BB Couture For Men - Regular Guys

update: For you guys who are international, OverallBeauty.com ships international!!

Are you guys ready for the newest BB Couture For Men collection called "Regular Guys"? This entire collection is a hit, from start to finish.


Cowboy
BB Couture For Men - Cowboy
2 coats, no top coat

Mmm, who doesn't need more taupe polishes in their collection? This one is your classic dark taupe creme.

Here it is compared to OPI - You Don't Know Jacques!

Coal Miner
BB Couture For Men - Coal Miner
2 coats, no top coat

Omg you guys. Do you see this?! How gorgeous is this color!! I don't even know how to describe this color. A deep taupey/slate color with blue, pink and silver reflects?!

Blue Collar
BB Couture For Men - Blue Collar
2 coats, no top coat

Okay, I know this line is "for men" but this color reminds me of Cinderella's dress. This is a periwinkle blue with white gold shimmer.

Golf Pro
BB Couture For Men - Golf Pro
2 coats, no top coat

*drools* A murky green with silver and light green shimmer and flecks of black glitter!! Seriously you guys!! I don't know how she manages to do it but Cindy always comes out with amazing new greens.

Mariner
BB Couture For Men - Mariner
1 coat, no top coat

This is a ONE COATER! This one is a rich deep forest green. Do be careful with the application on this one as you can see the brush strokes.

Bullfighter
BB Couture For Men - Bullfighter
2 coats, no top coat

A red I like! WOOHOO! This one almost had a jelly-like quality to it which I personally love. My swatch of this one is a tad bit more orange based than it appears in real life. Think of a deep raspberry with gold and red micro-shimmer.

The formula on all of these was a perfect two-coat formula minus Mariner. Mariner was a tad bit thicker, but that also let the formula be a one-coater.

This collection is available on Overall Beauty.

Alexa, thank you for adding this beautiful collection of colors. I am glad it is labeled for men, at least I can "legally" order the entire collection.

Great to read they ship international, otherwise I will come swimming just to put my hands on these beautiful colors.

As usual your manicures are superb. Thanks for the postings and the pictures

Wow, Lex! You do an amazing job on these reviews - and this one is awesome!

I just have to say that even though BB Couture labels this as "For Men", we all know that anyone can wear any color of polish they like. But, what I really appreciate is that they are working to get men to open up their minds a bit and try something new a interesting.

I agree with you that a couple of these colors might be stretching it a bit for some guys, but there are also some that would be fantastic on men, if they can just get off their "macho" pedastel and give it a try!

Thank you for the great blog!
