I'm not a fan of this because, as you can see there was almost no color change whatsoever. I do like the foiley shimmer finish, and the color. I just expected more.

Claire's: Happy/Earthy
Well I grabbed these mood polishes a while ago when I saw a bunch of them one day at the mall. And I have to say - I'm really disappointed. Maybe it is that I'm too cold. Or warm. I don't know. But for the most part these polishes don't change at all. At least the ones I've tried. I got 4 of them, but I only wore 2 and just didn't even feel like trying the other two. I'll definitely get around to swatching them one day. But probably not any time soon.
I also am not a fan of the finish. I know some people like the semi-matte finish (a la Orly Plastix collection) but.... for the most part I don't. Sometimes it really works, but most of the time I hate it. Well, here are some pictures of Happy/Earthy. My favorite of the two I've tried. Though that isn't saying much.

Claires: Neon Yellow
And finally the last one. Thank god! Here's Claire's Neon Yellow.
This is a true highlighter yellow. I just wish there was better coverage. This was 5 coats. I think you'd be much better off using China Glaze's Yellow Polka Dot Bikini or something along those lines.
Claire's: Neon Orange
And here is the orange..
This was 5 coats. Surprisingly good opacity considering the rest of the collection. Still crappy looking though. What would possess them to put that heavy glitter in it? It just looks super lumpy! Not at all glittery. Dumb Claire's nail polish makers.
Claires: Neon Green
So.. I feel like there is a weight on my shoulders, and it is being caused by these stupid Claire's neon polishes. I don't like them. I don't want to right about them, but I feel like I have to because they are at the top of my 'Not Yet Posted' folder. So I'm just going to throw them all up here with little or no commentary. You know how I feel about them. They suck.
This was 4 coats. Totally exemplifies the whole 'when you put a coat on top it takes off the coats underneath' thing this polish has going for it. Crap-tacular.

Claires: Neon Blue
Here is another polish from the Claire's glittery smelly collection. Theoretically I like the color. In actuality it is way to sheer for my liking. Wayyyyy too sheer. This was 4 coats. Again the glitter is crappy and sinks into the polish.
The smell of this one is literally called tropical. It smells fruity, as do all of them. The smell sticks around for a while too, as long as you don't use Seche.
Claires: Neon Purple
Here is the collection I got from Claire's that is comprised of smelly neons. They all have different tropical smells. We'll go from the one that I hate the least to the one I hate the most. This is a nice bright neon purple/fuschia. I like the color itself, but I really hate this collection because of the incredibly crappy glitter they put in it! Look at it! It doesn't look like a glitter polish at all! It only looks lumptastic! Disgust.
Oh look - presumably the look they were going for with the addition of the glitter. Too bad that didn't pan out.

Claires: Pastel Yellow
And the yellow,
Not much to say about it except that, again, I really like the color - but I really hate the formula. Though I'll probably keep it around only because I don't have any other pastel yellows. But I do know that they are out there, so don't settle for this one, because better exist.
