Cirque Colors is once again teaming up with Nordstrom on a monthly pop-in release! The Nike Women Pop-in was a huge hit so I was excited to check out this collaboration- the Cirque Colors x Nordstrom Poolside Collection!

The Cirque Colors Poolside Collection will be exclusive to Nordstrom and will only be available through June 28th. It was inspired by luxurious days, balmy nights and everything you need to have a good time by the pool! Think luxe pool parties, private cabanas and classic Hollywood glam. I used Cirque Colors Liquid Laminate top coat for the photos below. Let’s take a look!

Cirque Colors Rita is described as a tomato red creme. ONE coat! The formula was good, thick in a nice way that makes it easy to apply and control. This is a bit brighter and less squishy than Cirque Colors Doyers if you’re wondering.

Cirque Colors Santorini is described as a medium cobalt blue creme. Two coats. The formula was good, a little on the thin side so just take care not to overload your brush and you won’t have to deal with pooling. This does have that slightly skunky smell certain cobalt and some purple polishes have but it isn’t strong and goes away once it’s dry.

Cirque Colors Monte Carlo is described as a sky blue creme. Two coats. The formula was good, very similar to Santorini.

Cirque Colors Cabana Capri is described as a cyan blue holographic. Two coats. The formula was perfection, not too thick or too thin and went on super easily. I need all the Cirque holographics now, this is lovely! I really wanted to get sun shots of the holos in this collection, but this was the week mother nature was having.

Cirque Colors Julep is described as a mint green holographic. Two coats. The formula was the same as Cabana Capri. This is for sure a must-have- if you can only get one in the collection, get this! Love it! I did manage to catch some sun when I was wearing this one at a later date (hence the change in nail length).

Cirque Colors Summer Soiree is described as a pink and coral sprinkle glitter. One coat over Santorini. The formula was good, not too thick or thin and with a good glitter density. I wanted to pair this with another color from the collection but I also think it’d look really cute over grey!

Overall, I think this is a fab collection that has me ready to lounge by the pool with a nice cocktail. I imagine I’ll wear the creams often as summer pedicure colors and the holographics are going to get a ton of wait on my nails this summer- I love them!

If you’d like to pick up any of these shades, they will be available online and in select Nordstorms (shown below) through June 28th. Once sold out, they will not be restocked.
