Good morning dolls. I'm back to what I really know, nail polish. Today I have a very large post for you featuring 14 polishes from the new Sinful Colors Kylie Jenner Trend Matters collection. This is a huge collection people! I had to consult the Sinful Colors website to see just how many subdivisions there were and number of polishes were in each one. It appears that there are 3 sub-collections; Pure Satin Mattes, Velvety Demi Mattes and King Kylie Collection. I have polish from the first 2 sub-collections I listed. King Kylie is a 2-step Sinful Shine collection, so if you like those gel polish type products you probably want to try these out. But the other 2 sets really impressed me. It's been a while since I've worn any Sinful Colors and I know they can be a hit or miss with formula/finish, but these were all kinds of awesome. Color me a huge fan of the semi-matte and matte finishes. The Pure Satin Matters are available at Target locations for $2.99 each and the Velvety Demi-Mattes are at Walgreens also for $2.99 each. So since this post is so huge, let's jump in and get started.

*purchased by me*
Silhouette is a soft lavender with subtle gold shimmer. It's a beautiful, springy color. But it's also reminiscent of those sunwashed pastels that everyone loves for the summer. Fab formula and application. I used 2 coats and no topcoat.
Kurtsey is a gorgeous cornflower blue with gold shimmer. This was one of my favorites from this group. Formula and application were wonderful. I used 2 coats and no topcoat.
Karma is a lovely shade of mauve, still bordering pastel. I used to think mauve was a really "grandma" shade but now I don't think that at all and rock this shade often. Just like the others this one is full of beautiful gold shimmer and dries to a semi-matte finish. Wonderful formula and application. I used 2 coats and no topcaot.
Another purple that I didn't think I'd love but totally did is King Size. I'd say this is a medium toned purple with gold shimmer. This one screams Mardi Gras to me - add a green accent nail and you're good to go! But really, I am no purple lover but shades like this are making me change my tune. Fantastic formula and application. 2 coats and no topcoat.
And the last one I have of the Velvety Demi-Matte collection is I Klove You. It's a deep chocolatey brown with gold and red shimmer. Such a nice rich color. This one will be perfect for the Fall. Again formula and application were both awesome. 2 coats (you could possibly get away with 1) and no topcoat.
The other polishes I received were part of the Pure Satin Matte group. These had a more matte-like finish, yet still weren't chalky or dry looking. Perfectly matte. The first one I have to show you is Kitty Pink, a baby pink with subtle shimmer. This is a nice clean, pastel. Formula and application were ok. This was the only one that I felt was a little chalky and streaky, but as you can see from my nails it's almost unnoticeable. Just thought I'd note that. I used 2 coats and no topcoat.
Koral Riff surprised me. Not because I was surprised to love the color, it's coral - my bae. I was surprised that it had the softest touch of shimmer and I hadn't noticed it until I was taking pictures! I honestly thought this was a creme up until that point then it was like whoaaaaaaaaaaaa. Actually it's described as a "tangerine pink" and I like that description. Formula and application were nice. 2 coats and no topcoat.
Fuchsia U! is a matte fuchsia pink. It's pretty bright and pretty cool! This one also has an almost unnoticeable shimmer. Sadly the shimmer hardly shows on the nails at all. The formula was a bit thinner than any of the others. I used 2 coats and still have visible nail line. No topcoat.
Miss Klaws (funny name for a Summer polish) is a berry red shade. I do like the color, but wish the name were more season appropriate. So I'll probably not use this until Winter because my brain functions in strict boxes of what goes where. This one had a thin formula as well and you can still see my nail line after 2 coats. No topcoat.
Korset wiggled it's way into my heart! It's a fun purple full of blue shimmer. I really liked these colors together, they played nicely. Formula and application were both aces. I used 2 coats and no topcoat.
The last one I received to review was Cosmos. It's a cobalt blue with jelly formula. No shimmer here, unless I completely missed it. I really liked this color, but didn't care for the sheerness of the formula. You know I totally dig jelly polish, but I guess with a matte finish I want full coverage. I used 3 coats and no topcoat.
I have 2 more polishes to share and these are ones I bought at the store. I came across the display in Target and was drawn to a few colors I hadn't received. Actually since I genuinely enjoyed the majority of the collection I think there's 1 or 2 more I may go back for in the near future. I'm coming for you V.I.Peach and Haute Koffee!
So I'd seen Kool As A Kukumber on an instagram account and I knew I needed it. I love me some milky, pastel, minty green. This also has fabulous sparks of gold shimmer. It's a beautiful and refreshing color in a fun finish. I used 3 coats and no topcoat.
Konstellation was the other shade I bought. It's a shimmery duochrome with a soft matte finish. I saw green, purple and fuchsia in there. It was much easier to see in real life than to capture with my camera (isn't that the way it always works?). Anyways, fabulous color, fantastic formula. Applied like a dream. 2 coats and no topcoat.
