Brooke Anderson by Gabriel Cosmetics: Hush Hush and Shine Y'all

*Press Sample*


Hi guys! A couple of weeks ago, I posted the press release for the upcoming collaboration between Brooke Anderson and Gabriel Cosmetics.  This is a new to me brand, and I was excited to try them. Today I have two polishes from that collection to show you!

Hush Hush is a shimmery steel gray.  The shimmer really helps to set this color apart from similar polishes.  It also helps to make it a little more delicate.  I'm wearing 2 coats in these photos, but I could have easily gotten by with just one coat.  It had a very smooth and quick-drying formula.

Next, I have Shine Y'all.  It's a fabulous chrome/holographic glitter topper.  It is packed full of microglitters and larger glitters.  I absolutely LOVED this polish!!

I'm wearing just one coat of Shine Y'all over Hush Hush in these photos.  The glitter payoff was outstanding.  Even though it's in a clear base, it might be possible to build this one up to full coverage.  Can you imagine how blingy that would be?!

Overall, I'm quite impressed with this collection. There is a good variety of colors (not 90% red like some collections), and the fact that Gabriel Cosmetics cruelty-free and 5-free is an added bonus!  You can find the Brooke Anderson by Gabriel Cosmetics online.  The polishes retail for $8.50 each, but as I was looking at the site today, they have a few gift sets that are made up of 3 coordinating polishes from the collection for $19.99, or you could pick up the entire 6-piece collection for just $38.50

So what do you think of these polishes?  I love finding new companies that have outstanding products!

Until next time,

  1. I use a few other products from Gabriel Cosmetics but I have never tried the nail polish. I've really wanted to! The entire collection looks great.
