Sorry this is a little late. Hopefully you're old/lazy like me and spend Friday night at home LOL! Anyways, this evening I have the Barielle Keys Collection up for your viewing pleasure. I have swatches and review of all 6 colors that are inspired by paradise!

First up is Miami Heat, which is a "sheer red jelly" polish. The shade of red very much reminds me of Zoya Sooki. It looks quite buildable in my swatches, but I can promise once I get some mess under my nails you'll be able to to tell how sheer it really is LOL.

I did 3 coats of Miami Heat. Application was smooth and easy to work with. Dry time was nice, too. I would polish your nails carefully with this polish, it's kind of a bleeder when it comes to cleaning up with a brush :[

This polish is awesome and screams SUMMER! Hawaiian Sunset is a "shimmery orange". The orange is a warm, bright orange with tons of golden shimmer. This was the color I was most excited to try when I received this collection and it did not let me down!

I did 2 coats of Hawaiian Sunset. Application and dry time were both great to work with. No issues or complaints here!

Paradise in the Tropics is a "deep fuchsia" creme polish. No offense to Barielle, but this is kind of a boring color to me haha. I feel like I've seen this color often and I have a few polishes in this color from other brands. But I guess it's always a great go-to all year.

I did 2 coats of Paradise in the Tropics. It gave me no application issues, was easy to work with, and dry time was great.

Barielle Panama Pina Colada

Panama Pina Colada, which currently is making me crave a fruity drink in a pineapple, is a "creamy, soft melon yellow". BTW, Canary Melon is apparently a thing and I'm guessing that's the color it's inspired by. All I could think of was non-yellow melons so I had to Google. Or maybe it's not, who knows! I DIGRESS. This is a light yellow creme polish, it's kind of in the middle of China Glaze Lemon Fizz and Sunshine Pop.

I did 3 coats of Pina Colada. I would of been okay with 2 but there was some uneven areas that needed smoothing. Dry time was alright, I recommend waiting between coats.

This is similar to Paradise in the Tropics, but this is a hot pink creme. A great staple polish for the summer! Don't you just love bright cremes you can throw on in a hurry when you're too lazy to pick a polish? Or is that just me hahaha

I did 2 coats of Barefoot in Bermuda. Application was smooth and easy to work with. Dry time was great and gave me no issues.

Topless in St. Tropez is a "creamy pink with a hint of coral" with some shimmer. With the name and color of this polish all I think of is a topless Barbie doll hahahahhahahahah. Okay, I'm weird... anyways. This color reminds me of bubblegum and I think it could flatter a lot of different skin tones! And the shimmer adds a great touch!

I did 3 coats of Topless in St. Tropez. It was an easy to work with formula and gave me no issues with dry time. :]
