Mattese Elite Cosa Nostra!

Ricky's NYC was kind enough to send me some of their new Cosa Nostra Mob Collection to review. This is their latest collection which features six "mob themed" colors: Goomah Comare, Vig, Whack, The Boss, Consigliere, and Capo. 

This is my first time trying a Mattese Elite polish. I have heard about this brand and I was excited to try them out! Ricky's NYC sent me three colors: Capo, Whack, and The Boss. I decided to put them all in one post, something different from what I am used to doing! I hope you like it.

First up is Capo, my favorite of the three. Capo is a grey creme with silver shimmer. It applied very well, I only needed two coats. I followed it up with Orly Won't Chip.

Next up is Whack, my second favorite. Whack is a plum colored creme. Also went on well, and could be a one coater but you know me, I used two. It also dries super shiny, these photos are without top coat!

Followed by my least favorite of the three, The Boss. I am really disappointed with this one. I was looking forward to the shiny gunmetal look of it only to discover its a streaky frosty polish that bubbles! You can totally see every brush stroke and I got at least one bubble per nail. I think its an awesome color, but the streaks turn me off completely. Top coat did not help either.

Overall I think these are decent polishes for the price. I am looking forward to trying more of them before I form a final opinion. I am actually making a trip to NYC this weekend, and Ricky's NYC is on my list of places to check out.

Mattese Elite Cosa Nostra retail for $5.99 each and can be purchased in Ricky's NYC stores as well as on their website by clicking HERE.
