Maybelline Limited Edition: Boho Gold

I received this amazing multi-chrome polish from the amazing Liz (Beauty Reductionista) a few months ago and it certainly is a treasure.

Boho Gold is a limited edition polish from Maybelline's US Fall 2012 collection so I don't imagine there's an Australian release on the way which is really a shame - fingers crossed I'm wrong!  The beautiful metallic Boho Gold has a distinct warmth to it and it is predominantly warm vintage gold which flashes bronze and green as the light hits at different angles.  It reminds me a little of Chanel's iconic Peridot but Boho Gold seems warmer to me.  Peridot is one of the few Chanel polishes I own so I'll dig it out for a definitive comparison sometime soon!

What do you think of Peridot's warmer cousin?
 
 That's all for now!

    This does remind me a lot of Peridot! Why does the Northern Hemisphere get all the good Maybelline LE releases? :)

      My thoughts exactly :(

      When I googled the 2012 fall collection I sighed in disappointment because it was a good one - up there with OPI and China Glaze releases. Oh well, at least we got the recent glitters :p

    Very pretty! Maybelline really did a nice job with that collection.

      Absolutely Kaki. See my comment above.

      Sometimes we miss out down here unfortunately so I'm grateful to receive this shade from the collection - I think it was the standout too!

    There seems to be a lot of Peridot's cousins lately! :)

      Yes, I think I have an OPI version somewhere too!

    It clearly was meant to be because it looks fabulous on you! It's more gold and less green than Chanel Peridot but close enough. :) Yay!
