So I’m feeling better today–no need to call the waaambulance. I don’t know what was up with my horrible headache yesterday, but I’m glad that it’s gone. Last evening I ended up watching the rest of season 4 of Sons of Anarchy and a bunch of episodes of The Walking Dead. Yes, I watch too much TV. Whatever. A few weeks ago I got super excited when I spotted some Cuccio Colour polishes that were from the Precious Metals Collection because they dry to a suede finish. I always lament that I didn’t get a chance to get all the OPI Suede polishes so of course I was happy to find these. I only got two of them to start and the one I have for you today is Cuccio Colour Rose Gold Romance.
Isn’t this awesome? Since it is a matte/suede polish, the formula can be a little difficult because it sets up almost instantly. It’s super easy to overwork it and get an uneven result, but I think that it’s so pretty that it’s worth the extra work. I applied two coats for full opacity. Karine from Nailderella did an awesome post comparing this polish to OPI We’ll Always Have Paris Suede and they are almost 100% dupes.
Cuccio is not a brand that is usually on my radar, but you know I’m going to hunt down the rest of these pretties. What do you think of this polish? Do you like suede finish polishes in general? Thanks for stopping by today and I will talk to you soon.
This is gorgeous! Love the colour and the finish. Would be totally wasted on me though because I like to top coat all the things. That being said, I do like textured polishes which obviously don’t get a top coat. Oh damn. Now I need a suede finish. Pffft.

This is a nice color and I like the finish to it too.

Where do you buy these?!?! This is crazy because I started googling OPI Suedes yesterday and lamenting that I never got any, because that was before I was into polishes. I need to get this one!

I got them at a random beauty supply but I read that you can buy them here: http://www.nailsupplies.us/cuccio/ and also at http://victoriasbeauty.com/search.php?text=precious+metals
I haven’t bought anything at those sites so I can’t recommend them one way or the other. I really hope I can find the rest of the collection because I hate ordering stuff online. Mostly because I’m cheap and hate paying for shipping.
I love the finish on this polish, it’s gorgeous!

I have four of the Cuccio suedes and I need them all! You convinced me. I only have two OPI suedes and the rest have been on my wishlist forever. Sadness. There is something about suede in the fall I can’t get enough of.

I am so going to hunt the rest down on Friday. I hope one of my places has them. If not, I will have to buy them online…which I don’t want to do! But you’re right…we need them all!!!!
I dig this, although the name is a bit misleading to me, haha. I feel like I’d get frustrated with the formula (that’s more on me than the polish), but it’s still looking *Borat voice* very, very nice!
