Cherry Baby. Red with red glitter. This is a cool cherry red with sparse red glitter. In the bottle it look like it might be similar to China Glaze Ruby Pumps, but it's really not. You don't usually see the words 'subtle' and 'glitter' used together, but this is a very subtle glitter. It's not in-your-face sparkly, but it gives a little added interest to an otherwise normal shiny red creme.
Cruisin'. Light orange creme. This is a light orange shade that's not pastel. Would you call this shade 'Creamsicle'? It's creamy orange, very pretty. I did have a bit of trouble applying this one- it was a little streaky and needed four coats to become even. The color is worth it, though! I love how this looks!
Hot Spot. Red-Orange with gold shimmer. This one fits quite well with the hot rod theme- it reminds me of painted-on flames! It's a medium saturated orange that leans very red and it's covered with a decent amount of subtle golden shimmer.
Little Deuce Coupe. Soft yellow creme. This is a really lovely shade of yellow, I don't have many like it in my collection. Like Cruisin', it's light but not totally white-out pastel. This looks lemony to me- lemons and ice cream. This one also gave me some application issues, but not the ones I was expecting! Yellows are normally thick and streaky- this wasn't. It was thin and fairly streak free, but it was sheer so it needed four coats to cover the bald spots. And then, of course, I had to go and stick my finger in it before I took the picture so that's why it looks all funky and lumpy... Sorry... >.< 
Lowrider. Frosty purple. Low-ri-der drives a little slower.... This lowrider is also very frosty. It's a frosty metallic purple that looks like it could be a close relative of the long-discontinued OPI Pike's Peek-A-Boo Purple. For a frosty metallic, the brushstrokes visible after application are minimal. It has a really nice smooth formula.
Nitro-Injected. Frosty medium blue with shimmer. Another frosty metallic, but this one has little speckles of shimmer embedded in the polish. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice color, but the only things I like frosty are my beverages and my snowmen. I just don't think frost finishes flatter anyone's hands- they age even young hands. Despite the frosty finish, I really like this color itself. Sparkling beachy blue. The shimmer flecks this has are interesting... I don't have another polish like this... Though they kinda sink into the frosty metallic polish when it starts to dry and make it look speckled. It would probably look fine with a topcoat.The formula on these was decent. The two cremes gave me a bit of trouble, but the rest were problem-free. The formula has three-free tendencies, often being thick and runny at the same time. One interesting thing to note about BB Couture polishes is that they claim to be 4-in-1- base coat, treatment, color and topcoat all in one polish. I always use a basecoat/treatment and a topcoat when I wear these, but it's interesting to note that these polishes dry to a very shiny finish even without topcoat. Some shades are shinier than others- all of these pictures are taken without topcoat. I'd still recommend using one- I can't live without my quick dry topcoat.
Overall, this is a really cute collection. All of the colors have a fun retro feel to them. A good varitey of shades and finishes as well- not all cremes or all shimmers. Two cremes, one shimmer, one glitter and two frosts/metallics. I love to see a variety of shades and finishes in any collection and this one is spot on.
One thing I mention every time I review BB Couture for Nails polishes is still true- they're not afraid of colors. They're not afraid to be adventurous. They're not afraid to play with different finishes and textures. I adore that about them. They've done pretty much every color of the rainbow in a variety of finishes. They have glitter galore and they also have multiple greens. Of course, that makes me a happy camper. But, honestly... For such a small color range (I can't imagine they have over 200 shades... I've never counted but it seems fairly small) they have the most variety and some of the most interesting and unique shades I've seen. I say it over and over again... I love variety. It's okay to have a million light pinks and reds as long as there are other colors to balance it out, and BB Couture does just that. They balance. They have something for everyone. That makes me very happy.
Like I mentioned above, the Hot Rod collection is limited edition and available exclusively at Overall Beauty. They can be purchased as a set or individually. There were only 100 bottles of each color made, and I know that only 60 or so remain of certain shades.
