Soulstice Nail Colour

Hi everyone!  I have a review of Soulstice Spa nail color.  I had heard some amazing things about this brand in the past couple of months and wanted to try it out!  
I was sent two colors to try out.  What did I think?

Rome
"A classic Brick Red"
Not so much.  I think of brick red as a darker, more blue based red.  This IS very classic though! I'd call it a perfect red.  Formula was good, no flooding at all, and covered well in two coats.  I don't think you would need a third for any reason.


Hana
"A sheer Fairy Dust"
Hana is interesting.  I was a little bummed when I saw it in person.  I expected more glitter!  It adds a gold shimmer to any polish it is layered on top of.  It's pretty, but I would have liked more sparkle!  I have it layered on top of Rome, Dr's Remedy NOBLE Navy and Dr's Remedy BALANCE Brick Red. I really like how it looks on top of the navy.  It has a good formula and went on very even.

PROS:  Good formula!  I wish I had gotten another cream or two so I could test that, but I think it is good across the board.  At least the two I got were, anyway.  The price is right on as well.  A 5-pack of these polishes (mix and match!) is only $30.  That runs about the same as China Glaze in most places!  

CONS:  None with the polish themselves!  The ordering process is a little strange, though.  You send an email telling them what colors you want, your address and some other information, and they'll send you a payment link.  There are a couple of other companies that do that *ie bettina*, so that's not so strange.  There aren't any swatches on their site though!  No bottle shots either.  That is *almost* a problem for me.    I search for swatches before I order anything, anyway, but if you don't, this could be a problem.  Something to think about!  

Overall:  I want to try more of these!  I had a list made up when the 5-packs were only $20, but I had an empty bank account.  Sometime after the beginning of the year I'll get some, though!  I think they are a good value, and the colors I've seen on other blogs are incredible.  I *need* Dublin!  I would for sure check these out if I were you! 

Which colors do you guys have?  I would love to see them!  Thanks!
