Orly Rage

Hmm... Orly is not a brand that I've posted regularly about, but I actually do like it, so I'm surprised I don't wear it that often! I particularly like this polish :-)

Orly Rage




This polish is part of their Foil FX collection, which consists of three polishes - a gold, a silver, and this stunning rosegold. The color is a little hard to describe, but it's a neutral, metallic (but with a flat/satin finish) light nude rose. Whew, that was a mouthful! Here are some pics of it under direct sunlight (ignore my beaten-up cuticles -- they have been incredibly rough-looking lately).

The formula on this was thick and quite fast-drying. I didn't use a top coat, since I wanted to keep the flat finish of the polish.

Zoya Tess

Happy Almost-New Year's! To close out this year, let's go with a gorgeous pink frosty shimmer!

Zoya Tess




I have one word for this polish: LOVE! It is just absolutely gorgeous! Everything about it was perfect - the formula, the application, the color, the glitter, the frost, the wear -- everything! I kinda have a love/hate relationship with Zoya, and this polish definitely falls on the "love" side.

I hope everyone has a fabulous New Year's! Have a wonderful and safe celebration! :-) See y'all in the new decade :-D

Essie Steel-ing The Scene

This color is certainly different -- I don't think I have anything else in my collection that comes close to it. Sometimes, change is refreshing :-)

This polish was pretty sheer -- I had to put on three coats to get it to be opaque. It is a frosty/shimmery gold/silver metallic color. I like it, but not as much as I thought I would. I think I am just starting to get picky in my old age LOL.
