CoverGirl Glosstinis in Scalding Emerald

Scalding Emerald is part of the CoverGirl + Hunger Games Catching Fire collection. I purchased this at Target for $3 around the time the movie came out.

Note that Glosstinis are definitely in the mini bottle category at just .11 ounce. I didn't have too much trouble with the brush, although it was short as mini bottle brushes tend to be.

I did need 3 coats to cover my visible nail line. At two, it was very apparent in the sun that I didn't have complete coverage.

If you are interested in seeing the rest of the collection, KarenD has swatches of all 9 shades in this collection.

Seared Bronze was the first shade I bought from this collection, and this weekend I picked up four more at Target since they were just $3 each.

You can really see the different shades in this macro shot. It's gorgeous. Some bloggers are saying it's a dupe for OPI Warm & Fozzie from the Muppets collection, but I think this one has more depth, especially in the shade.

Seared Bronze is used in the District 2 (Masonry) look as well as District 7 (Lumber).

I am thinking I need to look into getting all the colors in this collection since I'm such a fan of the movie.
