NYC In A New York Color Minute Quick Dry Nail Polish - City Samba Trio

Press Sample


     That title was a mouthful, huh? Don't let it throw you off! I have three shades from the newest NYC collection called The City Samba. New York Color says, "These high pigment colors are infused with a hint of shimmer for brilliant, tropically-hued nails that won’t fade. The nail strengthening formula is infused with magnesium, iron, copper, and calcium for beautiful nails and specifically formulated to dry in lightning speed time to a dazzling, high shine finish. The shades: Amazon Green, Carnival Red, Copabanana, Jacaranda Flower, Ocean Blue, Palm Tree, Sweet Melon and Tropicoral."












Amazon Green

light minty green
heavy silver frost shimmer

two coats alone
no top coat












Tropicoral

bright coral creme

two coats alone
no top coat













Sweet Melon

golden peach melon creme
silver shimmer

two coats alone
no top coat







     These polishes were a breeze to apply. I didn't have any issues with application. I would suggest applying them quickly rather than slowly. The formula is very true to the name and they dry within a few minutes. Just look at that shine! I was so surprised by how shiny they are on their own. 







City Samba Clouds

     To create this look, I simply used three brush strokes to make the ruffled cloud look. Once one color was dry, I moved on to the next. I finished it off with top coat to smooth over the edges.

     Because these polishes are so highly pigmented, I only needed one coat of each. This is actually my first experience with this brand and I'm so pleased with the results.

  2. Tropicoral is so pretty on it's own! I love how bright it is! But, what is up with the frosty greens this season? It would have been much prettier flat!

  4. I think the frosty green would have been great for spring. When I read the press release for it, I thought it would have been a nice jade green.
