This shade is #105 Club Prive. I'm assuming "prive" is a typo of privé, so the name translates from French to "private club". It's a lovely aqua or turquoise creme. I needed three coats for even coverage and opacity, but the formula was very easy to work with. It had none of the goopy-ness you sometimes get with pastel colors. It also dried fairly quickly as well.
This shade is very similar to China Glaze For Audrey, but if you're a well-trained nail fanatic you can certainly tell the difference. For Audrey is a degree more blue. In this comparison shot Club Prive is painted on my index and ring finger.
I found these at CVS for about $6. Has anyone else spotted these new polishes? Did you get any?
It's such a gorgeous color! Could you also do a comparison swatch with Essie Turquoise and Caicos?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shade! I haven't seen it in my CVS yet:(
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I don't own Essie Turquoise and Caicos, otherwise that would've been the first comparison I did. I suspect they are VERY similar if not identical since both brands are owned by the same parent company now.
ReplyDeleteI love this color! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely shade, and even if it took 3 coats for full opacity I think it was absolutely worth it!
ReplyDeleteA few days after posting this, I did a full manicure with this color. I was in a slight hurry, so I tried to apply the coats a little thicker so I could get away with just two. I managed this with no problem, and it looked just as good! I was being too conservative with my application the first time.
DeleteThis color is so pretty! My first thought was Essie Turquoise & Caicos also. These are some of my favorite colors though, I have so many like it!
