Three Warm Shades from the Kokie Green Line

Sample provided for review
 
Continuing my month of Kokie Green, today I have three warm hued shades new to the line and which the brand generously sent me for review. Left to right: Sweet Dreams, Call Me, and Prima Donna.

Sweet Dreams is a pale peachy pink shimmer that's on the sheer side. At two coats on my skintone, it's definitely "bare but better", adding sparkle and shine while letting my natural nail tips show through. I bet it would make a great French mani, though I didn't have the patience to try on this particular day.

At three coats of Sweet Dreams, there's a hint of visible nail line at some angles, and the shimmer looks even more sparkly.

Call Me is a creme that sits between deep pink and purple with a hint of brown in it. Woodrose, maybe? A good basic, flattering to many skintones, and opaque in two coats.

Regular readers know I had to try Sweet Dreams as a topper. I added one coat of it over Call Me on my middle to pinky fingers, leaving my index alone for comparison purposes. I liked the effect quite a lot.

Prima Donna is a rich-looking berry red shimmer. I used two coats for my swatch, plus clear topcoat to bring out the sparkly shimmer even more.

My favorite of these is Sweet Dreams, due to its versatility. I can wear it alone or use it as a topper to add shimmer to other shades. It reminds me of Iced Out, one of my favorites from the regular Kokie line (swatched here), just a touch warmer toned, so might work even better than Iced Out on warm base colors.

These shades are available at select Meijer stores and online for $8 each on the Kokie website.
