Can anyone speak to the finish of 23 Flavors for me?
I have difficulty with reds and have been debating this one for quite awhile. But I am nervous it's going to be my least favorite finish: that sort of satin, metallic look that's reminiscent of 80's/90's spandex stretch pants. I don't really know how else to describe it, just that I have hated every polish I have ever worn in this finish regardless of the color. And I am apparently unable to identify it through online swatches and media alone.
First image is the one that's selling me – thumb polish looks so juicy, plump and smooth.
Next two images are the ones giving me pause. But I can't tell if it's just the length/shape of the nails that are throwing me off?

I think it could have to do with lighting, nail shape and maybe even top coat. I sometimes will put a glitter grabber on flat polishes to plump them up.
To answer your question. The finish is kind of metallic/pearlescent, at least IMO. The 2nd and 3rd swatch pictures are what it looks like on me. I have very large and curved nails like the second swatcher.
I have it on right now and it does not look juicy like pic 1 to me
