(left to right) Harvest Moon, Argo, Foie Gras, Hook and Line
First up, Harvest Moon. This is really a color that I would not typically pick BUT for 75 cents, why not? It is a really pretty copper color with golden micro-glitter.
The formula on this one was great. It took two coats to reach opacity and i had zero issues with streaking or anything like that.

I don't really love this color on my skin tone but there is no denying that this is a gorgeous polish. I thought that It would had been glittery but on the nail it seemed to lean toward a glass fleck. I think one coat of this would look really pretty on top of another color, so I see some experimentation in my future!
Next up is Argo. This is one of my favorite polishes in my entire collection. It is a stunning kind of moss green with golden shimmery/ pearly/ microglittery action! When I first used this polish I was kind of "meh." I thought it was a pretty shade of green, but nothing spectacular. Then I went outside. Photos will really not do this justice. This polish has such dimension. The sun light really makes it come alive. Two coats to full opacity. I will say this, I own two bottles of this polish. One of them was really thick, and dented really easily. You had to put aside a long time to get a good manicure. My newer bottle that I just got had 0 issues. I don't know if that was an actual formula problem or if someone had opened the bottle in the store or something like that.

This next one is another one that I would have never really picked up, but I am glad that I did. I think this will be a great fall and winter color. The only way I can think to describe Foie Gras is as a taupe-y purple. It is really creamy and for some reason makes me crave something chocolatey . You could probably get by on one thick coat but I used two.

This last one was a surprise favorite for me. I was afraid that it would be too light for my skin tone, but it turned out absolutely beautiful. Hook and Line is a pearly light grey. The pearly-ness really caught me off guard because it looks like it would be a creme in the bottle. I seriously couldn't get over how pretty this one turned out. It takes two coats to reach opacity.

Overall I love the quality of all of these and all the colors are stunning. I am pretty sure I am going to have to get my hands on the rest of this collection. Which were your favorite Hunger Games polishes?
