My nerdery knows no bounds: 2012 Fergie nail polish collection
I'm something of a nail polish fanatic, so imagine my delight when I learned that one of the things Fergie was going to do when she partnered with Wet n Wild earlier this year was release a nail polish collection. From the moment I saw the first promo pics, I was in love - and now, four months later, I've *finally* tracked down all of the colors.
So now, I must squee ♥
And a couple of bigger pics from other angles - it's kinda cool to see all the colors together =)
These pictures were shot indoors in natural afternoon sunlight. I'm not the best photographer in the world, but hopefully you can actually *see* the different hues and glitters. If not - I'm including a description underneath the photos.
Cookies to everybody who recognizes the title font, LOL!
A mix of silver micro glitter with holographic bar glitter in a clear base - one of my favorites! Absolutely gorgeous when layered over a solid base color.
A pretty standard shimmery silver shade.
A shimmery gold shade.
A mixture of golden micro glitter and medium-sized gold hexes in a clear base - not quite as easy to apply as New Year's Kiss, but definitely a way to add some bling to any mani :P
A mixture of holographic/multicolored micro glitter and medium-sized pale pink hexes in a clear base.
Blue, green, gold, and silver medium-sized hexes in a clear base, similar to Flossy Flossy.
A teal cream that pulls green with a hidden shimmer.
Neon green with a hidden shimmer
One of the most-talked about pieces of this collection, if not the outright standout star - holographic/multicolored star glitter in a clear base. This is definitely the one everyone in the nail polish world is after, LOL.
A gorgeous deep sea green/blue micro glitter with a duochrome flash to gold - perfection in a bottle, and one of my personal favorites ♥
A shimmery navy blue with a subtle silver duochrome flash
Deep blue and purple micro glitter in a clear base, another of my personal faves!
A shimmery deep purple.
Purple and gunmetal gray micro glitter in a clear base, similar to Dutchess.
A fairly standard violet purple cream, named for Fergie's little sister =)
Neon pink, and one of the first a picked up when I saw the display - I have a weakness for pinks, LOL, and this was named for one of my favorite Fergie singles!
Purple micro glitter and medium-sized silver hexes in a clear base.
My personal standout of the collection - every picture I've seen of this shade makes it read black to me (this one included), but in real life it's an amazing burgundy shimmer with a duochrome gold/purple flash. Think merlot - Ferguson Crest is the family vineyard ;)
Red micro and medium-sized hex glitter in a black base - a great excuse to go vampy for Halloween!
A beautiful deep red shimmer - the most classic color of the collection.
Red micro glitter and small holographic round glitter in a clear base.
A really fun gunmetal gray micro glitter with holographic round glitter in a clear base, similar to No Place Like Home.
A deep charcoal/gunmetal gray shimmer.
This is the other most-talked-about shade in this collection - it's black micro glitter and medium-sized gold hexes in a clear base. Black micro glitter is pretty rare on its own, much less mixed with a different size/color of glitter.

I may have to pick up some of these as Christmas presents - I WILL FIND A WAY TO SUPPORT OUR ALUMNI.

These Fergie polishes were ridiculously hard to find, at least in my area - I found these at Rite Aid, in a display that looks like this.
These are part of her Take the Stage/Center Stage makeup line with Wet n Wild, the rest of which is to be released next January, so hopefully the nail polishes will become easier to find the closer we get.

I love seeing your polish army. Tis pretty spiffy and you've got me eying a couple to see whether we still have them in stock. And by a couple, I mean far more than. Which ones got called up to the big leages of semi-permanent displays? (I could, I suppose, wait til Tuesday and look at the wall but that's cheating.)

According to this post, there will be 14 on the wall display in some areas (I only found five at, like, two of the stores I tried this weekend). It looks like those are A001, A002, A003, A004, A007, A008, A009, A012, A016, A017, A021, A022, A023, and A024 - which were the original 14 on the endcap display, if memory serves.
Definitely going to have to pick up some backup bottles myself of some of these! =)
