Noel is a discontinued polish and I would describe her as a steel blue metallic with silver shimmer.

Kotori is such an interesting polish, I dont think this was ever ment to be an opaque polish, you might be able to get it opaque if you did maybe four coats? While this is a sheer polish, the formula is good, no running or pooling and I did two coats for my pictures. You can see that Estelle is the same kind of base but Estelle has way more shimmer and its a finer particle.

Noel is gorgeous, a really lovely steel blue with silver shimmer, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Noel also stamps. I was mega lucky to snag this and Holly from the collection. I never managed to track down a bottle of Izzy. This collection seemed to be quite a limited release.

Third mani shot shows one coat of Kotori, this could be layered over black for a more opaque look.
