You may or may not have seen this set in your local Ulta recently. Its a new set of minis called Toe-Tally Matte!
Within the set are 4 matte colors plus a mini Ulta top coat. Here are the names of the colors: Pink is Sunbathing Beauty, Green is Beach Bum, Blue is Surfer Girl, and Yellow is Bananarama. I was excited to buy these, they retail for $10 and I had a $5 coupon at the time, so they ended up being $1 a bottle lol. Three out of the 4 are a shimmery matte, the green is a flat color. It reminds me of Zoya Mitzi.
The pink, green and yellow seemed extra thick to me. They were tough to work with. Application was uneven and if I wasnt careful, bald spots appeared. It took 3-4 coats for a somewhat even appearance for the those 3 colors. I might try to add some thinner to the bottles and try it again. The blue applied well. I only needed 2 coats.

Here you can see how uneven and lumpy the polish looks!
I was curious to see what these would look like shiny. So I added a layer of top coat. I think all 4 colors look much better now. Although you can still see a groove in the pink, the yellow is super shimmery!
Overall I would say, for the $5 I paid, it wasn't a bad deal. I love mattes, and I didn't have a yellow or this shade of blue in a matte polish. I also LOVE the Ulta mini bottles. Much more than the regular sized bottles, which IMO are clunky and awkward.
Have any of you purchased this set? If so, what were your results?
