In Love with Mooncat’s FALLEN Collection 🍂🪲 Swatches, Comparisons + Review!

[@madysencallahan2917]

After the Rain totally reminds me of either Bluebell or Fairy Dust from ILNP, but without the holo!

[@PolishedYogi]

I shared those in one of my community tab posts!! Surprisingly it’s more similar to Bluebell (I would’ve guessed Fairy Dust lol) but not to the point that they’re dupes… At least I could justify having both 😝

[@TillieElaine]

I really appreciate that you say when you are sponsored. Some other KZbin’ers say partnered and I think that is very ambiguous. I don’t mind sponsored content as long as people are up front with it. Great video as always!

[@PolishedYogi]

Of course! Yeah I get that partnered almost sounds nicer, but exactly it’s too ambiguous since I’ve seen people use that word but weren’t paid 🤔 (I always assume it’s paid though) - either way, glad you enjoyed the video ! 😁

[@PirateFrodoPotter]

Stunning!!! Congrats on the sponsorship!! The thermals are gorgeous, I’m such a sucker for thermals even though I sometimes wish I wasn’t bahaha. Thank you for sharing!

[@PolishedYogi]

thank you so much!! 😁💕 and hahah i know what you meannn, some thermals i’m like ooof thats gorgeous!! 😝 tysm for watching!

[@Vania99090]

I just received the Mooncat’s mail introducing the new collection. I thought it was beautiful! But still thinking…🧐”nop still have to see this in a more realistic light and comparison”, and then the YT 🔔 and it was YOU!! 😂 I still can’t believe the synchrony! Are you a good witch or a bad witch? 😅 You always manage to appear at the right time! Thanks so much Stephanie for the video, your hard work and the help you always provide to us polisholics 😘

[@PolishedYogi]

LOL i do my best to launch right when the collection drops! trust me if i could share them sooner i would 🤣 i’m happy my video could help!! 🤗

[@claudeyaz]

I would just get the ones that are very obviously different from polishes you already have, because that's the thing about nail polish, up close you can see how amazing and unique they are, but from farther away a lot of these might look similar to something you have... so I think the rule for buying is definitely buy the ones that are dramatically different from what you have, and that after a couple days you still want to buy it, it really helps curb the impulse shopping , good luck friend

[@Vania99090]

Thanks for always working so hard in getting us comparisons. They come in clutch when deciding what to buy.

[@PolishedYogi]

Thank you so much!! 🥰

[@geegusmeegus5535]

Most of the time Mooncat isn't my vibe, but Witch Hazel and both the magnetics in this collection are stunning! Nocturne particularly looks amazing. Having a hint of teal instead of being just another run of the mill black base galaxy magnetic is so gorgeous! Though I wish the base were the tiniest bit lighter so that the teal contrast against the copper shimmer and bronze flakies would really come through.

[@PolishedYogi]

Totally get that! I loved the teal color you see on the first coat, but it does deepen up a lottt on 2-3 :/ I guess they wanted to go with it being more opaque, I imagine if the color was lighter it would look even more sheer?

[@tiffanyluvenia4220]

I bought the whole collection because it gave me the same level of wonder that the seasons of persephone collection gave me, and, to date, that is my all-time fave collection. I'm so super excited to get this fallen collection in the mail and then on my nails!!!

[@PolishedYogi]

yay love to hear that!! they’re just sooo gorgeous, Seasons of Persephone is my fav too! 🥰

Memento Mori is so pretty and unique! 💖

Omg I love comments like this lol 🥹 I’m glad you love it too!! 🤍✨

[@YJOmikansei]

THANK YOU for the swatches and esp getting them out quick + comparisons! i'm wishlisting Witch Hazel, and After The Rain (looks like a sheer pastel version of ILNP Fairy Dust haha) The blurple shimmer is nice but i alr have ILNP Abracadabra and it looks close enough for me 😆 Jewel Beetle looks like a dupe of one of the ILNP multichromes, so striking off that one too i love that the Fall collections are all coming out! taking my time wishlisting everything hahaha

[@PolishedYogi]

of course!! 🥰🥰 and those are great shades to add to your wishlist 🤩 oh i can kinda see that, yeah After the Rains base color is a bit different but they do have a similar shimmer color! just no holo, but thats easy to add lol. yeah this fall has had some beautiful collections!!

[@kristyljohnson5622]

Thanks, Stephanie, for being the first to calm all of our suspense for this collection!! 😁 Funds won't permit me to get them now, so I'm super glad it's not L.E. I was actually surprised that you didn't compare Twilight Sonata and Dark Night of the Soul to House of Hades. Awesome swatches and comparisons, as usual!!

