Bellacious is a beautiful medium pink that to my mind is similar to watermelon pink. It would be a lovely shade for the toes (and yes, the tips) for summer.
Paradise Sand is a pretty neutral that works as a french manicure shade as well. It looks very clean on the nails. I want to wear this on days when I don't want any fuss or color on my nails, but still want them to look professional and polished.
Mauve-Elous is obviously a mauve polish that might look like a mom or grandma polish shade to some, but it doesn't really look that dated. It's a warm shade that would look great on just about any skintone, I believe.
This is probably the ugliest shade I got from my haul. My hands looked sick or old with this color. It's probably because it has a lot of copper/orange undertones, and my hands just look horrendous with copper/orange polish. I was tricked by the word "brown" in the product's name. Too bad.
Sun Kissed is a very tricky color. It is lavender shimmer with gold speckles in the bottle, but under the shade it just looks like any ordinary beige polish. I swear, the lavender color just simply disappeared. Under direct sunlight, however, the lavender hue showed up, but basically just a watered down version of the color in the bottle. The gold specks simply ate up all the lavender color in the polish. It looks very clean on the nails, though.
Lastly, Magnolia Majesty is a light frosty pink that was kinda streaky, but I was able to fix it with additional swipes of the nail polish brush. The classic color and finish would make this a great wedding shade, though. Looks very clean and pretty on the tips. This would make a beautiful pedicure color as well, especially for spring.
There you have it, the swatches of all my twelve Misa polishes!

That was a great haul! Do you have a site that you buy your polishes from?
Interesting content.
Just wanted to share some information that may help busy professionals caught up with work and who have less time to maintain their nails. You can try out gel nails which are now becoming a hot favorite as they are natural looking even without nail tips and the best way for nail enhancement. Also, if you are allergic to those strong smelling chemicals which you can experience with acrylic nails, then you should use gel nails as these are odorless.
However, when you are planning on gel nail application, make sure you approach a nail salon or a nail artist who is well versed with gel nails and is properly trained and mastered in gel applications. This will save you from problems that can arise with improper gel nail applications.
Just bought my first Misa in Mauv-elous. It looks darker than your swatch and I love it - it makes my nails look longer (honest!) it's also very rich looking. A great office appropriate color. It also makes my skin look tan! I'm sold on Misa - 2 days, no chips!
