Marc Jacobs Beauty Gatsby (110) Enamored Hi-Shine Lacquer
Marc Jacobs Beauty Gatsby (110) Enamored Hi-Shine Lacquer ($18.00 for 0.43 fl. oz.) is a very light, muted rose gold with a metallic, foil-like finish. It’s almost like a rosy silver-pewter kind of color. It was opaque after two coats, and it had minimal visible brush strokes (but there were a few). It dried down quickly and applied easily. NARS Pastorale (P, $20.00) is darker. MAC Shimmerfish (LE, $16.00) is cooler-toned, darker. Chanel Rose Moire (LE, $27.00) is darker. Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire (P, $25.00) is warmer, darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Marc Jacobs Beauty Patsy (164) Enamored Hi-Shine Lacquer ($18.00 for 0.43 fl. oz.) is a medium-dark, pewter–pale gold micro-glitter over a dirty golden taupe base with a metallic finish. It was mostly opaque after two coats, but there was a slight translucency. The polish was slightly thin but dried down faster than the average polish. Formula X Alchemy (LE, $12.50) is warmer. Revlon Rich (P, $4.99) is greener. MAC Sinfully Sweet (LE, $16.00) is warmer. Chanel Quartz (LE, $27.00) is less foil-like. SpaRitual Slate (LE, $10.00) is darker. Zoya Jules (P, $9.00) is similar. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Marc Jacobs Beauty Cora (170) Enamored Hi-Shine Lacquer ($18.00 for 0.43 fl. oz.) is a depened, reddish-brown with lighter rose micro-glitter and shimmer. It was fully opaque in nearly one coat, though I applied two for swatches. This one applied beautifully and evenly. It dried to a flatter finish than the other two, though there was still some shine. Zoya India (P, $9.00) is redder, glossier. Essie Toggle to the Top (P, $8.00) is redder. Le Metier de Beaute Urban Dweller (LE, $10.00) is darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

Patsy is beautiful! I yet have to try any MJ polishes but they sure look great.
I really like quite a few of them – they are a little more unique than I’d expect.
Wow, Gatsby and Patsy are gorgeous ! I like how they are metallic neutrals, but it’s not over-the-top, perfect for every day and the holidays.
Agreed!
These are all lovely but Gatsby is one that makes me go weak in the knees.
It is pretty!
Oh gosh. I have been SO in love with Gatsby ever since Marc Jacobs first released their beauty line but I have constantly talked myself out of getting it. I think this may have pushed me over the edge. My birthday’s coming up soon, I’ll use that as an excuse to buy it!
I had been hemming and hawing over it for awhile too, ,lol!
I’m loving Cora and Patsy! I have Le Charm, and I have to say MJ makes my favorite nail polish formula!
Nice! 🙂 Le Charm is so pretty.
Very elegant! My favorite here has to be Cora.
It’s so pigmented!
Patsy! I want it. Guess I have to get one of the dupes, as it’s a lot of restrictions mailing nailpolishes these days. Not complaining, security first.
Gatsby is also very pretty.
Oh, yes, the restrictions on perfume/polish are tough!
Gatsby is definitely my favorite of the bunch. Beautiful color!
Agreed – very pretty.
Patsy is my favorite here! I haven’t laid my hands on any MJ nail polishes (or anything from the brand for that batter), but this one is mighty tempting!
I really like the shimmery shades in the range!
I would suggest OPI’s ‘Number one nemesis’ as a dupe for Patsy 🙂 (though Number one nemesis seems to be a little bit darker)
Thank you, Massiel!
These are very pretty and subtle. Very classy for the holidays.
They are rather holiday-esque!
These look beautiful nail polishes – very elegant and completely wearable with many different outfits. Marc Jacob’s products are excellent.
I’m impressed by his nail range – the colors are more unique than I expected.
Oooh, Cora is unique!
I love the finish on it!
The first thing I did when I saw all of these was 🙂
It looks like it’s nail lacquer season for me since I’m still on lipstick restriction because I want Gatsby and Patsy…lol! Not to mention that I’ve wanted to try out a Marc Jacobs nail lacquer for awhile now. The dupes aren’t helping either since I also want Guerlain’s La Petite Robe Noire, Revlon’s Rich, NARS’s Pastorale, Formula X’s Alchemy amongst Illamasqua’s Mélange… My wallet is about to start weeping again. Thanks a lot, Christine! j/k! Lol!!
LOL! Sorry… and hope I helped? 🙂
Oh, you helped all right…helped my vanity and just nearly murdered my wallet! LOL! I’ve got 7 nail polishes headed my way and somehow I don’t feel guilty about it. Temptalia truly does tempt… ^_^
lol!