[@PolishedYogi]

haha of course!! yeah i definitely think its worth waiting another month or so till their Lunar Sale! would love to know what makes it onto your wishlist though hehe. and ahh i knowww I ended up sharing a House of Hades comparison in one of my community tab posts, i thought they weren’t that similar but i should’ve included it for reference lol sorry about that! 😅 but yay thank youu 🥰

[@bethanneelion3475]

Complete and utter appreciation for all of these. Mooncat doesn't make a bad polish! But I don't feel compelled to buy any of these. Maybe because my Mooncat collection is huge and these are so close to previous colors they released or others in my complete collection. Witch Hazel is my favorite but it's close to a KB Shimmer one I am actually wearing today. Love your video, as always. Thank-you!

[@PolishedYogi]

ooo is it the KB from summer? i remember that one coming out and wanting it so bad lol! i can see how those would be similar. i’m glad you can still appreciate these without buying them, like window shopping hehe. thanks so much for watching, i’m glad you enjoyed my review 🥰

My Mooncat’s wishlist is never empty so they’ll all compete when it’s purchasing day.

[@AnaMiel4324]

So happy MC sponsored this video with you 😊 Sagebrush is the shade I’m more excited about. This shade is going to break my rule of not buying thermals. I don’t like swampy greens, so this color transition is into my alley. Thanks for putting it first. 💚 Stuff, if you know me which you you think was my absolutely favorite… off course Witch Hazel! ✨ Memento Mori is STUNNING 🩶🧡 and can be pair perfectly with Witch Hazel. After the Rain…. Stop i!… I’m drooling 🤤 You’re right Dark Night of the soul is glowy. I love the shimmer pigment day used fir this one. You made me get so excited this time with your comparisons. Now I have another reason to complete the Inner Apocalypse collection. Still looking for Misery is my favorite color. Which Hazel next to my ADORED Curse of Calypso. What a BOMB are these two together. Thanks for the collage with full swatches. I just loved I discovered your channel when it was just a baby and I enjoy seeing your process. ❤

What a stunning collection! It’s dramatic but I was literally like 😮 when you did the second coat of DNotS 😂….the shimmer is so satisfying intense in this collection. Prob the main reason I’ll hold off on buying anything from this collection rn (besides just budgeting 😂) is because I already have quite a few moody shades! Definitely not close enough to be dupes but still enough where I know if I look at them I’ll be like, okay, DID I need this? 😂 with that said, whenever I can make my next purchase I’m definitely gonna be eying fields of lavender and jewel beetle.

[@PolishedYogi]

of course! oh i see what you mean, but color wise they’re actually pretty different where HoH is a deeper more vibrant cobalt blue, DNotS is a lighter blue, idk if cerulean is accurate lol. theres actually a small flakie in HoH that looks like its the same color but its pretty sparse. i hope that helps!

[@sheree2108]

Thank you! I always wait for your videos for new collections 😁 do you think Dark night of the soul is similar at all to house of hades?

of course! 🥰 yay glad you grabbed those two, they’re sooo pretty 🤩 and ohh i would say lavender fields is like the darker moodier older sibling of TMTYL lol its a deeper purple base and the shimmer is red head on vs the more coppery orange in TMTYL, but the shimmer is stronger in that on (maybe bc it isn't magnetic) i hope that helps!!

Thank you!! I always skip thermals. I don't like the idea that what I put on my nails can change. I want my polish to stand still! 😆But this is a gorgeous collection and my bank account is crying.

[@graceknudsen9690]

Thank you for the swatches! I'll probably get Witch Hazel, Fields of Lavender, Poems for a Harvest Moon and Momento Mori and After the Rain when they go on sale later this year. I'm curious to see how (if at all) the cold state of Twilight Sonata compares to Midnight Rider. And maybe you got something in the PR info but I'm just not seeing how the collection fits the theme? I get more of a 'long dark night' vibe rather than cycles of growth, death and rebirth, but I also haven't read all the official descriptions so maybe it'll make more sense. The polishes are beautiful nonetheless, even if some aren't to my taste, but it feels like they were kind of crammed into a collection. Mooncat is usually great at curating a collection based on a theme and this one just felt disjointed to me.

