photos.

These polishes are a bit harder to come by for those of us in the States, but they can be ordered directly from the Koh Colours! website if you fancy a bit of a challenge. It's certainly doable. The shipping can be a killer though. Thankfully these were obtained via a swap with a sweetheart of a nail polish addict in Europe. They retail from €14,95 to €19,95.


Have you tried Koh yet? What do you think of it?
