Quick Review & Swatches: SinfulColors Full Throttle Collection
I’ve been dabbling in textured polishes lately, and while I’m not sure I prefer them over a smooth, shiny finish, they definitely add some variety to my manicures. If you’re looking for some textured polishes to try on a dime, perhaps you’d enjoy the Full Throttle collection from SinfulColors for Summer 2014. These have a “rubberized” texture that looks like subtle, small dimples on the surface.
Burn Rubber is a safety-cone orange. It reminds me very much of an actual orange (like, the fruit) because of the bumpy texture.
Race Rubber is a deep, bold burgundy shade. This one was a bit tricky, because the shade deepens with each layer, so you have to be pretty precise each time to get an even application.
Rubber Ball is a vibrant, mid-toned pink. This shade applied with full coverage in just one layer.
I’m not sure if this texture is what I think about when I imagine “rubberized.” I think it resembles concrete more, no? Either way, the shades are vibrant and still maintain a shiny finish. I found it much more suitable to apply in thin layers, otherwise the polish has a hard time settling into the texture and drying down.
Find these shades and the rest of the SinfulColors Full Throttle collection at Rite Aid for $1.99 each throughout July.
What’s your favorite variation of nail polish texture?
Adore Rubber Ball!
Rubber Ball is very pretty!
that dark berry shade is cool
So cute! I love that orange 🙂
Burn rubber is gorgeous!
Nice swatches of these, I don’t think I would like textured polish.
interesting texture!
Great swatches!!!!
Rubber Ball is sooo my color!!
Gorgeous shades. Would you believe I haven’t tried any textured polishes yet
It always takes me forever to jump on nail trends!
Def more like concrete but the shades are pretty!
I haven’t tried any of the rubberized textures yet. I think it would look like a ‘fail’ on me.
I love texturized nail polish’s concept but I have only one of this kind (totally matt).
These look like a nice compromise as they’re still so shiny… Rubber Ball is cool and I like Burn Rubber too but it isn’t my go to colour.
Have a nice day!!!

Yes I like that these are still shiny! Thanks for stopping by!
I have to admit, I’m not a fan of textured polishes. These look pretty!
The orange is my favorite of the bunch!
Burn Rubber is gorgeous!!
They are very pretty shades !
Can’t wait to try theses…especially Rubber Ball…great swatches!!
Thank you! Yes, Rubber Ball is sooo fun 🙂
I am so not into these type of texturized nail shades. Very nice swatches, though!
I love them all!
What an interesting texture!
Rubber Ball looks very pretty!
Great swatches!
The colors are nice, but I do not like the look of the texture.
Like others and like you said, textured polishes aren’t my favorite though in a glitter polish it’s OK. I like the orange shade. Gotta try Sinful one of these days
I like most textured polishes, though I usually prefer the glittery ones. Not sure I’ve ever seen this version of ‘rubber’ finish, but now I’m curious!
I’m usually just a fan of the regular nail polish finish, I’ll like the textured finish of other polishes for a minute but then just want to get it off!
That Burn Rubber would make a perfect pedicure color for me!
Burn Rubber is sooooooo pretty and fun for summer. I always go for dark shades like race rubber but I think I need that orange for sure. Beautiful and such cute names. lol