[@PolishedYogi]

my pleasure! 🥰 those are super beautiful picks!! and for the Twilight Sonata / Midnight Rider comparison, i can see the cold state being similar but mainly for the shimmer color, the more notable difference is the base colors where Midnight Rider is much darker (its either black or a deep blue black) and it also has the scattered holo too, so i would say you can easily tell them apart. yeah this theme is a lot more abstract, i associated the darker colors with the death part and the lighter ones with rebirth generally, but i’m sure the actual polish descriptions will paint a better picture haha! i do get what you mean though about them almost seeming random & disjointed. maybe certain colors could have been swapped for others that made more sense, but it seems like Michelle was just really called to these shades!

super helpful thank you :) they are all beautiful it's so hard to choose! ❤

[@PolishedYogi]

my pleasure ! i knoww, its definitely hard to narrow down favorites!

[@vanessatawnypalette]

I like Witch Hazel and Fields of Lavender. But I think that Witch Hazel looks similar to Rogue - Emma…. So I’ll wait till BF to get Fields of Lavender 😇

[@PolishedYogi]

oh i can kinda see that! i think Emma is a lot more similar to Curse of Calypso with its more pinky purple base (i’m pretty sure i compared those in my Rogue video if you were curious!) but i can def see most people not needing Witch Hazel if you already have something similar lol i am unfortunately weak and need them all 😭 but yay for adding Fields of Lavender to your wishlist!! 🪻♥️

Thank you Stefanie, your videos are always so consistent and informative!! 🫰 I’ve been waiting for a collection drop that I love so I can make my first mooncat order… so excited!

[@PolishedYogi]

aw thank you so much!! 🥰 thats super exciting! i hope you lovee these 😍

[@Bobbieness]

WOW girl you are speed!!! Thank you so much for this. I don’t ever purchase without your swatches and comparisons ❤ Edit: disappointing to see the glass bottles still have insanely thin spots in the corners. I thought they addressed this already but obviously not. Why on earth are they still releasing shades in bottles that could explode.

[@PolishedYogi]

you’re so welcome! i did my best with these :) and they actually did switch to a new manufacturer so these are the new bottles. i know some corners might look thin, but I think a lot of other brands also have thin corners too 😅 i can understand wanting to wait though just to be safe!

[@whitefluffydogs9278]

@@PolishedYogiI was wondering the same thing! Thanks for your reply,y👍🏽

[@Nessysnailnook]

Waiting for a sale but I’m gonna get sagebrush nocturnal and witch hazel. A little bit of all the formulas lol. Sagebrush is just so pretty. I’d wear it either way if it stops changing.

[@PolishedYogi]

Their sale should be in the next month or so, so thankfully you don’t have to wait too long! Those three are such great picks though, ugh yeah Sagebrush is gorgeous !!

[@ChromaCrazy]

Wow! I wasn’t interested in the collection as a whole based on the promos, but after watching your video 😍

[@PolishedYogi]

aw i’m so glad you like my swatches!! thats high praise if you weren’t feeling the promo shots, i feel like those are way more beautiful lol 🤣

[@lisapierce525]

Dark Night of the Soul would be my pick if I was buying. Their price is outrageous imo for a nail polish that’s not any better than indies. Thanks for the video though. I watched yours instead of the other utuber!😂 Have a great weekend!❤ Edit: Congrats on the sponsorship!

[@HenuEnna]

I have looked multiple times at mooncat polishes and almost ordered but I won't now after seeing how they handled the exploding bottles... Also I saw one review on KZbin where they had sent someone old polish and other polish that was way different than swatches or polishes other people have reveived. I don't trust their quality control at all

[@sviolet892]

Wow sagebrush is reeeeeeally tempting me to break my no buy promise 😅 it is gorgeousssssss

[@PolishedYogi]

isn’t it stunning!! maybe you can add it to your wishlist for their Lunar Sale, breaking a no buy isn’t that bad if its on sale at least hahah 🙈

[@Damanique]

Beautiful collection, thank you for the great comparisons! Are these in the new bottles, I wonder? Because the corners still look quite 'thin'.

[@PolishedYogi]

they are! i think when they made their statement in their stories last week or so, they said all new collections will feature the new bottles.

[@missmarie726]

I really appreciate all your comparisons! How do you think nocturne would compare to kelp kingdom?

[@PolishedYogi]

just shared that in my community tab! they’re very different imo

[@yikes9944]

aww, i was really hoping for some ilnp and holo taco comparisons :(

[@PolishedYogi]

sorry! unfortunately couldn’t share other brands with this being sponsored, but i did post some ilnp & holo taco comparisons over on my community tab! :)

[@Misss_Em]

I want some of them but everything is way more expensive in canada😢 most polishes are $20 +. I have a few from moon cat but will have to wait till the sale for these

[@PolishedYogi]

Yes the sale is definitely worth the wait!! It’s a shame the cost/shipping to Canada is always more expensive 😭
