Nubar Chocolate Coffee Bean


This is from the new Chocolate Truffles collection by Nubar, and it's gorgeous. A deep, cool coffee/chocolate hybrid with red shimmer shot through it. Absolutely lovely. Once again, application was easy; this is two coats and no top coat.

You can see Helen's pictures of the Milk Chocolate and Raspberry Truffle shades from the collection over at Nice Things. Raspberry Truffle and Chocolate Coffee Bean do look quite close to my (admittedly not a nail polish expert) eye; if I had to distinguish I'd say the red shimmer in Coffee Bean is a little more subtle  - the Raspberry Truffle has larger red flecks suspended in chocolate.

The Chocolate Truffles collection is available here at Beauty Shed, and each polish costs £8. I bought a couple of other Nubar polishes from Beauty Shed last week, and shipping was fast and CS was good.

  1. Really nice shade - Brown can sometimes look a bit fal, but this is lovely!

  2. This shade looks good on you. On my screen, it does a little aubergine-y.....could be due to the red shimmer, I guess. :)

  3. Hi Mizzworthy - these browns are really pretty.

    Hello Witoxicity - it does look a bit aubergine-y under some lights, especially when the shimmer catches artificial light. :)

  5. Hi BB - Thank you! The colour coverage of the Nubars is excellent - it's not a brand you see a lot in magazines, but it's excellent.
