Aren't they pretty and fun??? I love this collection. Here is how VIE describes the colors:
Step on a Crack: Duochrome color. Earthy green with iridescence that shifts from bronze to reddish gold.
13: Duochrome color. Warm pink with iridescence that shifts from bronze to red to purpleish.
Bad Luck: Duochrome color. Pinkish purple with iridescence that shifts from purple to blue to teal.
Black Cat: Duochrome color. Deep blackened blue with iridescence that shifts from red to copper to gold.
I swatched them for you, too... over Crazy Primer, bare skin, and then foiled.

It is SO stinkin hard to capture the color shifts on camera!!! I really love Bad Luck and Black Cat (I think it's just that I really love purples!) Okay, so... I'm trying to do comparisons, to really "review" the colors, per se, although I'm not very good at it [[yet]]. Let's see... Step On A Crack is similar to Ireland, but Ireland is a more yellow base with very light shifts. 13 is far more pink than I Love You (I don't own any other released pink duochromes). Bad Luck, a first glance, reminded me of a duochrome version of Heaven's Mirror (from Markie's Video Game Collection) which is a medium purple with turquoise glitter - but Heaven's Mirror is NOT a duochrome; it is similar to Mischief, which is a more muted purple with warmer shifts; it is also VERY similar to Lafayette, which is a darker, cooler purple color with very similar shifts (almost a dupe). Black Cat has a couple colors it is similar too: Luxuria which is far more blue and silvery; Full Moon which is an ever so-lighter, more blue color, and more silvery/shimmery with teal specks [not a duochrome, either]; Haunted (from the 2011 Halloween Collection) which is FAR more rosy. Overall, these colors are gorgeous, and next time there's a Friday the 13th - I would totally check these out!!

Did you get the Friday the 13th Collection while it was available? Will you be purchasing it next time it's up for grabs? And do you like this comparison-style review/swatching? Please give me some feedback in the comments or on my facebook page - when people read my blog and give me feedback, it makes me want to write more!!!
