Color Club Reveal Your Mystery/TK Maxx Dilemma!

Right, I'm pretty confused. I got this set of Color Club polishes from TK Maxx, and according to the packaging it's supposed to be the Alter Ego 'Reveal Your Mystery' collection. I know next to nothing about Color Club because this is the first time I have ever seen them sold in the UK.

Anyway, the colours are all wrong! I looked up swatches of the collection and none of them match the ones in the box. I googled it and it seems a few people have had the same problem, and some people just haven't even seemed to notice. SO WHAT ARE THESE COLOURS!? There's no names on the bottles but they are not the Reveal Your Mystery colours. There's also a random topcoat thrown in there too!


Basically if anyone can help identify them I'd be grateful. Having no named colours will drive me mad. :P

  2. I've seen three different colour combinations in one store! The one I bought today has a slightly darker/more orange pink than the one next to green and a for audrey type colour instead of the topcoat.

    I've noticed they've all got serial numbers on the bottles - I'm hoping they might help to match them up to names. If only I can find a list somewhere!

  7. If there was more than just the Reveal Your Mystery set its possible people have switched some colours around to get the ones they want. I've seen it happen loads, so annoying.

    1. I hadn't thought of that because there were only 3 sets out, but I guess it could have happened. I didn't notice if the colours were different in the other sets. So annoying!

    I have had this same problem, and I even have different ones to you! I have 2 pinks, 2 shades of peach/nude, a green and an almost white lilac.

    I do think that the pale, pale lilac (if you have it) is called "Russian Lilac." I will peruse the links posted to try and find out the others!

  10. I have the same dilemma except I'm also trying to find names for two other sets I got! I might do a post on it as well and give a prize to whoever can name them all LOL.

  11. Alter ego! i think that was a bunch of duochomes. I don't know why they don't package the sets correctly.. they never have names and it's typical it's not even the right collection lol.

  12. I have the other 'reveal your mysteries' set with the green instead of the blue, I thin about three of mine are from that set but law knows where the others are from :P

  13. I have the same problem with a Color Club glitter set I picked up! Going to read that link posted by Linzi Louisa.

  14. I'm seen this same color switch in at my Ross.
    Try posting your photo on the Color Club Facebook page, sometimes Color Club moderators will respond with color names...
    Also, not sure how accurate this is, but this could be the names

  16. Och, there is another TK - Maxx Color Club mistake in "Glitter Vixen set".

    We're receiving :
    1. Sugar Plum Fairy - "Beyond the mistletoe".
    2. Magic Attraction - "Glitter Vixen".
    3. Gingerbread - "Beyond the mistletoe".
    4. Beyond the mistletoe -"Beyond the mistletoe"
    5. Hot couture - "Pardon my french"
    6. Covered in Diamonds - Untamed luxury.
    7. Top coat.

    instead real glitter vixen nail varnishes !
