Friday, May 8th, 2009 KO Liberty: Mint Green Matte Goodness
Today is a happy happy Friday and it's all thanks to Knockout's new shade, Liberty. This one is hot, really hot! Described as pastel mint green matte that dried to a satin with three thin coats.
Well all know mint green shades are on fire right now, and I think Liberty will break us from our matte nail polish phobia. It's the perfect Spring or Summer shade for mani's and pedi's.
My Application: There was a little bit of streakiness at first, but it all seemed to dry out evenly in the end. You could probably get by with two thicker coats.
And now for the comparison.
Liberty is much greener than For Audrey, and just a pinch bluer than MAC's Peppermint Patti. If your swooning over mint greens lately, this is a must have!
Liberty is now available online at Knockout Cosmetics and retails for $22 for a huge bottle (.56). Have a wonderful weekend!

Thanks for the comparison Steph. I just love Knockout's polishes. I can't wait to see the oxblood (?) color. They are so expensive. I hope someone else comes out with the same colors and finishes.

Hi Karla,
Aww, thanks so much doll! :)
Hi Tessi,
Hot is an understatement!
Hi Lucy,
No problemo! Oxblood is def a fall color that I'll be previewing next week :) Zoya's releasing a LE MatteVelvet collection for Fall that's close to Oxblood but I haven't seen any spectacular colors like Liberty thus far. But, Matte's are just coming back so it's definitely hopeful.
